If round 7 and 8 have similar increases it will be difficult to clear round 8 / unlock the third cover, especially if top end PvE'ers are going all out in Enemy of the State for individual Hulkbuster covers. We'll see how the numbers work out but it looks like this event is going to take a lot of grinding. Tiny kitty back to back overlapping PvE's - surprised Combined Arms isn't releasing Scarlet Witch covers so you'd have to manage 4 events in an 8 hour window.

An equivalent of the old method would be if top 50 all get 3 4* covers and compared to that, some players benefit from this while some players do not. I'm sure part of the reason devs do not take most feedback on the forum seriously is because everyone cries about how the game sucks all the time but whenever a bribe is coming to a particular set of people you immediately praise them for being awesome, like the change from T50 to T100 alliance reward for 4*, which at most benefited another 1000 players in the game (50 * 20 alliance = 1000 players) and would immediately be offset had the game actually grown by any respectable amount. As long as this game doesn't even offer an in game tool to recruit players, putting so much weight on manpower can never be a good idea. It just happens that this time manpower is favorable on your side. If they eventually require you to have 30 million alliance points to hit the first IMHB cover which is round 8 you'd be saying how ridiculous this system is, even though that'd be roughly on par with the previous effort expected to get a top 5 finish in a 4* release event.

I doubt my alliance is going to be able to clear round 6, so once again 4* just for top alliances, like always, this event is no different from the others Ps: Well it is a little bit different because this time even top10 alliances wont get the three covers (I doubt anybody is going to clear round 8).

If your alliance cannot clear round 6 it is not really better for grabbing 4* than before, true. Token chances are better which could help but that is not always and for anyone the case. Ultron PvE seems like a bonus chance for 4* covers to me. The usual PvE (Enemy of the state) with top 50 individual and top 100 alliance 4* reward is running too.

If they said in advance that Hulkbuster was going to be very hard to get maybe it would have been different but now it is a big let down. Great Avengers 2 party!
