How is Loki against those countdowns...I have a low level one, but does it let you take control of ALL countdowns, because that seems like you could easily cheese PvE with that no matter what.

Magneto NOW actually seems like a great partner for OBW for this PVE, at least against the Maggia, considering that their most dangerous abilities are Blue. Get purple, use Magneto's ability to destroy the Blue Countdown Tiles, and then use OBW's Blue to delay the Yellow Countdown Tiles. You'd need to pair them up with someone who's good on offense, like Patch or Ares or whatever. Also you'd need to get enough Purple AP as soon as possible.

And Loki doesn't have any skills that lets him manipulate countdowns. His Black manipulates enemy Strike / Protect tiles by turning them into friendly Protect / Strike tiles.

You're thinking of Moonstone, whose Black lets you take control of a random enemy Countdown Tile.

Ahh, you're right.

Actually I still see more thorverines than that.

Old habits for hard (but still a lot fewer than before).

It's not old habits, it's what loving choice do you have if your top five characters are Thor, Wolverine, Model 35 IM, M Storm, and M Black Widow?

I had three maxed level characters wiped by a level 25 Magneto and co. After the third turn, Magneto started using effects, and 25 minutes later I was done. I literaly had to put the phone down and walk away because it wouldn't end.

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 keep it in case an event boosts a hero I have a few levels on...I can then jump a few levels for the event.

Dakens still not that good though? He has almost no hp and maxes out at level 69 (why?) so you're making your team more vulnerable on defense.

Because his max skill level is 10? Same issue with Black Widow (max level 40 instead of 50)

From the one or two times I've used the power, it prevents a ton of damage; it's just not practical to get to that point in 99% of fights.

I think it would be better if they made it three random yellow, and cut the cost down to like 8.

That's why I'm aiming for 75 in the simulator. Sorry, Pizza Dog.

Speaking of which, I assume that OBW best loadout is 3 purple and the rest maxed, isn't it?

Or course it is as mine is 5/1/1 currently!

First time hit first (I hope) in both events and made it to just under the captain cover, which I'm happy about as I need the OBW covers more. This is the best I've ever done in an event.


Edit: Got a lazy thor and a lovely two star

That's a free 5000 ISO right there.

So, when exactly do 2 star characters start coming into their own? I got a level 50 Thor (5/2/4) and a level 42 Storm (2/3/3), and they both still feel kinda weak. I suppose C.Storm is gonna always stay ridiculously squishy though.

And jeez, I didn't think the first event was this tedious. I thought I had missed out by not doing it when it first happened but it seems like it's gonna be 6 days of beating up Mafia dons for me.

Yeah, when additional boards didn't spawn, I'm like, this is it?

Friendly Fire posted:

OBW and Patch being boosted in this event makes them a hell of a team. Collect blue so you can delay thier countdowns and then throw out a ton of strike tiles. The strike tiles you generate for the enemies never do anything if the countdown never hits 0.

I've been making GBS threads out strike tiles and then having Loki turn them into defense tiles. I don't have any other use for black really.

Is it me, or are the PVE events incredibly stingy with their 4 "rewards"? I play missions over and over only to get the 20 iso kick in the nuts most of the time. They could at least make it 50 iso.

I think the rewards are tiered and not 25% for each. Empirically, it seems some missions are set up like 40/30/20/10 or something

I think that after you win the first time you have a 50/50 chance of getting either the 20 iso or one of the remaining rewards.
