    Not a typo, the 3* reward is at a new 600 point level, Peggy is at 800 and 1000.

    This seems too "done on purpose" to be an accident like that Mystique cover replacing a two star cover a few weeks ago! Rejoice!

    I guess hoping this is the new reward format for PvP would be pointless...

    This would be the first PVP in a long time that I bothered to go to 1000pts. I really hope this becomes the norm at least for new character release PVPs, and its not just a one-off "75 yrs of Cap" thing (which I suspect it is).

    I quite like this event. Normally I really, really hate the 4* events; the character has too few covers to be useful and is at best incidental, at worst a handicap.

    But even the loaner Peggy is good.

    I just wish that all 4* were useable at 1/1/1.

    Anyway, after reading her character thread I had a go at using XFDP and Thing. Gosh that's a fun team.

    This plus the horrible boosted 4*s this week mean every fight is winnable, which is making climbing pretty darn easy.

    Peggy's yellow introduces an actual element of strategy into this game that is often lacking. Do you take her down first to get her yellow out of play, or ignore her to focus on other threats, knowing your abilities will take longer to fire? And you can't ignore her 3-turn stun on her blue, either.

    This feels like one of the most "level playing field" PVPs in recent memory. The mediocre-to-bad set of boosted characters plus the fact almost everyone is using the loaner achieves that. Kinda makes me wish we'd get an "everyone must use this loaner" PVP more often.

    I've been running plain old champed but unboosted Cage & Fist, have beaten every 3* team I've taken on, and even scored a few defensive wins. I did get clobbered overnight (from 650 down to about 470) but am making that ground back this morning. Hoping I can at least hit 800.

    yeah climbing was really simple. hits still poured in once I crossed 1100 but only 2 heath packs used. and with taking the heroic off, wasn't too late of a night. I enjoy the 4* pvps since it saves on healthpacks and equalizes rosters some. chance at 2K.

    edit: I can't remember another time when the loaner 4* was ever my first priority. getting her below the threshold was my first move on every match. I like her and think she'll be very useful in many different areas.

    Now that the pvp is over. I can give my advice so that it won't be used against me. Heck you don't need to take peggy down to disable the yellow cover. Just read the cover description. Most people don't have her fully covered in yellow. So you only need to take enough hp off to disable the yellow. I think as long as she is at 40% hp, her yellow activates. Anything lower and it doesn't. That's still like around 5000-6000 hp which isn't easy.

    The loaner had around 9100 health, so once I got her to 4500 I usually switched to a more dangerous target. If they gathered enough blue that DaPS was becoming a threat, I'd switch back to finish her off.
