PVE: ISO-8 Brotherhood (2015-12-17 to 2015-12-24)

I'm a little confused by the 3 star vs 2 star powered up. It leaves only two 2 star powered up this event including essential. Will confirm once the event starts.

Also interesting to note: Looks like this 7 day event starts double rewards (at least and , but not ). Hopefully this is a new trend for 7 day events (and maybe eventually we can get the doubled too!). Additionally, progression reward costs have decreased vs the previous iteration, although only a bit for .

Oops, my mistake. Good catch. Corrected now.

Malcrof

We had 2 PVE's with higher then normal progressions, now 2 in a row with lower than previous progression. I think they are doing a test, hopefully the lower progressions win!

Jam_Adams

yes, a whopping 2,000 points less.

hesjingixen

Yeah, I'm not too concerned about the progression. What I AM concerned about is another 7 day character release pve What's worse.....a 7day character release pve that ends on Christmas Eve day. Way to be in the holiday spirit D3.

Maybe Xmas day we will get given a free LT and a one day Miles event ... or maybe we won't

Not looking forward to trying to hit top 100 on this event though as I don't have Reed and currently am missing 2* Hawkeye

rowdster

Fwiw, I got through first round with Hawkeye, switch, kk, no heals. You get two burst powers to trigger Hawkeye and a healer. Fun! I mostly only boosted blue/purple.

Quebbster

I have almost two weeks off work over Christmas, I say bring it on.

How full is shard 3 in iso pve?

Ruinate

Having a lot of fun screwing around with HB/4*Cyclops/2*Magneto. HB/4*Cyclops/IF when it's serious time.

fmftint

They need to test 2 progression on 7 day events

mrcheddar

I'm having lots of luck with 3* cap marvel, lazy cap and switch. Weak yellow and weakish green but all 3 have a stun. Which is nice.

Well, that didn't keep working for me. I just patch/Loki/XXX and with daken as able with just 1 heal. Much better I think.

What a varied bunch of nodes.

Ares, goons
Ares, Moons, goon
goons
Ares, Moons, Rag
Juggs, Ares, Moons
Juggs, Ares, Yelena
Juggs, Moons, Yelena
Ares, Moons, Yelena
Juggs, Moons, Rag
Juggs, Rag, goon

This might be one of the most annoying events with Moonstone stealing everything, Bullseye setting off protection tiles and jugs and ares crushing your health packs....

I feel like this is just a lazy event by the staff

Azoth658

Wow this hood sub event is really pushing some of my puzzling skills just to get through the harder nodes.

Have to keep up the pace though as I'm looking likely to get the second Miles reward.

Looking forward to be out of a 7 day event though rewards feel miles away.

Tatercat

Yeah the Hood/Doom combo is really making me nostalgic for the multiple Juggs and Ares beating I got yesterday. At least there, I could plan for the inevitable damage by positioning 3* Captain Marvel to take the hit and letting her fuel red and black to heavy damagers like Cyclops and especially Hulkbuster for quick downs.
But with Hood still draining as you try to down him 1st, it's not a question if Doom will get off Diabolical plot or Summon Demons, but how many times will he do it? My previous strategy still works to a degree and I full cleared it this morning, but I'm not looking forward to the next few passes tonight.

Punisher5784

I find myself using Patch, Daken and Loki for 80% of the nodes.

I was focusing on stunlocking with Scarlett Witch and Steve Rogers whilst building Luke Cage for instant downs with his yellow.

Especially by picking up as many purple as possible you can stop diabolical plot from happening.

Jam_Adams

Colombia VII was brutal. (is that the Hood/Doom node you guys are talking about?)

Adding Rags in there makes it stupid hard.

I went with a team of 3* , and while I punted blue and purple completely, I was able to churn out a butt load of red, yellow and black.
