PVE Heroic: Venom (29 June - 3 July)

I can’t recall if this has been run since they started revamping the PVE schedule & formatting. I’ll update with sub info & reinforcements as time permits, regardless.

Sub 1: Sticky Situation (24 hours)

Reinforcements: Falcon, OBW, Storm (Modern)

Sub 2: Rescue Aunt May (24 hours)
Reinforcements: Mohawk, Ms Marvel, IM 35

Sub 3: Rescue Mary Jane (24 hours)
Reinforcements: Blade, Captain America, Juggernaut

you’re missing a star for buffed chars lol (4*) thanks foe keeping the events u2d!

Had a good laugh at this one.

Heroic PVE? Nah, that doesn’t sound fun. Let’s check rewards…
Falcon rewards? Those help folks who run PVE’s sometimes, I guess, what is progression?
Spiderman progression? Ok, gotcha, no reason to even start this one.

ugh, really need falcon yellow.. this is going to be a grind.

What a bust for the post- icon_thing.png
PVE. Not because of what the rewards are, mind you, but because I have no need for any of them ( with the exception of icon_kingpin.png
, but my stance on him is still “Do Not Want”). This one is actually far more important for my F2P account to work through, thanks to the blueflag.png
final prog.
Oh well. I get a PvE break, but at least it’s a small one(i.e.: not a 5 day event).

Geez, they really knocked the difficulty up a notch. Lvl244 icon_loki.png

with limited roster?!

shocked falcon yellow is rare to come back its the only color i have 5 of/// i still say it will be a bloodbbath here as well

DAMN! Must be your scaling because mine are at lvl 150. This is going to be difficult for because I already got defeated twice by the lvl 150 Bullseye, Muscle & Yelena Belova in the Veonm: Heroic. icon_e_sad.gif

Getting my tush handed to me by Normal From Russia node. Level 162 Bullseye/Muscle/Yelena wreck me. Those strike tiles, that the Muscle drops all over… 765 damage each… Limited roster makes this wicked. I have tried starting on the muscle, and when I do that, frickin bullseye takes out one or more of my guys usually in one shot. Sheesh.

I managed to grind out 99th place in the Hunt so I managed to get one cover of the Thing, but whatever I need for this is escaping me. Sheesh.

Thanks devs, for setting my scaling based on the levels of my Fury and Carnage, because when I think muscle goons, those two characters are definitely at the top of my list…

… of characters I’d never consider using.

I actually had a surprising amount of luck on most of the nodes using spidey/falcon/punisher. it can take a while since punisher doesn’t deal a ton of damage each time, but once a few special tiles are out there that falcon can strengthen it starts to add up. plus if you put a lot of effort into getting enough blue to always have a few in the bank for redwing to come out and play, and use your spares for spidey to stun and delay those CD tiles or keep bullseye from making any more protects, it’s surprisingly effective. and minimal loss of HP with all of those protect tiles out there from spidey’s and falcon’s pinks…

just hoping that strategy will continue to work for me on the next clear, scaling’s already pretty brutal for me relative to my roster strength…

Sounds like a lot of fun!! Another heroic were you are locked from using most of the roster you have built.

Well at least they will be fresh for PvP. Also need those falcons. Mine is on the second last page of my roster.

That’s a quite good team up, tried it & it was (somewhat with cautious playing) a breeze on the 2nd clear.

I have discovered that Spidey / Falcon / OBW are not the best team, offensively. Who would have guessed.

LOL! icon_e_biggrin.gif

My 3* roster for this event is in pretty poor shape; Spidey 2 covers, Falcon 2 covers, DD just 1, Punisher 4/1/1, KK 3/2/1. Only Hood at 5/2/2 has any punch to him, but he’s so darn squishy. 2* Thor’s got his work cut out for him.

I did seem to luck into a fresh bracket this morning so maybe I can hit T50’ish.

T50 is my goal, somehow sitting at #3 ( i know it won’t last), but T50 is looking good, i really need that icon_falcon.png

This event sucks.

My heroes are absolute garbage for this one.

Using Thor and IM40 with 2 yellow. Yellow into red and red into yellow. Damage is obviously crap but hammer spamming amuses me and it works. Blue goes to obw or storm depending.

This will be the first event since I started playing that I’m not participating in. That roster is garbage, I don’t need Falcon covers, my scaling has me fighting lvl 265 Loki/Muscle teams with NO way to deal with countdowns other than Starlord’s purple? …yea, no thanks. I’ll take a pass on this one. Have fun y’all!
