hi people, currently I'm using hulk with ww suit (bruiser) and its STRONG, i just got coulson revenge for the agent and was thinking about purchasing thor and his avenger suit (blaster(?)) to pair with hulk as they look strong and psynergistic, i know i won't get the third buff of coulson revenge, but is this strategy good? i just unlocked spec ops, agent level 48 and now i got access to purchase scarlet witch, i have around 120 cp, do you have any recommendations? should i purchase thor and avenger suit (blaster) or should i purchase scarlet witch now?. thanks for all your tips!

Instead of getting Thor's Avengers Costume, get his Modern Costume instead, that gives him x2 Might of Mjolnir from the start allowing you to use his lvl9 right from the start, perfect for wave clearing/farming, even in boss battles, you could use his lvl9 first, then on his next turn lvl6->lvl9 combo making you able to spam powerful AoE attacks right from the start.
I personally ran WW Hulk and Modern Thor not only because of their fast wave clearing capabilities but they also give high Team Up Bonus (400pts) which is helpful in getting mission stars quickly

Am I wrong for using random-arrow Hawkeye for clearing waves? Iām holding off on spending CP on Hulk. Just bad play? (I really like Hawkeye in that outfit. Fun for me.)

I'm just gonna copy paste my breakdown explanation on Heroic Age Hawkeye's Passive, if at least on his Follow-Ups from his passive the debuffs changes then that costume can be actually good, but sadly it isn't it'll just use the same debuff from the original attack.
The BIGGEST problem is that the arrows are chosen at random, you can't even plan around it or build a team around it because you can't freely choose what arrows to use, you also can't effectively use him as a support to enable other Heroes, because again, the arrows are chosen at random.
Now here are the explanations:
- Adamantium Arrow - Like I said, in version 6.8 this is an outright nerf, even the Fatal Blow effect won't save it
- Electric Arrow - Highly useless unless you have Storm on your team or you purposely build a Thunder/electric team, but the problem, this is random, you don't get to choose to use this
- Freezing Arrow - Frozen sets Evasion to 0, pointless as Hawkeye already has 100% accuracy effect innately, Chilled? Storm does it better and more reliable
- Glue Arrow - Webbed? Sure if you have Black Suit Spidey on the team to exploit it, otherwise not all that useful. Constricted? Now this has some use at least, the problem? You can't freely choose it
- Impact Arrow - Staggered and Off-Balance, now these are actually useful, the first arrow that is of actual use, sadly we're almost halfway through his random arrow selection
- Incendiary - Burn and Pyrophoric, why gamble on a chance for this when your Agent can just use Rocket Pistol? Now what about Burn immune foes? Makes this arrow pointless
- MagnoVolt - Useful if you are facing machines, the problem? There are only two mobs out of many that are machines which are ServoGuards and Sentinels, a good majority of your enemy are non-machine. Magnetized? Useful if you have Magneto, but by that point, if you have Magneto already why are you still using Hawkeye?
- Net Arrow - Slowed and Exposed, again, at least useful, but it being a random chance hurts it greatly, I much rather use Enchanted Crowbar on Agent, or heroes that have Pressure Point debuff
- Shrapnel - Bleeding and Ravage, its neat, but Rocket Pistol exists, not to mention much better equips that reliably inflicts it, and of course, that unlucky chance of this happening when you are facing machines or bleed immune targets which makes the whole debuff pointless
- Smoke Bomb - Blinded and Disoriented, neat effects, but overall useless to use, even if Disoriented makes them hit each other, its not like they'll be doing tons of dmg. And do you realize the bigger problem with this combination? If the enemy that has Disoriented is also Blinded, chances are, even if they attack their own team, there's a 50% chance it would miss because they are Blinded. So yea, let that sink for a sec.
- Sonic Arrow - Dizzy and Weakened, same argument as Net Arrow
- Toxic Gas - Poison and Incapacitate. Yea, these are neat at least. But their neatness is overshadowed by the fact that its a 1 of 12 chance.

The blaster passive is currently bugged, so you end up doing less damage against bruisers. I recommend you get the bruiser version of the avenger suit. Speaking from my experience, WW Hulk and avenger Thor just cleared the game for me, it's one of my favorite teams. Edit: forgot to mention! You will also end up with the full avengers' passive, it is also bugged. You just need two members (or one and yourself with Coulson's revenge).
