For me, lvl scaling meant mobs were north of lvl 200, apart from the 1st match up in the "easy" sub event. I placed in the top 5 for the 2 events and and finished top 5 in the psylocke pvp event (joined a bracket 14 hrs before tournament end). So that's roughly 3 hours to get to roughly 700ish pts in the pvp and about 6-7 hours doing the pve sub-events. yeah so way too much time spent. edit: That was for the last 24 hours and I'm not even going to do the math for the time spent all week on the event. How do you get to 700 points in 3 hours, don't you run out of health packs or are you running multiple teams, I can't get to 300 in one sitting before having to quit due to lack of healthy heroes.

The work is already done, they would just have to tweak the rewards and put it up. It would mean additonal player engagement once they finish the existing prologue, especially if no events are running that interest that player.

For deliberately late starting bracket, 141 Punisher, 85 OBW, 55 boosted psylocke was the team I was running most of the time - I also have a 5 blue lvl 50ish spider man I use when I really need to stun for PVE. I try to finish every round with full health basically by exploiting OBWs heal. OBW died a few times during my run and I exploited pve healing when I lost too much health (Funnily enough a lvl 69 Daken can be such a PITA). The other thing to note is that I have deliberately tanked my MMR rating so for most of my run I was seeing 2* rosters and donor/relatively low level psylockes so it was a pretty easy run to 700. Winner in my bracket was 850 to my 2nd place in the low 700s. I basically stopped there because I started getting attacked around that point level.

But the concept of the week+ long event with 10+ sub events was quite novel. A dedicated player scoring 4 Event Recruit Tokens(ERTs?) at once was very engaging. Did anyone else notice the game AI hard-targeting Psylocke in the last sub-events? I put the game down after my 2/3/2 L33 Psyke got pasted 3 fights in a row(2 with L49 Spidey in team!). Plus, wasn't shooting for the BP covers: mainly in it for progression. Anywho, lets all look forward to ep. 5, featuring The Iron Patriot(Dark Avengers Iron Man)!
