How many Rocket & Groot covers are you trying to get in the Thick as Thieves PVE? Just want to see how much of the forum is in the 1% that end up getting 4 covers from a PVE.

If I am close enough, I will try for that Invisible Woman Green, but if not, I will settle for Top 10 and probably save myself a lot of grinding.

    I'm aiming for four. I actually could use the IW - it would finish her off - but I'm not willing to do what I"d need to to get it. Top 10 should be realistic, though. I can usually get it when I'm truly aiming for it.

    After playing 24/7 a week for a X Force Black I have little desire to grind this one. Just hitting nodes every 4 hours or so, don't care since it'll be 6 months before I have 13 covers anyway.

    Aiming for 2 cause I'm being realistic. I almost always get high enough to score two covers on my own, and usually get pushed out of getting the third. I'm in an Alliance, but its not one that performs well enough at the moment to place near high enough to get the Alliance cover...

    The fact that Gamora and Thoress are gonna be in the Rocket & Groot PVE, I'm probably gonna save my grinding for that. I got the Black X-Force in the last PVE, so I am taking this one a little easier, despite not having an IW green yet. I will pick up the pace if I start seeing that I have a lot of ground to make up to stay Top 10. The variation on the subs length for this PVE makes it a little harder to plan out too. Since the Rocket & Groot PVE will be all new, I imagine there will be no way to strategize an optimal play schedule. It'll probably be hitting every node every 2.5 hrs, for however long the PVE lasts.

    Hoping for 2, but if the data issue isn't fixed asap, 1.

    It's not an option, but I'm in it for the HP. I've spent the last two PvE's hitting the subs really hard because I need to replenish my HP reserve.

    The consequence of that will be that I'll have a decent bracket score, but where that puts me I don't overly care. There's an HP jump for top 20, so I'd like to get to the 2 cover area, but I also know I'm in a tough bracket, so if I end up with 1, I'm ok with that.

    I wanted to get 3 on my own but I've been placed in the Bracket of Foom. Realistically, I'll probably end up with 2.

    Going to try for All 3, plus a 4th from my alliance. If I do, I get 3 covers and I help my team get covers for them selves. My alliance, Heros-R-Us is one awesome group of players, so even if I did not get a good finish, I know I can count on that cover. But with my Marvel addiction, I'm going for all 3. I have a compulsive need to have all characters. Yes, I know, something is seriously wrong with me. icon_e_biggrin.gif

    Trying for, and will actually get are sometimes different. Although I was in 4th after the first sub ended, so I'm hopeful for top 10.

    Completely understand. I had 1st locked in The Simulator, but kept grinding because my alliance fell out of the Top 50. I finished with 262,212 pts. The final progression reward was 160,000. My alliance mates also made a push and we finished 49th.

    The Tacos and Rings have gone PVE optional and its been a real boon for our membership. we have a lot of vets who arent so stressed bc they feel like they need to perform in these masochistic weekly grinds "for the sake of the alliance".

    i havent joined yet...hell i might not join at all. ill just score a full set when they are rewarded as a pvp reward. but im sure as hell not grinding this kityy anymore.

    and it feels realy really good.

    1 is good enough for me just to have them for the next PvE required nodes. Would aim for 2 but as usual the event will end on a Tuesday morning when I'm at work, so hitting and maintaining top 50 isn't very realistic. My alliance doesn't play PvE so forget about the alliance cover.

    All subs and main finishing at 5am for me = no chance at top 10, not a hope in hell. My alliance is doing far worse than usual too so I'm working my **** off for 2 covers only.

    Bring on time sliced PvE...

    They'll bring changed end times right _after_ the one where it matters, with Thoress at stake.
    So we'll have a wonderful time playing on good times for amazing covers like, I dunno, Captain Marvel or something.

    Think they mentioned doing time slice PvE in early Dec. After Rocket, Groot, Gamora, and Thorette events end.

    With the event itself ending at 5am and every sub ending at 5am it sort of deflates you from the get go so I haven't even bothered with it. I am aiming for none which is a shame as the character really interests me. Sadly it has also bollocksed me for the next PvE as I will be at a distinct disadvantage by not being able to do any essential nodes.
