Hello and welcome to the Emma Frost Omega Telepath/Hellfire Headmistress FAQ! This guide focuses on the Omega Telepath/Hellfire Headmistress aspect of Emma's gameplay, the goal being to provide you with as much information as possible so that you're able to make informed decisions that best suit your needs with your Emma setup rather than give you one restrictive build and setup to follow.
If you're new to Marvel Heroes you may want to check out this guide for new players.
