I have **Wolvie on my roster and the jumping around red power when it is getting matched by myself overwrites all of my own strike tiles

and that is so stupid. why would any hero team up with a blind guy that **** with your strike tiles?

so **** stupid.

in this tournament does it do the whole 8 hour thing were the points increase after 8 hours

Well, it is pretty clear what happened. The variable used for level scaling was kept from the previous event instead of being reset.

I did a hundred or more missions in TaT at lvl 230, guess what I get rewarded with lvl 230 missions from the freaking beginning. Basically if this does not get fixed soon I will have to skip the whole event. More time to play better games, I guess?

Spidey, GSBW, Wolvie week

Are they actually beatable with that squad turul? In other words, unscathed and not by the skin of your teeth...

Spidey stun locking whole team, so he can beat anything, if theres enough blue.
with GSBW you can feed wolvie with green. (or nuke the team if u have full green GSBW)

Thanks.

Sounds doable, but probably quite stressful again. As much as I want to level up DD, not sure I want to be dealing with the **** that this entails.

Especially since daredevils tiles are so out of whack ATM.

After 3 battles I think Im gonna skip this one, not sure yet. Anyway, good luck with those HAMMMER guys matching your buffed Daredevil traps. Seriously, may the fortune be with you.

If there was any proof that the game's direction is just plain evil and screwed, here you have one. Funny and extremely sad at the same time.

Daredevil seems to be terrible least in these missions. Not the best set to highlight him in. Goons don't match tiles and Daken's Strike tiles are eating up all my traps. Like it has hit a trap everytime.

Same. I'm starting with lvl 20. Routinely flooring your fights throughout one of these events is the way to go. It takes a little extra time (~2 minutes every match or two to tank a set or two of missions), but I rode it to top 10 overall and top 5 in every single sub on TaT.

after an hour, my whole roster died against level 201 dakan +2asses.

77 daredevil thats provided.
130 spiderman (i thought he was 141 earlier)

And for the 100th time, "tanking" is not fun and an asinine requirement to win. I wonder when the devs are going to realize this...

Lvl 230 and I sold a majority of my roster...gonna be fun

Nice. My intro mission's only 145. Hope Daredevil can solo it, since I don't have anyone else I'm allowed to use in much of a practical state. Oh, Hawkeye's @50 and hides a lot, I guess. Nice to know that dynamic difficulty code is fixed up right and proper.

Are we sure this "game" isn't some bizarre experiment intended to test the limits of people's patience?

I'm not with the patience camp, but I will say this....Without Spidey I wouldn't be able to do anything in this tourney...in this game period. Good luck to you sir. Only used 1 health pack so far. Gonna be brutal.

Glad the devs have made a great game with a fun user experience

I especially enjoy how the devs went out of their way to remove tanking in pvp to only introduce a pve system that requires it

I'm not saying it's good design.

I'm not saying it's fun.

I'm just saying it's the way to win, and it's what I did.

Also, I'm clearly not proud.

After the first mission (36lv, 10 point) I thought I'd try the Oscopr Connection mission (116lv, 60 points). Barely made it with the Wolverine, Widow modern, Iron Man 35 standing with 500hp left each. Oh, and the match? Way too slow with these heroes.

Imo, this event is a gift to the Spiderman owners before the nerf since his broken blue and yellow may be the only thing that makes the event beatable. It's like saying
"We know you put some effort in leveling Spiderman whom you will sell for ~1500 HP in the future, so before the nerf we'll make sure you get some rewards."

I can't find any other explanation why a clearly broken character who is getting a nerf in the near future is one of the few allowed in this event and other balanced characters like Patch (balanced for now at least) or Ares who were made available recently are not.

my wife just joined, she has a much lower roster and skipped much of ToT. Her first fight is all level 10's.

My first fight are all level 168, and I hear of people seeing 198s and even 230s.

Dedicated players are being brutalized by this method and it is no wonder why the people with 1* rosters took the trophy on ToT. I cant even play this event

and really? 1st place is 1 DD cover on a 5 day event?

Update...

Wife did her level 10 mission, next one was 77. Seriously, this benefits no one.

At this point, I would be perfectly happy if all they did was put up the hulk event again with different rewards.

Huh. My Spidey only has one blue cover (2/1/2), so that will be tough for me (and of course my GSBW is 0/1/1). I wonder if I might be best off using the 5/5 M Widow, although a single AoE countdown tile would certainly wipe her out. Will have to experiment.

I bet the Hulk event would have the PvE MMR in it now. Seems like they've added it as a game-wide system for events.

Edit: I'm kinda excited for this one, as I've been slowly investing in IW (129 now), and with a buff I'll get the chance to see how she really plays at max.

She's not boosted. Only Daredevil is boosted.

Well, that's a bummer, guess she's still benched - although on second thought, against the goons-only missions Grant Invis is probably a guaranteed win, even if the other two characters get wiped. Goons can't match, and by the time a goon-CD tile creates a lucky cascade to hit your tile you've probably already won or matched enough yellow to cloak again.

I don't think there's any scaling in the event itself. Don't think tanking or winning does anything to the mobs levels. No idea what is being used to determine the initial levels but they don't seem to fluctuate.
