It does say earn, so its probably the same reward structure as the last cho event, colourless Coulson?

Well, that took all of 8 minutes.

I got a purple Coulson cover. Did other people get purple too, or was it randomized?

It’s a randomised cover. I got yellow.

So RNG continues to hate me. Excellent.

I know, right. Was fun, but expecting a little bit of a challenge Ala Growth Industry.

Got yellow Coulson.

I think it’s okay because it’s clearly a precursor to another new PVE event, so: interested piqued, I’m excited!

Purple cover here, anybody got a blue one?

It was fun, but short, especially since it’s available for 6 more days.

Well, that was by far the easiest mini-event. I got a yellow cover bringing my Agent Coulson to 3/2/3.

I got a blue, now sporting a 0/1/1 AC.

That was so fun!

I got a blue as Coulson’s yellow continues to elude me. But happy overall with it, especially if leads to more story PVE events with that “To be continued” tag.

How was the story? It’s been so long since we had a new one I completely forgot to stop and read the new scenes until the very last node. Any shout outs to the show, or maybe dialogue about how great that new SHIELD agent Stephen Strange was for this situation of all goon enemies?

Sadly no Dr Strange, but a cameo by Nick Fury icon_e_wink.gif

The story sees Coulson and Quake return to base and find it infiltrated by Hydra agents disguised as SHIELD agents. Fury shows up in a vault that contains unstable tech so I’m guessing this will play a part in the next PVE.

Happily got yellow, 2/2/4 now. Thanks d3.

I liked it. More of these, please.

I got a blue cover (my only one for Coulson as of yet). Am I correct in my understanding, there’s no reason to replay any of the event? You can’t get any rewards of any kind second time through, correct?

You can get boosts as rewards but not Iso-8 or a cover.
