    Let me fix it for you:

    That's a lot of required classic 5*s... I guess we'll see how bad that is. Will there be any loaners perhaps?

    Nope. This technically is a new event where you play as members of the Sinister Six against Spidey.

    Whoa. New boss event. This is getting heavy.

    I really appreciate the early info. Thanks!

    Looks like ascended 5* will be the difference maker for many, classic 5* are pretty lackluster here.

    There is a rebalance that day as well. Green Gonlin? 🤞

    Well Vulture and Electro are not bad. Electro can hit like a truck and Vulture can generate you a ton of AP.
    I don't know who would be better to run with, but I'm guessing Green Goblin.

    Agreed. Both are better than they look like at first glance. Out of the other two, though, Ock is okay (even after his several buffs he's still just meh,) and Goblin is one of the first 5*s so his numbers are honest-to-goodness terrible by modern standards. Also, CD-based characters are generally horrifically slow.

    Here's some extra info about the bosses!

    As the name implies, tomorrow's Sinister Six vs Spider-Man boss event is similar to the Spider-Man vs Sinister Six, but this time you'll be fighting against the below Spider-Man characters as bosses. Like all bosses, they also cannot be sent away or stunned.

    3* Spider-Man (Classic)
    4* Spider-Man 2099 (Miguel O'Hara)
    4* Spider-Man: India (Spider-Verse)
    4* Miles Morales (Spider-Man)

    Any chance we'll see Bag Man lurking around?

    I always see you mention May and that she can easily handle PVE nodes. What am I missing? Are you talking 3 or 5? I started using 3* plus Omega in PVE which works pretty well, but she's not a one hit wonder by herself.

    5 star may - symbiote goo support
    P5 Emma - Krakoa
    Mr. Sinister - proxima midnight
    Red ap boosts

    Krakoa gives ap in the teams strongest color (red as long as your sinister isn't too high level) for each affiliation that mutants have but don't share. Emma and sinister are both mutants and don't share affiliations besides mutant. Proxima midnight has a chance to start with extra red ap. Symbiote goo adds an extra 30% damage in whichever ability you fire that has the most ap in that color. Mays red aoe does extra damage the more red you have when you fire it and emma boosts damage for having red ap built up.

    Thanks never though giving may a good support. Wonder how much higher it will kill will try those 3. (usually just been using may Emma never thought about a 3rd )

    Wee faster kills

    Thanks

    Thanks - have saved to try. Just champed 5* May with the boss rewards. I find supports such a web of confusion to find decent synergies, too much going on, so appreciate the insight from those who have spent the time.

    Didn't mind 3* May with Omega Red + 1 other usually with the Power Stone. Last event with Phyla was clearing most nodes in a couple of turns.

    Didn't realize that Slide was in SL8, always figure all forum folks are SL10.
