    Hello Salky. We will try to help as much as we can.

    Jymm leaving was actually his toddler getting hold of his phone so he returned and then was promoted to help with the late push in God of Lies. We managed to surge from outside the top 100 to 75th in the end.

    Top Gun gives us the chance to try out our newly upgraded Falcons icon_e_biggrin.gif to win Rangnarok covers icon_e_sad.gif. We were in the top 100 of the simulator at the end of the last sub so all is right with the world.

    These rewards now leave me with a fully covered Falcon (yay!). Even though he's not awesome, he at least seems fun. You guys think I should put more levels into him? I think I have him around 90 or so at the moment. I guess I'll be running him with Punisher and cMags, which has been my go-to team lately, and the Punisher synergy is nice. My problem is having a million guys I want to level, BP with 11 covers, Patch fully covered, Mags with 12, Sentry with 11, Hulk with 11. I've been so un-focused and just throwing around 5 levels here and there, saving a little in case I need to level up a featured hero to a usable level.

    At this stage you're mostly limited to the nodes in Prologue (the story chapters) that have HP. Find them and repeat them until you get those HP. It might take a while since you'll need to level up your characters to be strong enough to do them all. The only other "easy" way is to do well in the PvE sub events. It might be hard this go-round without a human torch to do the essentials though. Being brand new is somewhat nice in that your enemy levels in the PvE events will stay really low for quite a while, so you should be able to do pretty well once you get to the point where you can beat them pretty easily.

    edit: check here for any HP you've missed or where to find more as you move forward.

    Thanks, it helps!

    Got another question. I'm playing that Top Gun event and all my battles are red now with opponents 10x stronger than me.
    How can i get someone my level? I keep losing position cause of that, cant attack but i'm being attacked icon_e_sad.gif

    You are still in the very early days of the game and so doing well in the PVP will take some time. At the moment you just need to do what you can to improve your roster so anything which earns iso is good. You can skip opponents in the PVP but after a few it starts to cost iso which you can't afford to lose at the moment. I see you already have a couple of Thor covers which is excellent as he is one of the strongest 2* characters. How far have you got through the story missions so far?

    Yeah i waitied for both covers to sell my Hawkeye and claim them.
    Finished Juggs story, now in Venom but that Dark Avengers BW battles (2) are still hard for me. And i havent done last node there yet. Think i have 4 more standard tokens, holding them till i get more roster space.
    I was hoping to get in top 300 again cause i wanted 2nd cover for my OBW.
    All i can do now are those Lightning Rounds, again till i start getting badass opponents

    Yes LRs are good, just get whatever you can out of them in terms of iso. It all helps to get your characters levelled up and if you can beat 3 teams then you should get a nice bit of iso and hit the first token. As the alliance gets built up a bit more then you should start to pick up some better rewards from that as well.

    Yeah, it seems I need A LOT of ISO to lvl up characters.
    Thanks for help icon_e_smile.gif

    One thing Limee forgot to mention about skipping people in PvP is they eliminated the "skip tax" for retaliations. Oops, I'm a little ahead of myself. Those red nodes you mentioned are retaliation nodes from people who attacked you. These teams will often be higher level than you, especially early on in the game, so you'll usually want to just skip them. There's no need to try to fight them only to get your team wiped. Once you skip through all the red nodes, you should get back to other beginner-type teams that you will be able to beat.

    Good point my learned friend. That actually came up in the in game chat today as did the fact that Salky/Sale007 is Croatian which is cool.

    mohio Posts: 1,690 Chairperson of the Boards
    I have now wondered a few times how you're in both chats at same time and then remembered you made another account (or had one already) that is in the other alliance. oops!

    I had a friend in high school who was Croatian and one of my best friends now is a Bosnian dude (they're cool with each other right?). Okay, well I'm off to run errands and get out of town. Hopefully will be able to do some in Falcon PvP tonight and tomorrow morning before wedding events get in full swing.

    This game is all about the roster health management these days. Having the PVE and PVP end at the same time 3 events in a row is a cash grab. At this point, with the glacial pace of change, I honestly wonder how long the game can survive.

    sale007m hoard your HP from events, play when you can in PVP and put HP ONLY into roster slots. The first 2 months will be tough but after that you should be fine. Also consider hoarding tokens as well since you won't be able to use them till you have a big enough roster and you don't want to be selling 3*s ever if you can.

    @mohio: yeah Bosnians and Croatians are ok, Serbians and Croatians have bad history, but only small-minded people on both sides still hold the grudge. So if you ask me we are all ok icon_e_smile.gif
    You are having a wedding? Congrats!

    @noobprime: yep, saving HP for roster but my priblem is is accidently spent that starting 100is HP on IronMan skill icon_e_sad.gif
    For now i'm saving my tokens - got 6 standard and i'm around 60-70 in Season 3. Thats 5 Heroic tokens, unless i get into top 50 for that 10package icon_e_smile.gif

    Time for an update:

    Sooshi has joined the main alliance to replace the chairman and CEO of our new casual alliance PVPunisher, so welcome to Sooshi.

    XStatIIX has added TenormanTears who I believe is Comac on the forums, or just someone who happended to apply at the same time as Comac hasn't replied to my last PM. Have I told you how much I love it when people don't read/respond to PMs. icon_e_biggrin.gif Salky and Jymm are in the early stages of the game and seem to be getting some good advice from people which is good to see. TenormanTears looks to be in a similar situation so hopefully we can provide the same assistance when they finally check in. Ruval is a more experienced player who is slowing it down for a while. I would guess we might pick up 1 to 2 more of a similar ilk after the completion of season 3.

    We are in the home stretch and we are going to need a big effort to get the top 100 finish and the third Nick Fury cover. I thought we all might need some inspiration, Season 2 was Churchill, Season 3 is Duke.
    No stoppin now, you start and you don't stop. All your strength, all your power, all your love, everything you got!

    To win you got to grind it out, you've got to grind, grind till you can't grind no more. This is your whole life here. Do it now. NOW!

    I'm guessing most of you here are Marvel fans, does any of you play Marvel Avengers Alliance on Facebook? icon_e_biggrin.gif

    I am a Marvel fan, but I have never played Avengers Alliance. Any good?

    Yup, its really great game, a lot of Marvel heroes and villains but i wouldnt recommend anyone to start it.
    I'm veteran there, max level and having all heroes and if i had to start from 0 again i would give up.
    There is just too much to do and new players have to farm A LOT to get all heroes. So... i wouldn't recommend you to start it cause it will take a while till you can catch up with old players and fully participate PvE events (that give free hero if you can complete - currently Cannonball)
