    I'll probably just aim for 600 points to update my poor cap who only has 2 covers right now and be done with it

    Problem is my thor already has his green maxed. I dont have loki yet so maybe i'll rank up there to win him since he's awesome now (Tom Hiddleston fan xD love the avengers movie) right now, i only have 25 points cause i am like ranking nicely in round one in Simulator.

    Dont have punisher so that's why xD

    Don't waste a roster spot on Loki unless you have extra roster space or are willing to purchase some. He's near useless in this game.

    O_o yikes... they need to release another Loki then, maybe him using magic to do damage O-o if i have to lose points after gaining 600 i'll do that, or just sell Loki for iso afterwards.

    He saved me against a high level Daken during the Hunt, but yeah, he's not worth it generally unless you have HP to spend.

    Also Illusion is easy to spam for extra turns at times.

    I just now ran into a similar "wall" in this like in falcon, only after about 550, now I mainly get teams with 141s in them in all nodes, instead of it happening closer to 800

    Made it to around 500 with relative ease, would like to try and push to 1100 for the progressive, but after getting my rear hand ed to me in the falcon tournament in the last match I played (made it to 693, then during the duration of one match that would have put me over 700 I was hit for a net loss of 214 points) I think I may hope for the best from the token at 300 instead.

    Bulls-eye, so grind it is.

    Could just be that it's day one, and it's reward covers many don't care about.

    Most pvps I find that if I want 8-900 I can maybe hit 600 day one, get knocked down to 400. Then day 2 work back up to my goal once there are retaliations to fight, and more players and points in the pool.

    A similar thing happened to me during the Hulk PvP awhile back, except it gave me the bonus, then stole all my points. I shielded immediately, and was still hit about 40 more times after.

    yeah, that's what I figured it could be. Managed to push through to 700 though, stopped for now. Was just getting what I could now, and managed to hit my 5k prog in season 1 in the process.

    got a purple spidey and black doom that I needed. The rest, well, 3 bullseye, 2 bag man, 2 red mthor, cstorm, all of which are sells for me. At least I got a couple needed though.
  • There seems to be a ton of max level Punisher out there so it's considerably harder to get anywhere compared to The Falcon where most people just use the loaned one. And at least there doesn't seem to be another Kyipgate event at this point.

    Its early, hopefully D3 fixed the issue, which may be why the event was delayed.

    But really, who wants Loki covers?

    Psylocke please. Or just a red from a token i'll be fine, thrown out 5 blacks already... some tokens some alliance rewards...

    I'd just settle for a red thor right now personally... or heck, even patch/hulk/spidey covers as I still need lots of those. If nothing else, at least AoO is good for Season 1 points... even if not for Loki. I would at least hope that Loki is better than BagMan though, lol
  • I'm building a Bagman because of that last heroic.... 2/0/5 now.

    Any tourney is good for season 1 points, just boo Loki covers in general. I really like how my roster is coming along but as a severe downside I have only been excited by 1 tourney rewards in the last 2 weeks and that was LT. 2/4/4 now, one more tourney will finish him. Shaped up nicely, really worked out that red thor was top 10 in those Jugg events, I missed the red both times.

    yeah... very true. Punisher's obviously been around longer. I mean, mine is now at 4/4/4 but not completely leveled yet. Considering doing that though, or at least a good deal more. He's only at 83 right now (as I hardly ever used him before getting more covers) - but I can now level him up to 128.

    Yeah... mine is 0/4/4 right now... had missed the Red lThor cover due to not being able to play as much thanks to work projects, etc.

    And though I'm not a fan of BagMan, it may not actually be a bad idea to have one on the rare occasion you might need him. But I still think they buffed him in that event purely to try to convince people to dump money/iso into him, as most seem to instantly hit sell for any cover they get.
  • Well they didn't buff him, they allowed him. And he was the only tile control other than the shotgun storm approach. I could have sworn he was in one of the other heroics as well but got outshone by other control characters. You know he may be the go to guy in another heroic down the road. D3 has to allow many low tier characters in heroics so to not lock out the newbies who have such an easy time crushing us.

    I have a good HP balance from events so its not like it cost any money, I am purely ftp.

    You're right... for some reason I was thinking he was buffed, but it was just being allowed. And yeah - I'm thinking he'll be included in some other heoric/pve at some point, or maybe in 4.5, who knows.

    Kyipgate: Now the official name for this phenomenon.

    Yeah, thank god.
    However, the cutoff for 'serious' teams seems to be about 550 now, which is a bit annoying.
    Hope that's because most people haven't started yet, not because the expected points range for top 5 has been lowered to 800 again :s
