Learn how to best utilize Iron Man's Repulsors, Lasers, and Rockets, and discover essential skills for crowd control, stun damage, and defense in Marvel's Avengers.
Alright, let's talk about Iron Man! He's a total powerhouse, but you gotta play him smart. Think of him as a glass cannon – he hits hard from range, but you'll want to focus on grabbing those Intrinsic Orbs when you're using his ranged attacks to keep that Intrinsic meter topped up.
Iron Man's got three main types of ranged weapons: Repulsors, Lasers, and Rockets. You'll find their specific skills under the 'Primary' tab, and they're listed in that order in the 'Mastery' skills under 'Ranged' too. Repulsors are your go-to for long-range engagements, they're pretty efficient on energy, and they're great for building up that stun gauge for sweet takedowns. Lasers, especially with the Photon Samurai skill, are awesome for crowd control, just mowing down groups of enemies. Rockets are your splash damage kings, perfect for breaking through enemy guards.
