Cyclops <-- MANY people said he sucked... These people just don't know how to set up his stats and skill points efficiently! :P
Christ, that was a quick response! Anyway, my five are:
Iceman, Magneto, Rogue, Sunfire, and Iron Man
mine are jean grey, rogue and nightcrawler, the rest are all equal or less to me.
Cyclops, Nightcrawler, Iceman, Pyro
Gambit, Bishop, Toothy, Deadpool and Sunfire.
I don't get how you can say bishop is one, mine would be Jean, but her health suxs, sunfire, nightcrawler, iceman, storm, and toad.
Bishop, when well balanced, has sick energy damage and a very nice gun blast accuracy. Even at melee damage he is pretty good on his own, and I'm not even really a fan, just was using him for a energy absortion feat (one of those to get the Iron Man beacon in the sewer), an he honestly proved himself as a hell of a character in XML2.
Bishop is cool but i hate playing as him cause when theres melee attacks it's kind of hard to play as him, his only good attacks I think are the one where he shoots up and the absorb one. Or maybe i just didn't set his attacks right? Anyways i forgot to add wolverine! Then again i hate ironman but he is one of the strongest character and professorx.
NightCrawler,Iron man,Bishop,Wolverine,and DeadPool
IMO, Iceman is the strongest character in the game.
rogue and scarlet witch were the crappest characters in the game mine would be x-man,cable,dark phoenix,cannonball and sunfire
Does anyone own the N-Gage version? Wikipedia says Beast is its exclusive.
I would say Wolverine, Cyclops, Deadpool, Colossus, and Iceman were the best to play as.
Greatest team ever is :
Wolverine, colossus, Beast and cyclops
In XML1/2 and MUA
Deadpool(or wolverine), Iceman, Storm and Colossus(or Juggernaut).
Iceman and deadpool are the strongest characters in xml 2 but in MUA they powers decreases a lot
Hmm. Iceman and Iron Man are the most powerful in XML2, IMO.
In XML2 I consider and always will consider Magneto as the most powerfull(with a little support from Rogue). My team now is Magneto, Rogue, Jubilee and Storm. Magneto's shrapnel sentry for me is unrivaled! But this skill require much EP. Rogue have Heal, which is good when low on health. May be I am a weakling, because, without Magneto I can't play at all :rofl:
Magneto's Magnetic Grasp is pretty addictive. The one where he pulls in objects and enemies. Metal Spikes and Polarized Shield also make him nearly untouchable in this game.
Cyclops, Jean Grey, Rogue, Nightcrawler, and Iron Man
The fire guys (Sunfire and Pyro)were incredibly fun to play as. Ignite was so destructive :pyro: :sunfire:
I really enjoyed my Magneto solo. It was my first time through the game and it felt so epic using Polarised Shield then floating around using Magnetic Grasp as everything revolved around him in complete pandemonium whilst the enemies are unable to do anything beneath his mighty magnetic onslaught!
Yes, I LOVED Magnetic Grasp as well. Couple that with Nightcrawler's Sword Whirlwind. Magneto pulls in the enemies to be chopped by a frenzy of slashes from Kurt's fencing foils.
I love Magnetic Grasp too but sometinmes that move would crash my game. I'm such a comic nerd when i play the game. The X-Men Blue & Gold Team would never mix. So the blue team, I'd use Cyke, Wolvie, Rogue & Gambit and the gold Storm, Jean, Iceman and Bishop. Bishop, Sunfire, Storm and Toad were the best characters in Legends 2. Toad in particular really surprised me. Psylocke should have been in that came i don't understand why they left her out. There were just far too many mental dame items lying around to service just two characters.
well, jean grey and pyro were the best, with them together, you could almost beat the game with them alone since they deal alot of damage!
As for legends 1. Cyclops and Storm always had to be on my team because of their leadership qualities which are so important in bagging ep. Then I'd use Jean and Iceman and sometimes Gambit or Nightcrawler. Iceman would be replaced as soon as I got Emma Frost. I tried my hardest to like Beast but it was impossible. If his Cannoball roll was more like Mr. Fantastics in MUA he would have been great. Psylocke was extremely under developed. They should have given her Beast and Nightcrawlers acrobatic moves automatically
For me, the best characters to play as are Bishop, Deadpool, Juggernaut, Sabertooth and Nightcrawler.
I completed the game with just using Storm. Its all about STATIC CHARGE You ain't seen damage until you've seen that move. Definitely one of the best characters in the game, Along with Bishop, Ironman, Sunfire, Jean, Nightcrawler and Professor X
Personally, I thought Iron Man was the most ownage character of all, even though he has absolutely nothing to do with the X-Men. -.-
In X-Men legends one all of the charecters pretty much sucked compared to XML2 and MUA except Jean Grey who was fantastic and Magma was pretty awesome too! Beast, Rogue and Colossus sucked as they were slow moving.
In X-Men Legends II Magneto was very fun to play with, Colossus was alot better than in the first game as he was really fast, Cyclops was one of my favourites in the sequel, Toad was as somebody said above - very suprising and Storm was great to play as too.
The worst playable charecter in the second one was Scarlet Witch - shes got fantastic powers and is an excellent charecter but she sucked in the game.
In X-Men Legends, Jean Grey and Storm were the most powerful characters. Only thing was that Storm had leadership, could weld objects, and put out fires. Jean could build bridges, which was the only extra thing that she had that Storm didn't have. And her telekinesis was better than Storm's whirl wind's telekinesis. Iceman was really weak and pointless to use in the begginning of the game. Iceman got good when a person leveled his freezing power up. Wolverine was good to use in the begginning of the game with his healing factor, but I didn't like using him that much near the end. Magma and Nightcrawler were pretty good against Sentinels. Emma Frost was the worst character in the game, I mean her fear and command powers didn't do any damage. Her diamond form power didn't even turn her into a diamond. A lot of people say that she was a good melee character, but she wasn't one to me until the Asteroid M mission, and that's the last mission of the game!
LoL, although I like Emma Frost, im going to agree with you, she was far to week for my liking. Jean was awsome and Jubilee kicked butt with her flashing lights and whatnot.
I actually though Emma Frost was quite powerful when you put points into her... In my opinion, Jubilee and Beast were the weakest.

Emma was a great melee fighter, but as Dihan say, you must put the points correctly to use her as a tank like Colossus or Rogue, with the plus that she's faster. You must level her diamond form first (she doesn't turn into diamond, but at the high level, the diamond form is one of the best personal shields of the game, making her untouchable), that makes her stronger, then hardness and shell might are two great complements for her dimond form.
For me Command is usseless I prefer to put some points to Fear, because Fear does damage at level 25? I don't remember but Fear does damage and wiuth the power enhancer can be more powerfull.
You must use a power and strike enhancer and voila! Emma can be used as regular character since the X-mansion fields and astral plane mission.
If you level the diamond form, hardness and shell might first, you can use her against the sentinels(sounds crazy, but is true, I used her and she can kill a sentinel, not so fast like wolverine or rogue, but she can!)
As a big fan of Emma, I've perfected the way to make her stronger and I did it, she 's my lead charcater of XML and I use her in every misson of the game, since she's playable :)
Jean Grey and Storm were awesome, Rogue was good but you must increse her speed, Beast, Jublilee and Iceman were the worst characters of the game, just my opinion :)
:emmafrost:
Yeah Iceman could have been made better. Jubilee and Gambit's energy attacks were useless to me. Beast himself wasn't a good tank as Colossus and Rogue. Psylocke wasn't good against sentinels, but she was pretty good against Mastermold. Even Emma was a bit good against Sentinels, while Jean barely did damage against Mastermold. I loved Rogue's ability to steal other character's powers. I couldn't steal Mystique's and Pyro's powers for some reason. And both Sabretooth and Avalanche were invulnerable to their own powers, so Rogue's strength was the only power useful against them. I wish that XMLII gave Rogue her power stealing ability.
XMLII does give Rogue her power draining ability.
But doesn't she just drain health? I was talking about stealing powers.
Oh, okay now i know what you are talking about, well, yea you are right about that but for me Rogue is useful on an X-Men team, the only thing she could really do before taking Ms. Marvels powers was to just drain your powers and memories.
I just have to admit this nightcrawler was probably one of the best players to have on your team. I mean he could teleport through doors and walls and that helped me ALOT in the game trust me.
Actually Iceman was one of the most powerful melee fighter in Legends 1. He breaks down walls just by one punch. And not to mention his freezing abilities, he made the game so easy to complete. He was always on my team. I'm also going to have to disagree with you about Emma Frost. She was the best melee fighter in the game. When controlling Emma, I literally did nothing and watched as all the enemies threw punches as she reflected everything. I killed Magneto just by using Emma Frost. Same with the Sentinels, I only used Emma. She was so much fun. I stood there while the sentinels launched their missles at me and she just reflected the damage and knocked them flat out and she still had almost full energy left over. If your not finding Emma to be effective maybe your levelling up the wrong stuff. Put everything into her Sttike, some body and a bit of focus. Max out her fear and diamond form and hardness. Item wise: Spikes of Pennace, Ultra Strike Enhancer and Ultra Interial something. Can't remember the name but its the one that says '40% chance to reflect punch and kicks' And since she already reflects 50% if her hardness is maxed out, 90% of every single hit that is landed by an enemy is reflected which keeps her health bar almost always full. Any character can be good you just need to know how to level them up correctly and what to use them for. Like for example Jean was only powerful when you level up her telekenic combat equipped with power enhancers and high focus. without them she was pretty average and almost useless when fighting sentinels
The worst character was Jubilee, I just didn't see the point. Psylocke I felt was extremely rushed. She could have been a great character if a bit more thought went into to her. Rogue and Colossus were too slow. The only time they would be on my team was if I was using Gambit. His energy form defense would bring them up to normal speed. So it was all about tactics when using those two really.
Best all round character was Storm
I did in fact put all of my strike into Emma. I think that I ruined it by not putting much into her hardness. I agree with you about Psylocke. Gambit and Jubilee's energy projectiles were dissapointing to me and yes Storm was one of the best characters. Her and Jean Grey.
Yeah Emma was super powerful. Even more so when you have Cyclops and Iceman on your team and level up Icemans 'Ice Equipment' and Cykes 'Tactics' combined. That gives you something like a 20+ Striking. Gambits projectiles were pretty good I thought but his best move like I mentioned b4 was his 'Energy form' attack. It super increases his speed and strength to such a degree that I wiped out the whole New York riot sentinels using just him. Try it, max out his 'Energy attack' and 'charged' passive and you'll see what i mean. I've completely changed my mind about Beast he's a decent character and actually a lot of fun to play with. Jean was my favorite though. Levitating explosive barrels and chucking them at the enemies was so addictive!!! I made a conscious effort not to have Wolverine in my team. He just destroys everything even when I changed his characteristics to defensive he was still super aggressive.
I'm sure I've stolen powers from Pyro before with Rogue. She can also steal powers with her in Legends 2. I've done it b4. Wow, looking at the Legends 2 poll it looks like the people's choice for best character is Jean Grey. She winning by two votes to Iceman. I'm shocked Xavier has only 2 votes and lost to Scarlet Witch. I wonder what the peoples choice is for legends 1. Infact, I'm gonna start a legends 1 poll and see for myself.

Exactly! I killed Magneto and the sentinels just with Emma too, manny people don't believe me, but it's true, Emma is almost invincible with her diamond form, strike and passives (hardness, shell might) even the last danger room mission (when you have to fight, juggernaut, sabretoth, marrow, dark pyro and a lot of enemies) was so easy with Emma in my team, in fact, I complete this mission with Emma alone :)

What poll are you looking at? :D Nightcrawler is the best on this poll :D
I must admit that in XMLII Gambit is really powerful and fun to use. I also plan to give Emma a chance in XMLI.
