    I really hope a bunch of people grind over the next few days or we will miss the final tier by like half a day of what we have been earning, point wise.

    I think it’s safe to assume most of the points have come from players who aren’t focused on it playing pve cover swapped boded and the zombie event and against cover swapped teams in pvp.

    And the last week of the challenge, they gave us DPvMPQ with 2 48s (less grinding than any other event) and next HAThieves which has all of 3 nodes with cover swapped toons- 2 being challenge nodes that only SCL 10 players even see.

    Thanks for “helping” us get this over the line.

    Once again the challenge success is 90% the design of it and what we are given to engage with and 10% the most highly engaged players trying hard.

    I'll do some more grinding. I want that Space Stone!

    Not sure if anyone mentioned this or not. The Hunter (neither 3 nor 5) does not have the Midnight Sons (how it's spelled in-game) Affiliation assigned to them. I had planned to use her, but instead am using Morbius as I fear using her would not count towards the goal given that she does not have the Affiliation.

    LMAO

    I assumed the 3 did so I've been using her in DDQ. Unfortunately I ascended Blade so he isn't useable.

    Well, at least I can stop using her and just use Omega again alongside Devpool and Headpool.

    What’s the most point-giving player team that doesn’t involve the zombie costume?

    Headpool, a midnight suns (5Agatha is the best one) and an MPQ Original (use 5Omega if you can).

    And grind one of those low-level all-zombie wave nodes over and over?

    I've been using the fourth one. One wave, tons of zombies, all weak enough to get chopped to bits by OR right away.

    So on the first page of this thread, they say that Hunter counts for this challenge as well as Magik (in her Midnight Suns costume only).

    So it seems like they didn’t add the affiliation but that it does indeed count assuming everything is working right.

    If Tier 5 goal had "only" been in difference of 30 mio. from Tier 4 like all the prior Tier-differences, then we would have made it, but leaping from 130mio to 200mio is inhumane....even inzombie-like ;-)

    My max point grind team Omeg5-Agath5-HeadPool is becoming zombies themselves now! :D:D

    Here is an idea to close of this season with Dev-stylaz....

    Update the Tier 5 goal to 180mio.... and watch the community roar with utmost pleasure in the grand finale!!!!

    We don't seem to have got anywhere since I checked yesterday. To be fair this whole thing was confusing and quite hard so even if Tier 4 is where it ends I think we have done quite well.

    Right, but is the game registering it as well...this site could say anything, but if the counter uses the Affiliation to credit the usage, it could be a problem. Your point about Magick's costume would counter that though, yes, unless that would add the Affiliation, which I'd assume not.

    Honestly, I hope they give like 2 days extra, the first 2 days had like no zombies and people were mega confused, also the last pve events were a mess, Fight for Wakanda had very few swapped chars, DPvsMPQ was only two subs although many swaps and HaT has like one counting char, which is Nova in 3 nodes in the last sub
    And you can‘t expect people to hit the Zombie pve nodes like 100 times each, some of us have a job…

    These community events won’t work until your progress is shown in-game.

    I disagree. There are alot players that are not willing to spend more time in game irregardless of what the rewards are. They can go ahead and add a tracker but it not going to make a difference. This community challenge, they made a month long boost for characters that trigger points. They incentivised players with rewards for high contribution and we still did not reach the target. we also need to get rid of the, " we have not gotten t5 in last x times, so why bother trying" players it is not going to happen either.

    Also we have completed two community challenges when there was no progress tracker in game.

    My solution is just offer the stones in a store and be done with it.

    We could call it 'TVA garage sale'.

    They could rerun the infinity wars support store that introduced the stones.
    I asked that in the Q&A but they politely ignored me
