On a more serious note, not sure if I'll be able to keep this pace but I would like more than 1(two now?) covers for her at event end. Grindin'

After the first set of subs, I'm top 20. Two full sets at beginning/8 hours later, then about 1 1/2 hours of grinding in both subs in the 4 hours prior to expiration. Fortunately, this event isn't heroic, meaning that I have more options in terms of characters to use for my grinding. I've done the mnmag/hawkeye/Xavier or cyclops, daken/green user, patch/laken immortal combos already. It's great that I can save my health packs for pvp instead.

I know many people dislike this event, but I love the flood of tokens. With some effort and a good alliance, you'll get at least 36 tokens. I've already pulled a Kamala, a Gamora and a Luke Cage.

My problem with it is how grindy it is. You end up hitting nodes as frequently as when we had 2.5 hour refreshes. It just gets tedious.

Scaling seems to be higher, but not unmanagable(but then agian I just had my Daken jump from 117 to 166 so my sample is probably biased)

This is true. On the other hand...

Pretty pathetic that on one hand we are treated to use once special low popularity characters as prizes, then on the other all the luminaries at de can do is throw overpowered loser characters like ares and juggernaut out to make the game less enjoyable to play for everyone and impossible for 80 percent.

Monochromize

the real question is where are my damn rewards. My sub rewards came almost right away last night, but this morning i'm waiting and waiting....

So I already downvoted you(and probably should just ignore you), but why do you think every character who isn't white and able-bodied is unpopular? You keep leaving these comments around for Professor X/Luke Cage/Kamala Khan, etc.

Dude, you live in a fantasy world. And not the good Marvel-kind.

Does your mom know you downvote people online? I dont think all non white able bodied characters are unpopular at all. Scrape the sand out of your ham wallet. Unpopular characters like this one are unpopular. Why? Because most people with an iq over room temperature know they are socially engineered.

so save your guilt for yourself and dont project it on me. See you in the top 50 only when i dont feel like playing more.

Popular, unpopular, socially engineered, doesn't matter, she has a solid skill set and that makes her desirable

Socially engineered? ROFL.

The creator is Sana Amanat. Here, try to learn something instead of spewing out hate: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sana_Amanat

PS: I'd like to see you make a topic on what characters are "socially engineered" so D3 can "be aware". It'd be a good laugh.

I disagree it does matter - it's cool seeing characters like her(and 4*Thor) being taken seriously on multiple fronts in the marvel universe

really hope for some major rubberbanding in late events

There won't be. 12 hour subs means there's not enough time for people to put in points - RB kicks in only once you're 10K back from the sub leader.

I have been having with sub rewards coming in, too. Yesterday, I was first in two subs. Rewards came in fast saying I finished top10. A bit later I got the extra first place token. Today, I finished second in both. Immediately I had three popup windows, which I kist naturally clicked. Then they stopped. Even if I had been kicked out of second at the very end, I would have only received one set of sub rewards...

yeah, it seems like it's jumped up for me too.....a couple of missions, the "new" mutants have bumped up to level 199 and 200. I don't remember them being that high in the last go-around with this mission a couple of months back.

I'd chalk it up to having better equipped characters with higher levels this time around.

Got mine about 3.5 hours after the sub ended. Not sure what the normal delay is, but that was quite long for me on solo rewards.

Lol, is my memory failing or did they ninja add a 6th repeatable node in Russia (7th being one time ISO node) that isn't trivial? Guess Russia couldn't just be a no-brainer easy single sub break. It's not too bad, Ares/Rags/Moonstone at Normal difficulty, just curious if it was like this last time since all subs seem to just have 5 playable nodes?

Unknown

So the token flood has coughed up a Kamala purple, a gsbw red(sold), and a thora red and blue, so I have to give this event a big smiling thumbs up.

Sorry for the delay. Season ending kept me busy. Hope it still helps!

Was top 5 over the weekend. Now the workweek starts, so time to take a dive. No way I can do anything of worth in these 12am-12pm subs.

Hopefully that's true of approximately 999 other players. But it won't be.
