    I'm working on Tier 3 and Yondu's Ravager's Ruse seems to be bugged.

    Destroy up to 7 AP in the enemy's highest AP pool, then create a strike tile of strength 70 for each AP destroyed.

    I'm not sure what requirement it's looking for, but I wasn't able to fire it despite having 29 black AP. No error message, it just wouldn't fire. The AI had AP in every color. Maybe it wanted 7? I don't know.

    That's not what the power says, though.

    spaghetti code ?🤷
    And I found that it doesn't work for some color in AI 7AP(I forgot maybe purple).

    The point is that it's bugged. So, on top of it being grindy for not great rewards, the power in question won't even fire reliably.

    Figured out the 6million damage quest not registering.

    In order for the damage to count, you have to fight against a team that has a GotG affiliated character as part of the team.

    Edit: the only dmg registered towards the quest is the dmg you deal to gotg characters only

    Happy grinding

    If other players enjoy it, I am happy for them. It is a definite skip for me, though. Great idea, poor execution.

    Has anyone made it beyond tier 4? I don’t have the right covers for 2 of the 5* steps in tier 4 and am curious if later rewards would make it worth trying to get them.

    I admire the patience of y'all who got to tier 4. 🫡

    There's like a million ISO in these rewards, which is kinda crazy.

    Tier 4 is the last tier.

    Oh thank god.
    Thank you for that confirmation.

    Thanks @JRYUART - that means I can slow down my grind and not sweat this.

    Just so we have a list… Tier 4 currently has 17 quests (and maybe an extra one at the end like prior tiers):

    -Fire 5AWarlock’s purple 50 times
    -Complete 40 missions
    -Fire 5Gamora’s black 50 times
    -Fire 5StarLord’s green 50 times
    -Make 100 red matches (similar to prior tiers, these color ones happen 1 at a time)
    -Make 100 blue matches
    -Make 100 green matches
    -Make 100 yellow matches
    -Make 100 black matches
    -Make 100 purple matches
    -Make 100 TU matches
    -Make 400 matches
    -Use 10 Boosts
    -Play 35 PvPs
    -Use 25 TUs (this isn’t an extra. Actually part of the 17, but it does stack with the quests from tiers 2 and 3, so wait to do those until you have all 3 tiers showing and then only waste 25 TUs, instead of doing them each separately).
    -Give 10 TeamUps to alliance
    -Deal 6M damage (used to be “to GOTG character” but I believe there was a fix that any character now works).

    (Edited to add 12-17)

    Play 35 pvp games.
    Give 10 team ups.
    Use 10 boosts.

    As others have said - good idea, badly executed.

    Pros - nice variety of quests encouraging varied use of a number of characters. The rewards are as high as we've seen from quests so definitely a decent carrot.

    Cons - Timing sucks - would make more sense to have active when GOTG are boosted and featured in events also. Starting while a Boss event is on and there's a day break in PVE is just ****. It's just super grindy and encouraging a weird play style. They should either have reduced the overall count required or made all quests in a tier active at one time so you're not limited to this painful match 1 color thing at 1 time.

    I'm just gonna take everything I can get and consider it a bonus. Not going to sweat about it.

    I was wondering why I was seeing so many random unboosted 5* Star lord and adam warlock in beast pvp. Guess people are grinding out these tasks.

    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.

    Its > @KGB said:

    I suspect that 4* players will complete these WAY easier than 5* players simply because Grocket/Polaris is used so much in PvE etc. I'm already a long way through the tier 1 'make 100 matches in X color' quests for example.

    KGB

    That literally makes no sense,do you think 5 star players just discard their 4 stars?
