    What your enemie's lvl? icon_e_smile.gif

    They started out at 11, but now they're 50-100 after one fight. I'm guessing someone hit the 'easy mode' switch on accident at the start.

    I need these IM40 covers, by which I mean, I'm not covered up on IM40 and have room for them. Question is, did I actually want them? I'll take them if I can get them but what I'll really push for is the Mohawk progression reward, if it seems achievable. After that, I'll take it or leave it and use the opportunity to farm ISO.

    Lovely, I just got may last IM40 last night from 300 point reward from Cage Match and now they give me a PvE where I want nothing. icon_e_smile.gif I guess I should be glad that I can grind to that last reward for storm black, maybe. Anyways, Thor PvP is gonna give me that last Blue Hood cover I need! Hurray!

    Required nodes in both subs are 1x Psylocke, 1x Mororo, btw, for anyone who hasn't opened the subs yet. So you're not completely screwed if you missed Mororo from the previous PvE.

    From the required nodes, a 1 black 68 Psylocke is pretty underwhelming, so I maxed MNMags, and will use him, A. Wolv, and CStorm for the other nodes, subbing in Psy for Storm on the essentials.

    My IM40 is 1/2/0, so it'd be nice to make top 20, but I won't lose sleep over it. More interested in the red A. Wolv and purple MNMags progression rewards.

    10 days... uggghhh...

    Guess I'll wait til the last three hours and take top prizes.

    Is this going to be possible again, or was that simply the rule change in the middle of the event last time? I haven't seen how rubberbanding works anymore, if at all.

    Assuming no drastic change in event format the only way this is possible is if you got placed in a brand new bracket in the last 3 hours.

    Really looking to take this one easy and just get some late rubberband points to help out the alliance. My IM40 isn't maxed, so there's that, but I'll choose 10 days of actual sleep and piece of mind over 3 IM40 covers I might never use.

    Can someone who's started let me/us know how long the first subs are? I completely forgot how this worked the first time around outside of the easy/hard subs with global bar unlocking (like 3 of 8 times or something) the large iso reward node. Thanks!

    So far the sub looks like 24 hours. I recall there was a ridiculous number of sub events in this event, so I don't think there will be subs that are of 2 days.

    I am going to try all kinds of weird teams this event.
    In Fresh Cut I was tempted to run Psylocke/Ares/Falcon (didn't have usable LT then), so now I'm running this, or - gasp - Bag-Man to deal with goonies, as my Falcon can't deal with CDs.
    Also maxing MMN because he deserves the ISO for sure. It's a pity that cStorm isn't buffed currently but hey, her blue attack is still the only one that does good damage (besides LD).

    I wasn't around when this ran the last time. I'm really happy they're running it again, with rewards that mean I can pretty much skip out on playing much, or any of it. Wooo!!!!

    I didn't get a black Stormhawk cover, and have her at 1/1/0, but another 9 days for the chance at one via a likely unobtainable progression reward? Yep, mostly sitting this one out.

    I don't know whether to sit this out or go for my first IW blue. Everyone sitting it out coordinate with me so I can fill my bracket with slackers icon_lol.gif

    Yes, i can sleep for 9 days. Sorry Storm, but your just not worth it. My sanity is more important.

    Wife: Babe you play this game way too much,can we please cuddle instead?

    Me: You know what? Just for you, we can cuddle for 9 days straight. I will take it easy.....cause i love u.

    Meanwhile, inside my head: mwahahahahahahahahaha

    Hmm, trying to decide what heroes to level for this. Relevant data:

    Mororo: none
    LThor: 0/1/0, level 15 - clearly useless
    Psylocke: 0/2/1, soft cap 28 - would buff to 68 and give me a (useful) active black, especially with strike tiles from A Wolv.
    A. Wolv: 5/2/5, at his soft cap of level 77 - obviously using him, and hoping for more red covers to max and respec him
    2* Cap: 3/5/5, currently level 9, not quite enough ISO to max - iffy on this: yellow is too expensive, red overlaps with wolv
    MNMags: 4/4/5, currently level 37, could max - red overlaps with a wolv, and would destroy strike tiles most likely, but generates AP; gives an active blue and purple; would respec to 3/5/5 with the purple progression reward

    I also have an 85 Thor/Ares/OBW/CStorm, all standard. Thinking either

    a) buffed Wolv/buffed + levled Mags/unbuffed CStorm
    or
    b) buffed Wolv/buffed + leveled Psy/???

    CStorm/MNMags/Wolv should work for you MN will feed Cstorms blue and Wolv can pick up the pieces

    Yay, a PvE where I can relax and play whenever I feel like it to gain some ISO. So happy that there's no new character released here, especially since I won't be able to play the last day of this event.

    Wonder if there's some concern at the devs that the state of PVE is SO bad that everyone is happy that the rewards are **** and they can sit this one out?
    Probably not.
