    Yeah, grinding for T4s sucks. That's why you need to get an alliance that can win them from the AQs instead of you having to get them on your own from the T4 arena.

    I'm semi retired now.
    I still play, but I only log on for a few minutes on some days (to get the rewards) so I'm not in an alliance anymore.
    The auto-play mode has me playing while I drive, though.

    It's so sad to me that the game that got all of the character rights sucks, while Future Fight is stuck without the Fox properties.

    I just started playing this game again and I'm at a point where I need the tier 4 basic to uprank my 4 star champions. Any tips?

    Play the T4b arena every time it comes around. It will get easier when you get better players. I used to have to win 80 matches to get the T4b, now I only have to win 38.
    Keep moving to better alliances. The higher the alliance, the more T4Bs they earn from AQs.

    Yea my alliance sucks atm. I'm only 30k rated and my top champions are both 4 stars 3/5 rank. I have another 4 star that I will get to rank 3 soon, just need the gold. Should also win another 4 star when I fully explore the Act 3 story quest.

    I've been saving the units I earn, have close to 650 right now. Anything you recommend using them for?

    Upgrading your masteries is so expensive lately, that's the only thing I'd spend them on.
    That or refills for energy if you're trying to beat a temporary quest before the deadline or refreshing your top champs if you're trying to get a T4b before that quest expires.

    I just realized you can sell your tier 3 for tier 4 fragments as well. It's not much. But, will slowly get you there.

    Yea that was my other approach. It kinda sucks because I'm at the point where I need tier 4 fragments to be able to play the next quests and beat them which will earn me better rewards. I wish I hadnt quit the game for a good while cuz it feels like I'm swimming upstream trying to upgrade my heroes.

    New update looks cool. Who's your favorite hero? From the ones I own it's Ultron. He's not even my highest rated (3 star maxed out), but he is a beast and I love how he regains health. Of the ones I don't own, I would say Luke Cage who I always have trouble beating.

    my favorite personally is symbiote spider-man. spidey was always my favorite growing up and this version is bad ass. but in the game.... probably wolverine. he's a tank. always regenerates health.

    Since joining this better alliance I've gone from (3) 4-stars to (6) in about 2 weeks. Also really close to FINALLY being able to have one of those 4 stars reach Rank 4 ( I have 2 TB4s)

    Yea I had forgotten how much of a difference that can make. It's not perfect by any means but the officers are pretty involved and actually kicked some ppl out for not participating at all in the last round of AQ and AW.

    I'm still about 2000 shards away from my first 5-star. Apparently this new update will make it easier to get T4s both basic and class.

    yeah. may still be slow but we will at least have more control. plus the top 3500 alliances get a t4b every week i think.

    so have you gotten into the prestige race yet?

    JohnCalvinTM Well-Known Member

    wasn't sure how to tag you so quoted post. are you aware of the prestige system yet? kabam really doesn't do a good job of letting people know how important it is but if you're planning to play long term you'll be much better off if aware of prestige early.

    prestige is the average of your top 5 champs with no synergies or masteries. it's only affected by ranking up and adding levels to signature ability.

    the reason it's important is AQ. your alliance has a prestige which is the average prestige of all it's players. AQ difficulty is determined by prestige. a low prestige alliance may do map 5 and every opponent be about 2k. a top alliance can do the same map and every opponent be 8k. points in AQ are based on how difficult the fights are.

    so prestige becomes a tiebreaker. my alliance completes map 5 every day in all 3 groups. do does another 2 or 3 hundred alliances. so the alliance with the better prestige scores more points and ranks higher for better rewards.

    the really tough part is that the best champs for fighting do not necessarily have the best prestige. scarlet witch and star Lord are 2 of the most useful champs but have low prestige. Howard the duck is top 10 is prestige. Phoenix is 3rd and most people think she sucks.

    so as you progress you should weigh usefulness vs prestige when determining what champs to rank up. you can Google prestige calculators. there are good resources on the line app to find prestige. the kabam forums has a list in the announcements page. if you plan to play long term you should look into it. a lot of alliances have a minimum prestige for membership.

    Looking to take my 4th 4 star to rank 4 gotta decide between Deadpool (X-force), Hyperion, Loki and Juggernaut. Deadpool is the only duped out of those. Already have Nightcrawler, Wolverine X-23 and Hawkeye at rank 4. I'm leaning towards Hyperion but Juggernaut is really good on defense and he syncs with Nightcrawler.
