Thanks for pointing out those essential nodes as I completely missed out on them until now with 4 hrs left in my sub

I seem to widen my lead by 1-2k each time a sub finishes. There's no taking the foot off the gas at the end even with a 10k+ lead because of it tho. That gets eaten away fast with 4k+ individual nodes yeah, i was hoping to cruise the rest of the way to a T10 finish, I'm 4th in your bracket. but with so many points up in the air it's no rest for the weary

If ever there was a time grinding like a loon for top #10 was well worth the effort, getting 2 Elektra covers in Prodigal Sun was it. I've been feeling quite the opposite actually. I made top 5 in my bracket (nearly burning out on the game as a result), plus the alliance cover, so have a 2/1/1 Elektra. After using her through her PVP, and through this, I'm feeling like her name should instead be Elektra (Unplayable). She's Baglady 2.0 as far as I'm concerned. I could have enjoyed life a lot more, and gotten a single cover to do essentials. Now, some of this could be that I'm speaking from a place where I have a maxed and fully covered XF , but I can't see a reason to use her. She's equally as vulnerable to tiles being overwritten as was prior to his reboot. And in this one, goons drop black and red countdowns, and aren't laying down any strike tiles to steal. At least the wave nodes are an interesting take on PVE. And they provide enough points that by doing a single clear and then hitting the waves 2-3 times in the next day, I've been keeping top 300 for the token in each sub, and sometimes higher.

I've used it on plenty Debilitating Slashes. Worst part is trying to keep a match of hers on the board for when you want to use it

I know it's hard with the leaderboards going down almost immediately after the event ends, but what did you others in the earlier slices see for scores/Top scores? Anyone over 200K right now? Post, Plz K Thxs.

On contrary, I think Elektra can be really good PvE focused character against any single target abilities goons. Though Tommy guns and Flamethrowers will just kill rest of team, so I'm unsure if it's worth leveling character for such niche. And her Doublecross really need a flag for AI 'Do not use if there are no '.
