    Are the buffed characters for Age of Apocalypse the same at the weekly buffed characters? Or are the featured characters or category characters buffed?

    I'm curious as to when we're getting the "More Details To Come!" for the boss event that starts in ~17 hours.

    It's generally a separate list of buffed characters.  There may be some overlap, but that would be by chance.

    If they're lazy, it might even be the same boost list as the last time they ran the event:

    The buff list for the Xmen V Apocalypse event is basically this:

    Featured Characters
    4-Star: Wasp
    3-Star: Doctor Octopus (Otto Octavius)
    2-Star: Magneto (Marvel NOW!)

    Character Categories: Beast, Wolverine, Deadpool, Jean Grey, Cyclops, Storm, Scarlet Witch

    The weekly buff list is different but there is some overlap.

    Funnily enough, no 5* Widow in the boost list.
    So much for predictability.

    Not sure what you mean. Bosses skip the normal pattern (have for six months now), she'll be boosted/essential next event.

    @Brigby @IceIX @LakeStone not that it matters since the event is already up, but boss event details were never updated.

    Chavez PvP? Neat, but it looks like Valkyrie is up after that so we will have a full week of fourstar PvPs to round out the season. Not that I mind in any way.

    Because the 4*s are still following their alphabetical rotation when they're rewards only. Valkyrie is out of order.

    Valk also falls under the Pride month theme, as she is apparently lesbian.

    Valkyrie is bi, I think, America Chavez is a lesbian. They both fit Pride month.

    Ah ok, thanks. 

    But I was mostly wondering why there would not be a 3* in between.

    We're in uncharted Waters now... nothing says they won't run consecutive fourstar PvPs. Besides, if it is a Pride theme there aren't that many threestars left they could use - Mystique maybe, but I can't see many others.
