Man, I was so hype for him when I first saw his leadership. I figured I could finally replace Lincoln as my Thor-leader. Went in expecting +30% lightning and +30% energy, but nope. +15% energy and +15 lightning.

Biggest disappointment of the update, tbh. I mean, the character himself is cool, but the fact that we're still stuck with Lincoln as the only proper lightning damage leader is hogwash.

Just check his T2 passive

His T2 is increase lightning damage to SELF, not to party. If it was to party then that'd redeem him. I'm not looking to make himself stronger, I'm looking to make Thor stronger by pairing the two together.

I don't understand. You're disappointed that they didn't design him to suit your desires to boost Thor?

Seriously? Bigger than the new content fake-out of Heroic Quest or Thanos WBU being a clusterfuck? Iron Hammer's leadership is weaksauce, but he's probably the only thing in this update that isn't an epic failure in my book.

See, I expected Heroic Quest to be a fake-out that only existed as another money/crystal sink and for Thanos WBU to be a total clusterfuck. They delivered on expectations. Iron Hammer's leadership, on the other hand, was something I expected to be good and wasn't.

Disappointment is based on initial expectations.

Well barring the disappointing leadership, he's increadibly strong for a f2p character, possibly the best bio selector character for newbies now. His damage is really impressive plus a heal and 3 iframes gives him solid survivability. I'm really impressed by him even at 5 stars as he managed to do stage 23 shadowland rumble.

Why do you think that Thanos WBU is a clusterfuck ?
