Can’t complete the nodes but want to read the story? https://forums.505go.com/discussion/19724

EDITorial: Join us in teaming up with your severely undercovered Goddess, dragging I Don’t Sparkle, Useless Blue Furry Lump, Johnny Tosser, MiniAmerica and Ambiguous Magneto as they take on yellow-fed Hood, everything-gorged Mystique and Bruise-treated Doom for three and a half days of fun and frivolity. Disclaimer: Levels of fun and, indeed, frivolity, are not guaranteed.

Second verse, same as the first. I was really hoping for a day off from PVE. Oh well.

I suppose we should be grateful for the 12hr break between pve’s. I was kind of expecting d3 to troll us and start it as soon as the last one finished!

Seriously D3? So soon after the 5 day grindfest you gave us?

Man am I ever fatigued. Been putting up scores high enough to get 10th then 22nd in the last two PvE’s respectively. Not sure I have the energy for another one!

Really interesting to have a mix of Required characters, I like that. Especially because I’m being rewarded for working my tail off to get 4 star.png
Thor in the last event.

this just a mockery and devs seems are sick sadists.
they can stamp new tinykitty characters every week but can’t come up with anything better than just completely repeat previous event right after one ended.
blah… seems that soon they will be releasing character every day or so icon_evil.gif

and forum glitches, I can even whine properly icon_twisted.gif

No rest for the wicked!

So obviously, timing will be different since the event is 1 day shorter.

For anyone who jumped in with the grinders, is the first sub still 36 hours?

Wow. That boosted character list is … special.

So I guess Thora is the Essential character, then?

Looks like each stub will be 24 hours long.

24

She and Blade

That would mean we’d be missing 12hrs somewhere as its 3.5 days long. I’d guess a 36 hr sub and 2x 24 subs so that they can all end at 5am UK time!

84 hours total (3.5 days), so I’m guessing 24/36/24 or 24/24/36 to flip the end time to US friendly eventually.

Meh. She definitely doesn’t look as good as grocket. No way I’m sleep depriving myself for this psylocke part 2.

Specially when blade covers are on the line.

Wow.

Same PVE as the one you JUST FINISHED? Check.
4* reward last time making you grind, new character this time making you grind? Check.
Only new characters (3*, 4*) as boosted, so you only have them covered if you paid? Check.
Still 2.5 hour refresh rates, making it to T50 (much less T10) only possible if you grind like crazy? Check.
Oh, but you can rubber-band at the end right? Except if you are in alliance, force alliances to grind. Check.
And of course, PVE’s still don’t have time selection, so no good for anyone not in mainland US, check.

This is just…the worst.

I’ll probably play at least hard enough to get in the 150 ranking. Shouldn’t be too rough with those nodes that require 4 star.png
Thor. Really winnows down some of the competition.

I’m not trying to be snarky but I didn’t buy a single cover and my Blade’s 5/1/5 and will be covered-maxed by the end of Psylocke’s PVP. I also have Beast cover-maxed but who cares, right? icon_e_wink.gif

2 different essential characters in the same sub?
I happen to have both but with only 50/1000 players winning a Thor cover you are going to see a lot of unhappy customers

I’m taking my chances and forfeiting the first sub in protest of buffed juggs/hood/goons. I’m not sure why anyone thought making a generic gangster the strongest character in the game was a good idea. Who’s with me!? icon_mad.gif

I will say this again - the fact that they’re running the same PVE TWICE IN A ROW is utterly, utterly dumb. I mean, seriously dumb. It’s going to make people HATE this event.

If I was the writer for the event (all 50 lines of dialogue), I’d be pissed. It’s basically making sure people stop paying attention to it ever again.
