Be Excellent To Each Other

It seems they aren't direct copies, the 10% match boost is now a 20% for example.

And the stockpiles are for 1 instead of 2

Damn. The alliance is full

You should start Beex 2.

What does being in an alliance get you?

Nothing at the moment

There are plans for more functionality in the future that will use them, but i'm not sure what.

In an ideal world, the ability to donate covers you don't need.

Not enough ISO

STAMPQDR

Wha?

Beex 2: So Talk About Marvel Puzzle Quest Dark Reign

I thought he had joined the Roman Legion

Yes, interesting...

Yeah, I was gonna post that too

Spoilers, FFS!

I had the ever so nice 'save file corrupted' yesterday. But then everything seemed fine.

Cool story, bro.

Huh. Just got a regular recruit token that gave me 25 gold hero coin point things. That's pretty cool.

You sold it?

The value of covers seems to have jumped up considerably for the two and three star ones.

No. It didn't give me a cover at all, just the coins.

And yeah, 2* cards appear to have doubled in value, which is good, as I sell them all the time. I think I have all of them for the people I have recruited, apart from Ares and his green skill, which I still don't have. Grrrr.

Level 70 Juggernaut is an asshole. Does just shy of 3000 damage per attack, which only takes 6 red to activate. Then every time I kill him it comes down to Ragnarok and he does a regular match which snakes off a 30-ish match chain, killing someone for another 3000.

Bastard.

Yeah, I got one of those a couple of days ago. Must be a new thing.

Yeah, increasing rewards in a F2P game is nigh on unheard of!

I got 8 recruit tokens this morning from overnight events ending. 7 rubbish 1* cards, but also Dormammu's Aid for The Hood! Yeah! Now I just need to find 4 more...

Punisher is up to L76 now. He's awesome.

I went though about twenty tokens this morning. A couple for cap, A grey widow which I yoinked, and about 15 for Iron Man and Juggernaut

I mostly just crave ISO at the moment. I won't purchase any, though, as it feels like cheating. I had no problem with buying coins to unlock roster spots though. *shrugs*

I burned about 20,000 ISO this morning

Man, I would love that.

They need to enable a trading system for covers. That would rule.

Yeah, I've been saying that for ages. Maybe stuff that's swappable/buyable from other members of your alliance or whatever? I'm always getting ** covers that are bugger all use to me.

I've earned and blown like 15000 ISO over the last few days levelling up Psylock and Black Panther from 15 into the early 40s.

Of course, there's a very good reason why they won't - that's a big chunk of their revenue stream.

Is it just me, or have the increased the frequency of 20 ISO rewards when you still have rewards left to earn on a fight? I seem to have to do a fight about 20 times to get everything these days.

Yeah. On some it seems time or reward based. I could do them all once and get one prize and then 20 for all subsequent efforts... but come back 12 hours later and they all pay out again. Odd.

Only having one pvp quest to do is a bit shit. I've got to 500 points to get the coins, and there is still over a day to go, so I'll get dropped back down the rankings overnight.
All the current battles are worth fuck all to me at the moment, in terms of points.
I've run out of things to do.

What's your score on the training simulator? Given the lack of decent events I have started getting points from there. Just got 100 coins for reaching 1000 points, and reckon I can still go on a bit further... you can get 3* covers, including a Spider-Man one I need (web bandages).

I got to 1000 then stopped, I've been dropped back to 585 now.

Might be worth going back up. If nothing else it's 105ISO per fight.

More now, due to the 30 "non-pussy" bonus.

Seems they're gonna run the Hulk event again, or something similar.

Boo if repetition!

Yay for free Hulk covers!

Boo if everyone gets them and there are L100+ Hulks everywhere.

The original plan was to make the special events into permanent additions to the prologue after they were done. I wonder what happened to that idea?

Just broke my record for quickest loss! Two turns, against a team I was stronger than. Their first go chained to do 2500 damage, then Thor hit all three of his powers twice in a row. Game over!

Man, I was glad to have an excuse to have a couple of days (mostly) off after power-levelling the big event over the weekend.

In unrelated news: fuck high-level Spider-Man. He's just passed Classic Black Widow on the list of Dudes I Make Bloody Sure I Kill First.

Yeah. He combines Bullseye's annoying protection with Widow's healing AND can stun you as well. He's an ass.

Got another Doom cover, though sadly not the best one (Black). When powered up he is an absolute monster, so I'm gonna get him as high as I can.

Hulk event has powered up Punisher, Hulk, Widow and Thor (and a couple of others).

Thor is a monster when powered up. His green attack does 2000+ to the target and 1000+ to all other baddies, and I only have him at L40!

Also, you can win a new 3* Thor, which appears to have the exact same skills as 2* Thor. Odd.

Thor, Black Widow and Storm are powered up. I have Thor L85, BW L82 and Storm L77. It should be great, but the crazy PvE scaling means that it makes no difference

Some of the easy levels get ridiculously easy though.

BOOM! EAT MY MOLOTOV COCKTAIL!

I have no idea what affects the scaling, but it seems mostly linked to how everyone else is doing on the mission, which is a bit crap.
Get in early before anyone else and you'll have loads of easy fights, get in late and you'll have hard fights.

But the easy fights earn a lot fewer points.

Swings and roundabouts.

Also, Storm is not powered up.

So she isn't, why did I think that? I'm running with BW, Thor and Hulk in the main.

Not when you first start off, the points stay roughly the same regardless of the enemy level I find. It's only towards the end of the mission that the points start to ramp up.
