    I think the difference is in Venom Heroic it took your 5*'s out of the equation this time.

    In Venom Bomb if I'm not mistaken there is that (those?) horrible Venom/Carnage node - no thanks.

    The very last node has Venom, Carnage, and a goon that feeds both of them.

    At least they downgraded the symbiotes a bit this time... It remains to be seen whether Venom Bomb is palatable or not though.

    With the return of Duck Season, will we be seeing Howard in the vault on the 30th (after Ghost Rider)? I have a pretty good Savory vault right now and want to know if it would be worth cashing in or waiting until Howard is featured.

    Hi-Fi said there are no plans for a Howard DDQ right now, so I don't think you need to wait.

    I'm hoping this is a move towards 4* PVP, and greater integration of 4*s into the game as a whole.

    Last 4* rerun PvP was in April, so I guess we might have another for Christmas...
    I'd love it if Howard followed Peggy's example and had two fourstar covers as PvP progression rewards though...

    There's more to it than that. The last 4* rerun, IIRC, was Elektra around the launch of Daredevil Season 2 on Netflix (IIRC, they ran Daredevil, Elektra and Punisher PvPs the week of release). The only thing I can think of coming up is that they may re-run Quake for the premiere of the new season of Agents of SHIELD.

    not looking forward to buffed 4*'s and 2 maxed 5*'s pvp's. too much of a health pack sink and also long fights. i think only one that would like the idea of 4* PvP's are ones with maxed out 5*'s. if they were to not allow 5*'s in pvp, i think some would change their tune.

    Is anyone seeing a preview for the next PVE event? Shouldn't it be starting in 8 hours?

    Also, I think it's supposed to be Webbed Wonder. Isn't that a 3-day event? Maybe it won't start until Monday and there will be a "day off" on Sunday?

    I would rather have something to do today icon_neutral.gif

    Could join Nefarious Foes early, and get smashed into negative rating by 5* Goblins, but that's not my idea of fun icon_neutral.gif
