    this wouldn't be so bad if there weren't so many entry nodes to begin each sub. and several of those entries have jugs. that means guaranteed damage before you even start the sub with a limited roster, even if its not a lot of damage, you don't start fresh and if you don't have a deep roster, that puts you way behind. made it through sub 2 without waiting for healtpacks but had to wait 10 min on sub 1. we'll see how sub 3 goes.

    yuck - not looking forward to any of these without any ap control. good luck with that - looking forward to making it to the panther progression then I think I'm done. some hp from t50 in a couple of subs and bp yellow and throw in a im40 red, I'm satisfied with that.

    The first 2 aren't that bad. I used my 140 5/4/4 BP, 140 3/3/5 IF and 1 0/5 MBW. MBW is buffed to 36 and I can't recall the other 2. I am a usually a fan of 1 character / 2 goon nodes, unless the character has cheap abilities like Ares or jugg

    I personally cannot wait to duke it out for top spot in Slice 5 with Davyx.

    3* Mags is definitely dangerous, but do those goons feed him any of his colors? Looks like mostly green & purple goons.

    I think you're right - I got criterion and control mixed up. control feeds blue but criterion only purple I think. maybe black too but can't remember. mags with a blue feeder sux bad.

    Why do all NPC nodes have intimidation now?

    Skipped that last node because Kingpin + yellow feeder + intimidation teamup? Really?

    Stream is up for Juggernaut subevent 2, was tired so definitely made some mistakes...

    You know, after throwing every team I have at level 300+ teams in gauntlet, constantly wiping, then loading up to find Juggy starting at 126, I'm kinda over this.

    How many points are in the final node? Trying to do the math to see if I am going to hit the final progression here.

    Love the Beastie Boys reference the devs snuck in the sub names. Perfect for a romp through New York.

    Even with only a 1/0/1 Hulkbuster, Stormneto + Hulkbuster has been kind of fun. I think taking two weeks off PVE while I was on a vacation gifted me an easy bracket to boot. This is easily my most enjoyable Juggernaut Heroic...which I realize says absolutely nothing icon_e_smile.gif

    Buffed IF is making round 3 so much fun! Hoarding black for easy kills with his purple making magneto and Ldaken almost pointless.

    My IF is only 0/2/1, so this is the first time I've been able to try him at all. Pairing him with BP is so much fun, I look forward to having him at a usable level icon_e_smile.gif.

    The competition on this event has been a lot more fierce than I expected. Im not sure if Ill crack even top 100 or not, because for every node, I've been kicked down to 200-100 right before the subevent closes. Im guessing people are fighting for the fury cover, because I thought IM40 was pretty poorly thought of?

    I suspect that a lot of people are skipping the event (I am) because of the prizes, which means that the people participating are more likely to either need the covers or be the kind of players who always play PVEs hard. It means a much higher percentage of people than usual are truly competing in it.
