Ooh! I'll try to go for both

Hoping the 105k is relatively easy to reach (like most recent PVEs); it's the only thing I need from this.

Also, as many tokens as I can get, I guess.

Free Sentry? Was that given out in the event or something? Sorry if it's a dumb question, but since I wasn't around for the last Prodigal Sun event I don't know. Because the rewards seem to be Spiderman?

Shame I somehow got like 4 2* Daken from LRs. This one is kinda useless

Me too. Then I will stop.

When it was first run, there was a node that gave out a red Sentry cover when we hit the unlock point.

Is there points meter like the first time prodigal son did?

hurcules

Can someone post the sub rewards details?

CrookedKnight

The progression rewards are music to my ears. The Ares green gets him to 4/4/5, the Daken blue, plus the one from the Cap PvP, gives me five of those, and of course Doc Ock's blue.

And then I can put on the brakes, because if you asked me to choose between Spider-Man covers and a half-finished can of Diet Coke, I'd have to think hard about my answer.

Unknown

If the structure hasn't changed from the last time then the last sub has no rubberbanding and is worth a very high amount of base points, though with this ultra weak rubberband going on there's not much difference anyway.

Gathering them now. PSA: Doing the available main node, "Target Practice," opens the first sub but does not put you into a bracket.

Unknown

Wow, an entire event just to give people a babyDaken ? I mean it's not like there's a reason to give a **** about any of the other covers in the whole event

Unknown

Took them 6 months to re-run the PvE people actually LIKED.

Guess that means our ETA to see Gauntlet again is around March.

inb4 "lol spidey covers this pve is a joke d3 sux". I'm going to enjoy my rubberband fueled playing for that blue doc ock cover and not grind every 2.5 hours.

Let's put one of the least popular characters as cover rewards for one of the best PVE's.

This is like dating someone with untreated bipolar disorder.

Is the Coke warm and flat or is it still a little cool? That might be the tie-breaker there.

Unknown

Yep thanks d3 for an easy pve.

GrimSkald

I could actually use that Spider-Man purple for the once-a-month lightning rounds where he is boosted. Guess I'll give it an hour or two and jump in.

Here's to hoping they give away the sentry cover for the last node, eh?

Unknown

The only thing that's going to be nice is the boosted Ares. Booster Ares is a blast to play.

Holy cow, this. Ares is one of my favorite characters, and doesn't get much love. A real lunch-pail guy.

Just have to work out how many refreshes I need to do at the end of the sub to post a score that will get to 105K. And then decide if doing that many nodes is worth a Doc Oct blue. (His black in Enter the Dark Avengers really Murdered the 3 Goons with 8 attack tiles out)
