  • Gigas, out of curiousity, did you get your name from Super Robot Wars?

    It's one of Hugo's Super Arts in Street Fighter 3 Third Strike.
  • Oic. There was a Gigas mech with Breaker move in SRW, so I was just wondering, lol

    I wouldn't say it is useless. Underwhelming? Probably. But who knows maybe there will be one level with an unlock with something cool like a Psylocke or Black Panther Cover

    I assumed we would get a free DD after gathering all that "intelligence" in Thick as Thieves. I do not think we can expect free Event covers anymore.
    Well, expecting fairness and decency from the devs seems to be too much to ask, so free stuff is just insane.

    PS - Psylocke is a ton of fun!

    Totally agree.
  • I think I missed this, is the point reset time 12, 10 or 8 hours?

    I'm finding this event boring and tedious already. 10 days of this?
  • I find this event considerably less grindy because there are quite a few goons fight. Patch + Psylocke kills them very fast. Yes I have Magneto for backup but he's usually just there to dig out any problematic CD tiles with his blue, because Berserker Rage + Psi-Katana kills goons so fast there's no reason to waste time with the animation on Magneto's relatively lengthy abilities when you're matching for 1K and attack tile for 1K every round.
  • This event seems decent so far. Is it 8 hours or 12 hours? I assume 8 since the subs are only open for 24.

    Its definitely not 12 hours as Peru 1 just refreshed on me and I was not doing it at 6.30 this morning as I was still asleep. Would it not be fun that refreshes are a random time between 8 and 12 hours!
  • I think I just had a reset, and based on my terrible memory... it is probably 9 h

    I can't care the less about Black Panther, other than getting at least one cover for the mandatory future pve missions, but I think I just fell in love with Psyloke, so I will be focusing on the subs, to get those top 5 with the least required effort.

    On a side note, my first token from progression got me a red DD. Not too bad.

    Why don't you like the black panther? He's as tanky as im40, has a semi-relevant yellow, and has an aoe similar to sniper rifle.

    Kinda sucks that we can't unlock the iso lab in Peru by the way, we're so close yet so far away, sigh.

    What are you liking about the new chica? not sure about her blue power yet but hard to tell at lvl 1
  • Anyone know how Peru ended?
  • I ended top 50 in peru (yay another cap cover!). My bracket did not unlock the bonus mission.

    And rewards are broken again, I just got two "two star" standard tokens instead of the event-specific tokens.
  • Top 5 and Top 10 finishes

    Holy ****, the enemy levels actually still look reasonable for these subs (identical to the first subs when they opened I'm guessing). Did the devs actually fix scaling?
