2* Wolverine, lvl 454 base (boosted to 573)

These numbers don't look totally insane until you consider the fact that he's just a baby champ, at lvl454 pre boost.

I'm not sure if he's usable (his green is ok, 12 AP for red may as well be infinity, and the heal is...a passive heal) but it does look like the 2* are scaled to insanity.

Red at 12 is tough, but that is a bomb. My currently boosted to 588 5* Jean Grey only does 46,664 AND under certain conditions feeds the enemy four 2,441 attack tiles.

Have you gotten 2* Hawkeye and Magneto over to 5 yet? those two are always my go-to for DDQ nodes in the past.

Magneto isn't very interesting. Mine is lvl499. He has 108k HP. His blue is just tile damage and his purple is unchanged. His red does 43k damage at 4 covers (you don't want it at 5 covers because it goes up in cost).

Hawkeye lvl478. He has 78k HP. His blue is unchanged. His red is 24k AoE at 5 covers. His purple is 4 2-turn CDs that do 17k each.

I don't remember what they look like boosted. I think everything scales 2 or 2.5x roughly?

Tapping their name takes you to the roster screen, there you can check everything.

But that just shows you the stats at base, not god boosted. Unless I'm not understanding what you mean.

The answer is no, you can't view boosted stats for opposing characters without entering a match.

You can't view your own boosted stats unless you're on the character select screen.

i'm ascending everyone personally, but I'm only max-max ascending 1-3 so far. I've been getting 14 covers for a 4* dupe and then ascendng those, so at least right now, i have a surplus of slots.

Someone was asking about Doop somewhere...hoo boy.

I'm running him all passive, with Chavez/Colossus/PX, and he's just a straight-up better Colossus. With AC's extra match damage boost adding on, plus PX's extra damage reduction, he's a completely unstoppable tank.

Have you tried Ascended Doop/5ProfX/Ascended Rogue. I guessing that would work well. I'm almost done with Ascending Coulson, then I'm planning on Doop next, but I need 40 covers.

I haven't, but that sounds like a pretty good idea!

I'm thinking there is a team where Doop denies AP with his passives and increases power cost for enemies. If it stacks with Prof X's increasing power costs and Rogue continually tanks and denies even more AP, that would be a great sim team.

Oh, hmm. I guess you could spec him that way. I think that might actually be TOO much defense, though!

I liked using him with AC's passive and Colossus passive stacking for match damage, with PX and Colossus passive stacking on defense. He took almost no damage.

Anyone who lived through the 3* years should know the pain that is "The Hood", I wanted Doop to be one of my first ascensions, but I find myself prioritizing offense. However, I do also find myself with a little ascenders remorse having chose Karnak as my first, and I almost never use him... On the obvious Deathlocke now.
