Yeah juggs is probably the worst one minor cascade and you lose a guy.

lvl 400s you say

what builds enemies, 10/10/10?

Normal builds just scaled up to 400.

Which means that X-Force Wolverine or IW may be tough, but Juggernaut is going to make you scream tinykitty whenever he hits that headbutt.

yeah I know, I'm just shaking my head. It seems to me that adding resistance a la original PQ and making the AI a sliver smarter would go a long way in making the game more challenging, rather than this nonsense. I guess it's lazier, err, I mean, easier to scale everything.

Well, at least we will not miss out on a new character cover when this all goes haywire 15 minutes after the Event launches.

sorry this is too easy but your name says it all

Hopefully you'll just be facing level 50 enemies since the enemies are supposed to scale to your roster. . .

^ enemies do NOT correspond to one's roster levels. All they correspond to is your personal/community scaling.

Right, so if you did well in the last PvE, and have none of your best characters available to you in this PvE, you're screwed. Hopefully with the changes IceIX mentioned to decrease enemy levels, you'll only be screwed for a little while, but we'll see if it actually works.

My start in hard mode - http://i.imgur.com/LZHFdBs.png 261 lvl
I have 104 lvl bp 3\3\5
Psylocke 90 lvl 4\4\2
Wolvie 50 lvl 5\5\3
HT 1\1\1
m.storm 50 lvl
Hawkeye 50 lvl
Bagman 5\5\3 6 lvl

Event is live, and it comes in Regular and Hard flavors.

MaxCavalera

Yay its up and two rounds and two modes. Much better

Unknown

I am a tad confused though - it appears the rewards brackets for normal and hard are completely separate. So can we really win 6 Steve covers?

We also reduced your PVE Rating before this started to account for that. It's possible that if you pushed yourself so incredibly high before the reduction that you'll *still* be way high with the restricted character set, but that's going to be a very very small portion of the player base.

That is correct. Unwise, you'd better go recruit up some heroes for this event, I want my 2x Captain America Blues!

Sneak peek at the rewards for those of us who can't go look until later?

Well I started an event prior on both my alt account (max lvl 50 1*) and my main account (several 141s) and they didn't have the same levels either to start or after a single clear

So they definitely correspond to your roster in some way

Unknown

Unfortunately, I still only have one or two covers for BP, Psylocke, and HT. Glad I've still got Max'd MStorm and IM35. And I've got a lot of Iso-8 I can use to boost my Wolvie.

I'll probably try to stick to some combination of Wolverine, Storm, Iron Man, and Human Torch (though I only have 1 Green cover for him.)

Your scaling/performance from previous events is in at least some part carried over from event to event
