  • Got my Iron Fist this morning, so I'm probably going to green check the easier nodes this evening and stop bothering after that.

    A bunch of people must have stopped playing after they got the icon_ironfist.pngblackflag.png, because one morning of grinding boosted me from 40-something to top ten. I can't complain, my Punisher is terribly covered.

    Random nodes seem to be resetting themselves after Victory.
    This just happened to me on Having A Cabal
    Others have reported it happening on other nodes

    Punisher was probably the single most handed out 3* cover for a long stretch early in the game (except maybe for Lazy Cap), so just about everyone playing actively around then probably has him covered. Some of the nodes here are tough enough that people aren't going to bother with them if they're not getting anything but a bit of ISO out of them.
  • do the events usually chain together?

    winning the iron fist covers from the previous event, set up great to double down and win this one too. Is it a coincidence, or will the punisher be central to the next one also?

    The awarded cover for one event is almost always the essential cover for the next event.

    I love this event. It's short and fun. I wish the other PVEs were like this. Two or three subs only, varying levels and opponents. Je t'aime, DPvMPQ, je t'aime.

    I wish they'd make more events like this - I know the reason WHY they're making 7 day events(not gonna explain it here, different conversation for a different time), but with Deadpool's daily(and PVP), the amount of effort you put into PVE is disproportionate to pretty much every other format of play in MPQ. You're playing 7 days for 2(more if you're competitive/dedicated, but even still you could probably put the same effort into PVP) covers. The only real victory there is to say you're first for new characters.

    this is certainly a fun event. im not sure about the effort thing anymore. with 8 hr refreshes i find im not really putting in what feels like a great deal of effort anymore compared to the old 2 1/2 to 3 hr refreshes. i shoot for top 50. granted the marginal effort to hit top 10 or top 2 is 2 to 3 times whats necessary for top 50, but for me top 50 is that sweet spot between effort and reward and i find it much less work than pvp. with all the hp and tokens available in sub events, the progression awards and then finally the two placement covers, pve is much less taxing for the relative awards than playing the annoying frenzy fest that every pvp seems to be. ive even considered dropping my effort back to hit top 150 in the new character release events since the difference between having 1 vs 2 covers is so small since you basically only use them the next event as the essential anyway. scaling back effort to hit top 150 is maybe three clears a day, which is nothing compared to pvp grind, at least for me.

    Well, we must be in different brackets then, cuz I got the tinykitty kicked out of me in Prodigal Sun. I haven't seen top 50 outside of last minute PVP shenanigans in a longgggggggg time.
  • I haven't played this event nearly enough to get anywhere close to an Iron Fist cover. Haven't really been into the last couple events. Maybe part of it is just because I don't have many characters who get the boosts? I really enjoyed Enemy of the State with the Survival Nodes, as well. Is there any chance the Simulator event will have them?

    Here's hoping. That would make a great event even greater.

    History shows D3 is very lazy with old events. We'll see new heroes/villians on nodes but not much else.
