I think making the blue power the lowest tier/alliance reward in the previous event was a mistake. It's boring and interferes with most of the better power sets (reds and greens are the popular damage colors). So unless I get another color soon, she's going to languish for months while I randomly find covers.
The loaner version was fun to play with, but the two blue version I have for the essentials is dead weight. Two purples would have made a huge difference, I think. Not only does it do 'something', but it's an active power that would fuel your primaries on a color that is underrepresented in 3* land.
Yeah I was thinking the same thing. I hate using her blue right now without any other powers. At least once I have her other moves it can power that but for now it is just effing up my other characters who use those colors.
I am debating though whether or not she should be what I drop all of my HP on. After the PvP rewards so long as I stay in a decent rank I should be able to max her on powers and still have some HP left. I am just not sure she is really worth it though. I wish I could mess around with her maxed in a couple more matches
EDIT
On that note, I am trying to think of what her best power set would be. I am thinking 4/4/5?
4->5 in Purple only nets an additional stun turn and the ability to steal Team-Ups when matched. This is good but not really necessary.
Ideally you would have Blue at 5 to get the most out of it and make 10 tiles change and not just 8 so that you have a higher chance at cascades and what not, but I think having her black at max is more important since that jump from 4->5 yields a HUGE jump in power.
Thoughts?
DOUBLE EDIT

Apparently 4/4/5 is seen as the least desirable...
TRIPLE EDIT
Haha so reading the forums I definitely am not nearly as interested in boosting her to the top of my roster anymore. They bring up valid points as to how she is useful, and definitely moreso than many of the new additions, she still has drastic drawbacks. To get the most out of the Black move you need a shit ton of AP since it requires a shapeshift tile to be out too which means it takes 19 AP to nuke with her.. which normally isnt too bad but her low health pool really messes with that. I can see the merit then as her as 5/5/3 and then however she is still just a purely support character.
While that doesnt make her bad by any means, I just feel I should focus on someone else then with this massive pile of HP. I REALLY wish I had Blade's purple because then he would be an easy choice.
I could focus on X-Force but since 4* covers are basically double the 3*s I wouldnt get nearly as much out of it.
Ugh.
