    Where is everyone on the overall point progression? I'm at 61,940...I've been trying to get at least 10,000 per day. I've gone over that which is good, I am shooting for the 8,000 ISO progression reward.

    Just under 68,000 right now. Getting that Red Punisher (my first) will be sweet. Having even 1-cover Retribution on Punisher missions would make Hulk matches go by a lot faster.

    Also, dem low enemy levels. icon_e_biggrin.gif
  • The event is fun and all, but I'm stuck in a cycle of never ending 20 ISO & have 2-3 open rewards in all missions.

    So frustrating

    140 000 points to get the 8000 ISO reward, which is totally doable since we're not even at the mid-point of this event yet.

    Im so sick of fighting Ares, holy hell is this guy annoying when he is powered up and 120+. Any attack from him puts you in trouble, it's kind of insane.

    Same thing. Not all of them dropped, just some. Now they look more like I would have expected for the sub events, with a mix of moderate level and hard level missions. Where earlier everything was very hard level. Was taking me 10-15 minutes per battle before because I had to be so ridiculously careful to deny colors.

    me too, I was starting to get worried that by day 8, I'd have to fight lvl 400s or something. Looks like mostly the essential fights dropped levels, i.e. ones that require Punisher/Panther.

    After getting no psylockes in my 20+ assault tokens, I've gotten 2 blue BP so far. To bad it's not his black though.

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

    I have level 85 OStorm, MWolverine, Captain America
    Level 69 Daken and MNMagneto
    Level 43 Ares, Patch, Spider-Man
    Level 38 OBW, Hulk
    Level30 Punisher
    Level 15-25 Magneto, Daredevil, Psylock, Doom, iM40, & Ragnorak

    I have actually for a while now been in a situation where I have a ton of ISO8 and just waiting on covers to use it on. So those heroic covers are important!

    Mehhhhhhh. I have 3 near-max 2* and low BP/Punisher: I'm at #291 before my final sub runs. #YOLO icon_lol.gif
  • Since I don't care much for the rewards, I was considering tanking the event after I saw the high levels on these locations, but I checked 1 hour ago and levels dropped so I decided to go for a top 100 in the subs for the tokens and the HP. I think many were discouraged and left after the first 1-2 days. I just can't think of another explanation for my rank in main (#2800). If this continues I may aim for 100k and the 2K ISO and maybe top 100 if it won't need too much effort.

    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. icon_e_sad.gif

    Heroic tokens are good too. When a new 4 star is released, you'll want to have as many as possible.

    But the new 3*s are not in heroic yet and when a new 4* is released, it will not be in the pack right away... I need immediate gratification!
  • Anyone got average sorts of points per full clear off the top of there heads?

    Yeah, what happened? I was quite happy where I was, but now I have to grind like crazy again because EVERYONE can suddenly grind like crazy. Bleah.

    Mine didn't plummet. And I'm not even doing that well.

    Separate point... when did the sub-element rewards turn into Heroic Recruit Tokens, rather than event recruit tokens?

    I *think* the tokens change halfway through the event? If so, the current token will revert to heroic as soon as the clock strikes. And it seems they won't put the new token/packs up until the event hits.

    If this isn't the case I'm sure a lot of emails will be sent off about this.
  • I'm a bit conflicted on the way this event is going. On the one hand, it's nice to see scaling working even better. On the other hand, I don't feel even remotely the same challenge as before. How is it that the supposedly harder difficulty brackets are pitting my level 110+ team (2 actual base level, 1 buffed theoretical level) against only level 23 enemies?

    Don't get me wrong, I will take the free iso and rewards, but it seems that base level scaling should be taken up a notch or two in order to give the challenge. I really didn't mind the challenge of enemies above 170+. At least then I put thought into playing the game then go "herp derp, random matches that doesn't even matter" ends up winning regardless.
  • That was fun chasing Nemek for the top of the Sahara bracket. Finished 1-2 with him. Very nice. icon_cool.gif
  • Oh look generic heroic reward tokens, pbbbtttt. :C
  • Well I don't know what happened but I too got the level drop too and I am sooo damn happy! lol after fighting 230 battles in every match this whole event where one mistake screws you this is such a relief! Thank the devs!
