    Can someone tell me exactly when the node shows up to win a green hulk cover?
    is it at the same time as the last sub-nodes?

    On a different but related subject, Doom's going to be a pretty decent choice now in the 3* food chain, yes? I haven't seen it play, as I was already skipping that node in Sim hard before the patch, and I didn't feel like wiping a team just to see it. Just the fact that the ability is purple will help slot him into some team comps?
    Yeah, he seems very solid, and Doom has specific synergy with both Patch and X-Force. With Patch, Doom's passive prevents Berserker Rage enemy strike tiles from appearing on any trapped tiles, while for X-Force he's a black feeder for Surgical.

    Yes, but only if you can get top 10 in all the 12 hour subs. You have to take into account that you probably won't get top 10 in the subs where you are sleeping most of the time. Also, these are 1000 person subs instead of 200, so less hero points are being given out overall.

    This is the crucial difference. It was pretty easy to get top 10 in both in Sim. With these larger subs, you have to scramble pretty hard to get one top 10, and getting both is very, very difficult.

    The 200 size subs in Simulator Basic is unusually generous in terms of sub size so they probably decided to be extra stingy to balance it out, not to mention these subs do occur 5 times as often as the 60H version.

    The best thing about 12 hour subs compared to 60 hours subs, in my opinion, is that you're not spending 48 hours getting 20 ISO per win.

    +1 to this.

    i thought the best thing was getting gold tokens every 12 hours that had stupid 2 stars over and over.

    I really messed up picking my start time. Every other round takes place from 9 pm - 9am. I can play for a while, until my usable roster gets wiped out. Get up in the morning then drive to work, I may have a 1/2 hr to play before time runs out. Need to plan this out better next time.

    12 hour (or 36 hour, or 60 hour) subs really undermine the benefits of time slices.

    Bolivia has only one essential node, Luke Cage.

    The Amazon has both Cage and Punisher.

    Yeah, more frequent tokens are good, but right now I'd rather have ISO. Then again, usually you just get 250 ISO from the token anyway.

    I've been T10 in every sub so far, and that is sleeping and working more than I am playing.

    If you're getting T10 in every sub you're playing a lot more than you think are, especially for normal where clearing optimally is trivial.

    a 12 hour sub is too short for "optimal" especially with 6 stacks for full decay.

    Has anyone gotten to the free hulk cover yet?
    Or is that not happening this time?

    Also curious about this. I don't see a Hulk cover as a reward in any of the (what I believe to be) last two subs.

    Everyone: Hulk covers comes when HULK JOINS SHIELD AND ITS A NODE ON THE MAIN EVENT. THAT IS HOW YOU KNOW YOU WILL GET A HULK OR NOT OK?

    No need to shout. Very few current players have done this event before and the Sentry event handed his cover out in the last sub, so there's no rhyme or reason to it. Since it's easy to miss things with the 12-hr subs, it's clearly of some concern when there's a potential 3* being handed out for neither rank nor progression.

    Thank you for making it clear, though.

    very few current players have done this event before? I guess 166 players only pvp then or they magically beat me there

    I'm just surprised some of these other vets didn't say anything because this question is getting asked every other comment

    It's not even on the wiki either. I guess it isn't really public info
