Time for another Hawkeye murderfest.

The Psylocke reward is blue, not black (because we can’t have nice things).

Grah! I have a Psylocke sitting at 12 covers with a 3/5/4. Anything other than blue! Really!

Ah well, I’m sure she’ll come up in the PVP at some point.

Yet again, we have the top 10/top 20/top 150 thresholds for the individual covers. This sucks

Mine is 1/3/4, I feel your pain. At least this’ll get her up to nine covers and marginal usability.

Horrible event. My Ares node starts at lvl 144. I mean seriously???

And 6 days for the event?! Grindfest

I applaud your effort, but you forgot to make up funny names for everyone.

There are 3 subs (or at least there were last time) so it’s not as grindy.

[CrookedKnight]

Hmmm. I can raise Psylocke from level 91 into the low 100s, buffing the highest-boosted character in the event, and run her with maxed Thor and OBW, or I can bring Hawkeye up from level 41 unboosted, making a Psylocke-Thor-Hawkeye team that’s lower level but rains Speed Shot death on things after a Thunder Strike. Not enough ISO to do both, sadly.

Decisions, decisions…

Heh, no one really wants to see me to try and be funny…

I’m still trying to figure out why 60,000 points gives you 1000 ISO-8 and 100,000 gives you 500 ISO-8. Have ISO-8 awards ever decreased before in progression awards?

[CrookedKnight]

They have in the last few PvEs other than Gauntlet, IIRC. It seems like they tend to “peak” and then level drop back down. three or four tiers below the final 3* cover.

I added the format to the main post. Last time there were 2 subs, 48 hours each, and then main nodes opened up after the sub-events end.

Great job op. Very descriptive.

Bring back the Gauntleeeeeeeeeeet

Are you sure that was for Heroic DA and not Heroic Oscorp they were similar just different number of subs. 3 48 hrs subs makes more sense with 12 hrs of nodes on the main (with meaningless rb) in fact I’m almost positive that’s what happens.

EDIT: Based on this thread from last time yep 3 subs.

I kind of find it stupid that we are given a limited roster of 8 characters but they chose 2 versions of Iron Man to limit our options further.

Yeah, I was looking through that thread too, seems my notes need updating. Thanks!

Ditto on wishing we’d get a different Psylocke cover.

[system]

Well, yippe kay yee. I just sold my Hawkeye off few days ago for some HP. Serves me right, I should have known devs would make him essential character in the next Heroic pve… well, my brand new lvl15 0/0/2 Clint will do his best I suppose.

I guess I finally have to pump up my Psylocke also. She’s been lvl100 for ages and I just got her the 5/3/5 respec thanks to Gauntlet and that black Psy cover.
