    Sam Wilson (Falcon) is not Airborne.

    Ack! So the "relevant characters" list here is not a list of all the Airborne characters? Are any of the 3 Sams or Red Hulk Airborne? Is everyone else besides them in that list Airborne?

    Sam Wilson (Brave New World) is Airborne. Red Hulk is not. Sam and Red Hulk are bonus points for the challenge. Everyone else on the list interacts with Airborne in some way.

    Will the rewards be distributed on March 6th, cumulatively, when the event is done?

    I promise I'm not trying to be negative, just genuinely curious:
    How much an incentive is the RISO stretch goal? Will people keep using the Sam/Rhulk/airborne characters or switch back to their faster metas if/when we achieve tier 5?

    For players like you and I probably not. New players who are trying to level up their new shiny Soul Stone maybe.

    I'm just glad we're progressing so much faster than previous challenges.

    After we finish I’ll probably use my points-teams in DDQ and easy nodes. Maybe some Hards, I’ll bring boosted 5sam.

    Not sure I’ll still be putting him or others into PvP.

    Just some riso isn’t that exciting but I can certainly use it.

    I actually have no frame of reference for what it costs in risk to take a support up to 5* so it’s possible have a Scrooge McDuck amount, or a laughably small amount. I add a tier to a support once every month or three at best. I currently have 11,624,954 in the bank.

    Personally I need Riso - 2 of my 12 R5 Supports (Hellfire and Mirror for Loki) and one several of my R4 (most importantly Eros) still need Riso to reach maximum level, so I don't mind if we get the stretch goal. I also have a few lower tier Supports not ranked up yet but not too bothered about those.

    Does anyone know how much it costs to bring a support from 3 to 4 and then 4 to 5? Wondering if I'm post red.

    As a matter of fact, I do...

    175,859 Red-Iso to go from level 150 to 200
    231,905 Red-Iso to go from level 200 to 250

    For the curious, it would be a total of 619,206 Red-Iso to go from level 1 to 250...

    Wow I'm technically not post riso. Will need another 654k 🤔

    Thanks! It'll take 10,978,422 to max all my supports including the two stones I don't own. I have about half of that (5,805,570). I've always been able to max level a support as soon as it ranks up, but wondering if that's because I don't acquire them as fast as others.

    If you ever feel like you have too much iso or riso, take a year or two off and come back. :D

    Covers are super easy to get....even supports now are much easier to add shards to than it is to gain riso.

    However: many supports are not that good and imo, you can leave a bunch under 250 and not miss anything. I have been leveling lesser supports to somewhere between 200 and 240ish so that the better ones are closer to the front (ex: for the AP gain ones, some of them I swap between matches onto different essentials and I definitely don't want, for example, my R5 Destroyer Gun to be in there having to be scrolled past every time).

    Other than the best 16-20 or whatever the number is, there's no reason to level all of them to 250 beyond OCD tendencies. You still get the same shard spillover/wildcards once they are rank 5, and all you need to make them R5 is a level 200 support and enough shards.

    Hear hear!
    I intentionally left all of the bad ones at 149 so they don't mix in with the good ones when I have to equip them. Hopefully they buff the rest of the bad ones sooner rather than later.

    Day 5 of the Take to the Skies Community Challenge, and the counter just ticked from 24.99 million to 25.03 million.

    I guess it must be "Livin' on a Prayer" o'clock somewhere, because we're half way there now.

    Looks like I have a little under half the riso I’m going to need to fully take my supports to 5. I still have four of them at 2* and the pair of unowned stones.
