24821 here, waiting for refresh tonight as well0
-
I'm at 27121 and am working less than every in one of these tournament. I'm trying to stay in the 10-20th position, as soon I drop out, I play my highest scoring match available and jump right back up.
The rubber banding is crazy, and I'm still working on finding the sweet spot. So far what I've learned for a fact is that grinding to get the lead early will KILL you when it counts. This game ends up penalizing the hard grinders as I discovered myself in the juggernaut event0 -
I just linked my FB account to MPQ. I only use the account for this game and want to start sharing some rewards
Please Friend me on FB if interested...say something about MPQ or the alliance. My e mail is djsquillz@aol.com
Thanks.

The most critical thing is to time your last refresh so you can grind the last hour or two of the event with fully refreshed stacks.
Doing the highest scoring available mission whenever you drop out of the top 20 is probably sub-optimal unless you're closely managing your refresh stack. Each mission can be repeated 5 times before it drops to 1 point. You get 100% of the value on the 1st run, then 80%, 60%, 40%, and 20% on subsequent runs. Each of those runs has a separate refresh timer, which appears to be 12 hours in this event.
As an example, say someone runs the same mission with the following pattern:
01:00 - 1st run (100%)
04:00 - 2nd run (80%)
08:00 - 3rd run (60%)
14:00 - 4th run (80% - the first two runs have refreshed)
17:00 - 5th run (60%)
21:00 - 6th run (60% - the 3rd run refreshed)
total: 440%
Someone else does:
01:00 - 1st run (100%)
01:05 - 2nd run (80%)
01:10 - 3rd run (60%)
14:00 - 4th run (100% - the first three runs have refreshed)
14:05 - 5th run (80%)
14:10 - 6th run (60%)
total: 480%
The second player had nearly a 10% overall higher base level mission scoring by timing runs into two batches that started at 100% instead of spreading out the runs such that the mission never reached 100% again after the first run. This gap gets even bigger if the first player ground the base mission values lower.0 -
I have 32025 points, I can get more, but I have to wait for health packs to refresh
I'm doing pretty awesome with this event, no holds bars event too I'm doing quite well in, I'm currently rank 7th and I haven't got my points back up from being attacked, I was 1st, I have around 400 points on it. I don't think anyone wants Daredevil haha, but I'm doing it for the isos mostly.
I finished Punisher today and moving on to Patch to 141. I just realized it was stupid of me to level everyone at once instead of just focusing on one guy. Get the 3 main guys I want to use the most and then move on to extra guys I will use. Magneto is next. Doing Patch first instead of Magneto cause I have more covers for him.0 -
I'm in a really lazy no holds barred bracket. I had no intentions of competing, just wanted to hit 300 to get token. Did that yesterday, haven't played again and I'm still in 9th. The leader only sits at 396. I may make a run at it close til end, the event ends at midnight for me though, so I can't be up at the end since I have work Monday am0
-
I did the climb up to 300 this am to dig out the heroic token. Put me in 4th in my bracket. I then inserted my tank team as usual (level 6 moon/ares/wolvie with lots of covers) and am enjoying the slide back0
-
Same Detts. I ran up to 500 to get the hero points and then threw my tank team up. It's pretty funny losing 30-40 points at a time (when you aren't actually going for a win). I could just imagine how furious I would be if I were actually trying to maintain my position.0

Looks like SHIELD finally woke up. They're closing in on us quick0
-
Heh. Rubberbanded to #1 in hard, #3 in easy and #1 overall. The 12 hour thing seems to be working well. The shield guys doing the big rubberbanding owe me a beer.0
-
alright fellas. im sitting jn 1st in botb subs and 4 th overall. ill be grinding this thing again once i wake up and then right before the end. lets get those top rewards.

How far back were when you started to go for it? I'm hoping to stay in striking distance, but don't want to be too far back, or too close. Still trying to work out the rubber banding. I'm sitting 9th in easy, 12th in hard. Was lingering back close to 20th earlier in the day, and looks to me like the launch from 20th would have been less grinding than launching from 9th. Wouldn't taking the lead now hurt when it gets closer to the end?
Overall our average works out to over 30k per person, not too shabby0 -

overall, i was like 47 before i made this push. in hard, i was 4th. and in easy, i was somewhere in the top 10...all before this push
my life schedule is flexible, so i should be able to maintain this for the entire event.
Go DP Tacos!

I've been going back and forth doing about 1-2 run throughs of the easiest nodes before noon, then before midnight. I'm in 50th, then jump to top 5, then back to 50th, then back to top 5 in the subs, right now I am sitting in 2nd in easy, and 4th in hard, just because I didn't feel like grinding an extra 5 nodes just to get a temporary 1st...I'll do it tomorrow night before midnight.
It looks like deadly venoms are going ot be our main competition.0 -
1st in no holds bars, hopefully I can keep it.0

At 36k total after one pass through each of easy and hard sub events. At 1st and 8th in my subs--was 1st on the hard sub by 3k when I first completed, but drifted back to 8th in the 12 hours since then. Should grab 1st again shortly--just about to hit full refresh on the hard event so will do my second pass through there. Planning for 1 refresh on the easy sub and 2 on the hard. Currently 60th in my main.
I'm primarily just doing 2, sometimes 3 runs of each node. Ran my rubber band all the way down to 1.00x on the hard and 1.4x on the easy, which should mean I was within reasonable distance of the overall sub leaders after those initial runs. Hard rubber band is back up to 5x now, so expecting this next run through hard to put me at 1st in my main bracket.
Have my Psylocke up to level 95 and still leveling as I pick up ISO. She hits like a ton of bricks with the huge event buff. Primarily using a team of Psylocke/Punisher/OBW.
edit: mission accomplished. 1st in main and both subs with a total of 42k, set up for final refresh. One of our "unknown" members Original is in my main btw, top 10 at 40.2k.

Just posting to show activity. Currently sitting at Rank 5 overall with 40329 points. Normal Mode at 4th. Hard Mode at 2nd.0

I need to wait till the morning to get a refresh on points, all too low at the moment. But by then, It should spike me up over 45k points.0
-
I cleared my AM refresh between 9:45-11:00 AM. I'm back in first for the subs and 4th overall.
I'll be able to make one final full point clear before the sub close out tonight.

I finished 10am est 2nd overall, 1st easy, 2nd hard. Will be able to go back and forth between easy and hard the last 2 hrs.0
