D.02.b) Commentary
------------------
Oh how the mighty have fallen! Colossus in XML1 was indispensable with his 
Concussion Slam. In XML2, Colossus is next to useless. Not only is his 
damage output less than other tanks (such as Wolverine and, heaven forbid, 
even Toad); but also, all his attacks are physical damage. When 
encountering physical resistant mobs, he has no Plan B.

Plus, he's still slow as molasses. If you're really a fan of Big Red, play 
to his strengths. Beef up his Strike stat to increase the damage of his 
attacks. Ignore his radial attacks and take Toad and his Secretion skill to 
boost Peter's speed and damage output.

Buy:
* Uppercut: useful pop up secondary effect
* Massive Strike: chance for instant 1/3 HP loss on target
* Bounding Smash: good knockback effect
* Siberian Express: one of the better press-and-hold skills in the game,
                    great for taking out large mobs
* Unbreakable: more for the damage increase than the invincibility
* Brawler/Galvanize: a few levels for the extra ATK and DEF
* Might: always useful and you only need to spend one point (Colossus
         starts with one level Might)
* Mutant Master: a few levels are needed to keep Peter going

Don't Buy:
* Thunder Clap: just not as good (nor as fun) as in XML1, buy one level for
                Bounding Smash
* Demoliton: there are better Xtremes
* Roar: even when maxed, the stat increase isn't that impressive
* Block: not a useful skill for any character
* Metallurgy: better to wear +resistance equipment
* Steel Skin: doesn't really have enough energy to afford it

D.03.b) Commentary
------------------
In XML1, Cyclops was kind of a wuss. Not much has changed in the sequel. 
Damage output is limited, his visor is hard to aim and he doesn't add a lot 
to the team. There's no welding this time around and Leadership is only 
useful if you want to power level a little bit (and power leveling is 
overrated). Command is a good boost, so that combined with Leadership might 
be reason enough to have him around.

Or not.

Buy:
* Optic Beam: bread-and-butter offense
* Auto Artillery: one of his most useful skills
* Fusion Beam: for energy-resistant enemies
* Polarized Beam: for large mobs
* Command: good boost for team
* Visor Upgrade: to keep offensive damage up
* Leadership: along with Command, only reason to have him around
* Mutant Mastery: because you want to spam his powers 24/7

Don't Buy:
* Optic Slam: low damage, lots of knockback, but damage is more important
* Optic Flash: not that great as a stunning attack
* Focused Beam: sure it pierces enemies, but that only helps if they line
                up, which they don't, so it's just a low-damage version of
                Optic Beam
* Optic Rage: OK Xtreme, but not great
* Flawless Tactics: only if you want to power level
* Tactics: get better DEF bonuses from equipment
* Defense Grid: not a big help
