I’m estimating that an average of 2.7 clears per day with only the 3* essential (Colossus) should be enough for max progression.

Adding OBW (2* essential) reduces this average to 2.3 clears per day, and those with all three essentials can do it with 2 clears/day.

Yet 4 clears required to get best rewards from nodes.

So what, you can easily target the cp nodes for the actual best rewards and if you need more iso you will be doing more clears anyway, but for those who don’t want to do a lot of pve these new friendlier max progression totals are a great improvement.

So Peggy is permanently replacing Steve as Cap in this event, huh? S’alright.

They already updated the Graphics twice (two-star Steve to Three-star Steve, and now to Peggy), so who can be bothered to go back?
If anything, I am mildly upset they didn’t update it to feature Sam Wilson for a while…
