Just wondering what exactly the H-E-R-O lanes do in SM. What advantage do you get from completing them ?


Thanks

R-E-A-D    T-H-E    M-A-N-U-A-L !

Not in the manual ... not in PINNEWS review  

Why not just take off the glass end experiment to see what happens when you complete HERO in the different modes?

decent idea and I may have to but I thought maybe someone has already done it

Adds 1X to bonus multiplier.

I believe Glen is correct. You can use the flippers buttons to move which lane is lit in order to quickly complete the H-E-R-O and then start again. Are you enjoying the pin? I installed V2.2 in it, did you try the new V2.4? If you did, is there anything noticably new?

So that adds 1X to the multipler same as completing W-E-B  (other than the skill shot that gives you 5X) ?

Really enjoying the machine going thru the rule set to better understand .. I've put up some decent scores but haven't gotten to superhero yet. Still running the 2.2 I had heard about some Doc Ock issue with the new release so i haven't loaded it.

There is a second skill shot if you have noticed. If you do not send the ball up to the W-E-B lanes, just make it out of the shooter lane and then with the side flipper hit Venom, more points for that skill shot.

Yup that one is 500K and adds to the Venom amount. The reason I asked the original question was that the Pinnews article (review #2) did a real good job on the ruleset but I couldn't find any reference in it for the hero lanes. Lately I've been trying to use the Spidersense bonus for the villains and see what that does to scoring but I've only played a couple of games since reading that rule.
