Update: Fixed progression rewards to correctly show 10 Command Points at Progression Reward 22. Also adjusted some wording for better clarity.

Hi Everyone,

Nick Fury has officially granted access to S.H.I.E.L.D. Clearance Level 9 for agents Rank 65 or higher. Prepare yourselves with the briefing documents below:

Oh my sainted aunt.

3

Who will be the first required 5*?

4

Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy?

5

The first required 5-Star character will be Star-Lord (Awesome Mix Volume 2)

6

Oh goody. Star Lord, my 1 cover bum :frowning:

7

And thus, the tappers rejoiced.

8

on the plus side my 5* characters will let me do something with them.
on the minus side the extra rewards still don’t remotely seem worth the extra effort moving up from SCL7.

oh well hopefully other people think they are worth it and I will just stay in my happy place of SCL7.

9

Oh goody. Star Lord, my 0 cover bum. :frowning:

10

Open your eyes, look up to the skies, and see…

SCL9 is here!

11

Pvp coming as well?

12

On the one hand, CL9, yay!!! On the other hand, Venom Bomb ewww…

Looks good!

13

Can there be a fix for the tappers @Brigby ? This will now cause even more of this in sl9

14

Alright! My Starlord is 4/2/5. Only lvl 270 though.

15

And the reward bump is practically nothing again. Weee

Edit: progression rewards.

16

So the 5* fight will have points that aren’t calculated for max progression, but will still be a factor in placements?

17

Really excited for this!!

18

My guess is it means that the points obtained aren’t calculated when they set up progression rewards. So, if you clear every other node 5 times, you’ll get the top progression (30 command points). If you do the 5* required node, then you can get top progression without 5 clears

19

so they just casually introduced 5* essentials…

20

Is the required 5* boosted, like 2/3/4*'s? And does that apply to all SCL’s?
