    when does the new PVP season start
     I'm not sure of the exact time, but it will be later today. It always starts on a Thursday, usually towards the later afternoon/early evening EDT.

    @Brigby

    I'm hoping it's a mistake that Coulson is offered as progression rewards for both Galactus and The Hunt? Seems redundant and of course for selfish reasons only 1/4 of those covers available can I use. The rest will be iso bait as I need two blues to finish him off. :smile:

    No, that's normal for boss events. Boss event round target rewards are basically the "placement rewards". So he's really the placement reward for Galactus, and progression for The Hunt.

    @Killians8 it's not an error. The 4* in alliance rewards is always the progression cover in the PVE event following the boss event.

    System Reboot will be running 8 hours after Galactus Hungers started, so that should be around 5pm PDT/8pm EDT

    To my knowledge, it is in intentional for both Galactus and The Hunt to offer Agent Coulson covers.

    Thanks Brigby.  Didn't see that info anywhere else yet, unless I happened to miss it.

    You didn't miss it. I found that information when I got into the office today, so I'm going to be updating the thread right now with those details

    I'll try and remember that. Now I'll just have to hope to pull my final blue Coulson in the next 14 days...or I better start saving 120 CP for it. I guess I've got some undesirable options at least.

    @Brigby, your earlier reply stated 8 p.m. EDT, but the update on the front page says PDT. Just thought I'd point out the discrepancy so you can correct whichever one needs to be corrected.

    Ah! Nice catch. Apologies for the confusion. I have now corrected it to say EDT

    I'm sure I'll beat it an hour after it starts then.

     And if you do? Are you complaining about extra ISO and two 4* covers? I'll take them if you don't want them.

    Because thinking that a special event will be similar to other events that were short equates to not wanting the rewards for said event.

    I just find it funny that it's a new event, we're getting more ISO and 4* covers, and people are STILL complaining.

    I gladly welcome additional pve content and honestly hope that a pve season is coming soon so you could have your regular story events for placement rewards to earn new characters and have bonus content on the side that is strictly progression based like a gauntlet where the only element of time is beating the event in a set amount of days.

    Look at that post. So much complaining. Maybe it'll be super easy and I'll beat it pretty quickly. Maybe it'll have a pretty decent challenge to it. We shall see but either way I'm looking forward to it.
