    Beat the final node on the 2nd attempt.

    Really hope that wasn't all there was to the event.

    You know that part in Avengers 2 where Thor asks "Is that all you've got?" Careful what you wish for..... icon_e_confused.gif

    Has anyone compared to see if this is scaling? I have a 250/250/lots of 166.

    Edit: oh right, you can repeat but no points, so I can fill in early nodes

    Node 1 was 155/155/155
    Node 2 was 185/186/185
    Node 3 was "level range 151-163"
    Node 4 was level 208/208/209
    Node 5 was "level range 188-189"

    I went with Steve Rogers and Hood - my go-to team for these long waves. Once you get a couple of Peacemakers down on the field, you basically stop taking damage. I also found pretty decent utility out of the 70 Ant-Man, nullifying opponent strike/attacks and generating some strikes/attacks of his own. Hood there just to get the AP a little bit faster and getting Cap's shield to return faster.

    Thank you very much Nemek! Used these two on my second attempt and worked like a charm! icon_e_biggrin.gif
  • Yes there is scaling. My description says Level Range: 89-90

    I beat node 5 with Falcon and Cage. It helped that Sentry came in round 2 and did sacrifice, which ant man promptly stole. Falcon beefed up the ant man tiles, and even though he died in round 3, I had enough built up to cruise the rest. A wind storm tu helped freeze Gorgon in the last round to make things much easier.

    The key to any survival node for me is, as always Steve. Brought him and Captain Marvel which gives me two characters who can stun, extremely powerful protect tiles and going into the last two waves with 30 red each time makes it a snap. You need Steve because there are a lot of potential attack and strike tiles to overwrite. Loved this mini event. Only died once against the 4th node with Thor, Hulk and Steve due to not being able to pull enough black for Cyclops and then miscalculating when I pulled the pin on Patch's green.

    Based on Inner Space Cadet, does this mean Devil Dinosaur is Dark Avengers Squirrel Girl? icon_e_wink.gif

    That's....unfortunate. I was hoping these would be "like DDQ" - that is, not impossible for low level rosters, but just a small bit of time and nothing difficult for the higher level rosters. I like easy/fast matches.

    Cap/Hood/Antman did it for me, welcome Scott to my roster! Once you get a couple blue and red shields going with Cap, hood just for stealing the and occasional timer cooldown, Antman purple for goons,

    Make sure you finish the wave with a red shield throw and have a blue ready to stun the one that can move the board..

    finished with about 12 antman purple attack tiles, dozens of shield tiles, and 3-4 CD tiles on the board at any given time lol... was afraid to make a match, didn't want to lose any!!

    With a big '30 day' PvE event, why does this post exist?

    It's truly annoying that we have to guess what happens on stuff like this.

    But yeah, I kinda hope they didn't think this would take 30 days to beat, since it took under 30 minutes.

    I used thor, mags, storm for the first wave.

    Antman, kamela. and thor for the second wave.

    Kamala and Thor worked very well on the last survival node. No problems or risky situations at any moment. Thanks for the tip.

    Am I right to assume that it refreshes tomorrow? Kinda weird there's 1 progression reward for a 30 day event...

    They did say it was like DDQ , so i expect it may refresh with different color covers

    I'm hoping more icon_antman.png covers to be won in the next 29 days of this event. I won't be surprised that scaling is gonna be ramped up to the point we're "satisfied" with how many covers we've got ;p

    It's the other way around, if you want to keep the Wave # is the rarity pattern. icon_e_biggrin.gif

    I wonder which pair of characters would be keep the theme going?

    Do you have a 94 3/5/5 cap?

    If you do, bring him with 94 wolvie (can heal himself and add strikes to augment antman purple)

    Did it with obw/cstorm by accident - i think raging tempests were involved. Could try with obw/someone tankier like thor. Bring stun tus.

    Used a lot of antman powers and it was down to him vs the last wave on his own. He's a level 70 loaner, but a fully covered 4*. At your levels, that means he will hit very much above his weight class.
