Longtime leader of the X-Men, Scott Summers is cursed with optic blasts that fire whenever he opens his eyes. Cyclops must wear a protective ruby-quartz visor to hold these destructive beams in check -- or risk destorying everyone and everything around him!
RECOMMENDATIONS
I honestly haven't used Cyclops much aside from when you don't have any other choice. His Optic Beam and Optic Sweep are useful against physical resistant enemies such as Blob. And you definitely need him if you're not using Storm for welding things together (in the U.S.S. Arbiter and Nuclear Facility missions). His Leadership is great for adding up those experience points quickly. I like his Optic Rage, except it only shoots in one direction and usually when I need the Xtreme Power, it's because I'm hopelessly surrounded. However, it's great against bosses. Since I didn't really use him much, I don't know exactly what he's best used for, so I distributed his points pretty evenly.
