They could easily farm point this way and brush past the opposition, keeping everyone else below the top 50, even 100 rank. That ability alone gives no challenge at all in PvE and gives easy wins, this seriously needs a change if future events like this are planned for the future. Some of the heroic missions seem to be designed this way intentionally. But truthfully, don't most players have a reasonably high level Storm at this point? And if they didn't before, it seems like there was plenty of opportunity with the Thor tournament. Of course, some people may just not like using the character, which I suppose would be a fair point if they did design those missions with her in mind.

I'm not trying to be argumentative, but you'd have to be pretty unlucky not to have amassed a decent number of her covers at this point if you've been actively playing. And having her at max level isn't remotely necessary. Mine is at 50. Admittedly, if you don't have her, for whatever reason, I absolutely agree with you it would be at a big disadvantage for some things and that's worth discussing.

Skyedyne wrote: As thought to a solution to the exploit problem, perhaps a change to her yellow is needed. I propose the following: Whenever an ally is dealt more than 60% of their health, Storm retaliates, dealing the same amount of damage received to the opposing team. At each rank up from there, it's -10% threshold, till it reaches the 20% threshold. Admittedly, it would seem like keeping the threshold high would be advisable, so it's still a work in progress, but dealing the same damage back would be a nerf to team comps using throwaway characters, since you no longer deal massive damage off your 300 hit point character taking only 60 points of damage.

If that is > the percent you need to trigger, it will still go off. Besides, ap generation off green and a high damage, multi target 4 turn stun is hardly worthless.
