Agreed. Spidey to stun, punisher to 1 shot them when they're below 40%. Ares would make a heavy damage 3rd, it'd take too long for you to use Loki's tickery (though omg that's useful). Could sub in obw or hood. Save X-force for last. Daken -> muscle - X. Use boosts. Blue+pink, g/b and +mutant damage (or +3 all if you have the iso or have them stocked). Keep daken tied up when green can be matched. grab yellow to heal/kill daken.

OMG Wow! I did it with the strat you guys advised!
Punisher's Retribution FTW!!!!

2k points and 5k ISO!!! woo hoo!
Thanks!!!!



[Edit] Hmm....now I am thinking if I should do it again for the 1.6k points....

you can buy 3 blue/purple or red/yellow boosts for 200 iso if you still have difficulties.

I know I might be in the minority here, but I am enjoying the event. It's requiring me to think a lot and be more flexible with my roster. Of course, it helps that I have a beefy enough roster to be flexible with. I could see how those that don't have such a luxury would be frustrated.

I haven't had to play a ton and I'm still hovering in the top 15 of all the events.


The only thing that has proven irksome is not being able to respec my Classic Storm. She's on 3 blue and the extra damage 5 blue provides would have been a great asset in these matches.

8The villian team is harder than the xforce team lol. At least with spidey. As long as you keep dakan stunned whenever possible and don't get a really bad tommygun placement (one reason mags is so nice with his blue) you should be fine.

I will also vouch for punisher/spidey/heavy hitter. I was using mag vs xforce and used **wolvie, spidey, IM40 vs the villians (thier hp is low enough its better to just use a save red method to get out tons of wolverine strike tiles. I'M greatly helps with that. Less effective for me but I am sure Im, punisher, spidey would work too vs xforce team.

Also, I saved dakan for last because no insta-heal +slightly lower hp makes xforce easier to kill. It's far easier to win with spidey the faster t make there only 1 enemy left to stun with blue. Basically my very general rule of thumb with spidey is save the highest hp for last. Caveat of that is that I also believe minions are generally to be ko-ed first since they build ap on thier own and at high levels thier abilities hit very hard. So my order on the last mission was muscle, xforce, dakan.

I just...don't feel like redoing many of these missions. I didn't even have to finish all the missions on the hard once to jump into first in my sub though. Is everybody seeing the Same enemy levels? It's 100% community scaling? If so..snikies for a lot of players. If I am lucky I can get top 10 in my main without even mildly grinding missions if that is the case (up by 2k and I haven't even done each mission once yet)

@toxicadam...

I started a day late due to wanting a weaker bracket possibly...but so far I don't mind it. Now, that might be because the lvls are already so hard that I dint NEED to grind to get a high score? Who knows.

The biggest reason I disagree with your kill order is as long as X is alive, the AI will try to match yellow (which will help kill daken). I can definitely see your reasoning for killing the muscle over daken, but daken's healing (or self destruct) give him priority over X in my book. But hey, to each their own.

I use Punisher/Ares/Spidey, and I always kill the Maggia guy first. It's too problematic to keep him stunlocked early if a countdown tile ends up in a bad spot. It doesn't really matter who you kill next, since by that time you should have enough blue to keep them both stunned.

Edit: In retrospect though, I think maybe killing Wolverine first might be better, since he has the lowest HP and it leaves you with only one enemy that can make use of the strike tiles. Killing Daken first doesn't make any sense since he's the hardest to kill and has no actives.

I defeated the Hard Sim4 mission at Level 217 without Spidey. Here's what I did:

Put in L85 OBW (5/5/3 - yeah, not ideal) / L85 C. Storm (5/5/3) / L25 Loki (2 blacks, 0 purple). Used All Colour Stockpile, Blue + Purple Stockpile, and +20% boost against mutants.

Once game started, matched as much blue matches as possible to get C. Storm to unleash windstorm on Daken (and thus stunning him). Then just concentrate Blue, Purple, Green and Black matches while targeting Magia. Leave Daken last. Blue to unleash more Wind Storm on Daken and heal when necessary, Purple for stealing AP by OBW, Green for clearing board, Black to turn strike tiles to protect tiles by Loki. Loki is crazy buffed this round. His Max HP went from 993 to 4148, over 300% buffed.

I use Spidey/oBW/Punisher against xforce team and leave maggia for last - he feeds blue through oBW to Spidey. And it's quite fast team - Punisher's red and black in this fight really shine. I suppose I will never again see field with so many web, strike, attack and CD tiles together.

Where did the event go?
Its not shown in my event list anymore

if possible i gonna save the boost for future use... especially all ap boost for any future difficult level or match up like Mag + Daken + Hood all lv230 since there is still 9 days to go so anything is possible.... i will be dead without those boost if these match up really happened

Frubzy

hey guyz ...my team for most of the matches is spidey for stun, mag for blue gems and patch for damage, its worked well so far , im first in my bracket...
whats the optimum time to wait before i play each mission again? i usually wait about 8 hrs for another do over.

Don't bother keeping more than 7 +all at a time. They are basic progress reward for PvP now. Use em or lose em type mentality for those first 3.

@nihilim

Back out the app. Open it again and it should be fine.

I already see myself waking up at 4-5 am to make my last push in phase 1 -.-
How I hate playing this game in the EU timezones ...

as for me is IM40 to generate ap with its lv3 yellow which include green red and blue which will contribute to my spidey stun and patch offensive ability... able clear the match faster without any difficulty... porbably 8 hours or 12 hours.... the last time it refresh is 5 hours ago....

what's a good combo for doom/hood/mags in hard? I keep on getting hit by mags red since hood provide him with unlimited ap.

with our own Hood... keep steal from each others XD

nope just kidding... use any character with stunlock skill keep stun Hood... like Storm or spidey... then it cannot steal your ap anymore... den focus all your combo on Hood to take him down then only Mag... his cascade ability damn annoying and his translocation can one shot you

Think about how awesome he'll be when he figures out how to use his ISO to level his characters.
