    Over-levelled jugs and daken, with kitty character selection for nerfed rags reward and 3* storm progression?

    I think you missed an opportunity by not making IW the 4*...

    I normally enjoy Heroic mode, but subpar character selection and odd prize structure makes it difficult to be excited about this.

    I can't help wonder what the next PvE will be though since a featured villain limits the possibilities significantly. We just had a Simulator and Prodigal Sun, and if it introduces a new character the Gauntlet would be an odd choice. Deadpool vs MPQ maybe?
    We also had DPvsMPQ recently. I think the most likely scenario is the Gauntlet and we don't get a new character.

    Gauntlet with no new character seems possible. I don't think we've had "The Hulk" in awhile or maybe Unstable Iso8?

    Unstable ISO seems to have been taken out of rotation. Which is good, because it's very noticeable that it was the very first PvE event designed.
    I'd have prefered a Gauntlet now with a blue Ragnarok as the final reward, but that might not work for the PvE schedule I suppose. The final reward might be Black Panther then.

    Thor and Black Widow are a good combo to start. Anyone of the others could be in the third spot.
    Keep in mind that the available characters will change in the next sub. Hopefully it will be someone more playable than Squirrel Girl and 2* Cap.

    The plan for me is progression rewards. No since in grinding for a t20 place for a cover of a character I'll never use. Besides there is likely to be better odds at getting rags blue in his upcoming PVP.

    I wouldn't bet on it being better odds since the new cover tends to be the top 5 prize. I guess it depends on what the RNG has in store.

    this event is so bad, and roster so limited I actually used my standard stockpile to build a MBO. most powerful stun out of characters available

    Hmm, let's see... Juggernaut and Sentry with a red feeder, Ares with red and green feeders... oh wait, it's time for Lightning Rounds. Never mind.

    I can´t play this PVE. I wiped on 3 amigos 3 times. I don´t even have last node unlocked.
    The level is "trivial", it clearly punishes me for 270 XF and GT.

    Once again, game is broken. Once again, proof that devs are not playing theirs game.

    Edit: I just passed that node, only to be wiped twice on Ares - Goons node.
    I used all 3 healtpacks and still didn´t open all levels.
    Congratulation, developers!

    I am not feeling this PvE - on just about every level.

    Actually, Susan's power is noticably better! She covers the person with the lowest hp, while Prof X only covers himself. That's worth twice the cost, right?

    Seriously, though, we all know IW is terrible. D3 is working on it, I believe she's next. We'll see what they come up with before we gripe, eh?

    It was just a naughty joke icon_twisted.gif
    Beside, I agree that she's probably next to be reworked and to be fair I'm one of those who are impatient to see that!
    After all it will take me several months (maybe more) to earn enough covers for Prof X while I already have a well covered IW icon_e_wink.gif

    Consider D3 just "worked on" ragnarok.

    Fact(s): the required character for the next PVE is a villain, and the events that normally feature villains have been recently run. It is also probable that the next PVE would be the time to compete for a new character.

    Speculation: the next PVE will be a new event, villain-centric.

    There could be another PvE in-between considering we just got Professor X. I could see Deadpool vs MPQ or The Gauntlet as the next PvE.

    Oh man, Professor X invisibility is sweet! He takes no damage until the tile is matched away, and I just had him demolish Juggernaut and Sentry one match 3 at a time LOL!

    I often think that it might be fun to restart my account from scratch, then I play a heroic and realize how much I like my stable of 3* characters.

    "Demolish"? That kind of grind seems ... the perfect description of everything MPQ these days (except for the awesome DDQs and 8 hour refresh times ofc)
