    Good ideas with these quests but implementation needs to be relooked at. The numbers required is asking too much of a game that most people play in chunks of 15-30 mins throughout the day, sometimes less.

    If it's this tedious now during a boss event weekend imagine in a few days when puzzle gauntlet and SIM goes away.

    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.

    It’s somewhat strange going back to using those two. And throw in Medusa for healing and it just feels like a complete throwback to the days of “must conserve health packs and still do my best to win”.

    Is there a reason they couldn't activate all the tier 1 challenges at once and replace the challenges once you've completed every challenge in a tier?

    The only result of activating the challenges one at a time is massively increasing the time it takes to do the challenges.

    Is this quest bugged? No progress is registered even after completing pvp or PvE nodes.

    Token @ tier 4

    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)
