Summoners!
Another three months have passed, and I’ve now been playing MCOC for seven and a half years! Let’s see what I’ve accomplished recently and how my roster is progressing.
Champions – 863 (+49)
PI – 2,628,685 (+163,665)
Prestige – 12,788 (+655)
(Increase over the past 3 months)
My Top 4 champs remain the same, but there has been some shuffling at the top. Apocalypse is my first Rank 4 champion, taking the profile position from Falcon. I do expect to Rank 4 Spider-Ham, Scarlet Witch, and Falcon as well, but much is dependent on the Act 7 3-4 Rank-Up Gem I’m working towards.
6-Star Roster
I now have 91 6-Stars, up 11 from 80 back in May.
Rank Breakdown
Rank 4: 1
Rank 3: 13
Rank 2: 22
Rank 1: 55
Besides making Apocalypse my first Rank 4 champion, other big moves include ranking-up Silver Surfer, Gambit, Mole Man, Human Torch, Archangel, and Ikaris. I’ve also recently added Jubilee and Joe Fixit to my roster, and they should be at least Rank 2 by the next update.
My current plan is to save for the next 6-Star Featured Crystal, which debuts on November 1. Of particular interest to me are Valkyrie and Quicksilver, two top prestige champions. I would like to move back up to a Map 8 Alliance after I 100% Act 7, but prestige is an issue for my account. Pulling either (or hopefully both) of those champs would provide a long-term benefit to my account.
5/65 5-Stars
I have 51 5/65 5-Star champions, up 3 from 48 last update. My new 5/65s are Ronan (stun-cheese), Punisher, and Rogue.
4/55 5-Stars
My Rank 4 5-Star champs number 26, up 1 from the last update. My new Rank 4 champs are Thanos, Stryfe, and Dormammu.
Top 5 Most Wanted
Aegon – Abyss
Silver Surfer – Prestige (Need Dupe)
Sorcerer Supreme – Buff/Unstoppable Counter/Fun Champ
Valkyrie – Prestige
Quicksilver – Prestige
Unfortunately I made no progress on last update’s Most Wanted List. Aegon continues to evade my main account, although I did pull him on my FTP mini.
Content Progress
The march to 100% Act 7 continues. Act 7.3 is now 100% explored, and I have 100% explored 7.4.1. Fully exploring Act 7 within the next few months is the goal, but it will be difficult to balance time working on Act 7 while earning the Rank 4 rewards from the Event Quest, Side Quest, and Eternity of Pain.
For alliance play I’m still in my “retirement” alliance DOMIN, which plays AQ Map 4/2 and Silver 2 War.
Total Account Spend: $875 USD (+$35 past 3 months)
