    Simple solution to the 3/7 day conundrum: have 7 day events award two Legendaries, one at the halfway progression mark, one at the final (current) progression mark. Same outcome as if two 3-day events had been run at the same time. Plus, good PR resulting from a "more achievable" Legendary.

    Win-win for everyone.

    x-23 pvp is supposedly after cmags pvp yet the 1st place isn't x-23, it's falcap. just wondering if the plan is being changed?

    Curious about this as well. Are we getting Weapon Tex-Mex first, with X23's PVP (When I Think About You I Cut Myself) after the weekend?

    I sure hope so. I really need the red Falcap cover from the 1,000 point progression reward coming up next.

    Should have been fixed in the daily patch. X-23 Green should be the Magneto reward. Can you try checking again?

    I suppose the T10 story mode cover being T1 versus cover is, "just coincidence"...
    Again

    X-23 is the first place reward now, when I just checked.

    I hope they aren't running Weapon Tex Mex this week, after all 4pool is boosted and he wouldn't be available for one of the PvP's in that case.

    The Hunt - 3 Day

    I just realised, no one else had mentioned this.. wow! Only one day of Florida.. icon_lol.gif
    Unfortunately, that would put the event end on Sunday. I think it will be a four day event as usual...

    Hope this new character is someone from brand new marvel thats not in game or jessica jones.

    It's getting weird seeing competitor games getting more recent characters and this one getting 2 of the last 4 releases being some form of wolverine.

    There was a previous post about Awesome Hulk coming to the game, that is probably going to be the next 4* in the game.

    In fairness, the latest release is a more recent character (or at least a new take on her) AND a Wolverine. With Marvel Puzzle Quest, you CAN have it all!

    florida wouldn't be so bad if I could identify which nodes will be replayable and which nodes are one-timers. as is I can't tell and have to do every freaking node on my first clear which takes forever. florida is my least favorite pve sub of all of them.

    I don't recall offhand why Florida in The Hunt is so bad. I can't quite remember which sub is which even though we only have the same 6 or 7 PVE events cycled over and over.
    Whichever PVE sub with the crazy high level Hood & Magento node is my least favorite. The 3 top-end nodes in this sub also all have a high level Hood in them, paired with Bulleye and/or Ares. Not fun.

    A close 2nd is whichever PVE sub has the crazy high level Skulls posing as a 1 star Iron Man, Magneto, and a Maggia Don. It was made noticeably harder when Magneto got his nerf and his powerset changed. The Don gave him Blue & Yellow every turn, so you'd get hit with Magneto Shields like every 3 turns, and eventually his Blue.
    This fight has changed the last few runs though, and I think sometimes this node has an Iron Fist in it instead of Magneto for a new kind of torment. I think they switch it around every time it's available, and sometimes it's not nearly as rough as the original setup.

    That's Thick as Thieves, last and first sub.
    Florida has half a dozen or so non-repeatable nodes that needs to be played to unlock repeatable nodes. The high point node has Ares, Daken and Venom. There's a lot of overscaled Dark Avengers in general in The Hunt.

    There's a mention in the video transcript that the other new character for November is somebody who's often-requested. (Lots of Gambit/Nightcrawler speculation.)

    The announcement for Totally Awesome Hulk mentioned December, IIRC. My predictions are Jessica Jones and TAH for December. If there hadn't been the remark about the releases "bookending" the month, I'd say Jessica Jones for a release over the weekend of 11/19-11/23.
