How to Float

ChaorenID#26465I have observed a number of people who stay in roughly the same place while growing tougher and have considered how to do this. I am currently experimenting with it on Chaoren, as he needs to fill in his powers a bit before rising.Here are my thoughts on the best way to do this.Fight only level 1 characters in the standard fights. This will let you get most victories for least experience, so you can eventually win Morphons.Run Fight clubs from most likely to win to least likely to...

Raidette: Neo Utopia Player Review

by 21161M@D M@X Smashing the mini raid was actually kinda cool had better drops then ever before with this tiny toon. I didn't care I didn't get gear to be honest because I got quite a few cards that were much needed to fill up my card deck. Honestly tho, I am waiting to see more now like it just to see what tweaking they do to it in the future. One thing I would like to put out here as a idea for the raid gear drops would be different stats more for next raid like multipliers and pure damage...

(Belated story) Dedication meets Victory

 (Note: This was meant to be published in July. I, Dan Peyton, forgot. Sorry to the author. Here it is.)Author: Welcome to My House id#20314Congratulations Carnage on the Push-ups contest taking not only 1st but the highest amount in the game among the divisions. Dedication to the new Patrols are paying off. At 1st I thought it was glitched until asking and learning how the missions played into the event. In my opinion if I were you I'd be writing a short story or asking a friend to set up...

Heroes Rising Fiction: Dial N for Nova Part 4

 Steelfist swung hard as he punched hero after hero. However, he was on the receiving end of most of the blows. Chase led a team directly toward him. She materialized her throwing blades, but found that they were two nail files instead.“Stupid altered reality!” Still, she threw. They met Steelfist’s tiny glasses and his spectacles went flying.“YA STUPID DAME!” He bellowed and came down hard to smash Chase.Der Engle pulled Chase aside just in time and the fist plowed into pavement and stuck.Zombie...

Holy Dynamic Duo, We're getting not ONE, but TWO Raids!!! At the Same Time!!

Things have gone the the birds, I tell you, To The Birds.How do you work this dag-blamed thing? I'm sorry, Sentinel readers. We're having a bit of technical difficulties here on the battlefronts. Our reporting equipment has somehow transformed to ancient radio technology. Cell phones have been replaced by portable radios and my laptop is now a pad of paper and pencil. The entire world around Neo Utopia is a crazy, mixed up place. I feel like I've been swept up into a holodeck program on the...

Player Advice -- Free and Friendless: 11 Rules for an Effective Character

by Chaoren ID#26465I created Chaoren as a placeholder, someone to let my league, Time's Arrow, take part in the League War IX without dragging my average league strength up enough to make winning nearly impossible.It has been 4 weeks since I created him, I have reached level 50 and gotten 2105 wins in battle. It required a lot of play, something I will probably not do quite so much of in the future, but it also requires playing smart.There are a few basic rules I have followed for play.#1) Save...

Heroes Rising Fiction: Dial N for Nova Part 3

 It was 3 in the afternoon when she walked into my place. The sky was dark, rain soaked the streets. Why is it this dark at three you might ask, the ambiance required it. Still, the mood was right for her to walk into my life. I could hear my secretary stating. “Mista Peyton not seeing no one today.” Then I heard her voice. “I must see him, it is important. He’s the only man in this city who can help me.” “I tell ya, he ain’t seeing no dame today.” My secretary was dead wrong. I always...

League War Fan-Fiction: The Crucible

by Madam Marvelous (and Midgardsormr)ID# 26130 and ID#11112The match we fought during Round 3 was the most tense round of battle I could imagine. I don’t know if it was because the rest of my league, Lothlorien, and I fought more than we had in any of the previous rounds or if it was because of the invitation to the WMD Black Order suite to watch their fights. I was grateful for two things. (Well, three, if you count the invitation Midgarsormr had sent me.) The rest of my league fought alongside...

League War 9 Fan-Fiction: "Round Three Girl Talk"

By Chained Angel (ID#20570) Chained Angel walked over to Astra while Round 3 went on at League War Aquatic. "Hi Astra. I wanted to check in on you after last round. No hard feelings?"Astra realized that Chained Angel of the Star Force must have been referring to the defeat she and her league suffered during the previous round. "No hard feeling. You fought hard. We fought hard. I got in a few good psychokinetic punches here and there.""I figured as much," Chained Angel said. "Some of the guys...
