What's New MPQ - July 2023 (Updated 7/10/23)

That sort of rings a bell.

I can’t imagine Psylocke would have been very useful though. Maybe that is why it takes 7 days to sort out. Hey Devs - get Nick Fury to recruit somebody good for this - we can get this sucka down to 4 days easy!

I think it was mostly non-tile-movers for 7 days with the odd villain thrown in for good measure. A bit like a cross between “Unstable Iso-8” and the “Luck be a Lady” section from “Meet R&G”. But I could be remembering incorrectly.

I have seen reference to “Moonstone & Bullseye” (I think it was those two) so expect Dark Avengers.

I thought it was Bullseye, but then thought it was just a load of purple and started to doubt myself. Moonstone seems probable - again, why I think it reminded me of Unstable Iso-8. It was definitely an early Dark Reign inspired storyline.

It will be 2* Bullseye too. Uhh. For 7 days.

I would play Sinister Six every time if I could. Or as I call it “Saturday feet up”.

Woohoo, time to dig up the old threads:

Crikey they made us play this at Christmas time, the old Devs were harsh.

Oh right that was the one with the iso nodes.
@IceIX did you guys make sure CL10 has been updated to today’s format?

For those that care about the story lines (I actually still read them even tho I’ve played them countless times), this is the follow on to ‘Thick as Thieves’ story line.

Haven’t played Brotherhood since September 2017, when I still played CL8, so this will be interesting.

The irony with them creating new boss events is that we see them once a month, so will often be a year plus before we see some again.

It’s all available on DonkeyTeeth’s amazing PVE Details spreadsheet:
[MPQ PVE Details - Google Sheets]

You can mouse-hover over any of the cells to see the opponents for each node. Scores (by CL) are detailed, as well.

Iso-8 Brotherhood is loaded with Dark Avengers and goons.

Where was that mentioned? found it

Is it gonna be a 7 day event still cuz the calendar shows it running for 4 days? Completely new to me either way, I hadn’t started playing last time this ran.

The calendar stops after 4 days of the event.
It will run over into the next graphic.

I can’t seem to find much reference to it - seems it was ran back in May 2016 when we still had PvE scaling, lol! If that was the last time then I probably have played but I would have been a 2* player edging into 3* land - so this might as well be a brand new event I guess.

Somebody will have a spreadsheet on all of this - when it was last played, points values, etc etc.

I always forget about this spreadsheet. I wish it was stickied in another Forum someplace at the top so it was easy to find the link.

Hopefully they tested out the new UI with a 7 day event

While they’re bringing back Iso-8 Brotherhood, would it be too much to ask to spread out the nodes in the event layout so they’re not crammed so tightly together?

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve mistakenly entered the wrong node & had to back out due to how crammed the nodes are in the current Strange Sights PVE. :expressionless:

Yes.
Way too much to ask.
Let’s hope CL 10 looks like we expect it to.

Anybody else reads these topics’ titles in Tom Jones’ voice singing “What’s New Puzzle Quest? Whoa, whoa, whoa…”

I do now

I’m the opposite. I hate when the nodes are all spread out and I have to find them, such as the second sub of The Hunt
