D.04.b) Commentary
------------------
Deadpool is really quite scary. Rupturing jab has very high bonuses to 
melee damage, plus a little extra bleed damage. He's got regneration equal 
to Wolverine (and Sabretooth) and teleportation similar to Nightcrawler 
(though you have to buy a lot more levels to get the same distance, and you 
can't use it for attacking).

You'll want lots of Strike points for Deadpool to exploit damage from your 
melee skills. Weapons Mastery is also a must have, and you'll want plenty 
of Mutant Master levels to make up for lack of Focus. Regeneration is nice, 
and saves a little on health packs. Don't bother with Dual Shot unless 
you're going to let the computer control him, it aims better than you do. 
Nitrogen Blast, Wisecrack and Block aren't that exciting. A few levels of 
Stealth can boost your melee, but you should be relying on powers rather 
than fisticuffs.

Buy:
* Rupturing Jab: keep maxed
* Weapons Mastery: keep maxed
* Teleport: either 6 or 11 ranks (30 ft or 41 ft range)
* Mutant Master: at least 7 ranks
* Regeneration: maybe 7 ranks, not more
* Dual Shot: if you're letting the computer control Deadpool

Don't Buy:
* Wisecrack: eh...
* Block: useless.
* Nitrogen Blast: if you want to freeze your enemies, get Iceman
* Blade Cyclone: hard to aim, expensive
* Butterfly Kick: don't need it with Rupturing Jab

D.05.b) Commentary
------------------
You can build Gambit in two ways. First, you can concentrate on building 
his Strike score and spend your points on Energy Fury, Energy Combat and 
Evade and make him an "energy tank". He's pretty good this way, especially 
against the physical resistant enemies that give regular tanks a lot of 
trouble. You can also throw in some Staff Assault, which is good for 
hitting power combos.

Second, you can use him as a ranged/support character, with skill points 
spent on Card Shuffle, the traps, Card Mastery, using Energy Fury to buff 
the tanks and Prince of Thieves to improve treasure drops. As a ranged 
character, he's not quite as good as some of the others, but it's the buffs 
you want in this build.

ENERGY TANK

Buy:
* Staff Assault: some ranks here and there to use breaking up mobs
* Energy Form: keep maxed
* Energy Fury: keep maxed
* Energy Combat: keep maxed
* Evade: keep maxed
* Mutant Mastery: some points as you can spare them

Don't Buy:
* Pretty much everything else, you're not going to use any Card attacks,
  nor the Xtremes

RANGED/SUPPORT

Buy:
* Card Shuffle: keep maxed
* Ace of Spades: just a rank or two until you get Full House
* Full House: keep maxed
* 52 Pickup: keep maxed
* Prince of Thieves: keep maxed
* Card Mastery: keep maxed
* Energy Fury: ranks as you can afford them to buff your tanks

Don't Buy:
* Staff Assault, Staff Slam, Energy Form, Energy Combat and Evade:
  you should be avoiding melee combat
* Mutant Master: maybe a few ranks, but you're going for high Focus
  score, so you don't need this as much


Stats
-----
At level  1: 20 Body,  16 Focus, 20 Strike, 20 Speed
At level 99: 45 Body, 114 Focus, 45 Strike, 65 Speed

Build (Energy Tank):
1/2 Strike
1/4 each Body and Speed
Ignore Focus (you're getting bonus points in it every level anyway) until 
you get at least 150 in Strike, then put 1/4 of your points into each stat

Build (Ranged/Support):
1/2 Focus
1/4 Speed
1/8 each Body and Strike

D.06.b) Commentary
------------------
Iceman's big contribution is slowing or freezing enemies. This is 
especially helpful against mini bosses and bosses. In addition, he can be 
quite damaging on his own, and adds useful support to the team with the 
ability to build bridges, put out fires, and buff your tanks.

Still, he's not indispensible, even in the early game. And his powers 
consume too much energy for you to invest heavily in Strike, so his Ice 
Gloves work much better for other characters than for himself.

Buy:
* Slow Beam: until you get Freeze Beam
* Freeze Beam: keep maxed
* Ice Pillar: strong blast power that's also very destructive
* Ice Gloves: to buff tanks
* Cold Mastery: keep maxed
* Mutant Master: a few ranks to boost energy regen

Don't Buy:
* Ice Shards: not very powerful
* Ice Slide: more of a toy than anything
* Arctic Burst: weak radial
* Cold Snap/Ice Sidekick: weak Xtremes
* Ice Combat: maybe a few ranks early, but Bobby shouldn't be in melee
