    Grind the heck out of pve, collect 450 hp, open a new roster spot? Or are you at the point where that's not going to get you close enough?

    I'd need 2 slots (one for a 1* & one for a 2*), and I just upgraded my Alliance to 19 slots less than 24 hours before season 6 ends. Yeah, not going to have enough HP for a while.

    No, that was Balance of Power.

    Combined Arms had a set boost to every star level (50% I think, maybe more) and you got more of the boost depending on how many covers you had for a particular character.

    You might be right about that. Was it only that way for the 2nd BoP pvp because I don't remember that the first time. I thought it was combined arms but I might be mixed up.

    1st run of BoP only maxed characters of all star levels were boosted to level 270.
    2nd run of BoP everything was level 270 regardless of number of covers or levels. Unlevelled characters actually healed faster.
    Combined Arms required making a team comprised 1 star 2 star & 3 star, with fixed placement so it was tricky having certain ones tank by shifting placement

    They just posted Combined Arms for when Weapon Tex-Mex is ending, so seems like there's no overlap. :\ I doubt I can get 1000 points each...

    Already started building a new lvl 1 Jugg's in case it is like the second run.

    I've only got enough covers for one Juggernaut, so I'm considering running a level 40 Venom instead in CA and then swapping out. Not sure I care that much, though.

    Yeah I'm hoping that reaching 900 or 1100 progression reward in combined arms isn't too much of a chore. Can't use XForce and can't Sentry bomb with the usual suspects. Might try Sentry Minidaken & MBW or Sentry OBW & ???Juggernaut

    I don't have any room left in my roster. I'm not going to sell off my multiple covers of 3* or 4* characters to make room for any.

    I've also taken Free to Play as a personal challenge. So, yeah, stinks to be me, but those are the breaks of self-imposed restrictions.
    Yep, you could have joined a 20-slot alliance months ago and earned all the HP in the world and THEN work on starting your alliance. Suit yourself though icon_rolleyes.gif

    p.s. I like Balance of Power and Combined Arms even if they are healthpack devouring machines.

    You should be ashamed of yourself.
    I pity your alliancemates.

    Well I am in the position of only having to score 500 in each of them to reach the 3K limit and as I cannot play the last 36 hours of Combined Arms thats a good thing.

    Ahaha. I thought that the final progression award was 4000 and I'd need to get 1100 each in Combined Arms and BoP...

    Well, that's made my week look a lot easier in terms of point grinding.

    I feel that people who did not grind in the first event are pretty much tinykittied because its much harder to gain points in these last 2 events. Luckily (?) I had to reach 1500 points to get top 5 so its much more manageable for me now.

    Has anyone heard if there is going to be another PvE running this week?

    Hopefully starting soon. I'm getting bored looking at a single event I can't enter.

    You could always go back and grind prologue for double the iso.

    There are lightning rounds with Lady Thor at some point too, right?

    Oh boy! 40 iso every 10 seconds or so. Most of that is trudging through menus.

    Hi everyone,

    'Thanks for voting in the Character-Based Versus Tournament poll on Facebook! Polls have now closed and the final results are in.

    "The Deadpool Versus Tournament is the winner and will be featured with Balance of Power and Combined Arms in the fan-selected Versus Tournaments starting on October 10th."

    For those interested in runner-up results:

    Character-Based Versus Tournament: 2nd Place - Rage and Ruin, 3rd Place - Too Many Secrets

    Versus Tournament: 3rd Place - Children of the Atom, 4th Place - No Holds Barred
    (Balance of Power and Combined Arms were 1 and 2 respectively).

    Edit: DOUGH!!!!

    And finally, a reminder that the winner of the Favorite Event poll was: Deadpool vs. MPQ
    2nd Place - The Hulk, 3rd Place - Simulator Challenge.

    I don't think there will be another PVE based on the announcement. The winning PVE was Deadpool.
