    For the "25 stuns with a 2-star" quest, the stun doesn't have to come from a 2-star character's ability. Throw a couple of 2-stars with Chasm on an easy node, and that's three stuns right there.

    I did that in PvP Shield (except I backed out). That knocked the 25 matches too.

    I'm not a fan of the champ 10 2* characters quest. All of my 2 stars are ascended. I do not think I can build 10 characters from scratch without saved covers or shards in a 2 week window. Feels less like a training montage and more like a pay to complete montage.

    Yeah, pretty sure I won't do that. But the rewards aren't all that are they?

    I would love an extra 50k iso for completing all the quests.

    Use 5thanos, if you have him, with a 2 on the team, in the Big Enchilada. You’ll get a lot of stuns each time.

    I'm in this same boat - need that Iso but no chance I am building 10 2* from scratch (I might have a part built Ms Marvel to do one and that is it)

    Champing 10 2s will cost you a lot more than that 50k ISO.

    if you clear out the ascension essentials vault a bunch, maybe you can get there. but the new nightcrawler (2/2/3) and a 2/1/2 Bag-Man are currently my only un-champed 2s and I don't think I'll be foregoing adding champ levels in order to start new ones for this. Guess we'll see how it all plays out over time but it doesn't feel doable for me.

    Just think of it this way: Yes, you're losing 50k Iso for not finishing everything, but you're GAINING 750k Iso by not champing 10 2*s. You net out 700k Iso ahead, which I think is way better than 50k Iso.

    All my 2* covers go into Ascended 2's and the motley crew of 2's I do have left (Daken, Bullseye, Bagman) in that tier can do DDQ and that is about all, so really it is mostly dead to me and I don't think SpiderCrawler is going to change anything no matter how much he loves his sister.

    I don't like the feeling that the final 50k iso (which I want desperately) is gated behind this 2* champ quest.

    I'm not a fan myself. To the top percentage of players who are post-iso and have enormous resource levels ascension has been nothing but a win/win but even though I am a veteran 5* player, ascension has absolutely stretched me beyond limits and some of the quests this time are going to be super hard and probably not worth pursuing for me. I don't have resources spare for the 2* tier when I have so many fully covered 5* waiting for iso to be champed. I wont be taking any 2's to 5* land anytime soon so any malarky about that is on deaf ears here.

    It is what it is and sorry I can't help more.

    Even before ascension taking 10 two stars to champ would've taken me a lot longer than this time frame and would be filling 10 slots for nothing as I would've had them at a variety of levels.

    I'm not targeting any of this, if it happens naturally all good if not cba.

    I'm short on iso, but have all 2* covered exept the new one.

    Any idea for the others quests ?

    It's a thing like building 10 3* or so ?

    Also remember that there are 16 quests but only 8 of them are currently showing. I’m assuming the next 8 won’t show until we finish the first 8, since the only one I have remaining is the champ one. I am building the 10 champs (I’ll need them for ascension anyway, and I have the roster slots open), but don’t imagine I’ll finish them in the next couple days obviously… and then might have to rush the next 8? All of this just for iso makes me a little… uninterested?

    I’m not trying for it but based on his stats etc he’s not exactly good enough to make you feel good about burning resources to speed run to 450 and ending up, say, 103rd.

    Again, to get that 50k you need to spend 750k champing 2s.
    Ignore that 50k ISO.
