Predator and Prey PvP Tournament - March 3rd-5th

Mawtful

I'd love some IM40 covers. Unfortunately, I'm lacking BP covers. Not sure how far I'll get on the loaner cover.

Unknown

2/2/2 BP, just pumped 17K ISO into him and he's at a cover-capped 51

Yellow 29
Blue 26
Black 23

Battleplan: 35 strength Strike Tile
Defense Grid: 25 strength protect Tile
Rage of the Panther: 903

Why is the 300 reward a heroic token and not a predator and prey token.
That must be a bug.

I think I prefer Heroic Token over this one, as the Predator n Prey can grant You only Bullseye, Wolvie, Thor or BP (and Captain maybe, as the Token is vibranium related?).

Yeah I pumped my 2/2/2 BP up to level 50 as well

So if we were to do super basic math, 51 * 3 = 151 ~ 141. 903 * 3 = 2707 damage at max level? might not scale as crazily as we think it does, but we obviously would need someone to confirm.
Edit: forgot that it was only level 2 black, damn it. Level 5 is 645 damage according to IceIX, so 2707 * (645/347)=5k damage, which means that it probably DOES scale as crazily as we think it does. BP new Rags, OP!

Keep in mind damage goes up per cover.

Err, that's only 2 in black. The next 3 black will upgrade his damage too. It's 1161 at level 3 (I have 2/2/2 maxed as well), so even just using that, that's 3483 damage, which is already better than Ballistac Salvo and encroaching on Sniper Rifle range, for a considerably less cost, and that's only 3 black.

Also I ran some quick experiment. Strongest color means the highest tile strength of someone who is still alive, so for the seed teams that'd usually be yellow (strongest color of BP). I killed BP and did Rage on Storm/Juggernaut and they got 5 green AP instead, and they're both level 1 so no way their strength is higher than BP.

2.7k with just 2 covers isn't too shabby.

Level 2 -> 5 increases the damage of rage by 185%.

1.85*2707 = 5000. Hmm.

There's going to be some kind of bloodbath when people get this guy to level 141. I wouldn't spend $ to level him up though because it seems certain it'll be nerfed, but if you got some spare iso/HP sitting around it is definitely worth it. His abilities look pretty solid and even if they just eliminated his black he'd still be a pretty good tank so I think it's a safe investment, as long as it's not $.

I have no idea how this character got past QA: it doesn't take much thought to realize that 5k damage to the entire enemy team might be a tad overpowered.

You're assuming they QA.

I guess they thought giving the enemy 5 AP would be enough of a drawback...

NorthernPolarity

On another note, i wonder why the 300 prog reward changed from the event token like it normally is to just a standard heroic token...

Unknown

Perhaps for every increment in black, plus 5 AP to an additional colour pool.

Unknown

if BP does get full level 5 black damage of 5K, that is insane and... waits for incoming nerf!

Unknown

I'm only at 129 points and am already getting the same 4-5 opponents.

They probably thought it's giving 5 AP of ALL colors, and even that isn't much of a drawback when the enemy team is usually dead.

Unknown

How long before we see 141 BP running around?

I got a feeling it happened like 5 minutes ago

Unknown

Ok, grinded my way to Heroic Token and put on the tank team. Feel free to kick my bagbutt.
