Oh God I hope they won't put it on the roulette, that would be a total douche move by Playdom.
Argh ... for the time interval since their last patch, I expected more bug fixes. They haven't even addressed any of the bug found in this wiki's "Known Issues" page.
Well played. Congrats.
Im the reverse. I was previously at the nerf this thing camp. Now, im at the not OP camp. I got used to fighting agents with the cube and know how to play against it. Im more afraid of Quicksilver than the cube honestly. I do have the cube but I still have to use it this pvp season because my strategy revolves around something else that requires other set of gear. During the previous pvp, I used the Power Cell+Void Generator combo to counter the debuffs of the cube and it worked wonders.
AI is dumb. Use heroes and gears that are AI-friendly. Perfect example would be Ares during the previous season. His 2 passives does not require any algo/logic on the AI's part and he rotates his skill usage very well.
I know the feeling. I used to play the game "straight" inluding the pvp. Then I noticed that at the higher tier pvp, either the agents are uber cash spenders or are sandbaggers and it was really very hard to get to Adamantium playing "straight". So I joined the sandbaggers group(by using Power Of Four) and it worked for me. Be warned that the more respectable members of the wiki are against using this strategy hahaha.
I will be blunt and honest. At level 102 and having only 18 heroes, you will have a very hard time getting to Adamantium. Doable, but very hard. You will have to make up for your hero quantity with armory bonus and your attack strategy.
I suggest to not focus too much on your defense team for now, I doubt any combination you put in defense would give you a win in Vibra or Ada. I have most of the heroes now and my armory bonus is very decent and yet I only get an AFK win around once out of every 20 afk battles. Instead, focus all your armory on your offense team and try a strategy that could outlast opponents with better bonuses.
Its a shame you didn't get the cube. Do you have the Emerald Prism? Again I should stress that with your current rooster and level, there is no way you can out damage agents in the Vibranium or Adamantium league(They will have mostly all heroes and have very high armory bonus and will be using LE items like Scroll Of Angolob and Warbringer Axe). Your strat should focus on survival and trickery. Of your current rooster, I suggest using Spider Woman and Loki. Their debuff will turn your opponents advantages against them while you slowly eat up their health. You should focus fire on 1 hero that is the most threat then move to the next. Do not switch targets unless your new target is almost out of HP.
Once you figure out your strategy, do lots and lots of attacks to compensate for your AFK losses.
Or you can just wait around 3 months for her eventual release and save yourself the frustration that is pvp :D You can also try out what the others have suggested and see what works for you.
Is it just me or did they bump up the difficulty for Kurse?
I faced an agent with Synthetic Cube, Fantomex and Daimon Hellstrom. Reality Hacking + Misdiredtion + Skittering Darkness is TOTALLY annoying. AI was stalling until the agent can use Atom Smasher. I won in the end but it was a really hard and long fight.
Since this is an SO Lockbox, Im pretty sure we'll all have Loki by the end of the SO. But the data gathered in this experiment will be useful when opening the next PVP Lockbox Sabretooth since LB for pvps are very limited.
Lvl 10 -> Bronze elite bonus
Lvl 11 -> Silver elite bonus
Lvl 12 -> Gold elite bonus
Lvl 13 -> Diamond elite bonus
Lvl 14 -> Vibranium elite bonus
Lvl 15 -> Adamantium elite bonus
Oh my bad. This bug has been around since I don't know when. Seems like a pretty even fight though judging from both of your total HP. If anything, it should have made the fight easier since an agent should be more powerful than a hero :)
I hope she doesn't get nerfed too hard because of this complains. There is only one change that needs to be made to make her not OP. It's the proc rate of her counter-attack.
Level 135 agent currently in Adamantium rating of 1399, arranged in order of most appearance:
1. Ares (40% chance to stun my ass. Its more like 70%)
2. Rogue
3. White Crown Phoenix (Despair doesn't unlock her Phoenix Fire anymore)
4. Cyclops
5. World War Hulk
6. Rescue
7. Elektra (Her L9 is very effective since it has stealthy. Don't let ur toons go below 30% health)
Someone from other thread suggested to use Quicksliver so you'd always get the first turn. You can then use a distress call or items like the imobilizer to stun the whole enemy party :)
