    This event is so drawn out and tedious. Seven day PVE needs to die. Horribly.

    Agreed. I'm so ready for this event to be over. Why must I want every new character? Damn you, MPQ. icon_lol.gif

    Characters? Placement? I've been so busy hoovering up ISO I'd forgotten...

    It will be nice to get a War Machine cover, but I'm just happy I was able to max out GT ahead of getting her cover from Daken's event.

    I am just doing the event for double iso. I clear every node 4 times, all trivial nodes an additional 3 times to get all rewards and then spot grind - which means grind nodes until I get the 1000 iso and 1 CP reward. I still won't get a War Machine cover as I only rank 150 in my slice even though I will probably have finished progression by tonight with one whole sub-event to go. Wish I was in that other guys slice....it's examples like this that really tick off the player base and why there are so many calls for "reasonable" progression only PvE. My opinion of that is that you keep the current progression track the same meaning 3 full clears will still get you the 25 CP and you throw in two 3* covers and an additional 1500 iso before the 25 CP and two 4* covers and 2500 iso afterwards for those who wish to grind. That way everyone knows exactly what they are playing for....no easy or hard slices like it is now.

    Or at least stop releasing new 4* through 7 day events

    but player participation/engagement was way up for this one...

    There's a special place in hell for whoever decided that the last CP node on the last sub of a seven day event should be Hood/Juggernaut/Venom with Kingpin purple and Red Hulk purple as the TUs. There's an equally special place for RNG this event for me, but that's another story...

    I was amazed how hard people in my bracket went for Warmachine. When I saw that 4 clears plus the full seven on the CP node put me outside the Top 400 in the first sub, I knew it was time to stop trying. This was as bad as the test events for being grindy. I guess double iso + new character does that. Ah well, double iso and minimal effort is a win in my book for seven day PVE's against the Dark Avengers...

    It has to be the ISO, right? I pulled a WM green in my most flukey event token moment ever and I'm not even sure I'm going to roster him, he looks like junk. Countdowns and more countdowns. Yawn.

    Nope I really want Warmachine for his red (won't earn it on this event but one day icon_e_smile.gif )

    There are some 4*s that generate strike tiles but not many and have you faced Ultron bots before? How frustrating trying to match strike tiles away only for more to drop.

    Warmachine and Punisher combo YES PLEASE

    Let me stun my ally after he has dropped a countdown (which I want to stay on the board) and power up my other ability whilst doing so....

    Now if Prof X whilst invisible doesn't get stunned (need to test I don't have the right punisher cards) then that would be one hell of an amazing combination.

    I played Punisher and Howard the Duck in one of the trivial nodes here, and as I recall invisible Howard still got stunned by Punisher.

    That's a shame and doesn't make much sense and no one else can stun an invisible character, but oh well.

    Still stand by a maxed Punisher and Warmachine would be epic shame I won't find out till 2019 icon_razz.gif

    beware 1* venom. all aoes get applied and an aoe stun is included there. mbw might too, but haven't experienced that one. I have experienced px getting sunned while inviz by venom.

    I got bad news for you, War Machine produces these eattack.png while Punisher requires these strike.png for more damage.

    Attack tiles are not the same as strike tiles.

    One of my alliance finished top 10 with 44500 points. In slice 5 Moon Roach is back in about #70 on 108000, something like 50000 behind the leader.

    <sigh>

    This was really sick I finished with over 120k points and finished outside top 100. How is it possible?

    Finished with 160k and didn't make top 10. Still happy with 2 warmachine covers and oodles of Iso.

    I placed #46, and did not receive the War Machine Green. Help!
