    And for those that didn't get lucky enough for the required person for essentials we are pretty much just screwed period.

    That's pretty much been the case for every PvE since IW was required.
  • I did some searching and cant find the answers I'm looking for.

    1. Do nodes refresh at 12 hours since you first played them?

    2. If you play a node and fail, does that still start the possible 12 hour refresh? Do you have to successfully beat it for the refresh timer to start?

    3. Any other info regarding this would be helpful.

    Thank you!

    1. Last played, not first played
    2. It doesn't matter if you beat it or not (though points only go down if you beat it).
  • Ok, about the last played / first played. What I mean is I played all the nodes last night before 7. By 8 am this morning they were refreshed even though I played them each multiple times up till midnight. So if I played them again this morning before 9, they should refresh by nine regardless if I play them again on my lunch break, right?

    No if you were playing them til midnight, they won't fully refresh until noon if refresh is 12 hours.
  • Interesting. Refresh must be at 8 hours on this one then. Like I said, I played up till about midnight (actually 11:30) and they were refreshed by 8 today.

    Rubberbanded my way back up to 5th overall and 4th in the sub - from 250th icon_e_biggrin.gif

    You sure the stacks didn't partially refresh or rubberband up?
  • I'm not sure what rubberbanding is.
  • well i fear my scaling might be super high so im probably going to be forced to use my PvP teams to team up with my Boosted Ares and Moonstone.


    We shall see...
  • Playing now, I am despising the Maggia more and more. Their powers are too strong, their costs are too low, and the countdown tiles are up too quickly. It's just annoying to try to play against them since you have to have a constant source of blues (at least for OBW) to be able to stall them for long enough.

    I saw you HairyDave. Man people are grinding this pve hard. My pun lvl has increased 25 lvls so far. I so regret joining this bracket. Should have held off til later icon_e_sad.gif
  • Pretty much just had to quit this run through of the nodes because I'm out of Health Packs and I got stuck in another **** game. I really hope the next subevents don't have Maggia in them, because I've gotten really sick of them really fast.
  • LazyCap/Hood are gods in PvE. I just bring a green meatshield (Hulk/Thor/etc) to absorb any blows and keep Captain's juggling act going knocking goons out.

    His blue is awesome, you can overwrite the tile of the non-stunned goon and stun the other one. Effectively eliminating the threat from two enemies.

    Usually the match is over before I collect enough yellow to pop off Hood's Twin Pistols, but it's saved me from damage a few times when I've had bad boards or unlucky cascades that ruined my countdown timers.
  • Toxic, how do you know which countdown is for which goon? If they are the same type of goon that is.
  • It's a guessing game at first, but when you stun the first one, you can kind of figure out whose is whose. Any new ones created after that are easier to determine.
  • If I had strong 3* characters, I would definitely be using them in this event. Unfortunately, the highest I have is a 75 1/2/5 Patch, then it's a pretty big drop to anything else. Pretty much only have 2*s to work with. I just really hate the Maggia. And since I can't play the event right now, I guess I just have to wait until it's close to this round ending to see if I can get some more points. I've gotten, at most, 2 prizes from each of the nodes. But I still am mostly just getting 20 Iso-8 rewards, so that makes it hard to feel too motivated to play.

    Apparently I've just reached a frustrating point in the first sub-event. Hopefully the next one will be better.

    Yeah I was grinding this a bit, but then I noticed that I had barely any ISO. Then my enemies scaled a making me use healthpacks, and for what? 20 ISO rewards and no chance really for being at the top of the bracket or get the progression Daken reward. Back to pvp

    I'll still play once in awhile but I have no desire to grind it. Is that the point?

    Yeah mine's up about 32 levels higher than my first run through (although that's still pretty low thanks to my scaling). Not looking forward to my final playthrough tomorrow

    Hey y'all, do the nodes refresh every 8 hours or 12 hours? I couldn't find any mention of this in the last 8 pages of this thread.
