    25 versus missions with Guardians, thanks a lot Devs. Guess I will be retreating a lot.

    The pvp tasks don't require using GOTG characters to complete them. Use any character that you want. I used Chasm/iHulk on lightning rounds and Surfer/iHulk on the Beast pvp and didn't have a single problem knocking out those tasks.

    Yeah those went fast.
    The really terrible ones were the match colours ones - mostly because they only open one after the other.
    Having those open all at one would have made this a million times easier.

    Just so we have a list… Tier 4 currently has 17 quests (and maybe an extra one at the end like prior tiers):

    -Fire 5AWarlock’s purple 50 times
    -Complete 40 missions
    -Fire 5Gamora’s black 50 times
    -Fire 5StarLord’s green 50 times
    -Make 100 red matches (similar to prior tiers, these color ones happen 1 at a time)
    -Make 100 blue matches
    -Make 100 green matches
    -Make 100 yellow matches
    -Make 100 black matches
    -Make 100 purple matches
    -Make 100 TU matches
    -Make 400 matches
    -Use 10 Boosts
    -Play 35 PvPs
    -Use 25 TUs (this isn’t an extra. Actually part of the 17, but it does stack with the quests from tiers 2 and 3, so wait to do those until you have all 3 tiers showing and then only waste 25 TUs, instead of doing them each separately).
    -Give 10 TeamUps to alliance
    -Deal 6M damage (used to be “to GOTG character” but I believe there was a fix that any character now works).

    You happen to have a list of Tier 3? Not the initial tasks which someone else already listed but the final 4 that come later? I’m on the initial batch of t3 and curious what awaits.

    Tier 3

    -Destroy 50 enemy SAP tiles(75 4* drax shards, 10k iso-8)
    -Activate Gamora(Awsome Mix 2)'s Deadly Strike power 25 times(75 4* Gamora shards, 10k iso-8)
    -Activate Rocket & Groot(Awesome Mix 2)'s Don't Push This Button power 25 times(75 4* Rocket & Groot shards, 10k iso-8)
    -Complete missions 35 times with GotG characters on your team(10k iso-8)
    -Activate Mantis(GotG)'s Oversharing power 25 times(75 4* Mantis shards, 10k iso-8)
    -Activate Star-Lord(Legendary Outlaw)'s Slight of Hand power 25 times(75 4* Star-Lord shards, 10k iso-8)
    -Activate Yondu(Awesome Mix 2)'s Ravager's Ruse power 25 times(75 4* Yondu shards, 10k iso-8)
    -Complete 10 Tier 3 quests(Guardians Prize Vault Token)
    -Make 350 matches with GotG characters on your team(2 Elite Tokens)
    -Use 10 Boosts(10k iso-8)
    -Play 30 Versus missions(2 Elite Tokens)
    -Use 20 Team-Ups(10k iso-8)
    -Give 5 Team-Ups(4 Mighty Tokens)

    Hope this helps.

    On a separate note, not super thrilled with the location for giving 10 tu's in tier 4. Preferred the tier 3 location. All that work and I can't compete the final tier cuz I'm not in an alliance. Weak.

    Cheers, I am past that one and now having to use the bloody Guardians powers ones!

    Seeing how extremely grindy this is, I'm curious what the metrics show for the participation in this. I can't imagine a lot of people even completing tier 1.

    I'm pretty sure engagement will be high, because every casual player will work on these.
    Now, they won't FINISH, but they'll work on it.

    They could have at least made it so we had to fire Gamora's blue stun sixty billion times or whatever it is and not her red. 10 red AP! And it sucks!

    For those doing the grind, is it even fun? I have my own thoughts which I why I won't be doing any of it on purpose.

  • Bowgentle
    Bowgentle Posts: 7,926 Chairperson of the Boards

    Of course it's not fun.
    It's mindless matching 3.

    I have actually run out of team ups making me realise I didn't have many team ups and need more team ups just to mindlessly use them. As for it being fun - I mean firing R4G's green multiple times is sort of OK, firing 4 Star-Lord purple is getting tiring and firing Gamora's red is like having broken glass floating in your beer.

    So no, not really.

    Overall its terrible grind. Also seeing a quest u cannot complete because u need specific 5* cover is depressing...

    HOWEVER... getting chunks of 100k iso at tier 4 is feeling good

    Oh there are 5* quests to come also? Great, can't wait!

    Yeah.
    Adam, Starlord, Gamora.
    And there's 3 hours left on puzzle gauntlet.

    Adam doesn't have a GotG affiliation. I was gonna use him for some of the other boring stuff but was worried it would not count. I guess they forgot about updating that before very specifically including him in an event where the Guardians are taking over.

    Any reason you can’t join an alliance for the week to finish it out?

    I was possibly a bit critical of these before.
    I mean the implementation could have been a lot better but the time given to complete these are realistic enough.you dont have to spend every spare moment on it you can just pick at it

    Disagree. I think the time is not realistic. Maybe if all the Tier 1s had opened at once, I might change my mind. But the timeframe is not realistic, especially on a season break.

    2 weeks is plenty of time
    Most of my alliance has finished or are on round 4.
    Puzzle gauntlet has helped a lot though...

    I would gladly forego some rewards if it means not having to do the 'match x colour 100 times' again, Once in Tier 1 is enough, but to repeat it again for the final tier is just lazy and artificially inflating game time.

    Don't forget that this game is designed for mobile gaming. People don't and shouldn't want to be glued to their devices for hours.

    Devs - can we have another puzzle ops please!?!?!? Don't make me take Drax and 4* Star-Lord into PvP...

    Seriously?!?!?? Screw that I am not doing that again! Fine, you win Devs, I am sorry about all the jokes over the years...
