Edit: with 7 dimensions (soon to be 10?) available for rewards, progression, spreadsheet seems the logical step. Hopefully this new format works. Feedback welcome, so any ideas to improve, let me know. (I already miss the character icons
)
Placeholder for now. Working on a format that better suits the various clearance levels. Watch this space
Event Summary
[spoiler]Hearts of Darkness
Length of Event: 3 days
Sub-Events? Yes
Alliance Rewards in Sub-Events? Yes
Number of Sub-Events: 3 Length of Sub-Events: 24 hours
Main Bracket Size: 1000 Sub Bracket Size: 1000
Unique Reward(s): ?
Other Notes:
There are Main nodes to open up the sub-events. These nodes are one time only nodes.
I like that they’ve reinstated the 4* cover for top 10.
In Deadpool vs MPQ, level 7, 2 - 5 got 2 IMHB covers, 6 - 10 got 3 Luke Cage.
In this one, again level 7, 6 - 10 get 3 Squirrel Girl plus Mr Fantastic yellow. The text for 2 - 5 is interesting, it reads as if you get an addition blue and yellow cover, for a total of 1 blue and 2 yellow. I suspect that’s a mistake and a copy-and-paste error from the previous event.
I`m running Hulkbuster, Jean Grey and Scarlet Witch. SWs “Arcane Incantation” gives you a bunch of purple AP for JGs “Mind Over Matter” which will instantly kill the most of your enemies. HBs “Repulsor Punch” will down the rest (he deals 1.4k damage for each red AP, just crazy!).
In DP vs MPQ I used Mr Fantastic to round out the team of Jean Grey and OML, but I have to agree Hulkbuster is a lot more fun! I really ought to respec him to 5/3/5 though since I am unlikely to use Overdrive…
Starting all the timers in sub 1 was good for around 10000 Points. I guess it depends on how much Points go up in later nodes - if they increase by 50% between subs then just starting the timers will get you to final progression.

Crazy thing for me is that I am not even using my champed HB that much, champed Thing with IM40 as the battery just seems a fair bit quicker pairing to go with Jean.
Having made it through the first several clears of sub 2, 4 clears (2 on wave nodes) should get you progression. Because the first two subs are so heavy on all-goon nodes, if you can clear those more than four times, it should make the last sub much easier if you don’t want to have to hit some of the more difficult ones there as much. I’ve been going to check marks on the wave nodes and trivials and not so much on the harder ones and it looks like I’ll have all but the final two progression awards before Sub 3 starts. That should make the last day much easier…
I’m still getting my head around the new scoring system because I’m only just jumping back into PVE with the CL changes. From reading this thread, it would seem that to hit max progression you should get every node to the countdown timer? Is that a fair assessment?
I’m generally just interested in the 4* cover progression so probably don’t even need to do that, I guess?
