Subs are overlapping. Upcoming subs are greyed out, and have a countdown timer until that sub opens.

    are you sure those are the power up the story said

    which also features a cameo by our favorite giant red Devil Dinosaur.

    also shows the dino on your team .. if the dino is needed that is going to mess over a lot of people since you never got the dino until 1 year mark


    Though does that mean he will be against you or you will need it is beyond me.

    (was already answered seems we get a loaner- hopefully)



    They sure love powering up Rocket & Groot they did it what like 7 times now since nov
  • I'm assuming we're going to have 12-hour-shifted end times for some of the subs, so factor that in when choosing your end time.

    The Savage Land sub has a node where you team up with the Dino. I assume that's what they mean.

    As I said, I'll update around 8 or 9 PM Central time tonight.

    what time to pick what time to pick

    with it being 5.5 instead of 4.5 do you think the nods will change in time or still be 36 36 24?

    i think i might remember playing this. I remember people saying too many nods or something.

    Really, really, REALLY wish you wouldn't do T50 for these D3, that reward structure is an alliance killer.

    And Red DD "reward" for anyone that misses that mark, after having it in current PVP? What a slap in the face.

    Dammit, why a long event with a new 4* right before I go on holiday? I demand compensation for this! D3 should have known I'd be away and miss this character!

    Seriously though, why the hunt? If you'd used Deadpool instead a nice 3 day event I coulda snuck it in before I go XD

    Good luck guys!

    see no problem with only top 50 getting the reward. that is until 4 star becomes main.

    I would rather want a Red DD instead of a bottom 4 star anyways. I would be going for the Red DD if the 4 star would not be needed for the next freaking PVE.. Red DD can use. Whatever cover for the 4 star-- will never use past the next pve.
  • If you want a picture of Top 50, imagine Florida stamping on your health packs' face - forever.

    My most-hated PVE, with a top 50 4* reward structure. Happily taking it easy and just slowly working towards the GSBW progress, the last green I need for her.

    My commiserations to everyone who intends to play this event optimally.
  • I too dislike this event. Wall to wall DA with lots of scaled up Ares and Daken to deal with. Not a fan of the overlapping, repeating subs either. It's not as bad as a Heroic, but it's not my idea of a good time. I feel for anyone who grinds this mess and just misses the top 50. That Daredevil cover is going to look a lot like the game flipping you the bird when the reward pops up.

    Second most, at least it's not Heroic: Juggernaut with a limited roster of the worst characters ever.

    Even still The Hunt sucks and has gotten old very fast. Same enemies as Heroics pretty much. Bloodbath, imcoin.png suck, healthpack.png suck and all that.

    PX deserves a better intro than this.
  • How long is the first sub? With Prof. X in the tokens, I'm probably going to be trying every sub.

    Seriously.

    I made a thread a little while ago about Legendary characters deserving legendary introductions. At the very least, there should be NEW story content for these guys. It's so utterly terribly lazy of the devs. Putting all their effort into pumping out character after character with no worthwhile plot or lore to accompany them.

    Professor X is one of the most powerful, influential and loved characters in the MCU, and this is the intro he gets.

    The **** Hunt.
