    I need the red Cyc cover as well, but might be tough to get into the Top 50 without having the Fury ESS. Wondering if I should grind for 7 days if my lack of Fury is going to keep me from getting t50 OR if I should take it easy and just get t150 and get the black cover?

    What really sucks is Fury is my only missing 4* and of course the reward is a Cyc cover and not a Rags or QS.

    i've made T10 in a story event without the 4* essential( i have them all now) so it is absolutely doable, especially since this is not a new release


    Ha ha, I pulled a Fury this morning from a Krakadoom token. Sweeeeeeet!

    Ah, yes, scaled-up 2* Wolvie being fed red by ninjas. Ticking time bomb to getting claws in your face. Good times, good times.

    lol @ people who think cyke is bad rewards....

    No one has said Cyclops are bad rewards. Most people that have commented said they will play b/c they want the covers or prefer that the covers were different for the reward tiers.

    I definately could use psyclops covers, but not 7 day grinding for him. I'll make a break for it and hopefully get my first red for him.

    I've got 0/4/1 lol.

    I already grinded out EOTS last time around. Which was literally less then 3 weeks ago. so pass on 7 day participation.

    Having a tough time with last node, "Nowhere to Run", in the current sub. Seem to wipe better than 50% of the time. Most reliable team seems to be Thor/OBW/Hood. It's also curious that the team-up seems to vary between Illusions and Lethal Improvisation. Illusions keeps giving the AI very nice cascades. What teams are people to using for this node?
  • I was using cap/cage/hood but with hood tanking all the colors I was always loosing him. So I changed to lthor/cap/hood and it was surprisingly very easy win. My scaling has gone up quite a bit now though... But there's only the grind left for me in this sub and all I need is the black cover icon_e_smile.gif

    Yeah that one can be tricky. Not had any problems with it this time but I have in the past. But on saying that might get trickier come grind down.

    Used Blade, Falcon and Daken first time just for fun and it actually worked well. Also did it with the Hood, Trusty Steve and Cmags and then GSBW, Prof x and Hawkeye which was over so quickly.

    Probably better combos but these ones were fun to use.

    I don't need a black Cyclops, and doubt I can make Top 50 for a red... but I'm grinding this 7-day event hoping to reach the Daredevil red progression award at 80,000 points.

    Geez, that's a lot of points to pile up without Nick Fury. I'm currently at 29,130 with 4 days, 18 hrs left. Can I make it? Do the point awards scale up in the later subs?

    this events points are bloated, particularly in the later subs in the survival nodes. Trust me when I say you won't need to grind to make it.

    Yeah, for example the OBW essential survival node in the second sub for me is 2k+ points. You'll be completely fine as long as they keep on not gating the survival node with NF.
  • Shame that I can't focus on this event. Almost full clears even off by hours would've netted me Top 100, probably Top 50.

    This made my day. 80000 is a **** and I just want that cover.
  • Looks like no one is really playing that event.. I found myself T10 with very little grind when I was only looking for T150...
    If only it was the same during 4* release icon_lol.gif

    Guess I can really really take it easy then.

    You also have to remember that it's end of season. People need heals & time to push to reach 2k in Shield and get carnage cover. And also push to get the 1k deadpool cover in Pool Party. Unless you're missing cyclop colors, that event is at the bottom of the list. icon_cool.gif

    dont worry about progression...with bloated survival node points, and 7 day rubberbanding everyone can do it icon_mrgreen.gif

    I have a different experience - I feel like the bracket I'm in is pretty grindy. I'm at #32 with 78k pts as of Monday at 9:15am EST. Top guy is already at 108k. Did you join late?

    that may be the bracket i'm in. seems the guy grinding the heck out of this bracket doesn't need any of the covers, he's just showing off? or bored? or he gets a premium award from some secret vault somewhere?

    He might be farming iso from the nodes, and also aiming at the HP rewards from finishing in the top placements for each sub. There's more to aim at besides the covers after all
