Round 4 is exceptionally awful for me. I have no Hulk no do I have any means to keep the 230 boosted Hulk locked down (sold my MBW and I'm not going to build a new one just for this). Playing casually and just to get the rewards from each one I can do is much more relaxing. Hopefully I'll have enough points by the end to get 2 psylocke covers.

I gave up on my goal to get Psylocke and have jumped ship to the Magneto tournament where I actually stand a chance in hell at placing top 10

Personally, I would much rather have those 3 Wolverine covers in the 75-100 tier instead of driving myself crazy to MAYBE get one or two psylocke covers. Also, are the match-ups randomized at the start of these PVE events? In round one I was able to win both of the 5000 ISO-8 prizes with only a bit of effort, but having to deal with a powered up hulk for 1000 and 2500 just doesn't seem as fair to me. is there a way to add more Facebook players to send rewards to? I chose one when I first started playing and it will only let me send rewards to HIM. Another friend of mine started playing and I'd like to send rewards to him.

No, the rewards were set when they created the event, with the big 5000 ISO gift at the beginning as an incentive to get people playing. As for the difficulty, they're using some sort of scaling algorithm that is kind of broken. At the end of the event, there's no difference between the "easy" and hard versions, except that the easy versions have worse rewards.

Haha, I got better cards out of the 3 regular tokens I just won in the simulator (a Spidey, one Magneto Now) than from all the special tokens I fought so much for. Well, I also managed to grab 2 psylocke covers so that's that.

I got 6 standard tokens for round 4: 2 venoms, 2 yelenas, an IM35 and a moonstone. I guess its payback for all the good luck I've had with my other standard tokens of late.

I just started playing this, and I don't really get the advice in the OP to keep 1000 ISO on hand. Why do you need that reserve?

I think that's way further down the line maybe? I'm still in the prologue and I have just spent down my ISO to level up whenever possible.

Fix posted:I just started playing this, and I don't really get the advice in the OP to keep 1000 ISO on hand. Why do you need that reserve? Before boost costs were doubled and the good boosts changed to cost hero points, it was rare to fight without +3 all/+3 red-yellow/+3 green-black, which used to cost 400 iso8 for 3 battles and would earn you 210-420 iso in a pvp event.

^^EDITIf it makes you feel better, dude, I don't have THOR. 6 or 7 covers is quite a bit to randomly dump. Especially on a 2 star hero. I'd sooner dump a maxed 1 star because you can build them back much quicker. I feel bad about deleting my moonstone and I only had like, 4 covers for her.

Black Panther's skills don't look that great aside from giving a reason to use enviro tiles on the city level.

Didn't manage to grab a Psylocke, oh well. It's weird seeing the strongest villains maxed out at level 62 after the last few events (though I know we still haven't seen the next two locations). I rolled a black Punisher from a standard token; I'm already at 3 black, but it could be some time before I get the other colors up to even 3. How's that respec supposed to work?

Syrinxx posted:gently caress now there's Black Panther? I don't even have any god drat Hulk covers yet, let alone DD or Psylocke or Ares I don't mind them adding more heroes, since the actual limiting factor is not the covers but all the ISO you require to level up your dudes. In any case, having 1-4 covers for a hero is pretty much useless anyways. Hogama posted:Didn't manage to grab a Psylocke, oh well.

Nobody knows for sure but, apparently, if you are already at 13 covers and try to use a new one (or spend the equivalent amount of HP) you get to respec your hero somewhat.

D3 spelled it out. If you're at 13 and use a cover for a color that's not at 5, you can pick one of the other two to go down. So if I have Cap'n America at 5red/4blue/4yellow, and get a blue cover, I can make him 5/5/3 or 4/5/4. but not 4/4/5 or 5/3/5.

Does anyone else get a small stutter just as you make the winning move? I rather like seeing what kind of horrible cascade my 10000 hp enemies will suffer when I see that little spike.

Looks like Nigeria should flip soon. Peru's points (about 2/5 of Nigeria's) and lower level versus their progress makes me think someone added an extra 0 to that counter. As for the event, assuming they get the balance right I like the idea of flipping individual places for bonuses, gives folks a reason to stay motivated. And Brotherhood are interesting to fight against, since they poo poo countdown tiles everywhere that power up their attacks. And then boom at low life. I've had a few close calls but it feels more fair than, say, high-level Maggia Thugs getting a single strike tile off. Bruceski fucked around with this message at 09:21 on Feb 22, 2014 |

Just tried my first round in Lone Star tournament. My IM35 (50), MBW (29) MStorm (20) v IM35 (50), MStorm (22), Venom (22) and after an initial few moves the enemy team triggered a stun lock cascade sequence that went on so long my phone tried to go into standby. Literally sat for over a minute just watching my arse get handed to me by the 'fortuitous' fall of the board.

Don't you love how they force you to use Daredevil on a board with all no-names that don't move tiles, effectively making him useless? Thank God they're low level grunts.

Kameh posted:Are the iso-8 brotherhood considered mutants? If not, is there an effective boost against them? They are Brotherhood which has a 20% boost already. I have been having a lot of fun using OBW, Thor and Cap against the brotherhood guys. A lot of thier countdowns are pretty long and OBW steals the right colours from them to feed Cap's abilities. I have found that by the end of the match I am running 2 stuns at a time which slows down the tile placement and countdowns a lot, and with Cap knocking the tiles they place out, I just grind them down and occasionally hit them with Thor's powers.

Obw punisher and Spider-Man make short work of everything in this event. Spider-Man has to be a lower level than obw though, you want her to be stealing the blues and purples.
