  • Hm ends in 12 hours. I guess that means I start doing them again in about 10.5-11 hours...

    Ok, so I need some advice. I am pretty early on in the game at the moment, so I don't have all the covers I'd like. All I want out of this tournament is ONE Daredevil cover. That's all I'm asking, since I like collecting heroes.
    Anyway, the best team I can field right now is 47 OBW/28 Patch/someone. I cannot level up Patch anymore (come on Army of One, be kind to me!) but I could level OBW, and I am considering that. My question is: who is a good complement to these two?
    I know you're gonna say Spider-Man; don't have him icon_e_sad.gif . He's the only *** hero I don't have (other than Daredevil, obviously.) I actually used Bag-Man (Lv. 6!) because he utilises yellow for an active power, and with all these damn countdown tiles, it's actually kinda useful. Then I switched to Thor for HIS yellow power, but all he ever does is sit there.
    So now, if you're still with me (sorry...) how about my question? Is there anyone I should consider running with these two?
    (Frankly I could probably just run those two and win most battles, but if I can have someone else, I'd like to!)

    How good is your hood? Active yellow and black and steals AP.

    Iron Man 40 if you have 2 yellow covers will feed them both.

    Ares gives you yellow, but his aoe red is also sensational if you pop it after patch green.
  • I love the way this event is set up. Clearing the missions feels like Space Invaders.

    If you are fighting the Maggie or thugs or whatever they are called and you have at couple blue Magneto covers I recommend him since you can use the blue tiles to wipe out some of the hard to reach CD tiles. For the rest of the villains I recommend someone who can steal AP, either OBW or Hood. Since you do have OBW, use the purple boosts so that you can avoid the heavy hitters unleashing on you and allowing you to use Patch who is quite good with the strike tiles. Otherwise Classic Storm is decent or even Daken or Bullseye,

    Good luck on the DD cover
  • Also hi Eddiemon, let's hope we end up #1 and #2!
  • I've been getting a lot of mileage out of max Doom for the Maggia fights. It's so much easier to keep demon tiles in play and guarantees solid damage even when the board becomes unfavorable. If you've got a stunner - even better.
  • The final fight is quite the pain when you dont have a decent level gsbw icon_lol.gif Got my butt handed to me a bunch of times, good stuff!

    Yeah, I'm not looking forward to the 3rd reset. Maggia are vicious

    Does the ones who played more 1pt missions have harder enemies after reset?

    Yup.

    And apparently the rubberbanding was enough to catch me up to jacobPC with my 2nd set of depletions icon_e_biggrin.gif
  • Just entered the sub-mission for round 2 only to see the enemy levels didn't reset. What a nasty surprise. icon_e_sad.gif I guess there is no point in trying the last mission (IX) with Widow at 1 purple cover and level 15 and without the option to put Ares on the team. Not even losing matches drop the enemy level as some said during the first rotation.

    I managed to beat the mission with a lv15 purple Widow, but it wasn't easy. 85 Wolvie and 101 Punisher. I have a lv51 Patch as well, but I think 2* Wolvie is better for this one because of Daken; you need to use him and Punisher to fill the red tiles before matching green.

    I actually managed to beat that team at 169 level once having a fully boosted team of 15lv Widow, 41lv Patch (with the buff. original lv25) and 85lv Ares. Then it jumped to 224 and I didn't even bother. However if the levels don't drop, I doubt I will try next time. I wish I had a character able to steal AP.
  • Im presently at #1 in my sub and main. I'm assuming that this means something terrible has happened to the rest of the world, and I'm the only person playing.

    No other explanation for it.
  • I'm currently top but can't beat the 230 final mission so won't finish there.

    I'll be happy to get a Patch cover though. Patch + Loki is going to be an interesting combo when he is fixed.
  • Can somebody please advise when the points reset in the subs? Is it after 8 hours or 12 hours?
  • Resets after 8 hours
  • @bughunt Thanks. I've read old posts in this thread as well and Nemek mentioned it reset after 8.
  • What I don't know is if resets affect all missions at the same time. For example, I can start playing with 9 hours left and until I win for a second time the last mission the time left is 8 hours and 10 minutes. Does this mean that a mission will refresh 8 hours after I played that specific mission, all missions refresh 8 hours after I won the first one, or all missions refresh 8 hours after I win the last?

    Not 100% sure but I think it resets after you beat it so you would need to best each if u wanna max it. You can tackle just a few and hope for some rubber banding on the rest but if u are looking to max it all and for a full reset u have to beat the level 1st.
