    I thought that's how the Heroic events work. Every new section of the event (don't know what the official/accepted term is) has "reinforcements." I believe a 1, 2, and 3*. Once your current section is up, Moonstone will be gone and replaced by another 2*.

    It's one of the biggest reason these Heroic events are sucky.

    I was hoping they would at least get rid of cMags or something. I can make a boosted storm team work icon_e_sad.gif

    Moonstone? Second sub has Captain Marvel replace her as the two star. We've always had moonstone throughout this event.
    Easy mistake, though. Moonstone invades our brains.
  • Beast got the boot too. I was actually using him.

    Heroics are so horrible.
    Definitely a highlight time of when I take my time to other games.

    If they really are making us go through this ****, give us a base loaner of all the characters as an option.

    I've had it with heroics personally. I was on the fence at first. It makes you try new teams etc, but essentials already do that.

    They need to either lower scaling or give out health packs faster during heroics Imo.

    Or level the buffs in this event. All red or all orange buffs.


    Because the limited roster most players are more likely to have 1 or 2 buffed characters mess up the scaling for the rest of their team that they don't use as often.

    This event my if 166 buffed (red crystal) to 260 is doing the trick. My 120-130 3* that I'm forced to use that are only orange boosted can't keep up. My other 166s I can't use, nor my 4* that I have covered well.

    It makes a bigger spread to levels on my roster than most events.

    If we can't use our entire roster and have teams w good synergy then why do we have them.
  • Heroics are actually my favorite of the PVE events. icon_e_sad.gif

    Moonstone is weekly powered up, she wasn't a reinforcement, and will be up for all 3 nodes.

    Patch + IF + Falcon = easy points.
  • Why is this such an issue? 202 Fist, 180 Punisher, 4* Captain America.

    For those having to use Moonstone, her red power is great. At level 150, she's doing 678 base damage & 347/red tile on the board. There is no cap to the damage potential. If you have a well leveled BP, he's good as well.

    Edit: Just a while later, I switched my team to Fist, FalCap, & CMags.
  • I am a fan of variety, so I'm OK with the concept of a limited roster for events. I will say, however, that this definitely affects vets much less than it affects up-and-coming players. My middling 3-star roster couldn't really fill out more than a single halfway-decent team. Without covers for most of the boosted characters, you're left with a level 150 Mags, who is best synergizing with a powerful blue, a watered-down IF, Patch, CMags and KK, and 1-star Iron Man. I did most of the 2nd sub using IF, 2*Magneto and IM35. Not ideal.
