Avengers Alliance - Part 5

[Dark Raven]

I don't think it's part of Avengers Alliance. Is it a Facebook check? Or something on your browser?

BTW, there haven't been any of those captcha things when receiving gifts for this SO. Before it was really annoying having to type them in all the time but they seem to have eliminated that now.

It's a facebook check, is there a way around it?

 

[Hellion]

Nice. I haven't won the 1000 in about 4 spec ops. Finally ran out of iso today, before then I hadn't hit zero this whole time. Managed to do all the tasks and 3 star mission 1 and 2 with the initial stock and daily gifts

If it get it it's usually on the last day. I'm just happy I might actually finish this time. It's been ages sine I've finished an SO.

Was the Blade/Morbious SO the last SO? I was at the last mission but ran out of Iso. Hate it when that happens.

 

[DawnWarrior]

Nah, the last SO was the Inhumans, with Crystal as the prize. Blade/Morbius was the one before that.

I'm on task 24 and only need to 3-star Mission 1. It looks like I'll finish Monday if I can hit at least a 20 UIso spot on the roulette and/or get several deploys to drop UIso. Otherwise, I'm finishing Tuesday. If I hadn't collected from my allies so soon the day the SO dropped, I would have enough UIso.

Also, I'm still not getting a lot of GBs from my allies. I've only had 2 today and I've got at least 35 active allies in this SO.

 

[Jick]

I'm not even getting UISO from my allies. I hate to depend on others to do stuff.

Yeah I don't know why my allies aren't sending me GBs either. I've only had 2.

I'll probably finish on Tuesday as well. I still have about another 4 and a half hours left of my 36 hour research. I may be able to defeat Hela tonight but it will be kind of late. I probably have enough UISos to 3-star one of the missions, but not enough to 3-star both mission 1 and 3.

Would've been nice if I could 3 star mission 3 all in one go after defeating Hela though. In order to 3 star it, I have to play the whole mission again, and then play it a 3rd time just to fight the epic boss.

I think the problem with this group boss is that he's way too easy to take a big chunk of health off and the initial 10 who get picked to fight are more than enough to kill him fully before others have their chance. I can take 30-40% on just about every version of Surtur so he's definitely one of the easier GBs we've had in awhile.

That's actually rather clever. Hard group bosses generate more lock boxes while easier ones generate less... thus they'll make more money on easier group bosses.

I just killed my boss in 2 tries, this boss is way too easy

lol you might want to rephrase that . but we do understand what you meat

 

[Dark Raven]

I'm up to 5 covers now, 1 duplicate. I haven't even fought many battles at all. I just received a GB reward of 10 lockboxes, so I opened it and fortunately it was a new cover.

 

[Webfoot Hero]

LBs are going to be at a premium since it seems just about everyone on PD's forums is complaining about the lack of group bosses popping up.

Also, I've been noticing that UIso aren't dropping in battles anymore so hopefully they work on getting that to happen.

 

[Hellion]

Have about an hour left in the 24 hour research,
3 stars in Tasks 1-2 (Fixer works well against Ymir, had a few one hit KOs with the bomb, Storm in her blaster Classic worked okay as well, Loki was usually insta-killed though...),
and 30 opened boxes with three covers + 6 unopened with about 1000 Isos left...

...Does task three unlock once the research is done?

 

[Dark Raven]

I need to 3 star Missions 1 and 3 now, and then fight the Epic Boss and I should be done. Don't have enough UISOs for all of that though.

 

[Hellion]

Just started the 36 Hour research...

 

[Morg]

anyone knows how to turn off that bloody security check on FB? I'm getting pissed off having to go through it several times while collecting my ISOs

 

[Dark Raven]

I don't know. It just stopped doing that for me. I thought maybe FB or MAA got rid of it themselves.

I think the bruiser Surturs are the hardest, and they seem to escape the quickest. Fixer is fairly useful against him if you throw a proximity mine first and then later shoot him with your level 1 as it does double damage.

It's annoying when the GBs escape and you've gotten them down to 2%. You just know someone else is going to claim the reward after you've done all the hard work.

Up to 5 covers now and 2 duplicates.

 

[Dark Raven]

I should be able to 3 star all missions by tonight and then hopefully tomorrow I'll have enough UISOs for the epic run. Going to have to fight Destroyer, Ymir and Hela all at once though.

I got BRB this morning with 4 UIso to spare. I finally had 7 more GBs to fight after getting only 2 on Sunday but when I did another 10x opening, I got another duplicate. At 4 covers and 3 duplicates. With how few LBs I'm getting, this is going to come down to the wire.

 

[Hellion]

40 boxes opened (adding 10 more opened to my previous 30), 4 covers with no dupes yet, lousy items though, usually get at least a couple good weapons. Working on Mission 3 stars (I'm at one at the moment) while the research ticks on...

Still more interested in Enchantress, so just as long as I get most of the elemental set (minus the store one, not spending on that) and getting Enchantress, I'm good.

 

[zeroapoc]

Much better luck this time.

 

[Webfoot Hero]

Much better luck this time.

Congrats. I'm only at 5 covers with 3 duplicates. How many LBs did it take? Looks like you got really limited duplicates and/or finally got a good number of GBs to appear. I've now got well over 40 active allies and still not facing the same amount I usually do with far fewer active allies. With past GBs, I would be able to get up to 12-15 at a time in the early going and then only drop to like 8-10 later on. Now it's like 1-2 with the occasional 5-7 at a time. Something is up with how GBs are showing up at random intervals or not at all.

Have you tried logging on at different times?

 

[GeneralAntilles]

Four covers no duplicates. Opened 47 total. Not as many lockboxes this group boss round though
