@Timmay83 said: This is all great, but what are "Tier 1 quests"
They're just the other Event quests as they're all under the Tier 1 banner (maybe there's a Tier 2 later on).
4 tiers at least. Get cracking.
Lucky the pvp is play only not win
Having seen the tier 2 and 3 lists I already decided to not bother. It's borderline return of tapping to get that done and not remotely fun or interesting.
Might not have felt so grindy if they had opened up all the 100 match ones together at the start or had them retrospective from the start. Grinding 100 red, then blue then Yellow and so on really doesn't inspire me to play the game that way.

Agreed, I hate how I have to unlock each quest instead of having them all available.
This would had been better if didn't release this on the tail end of Starlord's PvP. There was no reason he couldn't be switched with Hood's PvP. Then they didn't use the Boss Event that boosts the GotG characters. The intention was there but not fully thought out.
I'll just keep replaying the puzzle challenges to complete the quests. At least those are color related
It seems like an awful lot of work for not very much reward, which is great! If the rewards were really good I'd feel compelled to do all of it. As is, it seems quite easy to ignore.
They should do more stuff like this, honestly -- small, completely ignorable bonuses for playing a ton.
But you said they don't want players killing themselves playing. Which is pretty much what this is. What is it now? Kill players or don't kill players?
Also, there's hundreds of thousands of ISO in there. Insignificant for us, yes. General playerbase? Not quite so small bonuses.
Where do you see hundreds of thousands of iso? I see, like, 250, and an elite token.
Tapping was bad because it was the only way to win PvE, and those rewards actually mattered.
Tier 2 starts with 4 quests but appears to have 6 in total (maybe… cause Tier 1 has an extra quest after you do the first 10, which is to match 100 TeamUps).
Tier 2: -Stun enemies 30 times (using Chasm is good and then just immediately retreat after starting). -Destroy (not match) 50 TU tiles (so someone like Storm or Onslaught) -Complete 30 missions (withdrawing doesn’t count obviously) -Destroy 100 tiles
Not sure what the next 2 will be. It looks like you might have to finish the first 4 before they show up.
Edit, my alliance mate says: -Quest 5 is 300 matches -Quest 6 is use 10 boosts. -The extra quest is Play 25 PvP matches (so a retreat counts).
Then Tier 3 looks to have 10 quests (but will probably have another extra): -Destroy 50 enemy SAP tiles -Use Gamora’s Deadly Strike 25 times -Use Rocket’s Don't Push the Button 25 times -Use a GOTG 25 times -Use Mantis’ Oversharing 25 times -Use Starlord’s Slight of Hand 25 times -Use Yondu’s Ravage’s Ruse 25 times

Tier 4 has actual good rewards.
Tier 4

So collect another 150 Green matches to get the star Lord one done? Similar with the gamora and Adam ones. Could any of this be done without endless retreating and rinse repeating puzzle gauntlet nodes playing normally using guardian characters in 14 days?
And you get 1 token per tier to that special vault?
Yes,it's

100k iso is not bad ZZzzz
I am with EB and Tony. I am ignoring this, way way too grindy.
Too much grind and the items are gated. Look at tier one as proof. Why do I have to make 100 red matches first before the next match option appears? Why do I have to make 100 blue before yellow, teamups, etc. appear? Why are they not all available? Apologies if the order is wrong, but this is tedious grinding.
Higher tiers require activating specific Gamora, Star Lord, Rocket powers but simulator ends today. There is no pve event again. Do you expect us to use Puzzle Gauntlet non-stop?
This runs for fourteen days instead of a month so yo my have to push early or you have no chance.
I am on tier one yellow and determined this is no longer worth the time.

Very grindy - and also wondering what their thought process was on how you would be expected to do this without Puzzle Gauntlet available to grind.
I'm all for encouraging variety in gameplay so the concept of these quests is good. However, firing any power 25 or more times is a huge ask and the game doesn't have a good mode that encourages the style of play these quests want.
DPD - has 4 nodes you can use GOTG in - but they are one and done daily PVP - with no boosted GOTG you're just setting up for a loss either in the fight or retal trying to use them, so hard to sacrifice one thing for another PVE Boss - currently available but is all 1 and done nodes so limited opportunity to grind PVE Regular - you can try and do these during your regular play but it goes against regularly encouraged speed play and if you want to grind a node for these then you sacrifice placement
So leaves Puzzle Quest with 4d of grinding! Good Luck!
They would need to leave this up for 3 months not 14 days when the boss event has taken up a few days and they haven't even bothered running Guardians PVP. This would have been perfect for 14 days of Guardians PVP.
I look at the screen shot of 17 quests in tier 4 and just took a break instead of mindless grind. Again that might have been fun to work on all those quests at once, like working on 100 green matches while gathering the green for SL quest while playing his PVP. But gating like this is just a mindless grind. Good idea, poor execution. Again.
Yeah those quests should be worked into the regular milestone ones. I'll probably finish them, because I'm crazy, but there's no way this can be considered doable by the masses.
