I managed to delude myself with this one.

"Okay, got some good boosted 3* characters here, it could be fun this time!"

Approx 2 minutes into the 2* required character node...

"Why do symbiote have so much heeeaaaalllth?" :'(

This may just be a scrub player moaning here, do the 4* tier players just stride through all this? Or do you get scaled into misery with us mere mortals? :p

    My 2* required node has 2* Storm against 3 HAMMER goons. Is that not what you're seeing?

    The buff list for this one isn't actually that bad. Kamala and Storm don't necessarily make a great team, but they do both make great centerpieces for their own teams when buffed. I'm not hating it as much as I did last time (which is to say I actually played through a whole sub).

    My mistake, it was the Kamala Khan node :p

    Storm will probably come into her own when you need to stun Carnage out in later missions. Just a shame she's so damn squishy...

    I'm afraid to ask, but how long do matches drag out thanks to the bug (that's been around for far too long without being fixed) that causes a delay every time a countdown tile is placed/fired? I'd imagine it'd be even worse with this event thanks to all of the Symbiotes.

    How dare you ruin a perfectly good Gap Band song by associating it with Venom Bomb?!

    Couldn't help it. It was the first thing my mind thought about and now it's stuck in my head.

    hehhhhh... roughly the same as other pve's. Really wish they'd fix it already, preview of R102 didn't make a mention of it.

    Regarding Venom Bomb's difficulty, it's not as bad as everyone make it to be. I don't like the symbiotes a whole lot but take the time to read all of their abilities and learn to deal with them in the proper order. They're certainly annoying with all their passives and constant CD spam but compared to say, Ultron sentries, I prefer the symbiotes.

    When Carnage shows up with goons feeding him red, I agree that it is total tinykitty though.
