I wish they give us a week or so, would like to stock up on some energy and other items. Been using a lot of energy bars jumping from villains and then hero team

 

[zeroapoc]

Well the Sunfire tasks are here. Also Mister Sinister gets mentioned in the dialogue.

Task #10 is going to be stopping a lot of people from finishing early (unless they bypass it with gold) since you have to do collect a bunch of consumables from deploys and incursions.

 

[zeroapoc]

Yeah that one can take a while. I'm just glad to have something else to do.

 

[Jick]

We'll have to do the Ultron battle again. Man, that was so annoying.

 

[zeroapoc]

Still trying to farm all the materials for the Sunfire research. Missing 1 shield and running 2.2.6.

Also a little while ago Woods basically confirmed Taskmaster as a future lockbox hero.

 

[Morg]

2 hours to go from finishing the 50 hour research, then I have to use the fist weapon 3 times

 

[zeroapoc]

I'm on the research now too. I'm still going to farm the items. Massive PVP bonuses.

 

[Morg]

Noticed how high the PVP points were but going hold on to mine until I know I don't need to use them

 

[Webfoot Hero]

Still 3 Plasma Tubes and 2 Heat Shields away from getting to the research. Had no idea the research was 50 hours. That just seems way too long for a Covert Task item.

 

[Webfoot Hero]

I socketed one Plasma Tube in there not knowing what it was for and am sort of regretting that. Really wish PD would get their forums up so we could get a heads up and discussion for things going on with the game.

 

[zeroapoc]

Well, it's 48, but yeah I agree. This Covert Ops is a step up in difficulty.

Like I said before 2.2.6 is your best bet. Two incursions.

yeah, was surprised when I noticed it was 50 hours

Anyone got the grey Hulk? Thinking of getting it since I got 400+ CP thanks to trying to get those ISO gems and getting nothing but CP most of the time

 

[zeroapoc]

I started my research and then socketed them. They weren't consumed.

 

[Webfoot Hero]

I have him but really haven't found much use for him. I put him on my defensive PVP team for a bit and could never find the right combination. But I face him a lot when I'm attacking and he can be a real PITA. I'd actually save some CP for when you complete the Covert Task for Sunfire and then Domino is recruitable in about 11 days.

Anyone got suggestions for defensive PVP team? I've been getting hammered lately. The team I used last night and today was Generalist QS and Tact. Original War Machine, which actually got me a couple defensive wins after getting none the past 3-4 days.

 

[Webfoot Hero]

I started my research and then socketed them. They weren't consumed.

Well I was getting them before the Covert Task was live for me so I didn't exactly know what they were for. It wasn't until I saw Sunfire pop up on Producer Wood's Twitter feed and then my FB feed that the Plasma Tubes were related to him.

The grey Hulk never much trouble for me in pvp, once I figured out how he goes I can beat him most of the time. The new War Machine caught me several times with that air strike mode though. Still like my red and blue War Machine due to his radiation strike doing so much damage

 

[Webfoot Hero]

Well, it's 48, but yeah I agree. This Covert Ops is a step up in difficulty.

Like I said before 2.2.6 is your best bet. Two incursions.

I've been doing 2.2.3 since there are 3 deploys that are quick and I can farm for empowered Iso in that really easy Heroic Battle. May try your suggestion.

 

[Morg]

Really wish those empowered Iso were more easy to get, still have tons to farm but my luck sucks except getting more CP

 

[Webfoot Hero]

Some are tougher than others. The Heroic Battle in 2.2.3 (CA, IM, Thor) has been one of the best ones as I've gotten 3 for CA, 2 for IM, and 2 for Thor. The toughest empowered Iso for me is QS as I've only gotten 1 of his versus about 8 for Scarlet Witch. The ones in Chapter 3 have also been scarce since those Heroic Battles are still really tough.

Have the Cap and Thor, yet to win the IM one. Been trying to get Night Crawler but taking a break from that and going back to chapter 1 and try those again

I've gotten the ones for Rogue, Nightcrawler, Deadpool, and Cable in Chapter 1 but haven't really tried that much for the others since they're for heroes I don't use all that much. Only ones that really interest me are Gambit and Hercules.
