Can someone give me pointer on how to beat the hard entry encounter? It is a level 190 Rag/Hulk/Venom, all over 11k hp. I do not have Spidey, or maxed 3 stars. I refuse to use boosts, as with this many hp only +dmg makes sense, but that still takes too long. E.g. my 85 Thor with 7,7k hp got hit for 6.6 k with one cascade... I have tried other hero combinations, with no avail.

All my fights in this even have been 150+ while my roster is topped up at 85. Daken at those levels is insult to injury.
As it stands I cannot get into the hard sub.

So if anyone knows how to get these levels down to manageable, I would be very grateful. Losing over and over is not doing it, I actually notice increase in levels.

I got into the easy sub finally with maxed CStorm, MN Magneto and OBW (again it is a joke that I failed every time I used a buffed team), but seeing the sub missions, I will probably will be able to do ~3. (Bullseye, Daken, Hulk in desert, l154. really...?)

Use cstorm mnmag and punisher with 5 red. Use ap boosts to quickly stun hulk with storm. Thats what i did.

The fights against Bullseye + Daken is just so exhausting, especially when the ai spams oasis. Does this event really go on for another week? Sigh.

Channeling thier inner dark souls for the release of dark souls 2.

I can't believe I used to go for all green checkmarks back in the first Hulk.

Having Wolverine pumping out 150 damage strike tiles makes the missions way easier. He can pretty much fight anything there straight up and the only thing that can kill him is a Headbutt or a pre nerf Ragnarok Thunderclap on every turn. With triple boosts you can start with 4X150 strike tiles as soon as the fight begins.

This is frustrating. I am in the transitioning into 2 star phase (Wolverine usable, Storm just usable, Thor and Black Widow a bit further back) but can't seem to touch the level 40/50 hulk with 5k health to even get into the sub events now. With Daken's purple, I can't get past.

I guess boosted characters are helping a little, but only just.

The desert is a very powerful enviornment. Get like 2 Oasis and you'll have enough green to run some pretty insane combos with Storm.

If you got Patch you can just do Berserker Rage, Oasis, Berserker Rage, and repeat until you run out and doing about 20K damage in the process.

This is starting to get very unfun. Been walking on eggshells these most recent two subs with all the mobs 150-230 level.

I only have two covers for him, so basically not currently usable.

I managed to just get through one mission but lost the other. Not really happening. Might try again later.

Man, either people are getting burnt out early, or they're really sleeping on those main mission nodes. I've done the same 2 refreshes each sub, none down to 1 point, but I've been steadily creeping up the rankings. #240 after the first subs, #200 after the second, and now #33? Highest placement yet with no increase in grinding. I can dig it.

Count me among those burnt out. Personally, while I certainly would appreciate winning those Thor covers, it's not exactly the most exciting of prizes. Plus without the old buffed wolverine, the battles are much slower this time. My battles aren't at the un-winnable point, but they sure are frustrating. I suppose tedious would be the best way to describe it.

Mine aren't up there yet, but they are to the point that one unlucky cascade kills at least one character and probably dooms my team. The scaling is much slower than in previous events, which is good, but it looks like something close to a one-way ratchet. If that continues, I'll be locked out of the second half of the event...again. I was able to recover somewhat on the last day of the Brotherhood event by tanking, but it looks like the devs have shut that down, and I don't know if there is a way to recover.

I think I'm gonna tap out of this one

It's too much having to fight these 150/150/150 1* and2* characters in ever event. When by turn three Daken and Bullseye both have multiple SUPER ATTACK and SUPER PROTECT tiles out I just can't be bothered to move on to the 18k Hulk, 15k Juggs and 11K venom.

And the prize can go and **** itself.

A single clear of each mission is more than enough to keep me in the top 1k and the enemy levels low. I'm counting on the grinders not only for rubberbanding points but also burning out!

Huh just realized the hard sub is the only one with 500 ISO rewards

I honestly didn't realise this was split between easy/hard, everything is 180+

gosh i miss out so many discussion... but from what i get sub event has little rubberbending effect in it and generate more point as your rank drop lower... then as for the overall bracket main mission.. it seen it refresh every 8 hours for all the 3 mission... the max pts is 1000 so doing sub event will not affect other sub event pts and the main bracket i believe.... gosh i been busy whole day and time for me catch up with the rest XD

The "hard" sub also nets overall more points, so it's better to focus on it if your levels are similar.

This scaling is killing me. Keeping in the top 800 is like impossible and I have like 3-4 maxed out 2* characters. If this isn't fixed I'm gonna burn out and quit the game this sucks.

I gave up trying to be competitive in PvE events. This event started fine, with lvl 30 missions quite easy to beat, Its the 2-3rd day and every mission is at least lvl 120 while I have only lvl85 maxed heroes. This systems really sucks, I prefered when I wasn't able to do all the fights because they were programmed to be high lvl for the high lvl roosters, but that was the same for everyone, so I could at least try to compete against people of similar roosters than me. Right now we have lvl 50s getting 3* heroes while some of us are trying to do the transition from our maxed out for weeks 2* heroes to 3* ones, but we are unable because we can't compete due to the insane scaling system.

On PvP at least if the MMR don't troll me I can compete against similar roosters, try to get so 400-500 points and shield, this usually is the amount needed to be top 45 and get 1 3* cover. Is slow because I can't always get to that rank, but at least I get some chance to get 3* covers.

If the covers were a bit lower on HP costs, I would lvl some of my heroes spending some HP/money, but right now 1250 for 1 single cover is a bit unreasonable (500 for a 3* covers would be fine by me, even 750, it would be hard/expensive to get those many points, but more doable).

If the best you have is only have 4 maxed 2* characters you shouldn't be in the top 800.

Why is it that all of a sudden they changed the token reward from a "hulk pack" to a 2* pack. What kind of bull **** is this? Makes it extra hand to get a black panther to use in the FORCED PANTHER NODES!

Unknown

I'm heavily assuming the heroic tokens are a bug as a result of how the old Hulks worked - at this point it'd be transitioning from the Powered Up tokens to Gamma Bomb tokens. Please oh please don't make me get Heroics for my efforts, or I (and several others) will be filing a buttload of tickets.

Bingo. Maybe they want you to shell out some sheckles for BP. Probably too many people pulled him from the tokens. Not me of course

I hope it an error. If not I'm gonna be pissed. If there isn't a chance to get a panther without buying him is a slap in the face.
