Up thread I said Magnow's red was second rate. I take it back. It's pretty good at level 5. His blue is still terrible.

omg last night I played this for the first time in a week -- all my Moonstone covers had expired :( -- and kind of haphazardly did the available events, but the sudden lack of queued covers prompted me to cash in my 3 Heroic tokens, which yielded 2 MagNows (both red) and a Spidey Classic! ^_^

i am convinced that the less you play the game the more it rewards you to return
― PSY talks The Nut Job (forksclovetofu), Friday, 28 February 2014 16:58 (ten years ago) link
Really surprised there's no notification built in to warn you to come back to the game because your rewards are expiring
― Nhex, Friday, 28 February 2014 16:58 (ten years ago) link
xp You're kind of right, in that the game is easier the worse you're doing. While even if you're doing well, except for tourney prizes, the rewards are generally the same (standard token drops and small bits of iso)
― Nhex, Friday, 28 February 2014 16:59 (ten years ago) link
easier, but you accrue considerable iso-8 from the PvE +100 or +200 first time bonuses, so it pays to do them at least once. whereas grinding PvE often doesn't have as much value as you'd hope for all the time it takes, since dumb 20 iso-8 "rewards" pile up

High level doom in these latest levels is so annoying to play.
― Jeff, Friday, 28 February 2014 17:03 (ten years ago) link
I am right on the boundary of getting a Black Panther in my bracket but I am struggling to have the time to keep up with the events. ugggggh but I don't want three 2-star wolvie cards.
― Euler, Friday, 28 February 2014 17:04 (ten years ago) link
i have stopped trying for the new guys for awhile i think. competition is just too fierce
― PSY talks The Nut Job (forksclovetofu), Friday, 28 February 2014 17:05 (ten years ago) link
yeah I go right at doom first, and take black matches even though I can't use them for anything (save espionage; which can pile up when you get a bunch of wolvie strike tiles)
― Euler, Friday, 28 February 2014 17:05 (ten years ago) link
wish they'd make a 2 or 3 star venom tbh, someone who can bomb with black.
― Euler, Friday, 28 February 2014 17:06 (ten years ago) link
that's why I'm sticking with Punisher for these events - otherwise you're stuck with Loki, Moonstone, Bullseye, or OBW (passive) to counter the black. the Doom strike tiles are nuts in this, hitting for 250+ per tile/turn!I'm still in the top 50 in my main bracket, but struggling to stay relevant in these newer subevents. it helps that I rushed like crazy when the event started last week, i don't think i'd be anywhere close if not for that
― Nhex, Friday, 28 February 2014 17:17 (ten years ago) link
i think the PvE missions (well, as long as you can do them - I straight up can't do the ~200 lvled ones often, depending on the roster) are worth grinding at least for the 500 iso reward, the rest aren't too enticing
― Nhex, Friday, 28 February 2014 17:18 (ten years ago) link
I try to grind out the Standard tokens as well, any significant points I get (i.e. > 1) are an added bonus.
I probably shouldn't hold my breath for alliances at some point allowing you to pool rewards look extra covers, right?
― eeeLuvium (Leee), Friday, 28 February 2014 17:20 (ten years ago) link
it's too early to tell, D3P doesn't even seem to have any kind of plan in place. i'd be surprised if there Alliance PVP and rewards wasn't coming
― Nhex, Friday, 28 February 2014 17:27 (ten years ago) link
it is odd how much they appear to be making this up as they go along

What is the best classic storm configuration? I am at 4/4/5 but just pulled a card that'd let me change blue
― have a nice blood (mh), Friday, 28 February 2014 17:31 (ten years ago) link
until this tourney I was pretty down on my cstorm 5-3-5, because of the yellow nerf, but the nerf jacked up the yellow megadamage when you're super low & it's saved my ass a few times this tourney, when I get bashed by a merciless crush but survive, and storm knocks out ~2000 damage to all enemies.
still think I'd rather have 5-5-3 though.
― Euler, Friday, 28 February 2014 17:34 (ten years ago) link
I was thinking of something weird like 3/5/5
― have a nice blood (mh), Friday, 28 February 2014 17:35 (ten years ago) link
Yeah, that is weird, though I guess if you're not too devoted about clearing the board, you can underdevelop her green.
― eeeLuvium (Leee), Friday, 28 February 2014 17:37 (ten years ago) link
big storm green gets a nice board reset, a bunch of ap, and in PvE can take out enough countdowns to save yr ass
but 5 blue would be the main thing and if that's what I got in cards, I'd go with it.
― Euler, Friday, 28 February 2014 17:38 (ten years ago) link
OK, I just realized why I thought classic storm's green was mediocre -- it only really kicks in at 5. hrrrrm.
― have a nice blood (mh), Friday, 28 February 2014 17:39 (ten years ago) link
I guess what I'm saying is I am at 4/4/5 and pulled a blue cover -- should I use it?
Yes!
― eeeLuvium (Leee), Friday, 28 February 2014 17:40 (ten years ago) link
to do... what
― have a nice blood (mh), Friday, 28 February 2014 17:41 (ten years ago) link
My cstorm is 5/5/3. I wouldn't have it any other way.
― Jeff, Friday, 28 February 2014 17:41 (ten years ago) link
Stun + whole team damage == YES TO BLUE! xp
― eeeLuvium (Leee), Friday, 28 February 2014 17:41 (ten years ago) link
okey dokey
― have a nice blood (mh), Friday, 28 February 2014 17:42 (ten years ago) link
So I go to 4/5/4, right?
Yeah, or 3/5/5. Either way 5 Blue is a must for Classic Storm

BamNow
i was top 2 for the first weekend i was playing this black panther tournament but have slowly decayed over the week :( now just on the outside of top 10. gotta click click click this weekend.
― Jeff Malone, no relation (Will M.), Friday, 28 February 2014 18:29 (ten years ago) link
yeah i fell from top 10 to like 80 now.
can't be bothered to fight the 200+ fights anymore, just don't care enough.
― eric banana (s.clover), Friday, 28 February 2014 18:30 (ten years ago) link
on the other hand, pvp with cmags lvl 90 (4/4/1), patches 100 (5/3/5) and spidey 90 (3/5/5) is awful fun.
one set of strike tiles + a few reds and i can take down anyone.
― eric banana (s.clover), Friday, 28 February 2014 18:57 (ten years ago) link
YAY: I just drew a Patch card off a standard tokenBOO: It's on my phone and I have no roster space
― Wahaca Flocka Flame (DJP), Friday, 28 February 2014 19:03 (ten years ago) link
Feeling you, DJP. :(
And per my question on Alliances:
Any plans to let us share rewards with Alliance members instead of/in addition to Facebook friends?Nothing planned for near term, no. That's one of my personal crusades as well. Not everyone has or wants to use Facebook after all.

Same. May be a good candidate along with Daken and Bullseye to use to deter people from playing your team in PVP?
I'm actually in a position to snatch the top prize in two PVE subevents! This has never happened to me before.
