    When you read his bio it mentions Eternity and Death. Those are likely the next two.

    I'm assuming that 6*s will top out at 600. I'd also assume that ascended toons would do the same.

    I would assume much higher than 600 cap.4 stars start at 70 and cap out at 370, 300 levels higher. 5 stars start at 255 and cap at 550, 295 levels higher.

    I would expect 6 stars to stop at 790, 290 higher

    And boosted to like 900, maybe 🤔

    I was joking about Quandary.

    In my head I was thinking "Galactus is in the game and will now be playable. What other character has appeared in the game, is not yet playable, and most likely to break everything?" I then thought of Quandary and laughed.

    Just to clarify: I don't think Quandary will be next (probably never) I just thought it was funny. I understand I'm likely the only person who thinks this.

    Death and Eternity are as good a guess as anything else... I just hope April Fool's Day of next year brings us a 6* GLA Mr Immortal because the power to get absolutely smashed by stronger characters with the only upside being knowing you'll be the last living being in the universe is insane and I want to see how that translates in game.

    Looking forward to this anyone notice the roster filter now includes 6 stars.

    Does anyone know if 1 to 5 stars can ascend to six stars?

    Looking at that screen shot of Galactus, has anyone else noticed yet that ISO cost per level?

    131,927 ISO for 1 level! If 6 stars follow 4s and 5s in that they can level up roughly 200 levels then we are talking 131,927x200 = 26,385,400 ISO to max out at L700. And we know ISO costs grow as a character levels up so I bet it's closer to 30 million ISO to champ one of these characters!

    These guys better be really viable at L500 because adding just 5 levels is going to cost as much ISO as leveling an entire 5 star.

    Talk about ISO deficit. Even whales might be tempted to drop the 99 bucks for those 10x ISO offers where you can get 1 million ISO for your 99 bucks.

    Huh? That 131,927 refers to his health at lv500.

    He’s got other games to destroy, then he’ll be back

    I had the same thought about Quandary last night and it made me chuckle too...

    you know as much as the rest of us. there's hardly any information other than "6-stars are coming". No deets, they just want to get us "excited" to be initially disappoint with the launch.

    I would remind everyone that:
    1. It seems that Galactus is 4 weeks away (I think the next release in 2 weeks is a 5, since 6s are replacing 4s etc for a bit)
    2. The devs have a track record - indeed, it's somewhat expected - where the final release doesn't exactly match things we see beforehand (data mined, when that happens, or in game preview) - or even the initial posted details just a few days before release. So take what we saw as a guide.

    As far as iso cost, it would make sense based on current tier increases that to max level (pre-champ) a 6 will require 800k ish iso but maybe it would close be a million since they intend them to be rare and want them to somewhat hard to complete etc. No more than that.

    It's like a well oiled machine isnt it?
    Absolute dynamite as usual

    Guess:

    Galactus is shown on the covers of Goldie, Bill and Nova (which also has Surfer on her cover). Maybe all these are feeders for BigG?

    My guess would be no feeders out of the gate. Maybe after a while, like 6 months to a year, if ever.

    My guess too, just because if revenue is the driving factor for the 6-star, that they would want whales to spend on the new currency or the new token before making it available to genpop.

    I have been asking for Galactus for a longtime, I just hope he is not exclusively tied to season pvp placement. It is highly unlikely but I would not put it past the devs.

    Anyone else disappointed by his kit?
