HaT is a slog against the Nameless Ones AND Symbiotes, have another event right away where you fight them in all subs… AGAIN, paired with the likes of Ultron sentries in 1 sub.
A whole week of fighthing these slow annoying goons… Please, no -_-
Bring back Heroics btw… the classic ones with restrictions, that’d be good for variety.
Make them pay every time they slow you down by bringing Dr. Strange. Make it worse by pairing him with people who can juice his passive yellow damage (ex: Okoye, Grocket). Throw in Thanos to make them commit suicide even faster.
Strange makes Mindless Ones and Symbiotes trivial. I mean, the guy’s power set is like a guidebook on how to specifically defeat Mindless Ones. Almost as though he was created to do so… :o
It’s not a big deal. Only Honor Among Thieves is really slow and a little harder. Strange Sights is not that bad. What you really need to be complaining about is running Deadpool VS MPQ after 99% of Boss events.
I kinda look forward to these events, just because I already know how to easily cut through like a hot knife through butter. The daily grind is quicker.
Of course, I always love a new event or challenge, so yes, please bring back heroics too.
Even better I brought 5* Kitty and Boosted 4* Grocket. Just the increased damage every round of Grocket’s Strength tiles makes matches very quick and easy.
I love Strange Sights. It’s always my best placing PvE event because the slices are all effectively split 3 ways. It was my easiest source of HP back when I was desperate for it. (Thank goodness those days are behind me)
Strang3 + Medusa + Okoye (even under-covered) make quick work of everyone except the Ultron Sentries.
Badly placed Eye Beam tile doomed my Kitty/Grocket team in SL9’s 5e’s final clears multiple times, had to resort to Thor/Okoye, mostly for Okoye’s targeted red. 35k unboosted team damage from Mindless Ones are no joke.
4* Cage is good against Mindless Ones. They throw out enough countdowns that he fills the board with protects and mitigates the damage. Then do whatever you want with the countdowns. 4* Fist or Wasp to flip them when you’re ready to go in for the kill, 4* Panther can get you some bonus damage for matching them (paired with Shuri, get them fortified, and fortified protects get loads of bonus damage).
I agree. The more goons, the more moves i get to make. I switch opponents from time to time accordingly to where their countdown tiles are or when they go off. That way i’m trying to get through without taking damage or very limited damage. This might not be the best tactic speedwise, but it’s one i’m enjoying.
I have had the same though as the OP a few times. The Mindless Ones really slow things down and annoy me.
So I took a look back. Now, not all the way. I’m not quite sure when HAT premiered (sometime mid 2017, I’d assume, after all the Guardians came out), but just went back to April '18 because that’s as far as I cared to go.
So here’s the last 9 months of these two events:
4/29/18 HAT
5/3/18 SS
7/5/18 SS
8/2/18 HAT
10/1/18 HAT
10/4/18 SS
11/19/18 HAT
12/17/18 SS
1/20/19 HAT
1/24/19 SS
Which means that there have been 3 total back to back runs in the past 9 months. (out of 5 total runs of each event).
Hopefully the devs shake up the schedule a bit soon. Maybe they will bring back FFW or something.
