A listing of the PVEs with 24 or 48 hour subs, or 3 or 4 subs

As players who have been around a while know, there are several PVEs that have two versions: a 3 day and a 4 day. The appropriate one being run is important to help maintain the "2 PVEs in 7 days" rule we follow in the game. Also in the ones with 48 and 24 hour nodes, it can throw players off.

There are:

  • 6 PVEs have subs of different lengths of time (24 or 48 hours)

The Hunt (running now) - has 3 subs. The second sub, Florida, has both a 24 and a 48 hour version.

Unstable Iso-8 we just played before the Hunt has 3 subs as well. The second sub, again, has both a 24 and 48 hour version.

Honor Among Thieves has 3 subs. The first sub, in this case, is the one that varies in length between a 24 and a 48 hour version.

Meet Rocket and Groot has 3 subs as well. The second sub has both a 24 and 48 hour version.

Hearts of Darkness has 3 subs. The first sub has both a 24 and a 48 hour long version.

Webbed Wonder has 3 subs. The first sub has both a 24 and a 48 hour version.

  • 3 that have two different numbers of subs for the same event that have been run at least once before. All subs are 24 hours long, whether there are 3 for 4 of them.

Operation Spider Silk has two versions, one with 3 subs and one with 4 subs.

Cosmic Chaos has two versions, one with 3 subs and one with 4 subs. All 24 hours long.

Infinite Pursuit also has two versions, one with 3 and one with 4 subs.

If someone is thinking they don't remember the last time a certain version ran, that could well be the case, as a few are 5 years or so since they were last run as something other than the one we most recently saw.

I hope this is helpful for people to refer to when they enter and play events.

Infinite Pursuit has two versions, one with 3 subs and one with 4 subs. All 24 hours long.

    Good idea listing this. It also might be helpful for the new devs to note this as it might be likely to be one of the things that were low priority on the passiver notes (if they existed at all).

    I think they can jolly well schedule all the PVE with 24hr sub only without any issues, except the stupid Deadpool VS MPQ. Really don't understand why the need for 48hr variant...

    48 hour variants often seem to be used to coincide with holidays. Takes some pressure off when a percentage of people are trying to enjoy time away or with family.
