Yeah... there's no way I'm beating level 261 Venom + goons with my current available roster. Just wiped out 3 times. Levels are still at 261; hope that just means there's a delay in the decrease and not that you actually have to join a bracket before it applies. Thank goodness there's no new character introduced in this event.0

You see, the whole true reason they introduced scaling was so that they no longer had to test or think about balancing. Just let the machine do it all automatically and sit back. It's lazyness pure and simple, and all the talk about offering challenges is just pretenses and excuses.0 -

pandaberry, your levels are at 230, don't you think you've scaled enoughI'LL TELL YOU WHEN IVE SCALED ENOUGH0 -
I think those of you that are seeing the high level baddies are the extreme players.
I am a lot more casual and then I started Hard Mode, I saw 50- lvl opponents in the nodes.
Basically you made it so you have hard battles (odviously you like it that way.)0 -

Define "extreme players".
My regular Venom was at about level 69 at the first node and my hard Venom was at level 187.
I got past the first 5-6 missions on easy then got my **** kicked separately by the Daken node and the Bullseye node.0 -

I tried to check to see of this is correct, but I lost in the first Heroic node, now all my characters are dead, and I have no health packs. So I'ma just gonna have to take yer word fer it.0 -
Dormammu wrote:A couple of questions; I'm not fully familiar with these Heroic events just yet.
1) Are the placement awards for each round, or the event as a whole?
2) I'm assuming there is scaling, is there rubberbanding in the Heroic events?
2.5) If there is no rubberbanding, is it best to get in early on the refreshes? Or do points increase along with the community scaling?
The previous heroic had 2 independent rounds. It would be the same as running the same PvE event back-to-back and calling each run a "round".
As with other recent PvE events, I believe there is scaling and rubberbanding.0 -

This is way too insane for my group of heroes. My frist node is 308 and the subsequent ones will be 400 before long. my bp and psylock aren't over 100 yet, and my human torch is a baby still.0

great, both nodes end at 6am my time, which means I can forget a top ranking (and probably even any cap cover)...
not that I think I could finish on top with a decent end time..my roster's not really up to par0 -

Should I wait to join 'till later?
Yes it in groups of 1000. I am trying to decide if I enter after 36 hours when max rubber banding kicked it or wait even longer and not worry too much about the top progression rewards.
I finished top 10 in Heroic Juggs by joining with 15 hours left, clearing all the high-point nodes I could, and then performing a final sweep 90 minutes before the event ended.
I believe other, braver forumers have joined even later than me during Round 2 and still easily placed top 10.0 -
I don't mind a challenge and I don't mind fighting high level opponents. What I don't understand though is why only the newest character is buffed. A limited roster of mainly subpar characters already makes it more challenging. Why can't they get a little buff too?0
-
The developers must be laughing their **** off when they include Bagman onto these heroic rosters. Like, serious heavy belly laughs.0

just started (just got home from work) and wowzas so glad i got torchy (my nickname for johnny storm xD) sadly i only have flame jet so hopefully its useful when he's level 105 boosted xD ha ha i probably play this today first before ranking myself back up for the hotshot event im back at 288 there lol
wish the other characters got buffed though especially for a new player like me0 -

Well, to be fair, Heroics are supposed to be the hardest form of PvE there is. Unlike the Sim where you have a ton of buffed heroes. I think I'm doing just what the game wants me to do, play a couple of games, suffer my best fighters' loss, wait for them to regen (since prologue healing is a carnal sin). There is no way I am going to spend healthpacks before the final day thanks to the crazy rubberbanding.0

Yeah that second node with Venom, Lieutenant and Grenadier is fun...
Stunlock, Heal, Stunlock, Heal, Stunlock, Heal, Rocket, Dead.0 -
