Unfortunately no Galactus Hungers in mags PVE guide, so substituting in some Avengers vs Ultron info as a comparison:
This is an alliance co-op PvE. You must join an alliance before starting the event. The first 20 players to join the event while in a single alliance will play the event together.
NOTE: the 21st player to join the PvE in the alliance will be playing on a new leaderboard (apart from the first 20 players), so alliances must be VERY careful to ensure only 20 players join the PvE under any single alliance.
If a player moves to alliance B after starting the event while a member of alliance A, the player will still be competing in the Avengers vs Ultron PvE under alliance A with the rest of the players who joined the PvE while in alliance A. NOTE: at least one player should remain in alliance A for the full run of the Avengers vs Ultron PvE; there have been problems in the past when temporary alliances were formed for this PvE and then completely abandoned before the event was completed.
Im glad to see that Cyclops (Classic) is buffed for this event. Ive run him succesfully in Boss Rush against Galactus (even though he wasnt neither championed nor buffed at that point). So I dont think that he will let me down this time.
At least you didn’t have a crash on the Enter Galactus screen… You are awarded no points, and it’s locked until you clear another Required Character fight.
Quick question: I am in an alliance but haven’t entered this event yet. Per alliance chat, we are in round 3. If I join the event now, will I receive the rewards for the rounds already completed?
I don’t want to miss out but want to start contributing.
One strategy that worked well in Boss Rush, and didn’t require 4* characters, was 3Hulk/3Storm/Kamala. If you got them champed, set them to this:
Hulk: 3/5/5 (as long as the black is 5, whatever with the first two)
Storm: 5/5/3
Kamala: 5/5/3
Generate green for Storm to use her Lightening Strike. Don’t use Green for anyone else, just let Hulk tank until this gets going. Have Kamala only do her purple to generate more green. The idea is with Storm’s Lightening Strike to keep firing it, doing board shake and collecting AP and to keep the ball rolling, not giving Galactus a turn. This should hopefully destroy all his countdowns as you go. Fire Storm’s yellow as you go too for more board shake and preferably BEFORE you fire her green, to increase your chance of getting colored AP. Meanwhile Kamala will keep healing to keep you strong.
Warning: this is a slow fight, and can take time to get going. But if you do, there’s a very good chance to keep it rolling along to slowly whittle him down with Big G barely getting any turns. I was amazed how well this worked in Boss Rush when my 4* teams had failed.
If you do have 4*’s, The one I plan on using in Round 7 & 8 is Ghost Rider + Iton Fist + someone to tank black for GR (I use OML, but that’s not an option for everyone.) Its all about the Penance Stare (5 covers so its 200% damage back), IF generating black for GR, the tank taking the damage to fuel it. It’s health pack costly in nature, usually IF doesn’t survive the fight, but it got it done everytime on the last run of this event (and Civil War)
I got a bit cocky (the difference between levels 4 & 5 are massive) and actually lost a Galactus fight (GASP!). Used your three star winfinite team and was really impressed - thank you!
Just to add to that, Storm’s black just adds to the carnage (but may be a pain if you can’t bust out Kks pink).
My hulk is at level 196 so it was too high to get any retaliation from, but in higher levels, it will definitely be better. I will also make sure to set KKs pink to 5 (forgot).
i KO galactus, go to a node, beat that node and want to fight galactus again BUT galactus is locked!
this happens sometimes two times in a row. my mates in the alliances say the same thing. we cant play galactus although we SHOULD be able to. very hard to clear rounds that way
Does 3* Hulk retaliate (Black/Anger) for 5% of his max health, or current health?
Edit:I ask 'cause if it’s current, I just won’t waste a health pack on him.
Edit 2: I’ve found that if your 3*Hulk is too big for the 5%, IM40 works great at 5/3/5. His Recharge gives Green and Red, and his Unibeam is an excellent Galactus finisher.
