It's almost a relief to be back to the regular steer manure of 15K health Muscles plopping down +600 damage strike tiles.

And for some reason it's still feel better than Boss Rush...

Do 4 clears in the beginning.
Do 1 clear 24 hours after that.
Do 3 clears in the last 90 minutes.

The Storm cover made her my first 3-star to get up to LVL 200. Only 66 more levels to go before I can start a farm for 3-star characters!

Lower levels should have 2* cover as a reward - I'm asking because I need one slot and I need to know if I can rid of my 1-cover temporary Wolvie+Hawkeye or not

I guess it`s 2*-Cap.

According to the reward chart above, it looks like 2 is the CL3/CL4 prize, which typically means it's the required 2 in the following event. This is along with 3 and 4 .

Of course it's less than 8 times max points, you can't reach that with 24 hour timers.
It's 5 clears at full points, plus 3 clears end grind.

According to my notes, the next required is

Looks like a lot of people don't know how to play this event. In my bracket in slice 5, I was first to 14805 in sub 2. Right now, with another 30 hours to go in this sub, I'm back in #27. Why?!? Not that I really care, that's 26 players I don't have to worry about if I push for placement.

Why are the one time only nodes only 500 ISO and barely any points for progression?

I know in the past we've had nodes that were, like, 3000 ISO and a decent amount of points to make me want to play the node. Especially since they are higher scaled than usual. Now it seems that MAYBE I'll get to it if I'm bored and done with everything else.

Poodlec

Why do they give out as rewards when essential for next event is ? Two-star rewarded in event always essential for next event, right ?

I believe the only one-time nodes with high iso rewards are the ones in Simulator (Simulator 07, I believe) and Iso-8 Brotherhood (I think that's the one, anyway...it's where Magneto teams up with Fury). Those are also substantially more difficult scaled than the one-time nodes in this event.
