The Hulk is a painful slog.

    I think it’s refreshing to fight different characters, such as the hulk.

    Prodigal Sun offers a wider variety of opponents. Hope they bring that back soon as well

    As soon as I saw it pop up, it felt like I was getting a vacation from this game.

    Now I’m bored and wondering which day I can start and still get that 4* prog reward?

    In SCL9, I did 7 optimal (well, almost optimal) clears and had the Emma covers after 2 subs and 1 initial grind.  3 subs would do it for sure.

    Something I've done a few times is join a bracket on the last day after a late flip.  If you start early enough (in SCL 9) and can let the subs recharge a few hours it's possible to get the 4* reward and the 10 CP with just the last day's points.  Mind you that's during a normal 4 day eventt-- maybe for a 7 you need the last 2 days.

    I’m going to give that carol plus Thor a go I think , I have been using teen jean so that as soon as hulks anger triggers a match 5 he gets stunned 

    the carol thing sounds more fun

    Invisible Woman and 3* Cage are boosted so I’ve been running them.  Cage caps a significant amount of damage and Hulks anger creating green against IW typically doesn’t end well for the big guy.

    And Hulk with his cascades....
    I'm trying to make that entertaining by bringing along Carol and 5Thor.  Thor tanks green so every time Hulk matches green Carol's energy manipulation goes off, triggering anger and so on. 
    I'm using Bolt instead of 5Thor. My 3rd (when I get to choose like today final node) is Rogue. Once you get 5 green and fire Gloves Off poor Hulk can't even generate any Green AP from his Anger since Green is his stronger color. I did all my clears of that final Hulk node taking next to no damage since Rogue also jumps to the front on green matches :)

    The last time this event ran, Okoye did not exist.  Running Okoye with Thor50 and either Strange or Chavez (depending on number of goons in the fight).  Easy peasy.  I'm actually clearing faster than I want to on final grind.

    Yeah people def hate this event. I missed the 2nd and 3rd subs completely and am still holding on to T50. My slice didn't even flip until yesterday.

    We've all forgotten about ISO-8 Brotherhood, is what I'm taking away from this thread.

    I'm at over 1400 days now, so I think I can state with some authority that Juggernaut/Daken nodes are why people quit this game.

    It's the one where Magneto agrees to help Nick Fury because he doesn't want mutants being used by non-mutants, or something to that effect.  Another 7-day event with a lot of Dark Avengers everywhere.  The main difference from Hulk is that while the Hulk has the one-time node for a free 3* Hulk cover, each ISO-8 Brotherhood sub had a one-time node for extra iso.  I think the only reason people dislike Hulk more is that Hulk is run more often....and might be slightly heavier on Juggernaut, although I honestly don't remember.

    Oh, I thought that story was to generic mutant nodes what Enemy of the State was to generic ninjas nodes. I didn't remember that it was another one full of Dark Avengers. Waugh.

    Those Dark Avengers, eh, whatta bunch of good times. And now we have Juggernaut too. But wait... Ooh look - Emma's node is all Dark Avengers but it's Daken, Ragnarok and Venom - sure is nice to have a break from Ares and his non stop axe to the face. *Gets hit in the face by an axe* - You gave them an Ares team-up, Devs? Of course you did...

    At least it wasn't an axe to everyone's face...

    My Ares favorite sequence so far happened earlier today:
    Onslaught - Yeah, I've seen this a lot.
    Sunder - Huh, I didn't realize he'd hit 10 yellow.
    Wilson's Gambit Team Up, getting rid of the Sunder count down tile - OH, COME ON!!!

    Of all the 7 day events to bring back why did it have to be this one?  And if they were going to bring it back after so long couldn't they have at least tweaked it a little bit to make it less of a chore?  Ugh.
    Humm... I like the event

    Yeah, OK, up to day 5 now and this is starting to get annoying. Literally the same combination of teams every single day. Theres no way the devs ever play these events cause how could they possibly find this enjoyable clearing these nodes at least 6 times a day to then go and fight the exact same teams again the following day. I'm bored now. 

    Retire this event and The Hunt.
