Venom PvE has been announced. Expect limited rosters, buffs to human torch: the usual. Save up your iso for the buffed heroes in the event!
Captain America (Super Soldier)/Thor (Modern) as the top 3* placement awards
Hawkeye (Modern)/Storm (Classic) for the 2* placement awards.
Looks like this event is going to be divided into 2 rounds like Heroic Juggs
Limited Roster:
Iron Man (Model 35)
Storm (Modern)
Wolverine (Astonishing)
Hawkeye (Modern)
Spider-Man (Bag-Man)
Black Panther
Psylocke
Human Torch - Powered Up
Excited! Definitely hope it works like the last Juggs Heroic split into two.
The first Venom Heroic was horrible. For those who don’t remember (which, if you were around, you remember)…if you were in first place in your bracket, every mission was worth 5 points. If you were 2nd or later, every mission was worth 300 points. Ah, rubberbanding at it’s finest…
Featuring the completely speculative and entirely bogus lineup of:
Human Torch
Captain America (Steve Rogers)
Daredevil. (Because most of the nodes are mob only)
Magneto (MN) (He won the coin toss with Modern Hawkeye for the countdown tile generator)
Thor (MN) (Twist the knife a little more for those that sold and say “we warned you”)
Black Widow (Modern) (See! We included Widow in the event!)
Hawkeye (Classic). (He’s feeling neglected and needs dusting off)
If at least one of my good support guys isn’t ruled out like in Heroic Juggs (Hood/oBW/Spidey), I will actually enjoy the event same as most other events.
Hopefully Spidey won’t be ruled out because, hey, Venom.
Spidey is a big part of the Venom chapter. Assuming he is allowed outside of mandatory teamup nodes, Spider-Man should make this substantially easier than the last Heroic chapter.
I hope I can just join this one on the last day too.
I’ll bet you guys that Psylockes gonna be a character in this heroic, since she’s being handed out as rewards for the widow tourney (which conveniently ends right before the start of the tournament…)
Heroics are only good for those who have been around long enough to build a sizeable roster so that the restriction doesn’t have too significant an impact for them. I only just reached 31 slots after 59 days in the game. Most of the slots are occupied by ***. It will take me a while more before I have the slots to start filling up with the * and ** characters then I can start taking heroics more seriously.
Scaling wasn’t as crazy for me last time iirc. I had fun beating level 130 daken with level 100 IM40 / level 85 Wolvie / level 1 mBW personally =D. I would not have enjoyed that event nearly as much if they were 230s though.
