  • The latest update fixes the base level attack bug. I would skip until forced unless you feel like turning on hard mode.

    Based on past experience, they will likely force you about 1-2 hours before these subs end, which will force you to tackle impossible goons based on scaling. If you update now, you may not scale as much. Or you may scale just as much. It's a crapshoot

    I had an 80+ level Juggernaut hit me with a headbutt for 125 damage in one of the unlock nodes, so I think the bug's still there.

    It seems like people are expecting D3 to secretly fix a serious game breaking bug and not even tell anyone about it because that's how sneaky they are.

    If I had a bug that bad and could not fix in with a few hours I have pulled the PvE that was going on until I could fix it. They knew about it when the event was less than a day old or maybe before it had event started.

    Yeah, I was surprised the event wasn't postponed, because having enemies do base level ability damage kind of rendered the entire event irrelevent in terms of difficulty.

    I hope scaling hits the top of my bracket hard. 46000+ points with 6 days to go.
  • Downloaded the new patch. They fixed the issues.

    These event tokens are amazing - just pulled another Fury and a blue CMags from yesterday's efforts. That's five golds from 11 tokens now icon_e_biggrin.gif

    La la la la la la, I can't hear you over the sound of the 2 stars I am opening. 1 red Hulk in 7 tokens, dammit.

    Seriously, though, congratulations, I'm just Hulk green with envy that I have to wait until my day 460 login to get a Fury
  • I had a lot of 3* pulls in this event but none of them were the characters I need.
  • Do the subs rubberband in their own bracket or across all brackets? Beacause now that I joined late I am getting 500 point nodes whereas earlier I was getting like 300 maybe even when it was about to end.

    Also for the new update. The last time they gave early adopters a token I think?
  • I waited to start the subs until this morning and it worked great on the easy one (there were 82 people in the bracket when I finished my first clear) and ok on the second (671 when I finished my first clear). I'm guessing we'll be switching to midnight end times soon enough; I'm hoping to pull something I need from a token at some oint.

    And for the third time in a row, I join a hard sub bracket and find myself with Sumilea and Thugpatrol icon_lol.gif

    Well Doh... I always join about the same time from the sub end to get in 3 refreshes.

    When the times switch is when I stop playing this event. Doing 3 refreshes during the day is okay and does not take much time, but not going to happen when they finish at 5am. Hopefully there one more sub before the times switch.

    You guys have more luck than I am, pretty much all my pulls are **Magneto icon_e_sad.gif
  • I haven't pulled a single 3 Star from any of my ISO8 tokens, so there is that.

    Something the times in the recent Hulk event taught me - if I had to put up with the end times in every PVE that are as bad as the people in Europe have to put up with, I'd probably quit the game. They really need to fix this at some point.

    It's not bad right now the subs end at an acceptable time. The PVP costs a lot more HP though when it ends at 7 AM.

    Also the big problem for europeans was the ridiculous rubberbanding in the last couple of hours. If the main nodes all have set points like right now its not too bad. Since you can mostly keep your spot if you miss the last 7 or so hours. Of course you aren't getting first or second but you weren't on track for that either way if you didn't wake up at midnight to do the refreshes.

    I'd still like to know what the subs rubberband to. Does it consider only your bracket or all brackets.

    My understanding is the rubberbanding is off the global subevent leader, so all brackets. Which is why you can enter subevents late, do 2 refreshes and still put reasonable points on the board.

    Yes it works like that. That is why I am still in the top 10 in the main when only starting each sub 5 hours 45 minutes before it closes.
  • Is there just one sub for this round?
  • Is there just one sub for this round?


    Yes this is the change over point. Where I take my 20 tokens and retire for the event.
