A quick back of the envelope calculation is a clear every 2h 24 minutes nets you about 1K points so need 40 clears meaning unless point values increase you need to enter in the next 2.5 days.
With the max reward at only at 40K I cannot see there being much rubber banding in this one. I guess would be there is none.
Assuming they didn’t change the structure to add subs, the rubberband can only be based on the main nodes so you can probably just join the last day and still pick up 40K points assuming the overall leader is over that.
I wonder if it’s feasible to just wait until the last day to join. It is a solid strategy based on event mechanics but it’d fail miserably if everyone else is thinking the same thing. So maybe join 2 days before the event ends to avoid all the guys that are attempting to join the last day?
Without accounting for any change to the format that nobody could possibly know about, the only factor that determines placement in this event is whether you avoided all the other crazies. I think it’s safe to assume you don’t want to join right away, and I don’t think joining at the last day is a good idea too because everyone is likely thinking the same thing. So the question of which of the days between first and last day should you join?
Based on last time this event was done, there is only one main event and every node rubberbands off the overall leader. Therefore there is no advantage to joining early other than the node rewards and one day is more than sufficient to get enough points to hit whatever progression reward you need if the main leader has been on pace (and if not it wouldn’t matter when you joined either), and the placement reward depends only on how strong your competitors are.
If one is paranoid about any unforseen changes then it’d be best to join early, but probably not on the first day which is still the most reliable way to pick up a lot of other crazies in your bracket. If it’s the exact format as before, clearing the nodes once per day is more than sufficient to keep pace as long as you do the obligatory extra effort last day clear.
You’re being Squidward but someone actually needs to, so kudos. I mistook Mindsword the Magnificent for MMN for a sec. iMags is amusing though.
Buffing MMN and not buffing cStorm is cruel, but at least Captain likes MMN, too.
I maxed MMN and mHawkeye back when I was waiting with 200k ISO for the last 3 Daken covers to max him; made sense to max MMN since I love running him with cStorm in PvE, but mHawkeye? I felt like an Insanity wolf! Blame not having anyone else to work on that would not eat all the ISO reserve.
Teams I will run: Psylocke/Daken/Ares, IM 40/mHawkeye/Hood, IM 40/Cap/Hood, cStorm/MMN/Hood… Yeah I love me some Hood…
This is going to be rough event for me. I only have mnMags at max. Steve Rogers and Psylocke can only reach a soft cap of 89 and 76 respectively. I only have 1 cover for She-Hulk and Johnny.
