  • Okay, to anyone interested, I too can confirm interval for stacks to reset is 8hrs.

    (Unless it's 8.5. Definitely under 9 hour and above 7hour that's for sure. Let's just assume it's 8.)

    May I ask how exactly measure your reset intervals? If I play at night before going to sleep and wake up in the morning a lot more people would have played and earned points. This would inflate my points per mission because of the rubberbanding.

    Unless I am there checking the score every hour or so and see a significant increase, I can't be certain...
  • Even though the point value aren't as ridiculous as the last event (so you can always tell something refreshed at 10X modifier), it's still not that hard to make an educated guess at what the max is. For example if I do Captain America mission first, followed by the Psylocke mission in Nambia, those two missions have the same value so if I noticed one went up and the other did not, that means the Captain America refreshed and the other did that and I can use that to figure out how long it took to refresh. 8 hours looks about right based on my observation too. You can certainly get 3 full stacks in in 24 hours and that'd be impossible if it was 12 hours.

    Your not taking the time to complete them into account.

    It wouldn't be possible to finish 3 stacks in 24 hours on a 12 hour refresh even if it took you 1 second to finish a match.
  • No way in hell I'm doing 3 refrshes in 24 hours of level 230s.....pushing myself to do 2.

    Thinking of just doing them 2 hours before and just that. What do you guys think about the point system if you just just wait towards the end? Higher point values for each mission?
  • The usual ****. Approaching end of 2nd run my brakcket leader, Sandmaker with 24k points (requires full sweep in both arenas), 19/19 roster: 61 daken, 45 captain, 37 cstorm, 35 im35, the rest below 30. The guy has 1/1/1 psylocke but no punisher that is required for some battles.

    Im doing 2 clears per sub event. So far I have won 2 of them and I'm on my way to win next 2 ones. So you must be doing something wrong if you need to clear them 3 times.

    Im quite sure you can get 24k with skipping one mission. I'm not going to tell you if that guy is legit or not but he does have captain and storm and both are buffed. If his level arent high enough he can easy do both subs.
  • People are pushing hard on this event. I've actually fought more than I usually do and I'm still 10k out of first place (overall).

    I am sitting on 27K in the main and I only doing 3 refreshes killing each mission twice. Each cycle of 20 missions in total take me the best part of 2 hours there no way I am grinding them all down to zero that would take me 5 hours each refresh or 15 hours a day OUCH!

    However 24K seems very possible even missing a whole stack if you grind they harder.
  • Those "unidentified " mutants are generating SO much ap every turn. Im glad I have Obw.
  • The "community" target for the "easy" sub is 145M. Was not reached in first and we're going nowhere near this time either. (For the hard it is way lower and fell before halftime.)

    Doesn't make much sense. Is that 1k ISO such a treasure?

    Try grinding 2 cycles instead of 3. Im at 26.3k (with enough stacks to grind to 27k) and ive done 2 clears per sub. I think i do the missions until they give less than 100ish points.

    The point was you must fight a plenty of 180+ matches for that, and you can't win them with that roster for sure. I doubt even a 3x100 could be. So the guy is either a cheat or the game is way more broken as it looked. I saw weak rosters and by the end it's natural to see them winnig subs, but here we're at start and talking about the main table.

    Well looks like its about that time again. Third day in and event is becoming unplayable for me. Shame because I have enjoyed it so far. The Iso-8 Lab India unlock mission is three 230s for me. If the unlocking mission is all 230s I imagine only 230s wait for me in that subevent.

    EDIT: Is there a way to lower levels or has my active participation thus far doomed me for the rest of the event?

    EDIT2: 0/7 on Psylocke covers from event tokens but at least I got 2 DDs

    Due to scaling hes probably seeing level 70s instead of the 180s that you see.
  • Wow, 2 cap covers from my 2* tokens. Thanks for nothing.
  • Just got 3 C.Storm and M. Magneto from the tockens icon_cry.gif
  • 0 in 7 for psylocke in tokens .... /sigh
