    Just checking in on my old alliance. I'm glad you guys are doing so well. I also really like the way you keep in communication with each other in the chat room. Keep up the good work XStatiX!

    Nice to see in game chat - more convenient than having to manage it one the forums. We seem to be holding our own in this event to score a Human Torch cover which is great. I have fond this event easier to stay in the top than the last. I have usually been ~top 10 when the new missions start. I will say, the red ISO values seem very low, though, which means that I don't know if it will even be possible to get some of the higher progression rewards like the Cap covers I am missing.


    Agree Dinobot

    I've easily been able to hit top 10 multiply times..the rewards are so low however

    This is what concerns me. We had this with a pervious event a while back. I would like to grab some Steve Rogers covers

    I missed out on the OBW thing as by the time she came out I had Spidey as my main support character. My level 10 works great in my tanking team with Juggernaut. I see no end of teams with a maxed version of her along with somebody with strike tiles (A Wolverine is a good fit) and she seems like a versatile character for PVP and PVE. I haven't used him loads, but Modern Magneto works great as a battery for OBW or Spidey. Lazy Thor seems like he will be amazing when maxed. I would probably go for OBW first if I was you.

    So the highlights of R50

    Alliances

    - S.H.I.E.L.D. code hackers have subverted a portion of H.A.M.M.E.R. communications frequencies that have enabled them to allow Agents that are in Alliances to talk directly to one another. Alliance Chat may be accessed from within the Alliance tab.
    - Alliance Leaderboards now occupy their own tab instead of using multiple taps to get there.
    - S.H.I.E.L.D. has improved their Alliance member tracking technology and now allows members to view the individual Event scores within an Alliance.
    - The top three Alliance players in an Event are indicated by trophies next to their names on the Alliance Leaderboards. S.H.I.E.L.D. congratulates the top performers!


    My Take
    - In Game Chat is a no brainer. we all knew it was coming
    - The ability to see Individual Event scores also was a known thing to come. it was an easy upgrade
    - The Trophies are a nice touch. sounds like they are only going to be active during an event and not stored a list of accomplishments. Too bad for that cause bragging points are always fun

    Oh that all sounds good, it'll make things so much better. Hopefully they'll also eventually add an option for pooling HP so everyone can contribute a little toward a new spot instead of one person having to put up a large amount.

    So the Best there is Event allows us the ability to win more Steve Rogers covers

    Top 50 solo or top 100 for Alliance.

    Anyone going to make a run of it ?

    Hi I will be trying for top 50 but the finish time is **** for me as I am in GMT so suspect I might not make it. Will shield up to try and keep the alliance points at least.

    Yes I am moving around in this as well, only getting in one round per set of nodes at the mo but still in top 100 at the moment but points are nowhere near enough. I am only around 17-18k so unless they go up massively there is no chance of getting a SR. But I did get my 4th cover from the first progression reward.

    Could someone let me know how many hours are left for Best There Is? Is it a noon EST stop time or Midnight? I wanted to push for the cap covers for the PVP event starting tonight featuring him.

    There are just under 15 hours left.

    I've got right around 500 pts in The Best There Is and sitting in the top 20. I'll probably push that up to 600 or so later on this afternoon. I am in a seemingly easy bracket, but maybe everyone is just waiting til the end to make a big push. Last time 600 was good enough in my bracket for top 10 so depending how high I can go later I might shield up for the last few hours and hope for the best.

    Have you guys been enjoying the Iso-8 PvE? Part of me likes the fact that I don't have to spend hours grinding away in order to finish well, but the missions have been kinda boring and for the most part not all that difficult. Throw in the fact that the progression rewards seem unobtainable and there are no sub events and you realize rewards have gone WAY down for this event compared to all the PvEs run recently. Leaves a bad taste in your mouth.

    I played a bit at lunch and am sitting at #1 in my bracket with just over 25k points. I have a feeling there will be a large scale point ramp this weekend, otherwise I just don't see anyone obtaining any of the higher progression rewards.

    I will be shooting for top 10 in the Best There Is Bracket tonight but without a leveled wolverine it might be a bit tough for me. At least I have all three versions so I can be a bit choosier about who to skip and face.

    Sitting in 7th with 500 points at the moment. I am going to push hard in a couple of hours time and then shield up. We are 151st at the moment, but no way to tell how many points we are off a top 100 place.

    ISO-8 has been a nice change of pace after the last big PVE, but I really hope the points ramp up.

    First Avenger is for GSBW covers which I don't need. I would be happy to get some points if it helped others get covers, but I don't know if we can get a top 100 place.

    I have enjoyed a mission that allows you to still win **** but allows you to rest as well


    I'll be hitting Best There Is in a few hours. I would like to see us hit top 100 for that event

    Noobprime has joined us.

    I have put my shield up at 801 points, just before I would have got hit for 30 points. It looks like we are 140th overall at the moment.

    Now at 722 in 7th - really hoping i can eke out another 30+ points before shielding. The whole rest of the top 10 is shielded and that would put me at #5 at least. I was asking the event thread if they knew where the top 100 mark was, I think we're at least a good 6-700 points away at the moment. Still have moved up to #132 though, so making progress! Anyone who hasn't joined yet planning on giving it a go for an hour or two for a couple hundred points? It'd be really sweet to win that extra Cap cover, but I'll be happy with the extra hp regardless icon_e_smile.gif.

    hi guys, glad to be here. i just jumped from 100 to 300 in the event and hope to finish at around 500 or so depending on some luck and health packs.

    Man, had to wait for a health pack after my OBW was downed and got attacked for 50-ish points. Got back to 737 and shielded at 6th place. Be back at the end to grind a little more, but the nodes are starting to look super scary with almost maxed patches and 141s when I was previously just seeing A.Wolvie and 85s which I can handle just fine with my 73 A.Wolvie, 85 Thor and 56 OBW. Good luck guys!

    I have just shielded at 605 we are 114 in alliance. I got hit so many times took me about 20 fights to get from 550 to 600. Way too late for me so this is it for this tourney.

    Ps I won't be in the first avenger one much but will go for a few hindered to help the alliance out.
