Avengers Alliance - Part 5

[zeroapoc]

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.

It took 110. I was due for good luck as Hybrid took me 330, which is only a few tries off the maximum possible lol. I've only had a fair amount of GBs, probably less than usual, but was fortunate enough to get a lot of kills on them.

And strangely Enchantress is listed on the team page ahead of Karolina Dean. That just goes to show that this SO was definitely planned to come out much sooner than it did.

 

[Dark Raven]

Only one task left now: to fight the epic boss. I hope I have enough UISOs tomorrow to do so. Then I should be able to saddle up the horse and take him for a ride.

 

[Dark Raven]

Much better luck this time.

Good for you. Did you manage to recruit Enchantress before Beta Ray Bill?

 

[Webfoot Hero]

Have you tried logging on at different times?

I typically check into the game every 2-4 hours so I know when they're appearing and when they're not. So far, I've only gotten them at around 7 PM PST and 3 AM PST. Something is going on in when they're appearing since some of the ones I got this morning had close to 72 hours remaining and some were down to around 20-25 hours remaining. This amount of variation in time remaining has me puzzled as to how GBs are being listed once they're available.

Yep.

 

[Webfoot Hero]

Got Bill going to LVL 4 now. I could have him to LVL 6 or 7 by the time I stop playing tonight.

 

[Dark Raven]

I wish there were a PVP going on at the moment. That would be a quick way to level up heroes. Playing on challenge mode still takes too long and is too much effort compared to PVP where you can sometimes one-shot an enemy.

 

[zeroapoc]

I don't get why we don't have a PVP tourney going. There's no reason that should be delayed.

 

[GeneralAntilles]

Oy... Hela rinsed me in our first fight. Did not realize how crucial Loki's lvl 6 move is to winning that boss battle. Only got 1 star... 400 points away from 2 stars. So probably will need two full playthroughs to 3 star... then another run for the epic task... so 3 more total.
Should take to the end of the week unless I get a lot of iso in the daily rewards

And 40 more hours till the group boss returns...

But at least I'm level 299 now. Definitely going to hit 300 with this spec ops

I for one am glad there isn't because this SO still needs some tweaking and them putting in a PVP tourney would likely split their focus too much.

I don't recall I used Loki's level 6 that much on her. I fought her, Ymir and Destroyer all in one go. I didn't find Hela that difficult an opponent and I'm at a lower level than you (somewhere around 270). I think Fixer might've been my other hero.

Haven't had time (or points) to level Fixer, but he's still pretty handy.

She does a move that gives her and her minions buffs. Fought her with full health and stamina and she does her two moves, debuffs my team, buffs her team. Then her minions kill me in their round as they have fatal blow and can attack multiple times. Using Loki's lvl 6 negates her teams buffs and makes them debuffs. Was able to beat her that way the second time

 

[Dark Raven]

I'll have to fight Hela again tomorrow in the epic run, so I'll be sure to use level 6 on her. Maybe I did but don't remember.

 

[Webfoot Hero]

I don't remember using Loki's L6 at all. I was using nothing but his L1 and L9 through much of the battle with the occasional L2. I had him teamed up with Star-Lord and the battles were fairly easy.

 

[GeneralAntilles]

Huh. Don't know why it was so hard for me. Used Fandral so he could depower her with his lvl 2 but all their attacks are stealthy so it never procs, he could never counter either.

 

[Dark Raven]

I don't recall those minions having stealthy attacks or multiple ones. They certainly weren't like those annoying T-Rex-looking isosaurs who keep biting you incessantly from the shadows and taking numerous turns.

 

[Hellion]

Has anybody picked up the Magick alt? Phoenix 5 or Uniform?

 

[Dark Raven]

Recruited Beta Ray Bill today. But still at 5 covers and 3 dupes now. I had mostly bruiser GBs to fight today. They are the worst, because they escape too quickly and seem more resistant than other classes.

 

[Webfoot Hero]

I'm now at 5 covers and 4 duplicates. I've only gotten 3 more GBs since yesterday so this is going to be one slow, slog getting enough LBs.

Also, I have Beta Ray Bill training to LVL 8 now. He's not the strongest hero in 12.2 but I imagine he'd be good with other heroes with lightning/electrical powers so you can get chain electricity debuffs to pop.

 

[Dark Raven]

I'm up to 6 covers and 3 duplicates. The GBs are not exactly forthcoming.

12.2 on challenge mode still seems too much effort to train up heroes. I used the daily mission today to level up BRB a little, even though he's completely the wrong class to fight most of them, being both a bruiser and blaster, and with most of the demons being blasters and tacticians.

BTW, anyone tried using BRB in 12.1 so he can fight alongside Thor? It's funny with both of them throwing hammers one after the other.

 

[GeneralAntilles]

I wonder if they are going to add an empowered iso to the Sif vs Enchantress heroic battle.

Also surprised Sif had no involvement in this Spec Ops. Figured she and Bill would at least have one coversation

 

[zeroapoc]

PVP this week maybe. I'll go ahead and spoil it...

Nice. Given the reference to the 10th realm in this Spec Ops that makes sense
