Will be down around 275 HP at the end, but that's not bad for a 3* cover. Getting over the line at the third time of asking went easier than expected. I was on 1060, with three nodes lined up at 17, 16, 15. I did the 17 first, as it was in the desert and Hulk Smash. Quick win. Got 17 points. Then I did the 16, which was a retal from my earlier push from 1000 to 1060. However, that netted me a surprise 26 points, which pushed me to 1103! Quick screen cap of the award, and then shieldshieldshield!

I think I'm liking the 3* reward at 1100: it makes the cover achievable for those that really want to try, but its still pretty challenging to get there easily. Hopefully the devs don't change it back up to 1200+ or something: this point amount seems near perfect for the reward.

I have a retaliation saved for you Entropic, Ill check and see if you are unshielded before I pop it at the end, I would hate to knock you out right before 1100.

I had saved you for a while hoping you had shielded when I hit you. Hopefully I didn't derail you.

Viorala wrote: So wait, what...do we have a grace period of three matches after unshielding before we show up on anyone's radar? Also, about the retaliations...that's only 30 iso bonus, right? Just like the not-skipping bonus? You guys are making it out to be a big thing. Asking for a friend...
Viorala wrote: Thanks for answering my rather nooby questions. I unshielded an hour ago and it took three matches before I started getting attacked so I guess that's a good guideline but definitely not a rule. Also everyone in my bracket needs to stop climbing ahead of me because I really need a green Grey Widow cover. Although I bet those two unshielded people are gonna start dropping like stones soon, this is going to be a dicey finish...
