It is a bit more complex again. Rubber banding is determined by how your main bracket is doing compared to other main brackets. At least that's how it was last hunt.

In fact I find the 3X level 120 fight to be harder than 3X240, because you're forced to use IW so it's basically like only having two characters, and you can't really establish any kind of synergy with only two (none of the boosted character works well in conjunction without Wolverine, but without Wolverine you don't have enough firepower via strike tiles to wear them down, unless you've a high level Punisher, and you sure aren't beating those guys with 2 unboosted characters reliably either).

Once I'm done with this event, I'll be targeting a first finish in Savage Lands. =D Then, maybe I'll do Florida for the free iso. That's a good plan. I've been playing this one horribly so far.

I found the 120 fight to be a lot easier with 85 wolvie/widow than the 240 fight. Even though you're down a character, the villains in the 120 fight have half the health, giving you a lot more leeway when it comes to bursting them down. Furthermore, Moonstone and daken are pushovers for the most part, so once you down ares, the fight is pretty much over. The 240 fight on the other hand, is a lot harder due to the villains taking forever to down, and all 3 having an extremely high dps ability.

My Ares is sitting on 1/2/3. Yours must be 2/3/3 unless you haven't opened the Savage Land sub yet. Ares yellow at 10K progression.

No one can have three red or green covers before tonight unless you can already pull Ares. Max build is (2/2/3) until Savage Land rewards are doled out. It looks like we will all be (3/x/3) with some decisions to make by the end of this thing.
