That's me! I'm "the moderator". And I don't get anything in the game handed to me. The fact I have Outlaw Monk leveled up tells you just how terrible my poisoners were for a long time.
I posted a set of Rares that a lot of people would have. With an uncommon even! I would hope this illustrates that most people can at least complete the first Bommal level. Do I need to only use farmable champs before it's a "free to play" team? Just starters?
Here's the thing. When you build your own team, you can use everyone on your roster. All your epics, Ninja, etc... If you post your team, there are people on the forum that will help you. I purposely spent 3 million silver upgrading some 5 star gear to 12 and readying the team. I did it SOLELY so I could get on the forums and on discord and say "Yes, you can do it, let's figure out a team" and know it wasn't becuase I worked to get Brogni or was lucky enough to pull Duchess. Instead we did it with champs *a lot* of people would have.
Yes, sometimes the answer is you need to farm gear or rank up champs. Doom Tower is meant to be challenging, meant to require thought, and meant to be a bit of a power check. And advanced quests are just that, optional content. Many days I don't have the time to do them all. :(
Also, harleQuinn or Quinn is fine. I'm not "the moderator", I'm just a player who tries to make sure everyone is mostly polite to each other on the forums and discord.
