    So strange sights is a 4 day event this time. I'm guessing that's not a mistake. Will be there a new 4th section?

    Starts tomorrow, ends Wednesday.
    Looks like normal 3 days to me.

    Umm... Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday. How many days is that?

    Even the schedule on page 1 shows 4 days.

    S2 starts Sunday at 6, first sub ends Monday, second sub ends Tuesday,third sub ends Wednesday.
    That's 3 days.
    Schedule always goes from start of S1 to end of S5.

    By your logic Infinite Pursuit would be a 4 day event, too.

    Isn't it usually? So we will have no event Wednesday?

    I hope there's no gap in pve, since they spent 3 weeks now to get things back on track.
    But that graphic would suggest a break, sooooo.
    Who knows.
    Same for Hearts of darkness into Webbed wonder.

    Wong is the placement in IP and progression in Strange Sights. Hit Monkey is the 5E.

    Strange Sights is a 3 day event like it always is.

    This should be confusing no one.

    A 3 day PvE starting on a Sunday is definitely out of the ordinary.

    Can we get an update please, @IceIX ?
    Possibly with an explanation why there are days without PVE coming up again - I thought the break you took was to take care of all that and that it would be regular schedule from here on out.

    There looks like a one day break because they ran two 3 day events in a row.

    Yes but what's the reason for that?
    I get they wanted to run SS for Wong, but there should have been a way to just run a 4 day before that.

    While we're talking about breaks in play, can we also get confirmation that there will be another break later in the month between Hearts of Darkness and Webbed Wonder and then again between the end of Webbed Wonder and the boss event?

    Webbed Wonder appears on the calendar as a 2-day event. That can't be right, as this event comes only in a 3- or 4-day version. If it's the 3-day run, Webbed Wonder should end on Thursday when the Boss event starts.

    Similarly, if Hearts of Darkness is the 4-day version, this would avoid another break in the schedule.

    4-Star Clue: Flying Samurai

    the first-ever DC Puzzle Quest crossover, confirmed!!! ^_^

    So... "Flying Samurai"

    That happens to be a reference to an electric guitar which is often called and axe.

    My guess is the next character will be someone from the AXE: Judgment Day series.

    My bet is Starbrand as she's unique in that series and the Eternals generally qualify as 5-star characters while the next character is a 4-star.

    I don't want it to be Starfox (Eros) as he seems rather disgusting.

    Obviously not Madisynn since she would be a 5*

    4* clue, is it Sunfire?

    Not many Japanese characters that can fly.

    Unless it is a character that TriSentinel suggested. AxE story is so big and that clue is so abstract that it can be anyone in AxE and there are so many.

    Your clue writers really need to write better clues if it is someone from AxE.

    I saw 4* Juggs as the placement reward in Namora's PvP. I got scared there would be. Juggs PvP but it's 3* Thor. I don't want to experience that lol

    Juggs picks up after Jubilee in the 4* alphabetical order for PVP placement rewards. The normal rewards were interrupted while they get through their slate of character creations. Namora is the last of them, and Colleen Wing's PVP should reward Karnak when the alphabetical ordering resumes
