    Oh, no Boss event for a change.

    Well, Webbed Wonder certainly fits as far as the story's concerned.

    What scaling will this event have?

    Great. Another pve/pvp end time 1 hr apart.  Can we please try and move away from this?  We were on a great roll and now back into the same viscous cycle.

    But are Case Closed and Doc Ock showdown 1-time only missions (or at least the showdown)?

    I think I like the Privileged Intellect LT offered at max progression (and for the Showdown node). But, I know quite a few people who would much rather have the 25 CP (assuming this is a 1-time change thing here). 
    25 CP is 20% of a specific 4* cover you need to purchase with 120CP. Be ready for a few 'comments' about this.

    Same old scaling

    They are getting a bit thick, aren't they?
    But you can choose your ending times for both PVE and PVP, since always. Sure if you go with the defaults they'll start close to each other but why not just space them out when picking your start/end times? Or am I missing something here?

    I'm good with it. At least they are trying to give away new shiny thing

    I see what you did there

    Alliance rewards. If you want to be in two different alliances for the events (i.e. a top PvE alliance for one and a top PvP alliance for the other) you have to switch in that hour, which is an hour where most of the Eastern US would be asleep and much of mainland Europe would be just starting their day.
    Thanks, I've seen the complaint before and was always confused about why it was such a big issue

    Don't tell anyone but if you pick SCL 8 you get 8 CP and a themed LT from progression and if you pick SCL 7 you get 8 CP and a themed LT from progression but you also have to fight not quite as tough enemies.

    We'll, I just saw that I get a token that forces me into either Doc Ock or a latest 12. Thanks, but I'd rather have the CP.
    It's the exact same type of token they've used during release for every 5* since at least, I don't know, the first run of Civil War a year ago?

    you can believe that if you want. I will just sit in SCL8 and face the same enemies you do with slightly better rewards.

    the SCL determines your enemy level wasn't a perm change, just a test. The next event is back to normal.

    Well at least you're not running a boss event INSTEAD of regular PVE for a change.

    I'd still prefer the 25 CP instead of this token.

    Also, bring back CL based scaling.
    Immediately.

    Oh, even better - I place top 20 in SCL 7 for the same effort that gets me top 200 in SCL 8.
