I got absolutely hosed with my most recent 10-pack from the season reward. I got 1 3* (Dr. Doom) and the rest 2*. Was way more disappointed than I thought I would be. :-( |

That sounds a bit like my pack from last season. This one was better: a black 4* Wolverine cover (yay!), and two 3* covers (unfortunately not ones I needed). I also decided to spend some of my taco tokens, since I need some Scarlet Witch, Vision, and Quicksilver covers. On my 19th draw, I got a black 4* Deadpool cover. I've got 40 more tokens stockpiled, but it is probably worth saving them up rather than spending them now the odds of 4*'s have gone down for this vault. |

They've released a bit more information about the anniversary event in this month's community video. It seems the next 5* character is Wolverine (since there aren't already enough Wolverines in the game yet), so Red Hulk is likely a 4* character instead. It seems like it's only a matter of time before they introduce 1* Wolverine. The Galactus battle will be similar in structure to Ultron, but reuse existing villain characters for the intermediate matches rather than introducing new bad guys like the Ultron Sentries. |

It' interesting seeing some of the changes in that trailer. In the character select screen, they've picked a Level 300 Model 35 Iron Man (the 1* variant) whose powers are speced as 5/5/5, so it seems all variants of all characters will be on a nominally level playing field. It also shows the old artwork for the various Wolverine characters, so is probably only includes stuff from before the Enemy of the State event was introduced. Having actual interactive multi-player might be fun. I wonder how much it'll sell for? |

Alright, the 3rd super boss in this big event is giving me fits. Any suggestions for a good team or two to try? |

He got stupidly difficult in round 3, while in rounds 1 and 2 I never even saw his black go off. At least you still chip off some of his health when you lose, and there isn't much else to spend health packs on at the moment. I know we'll never see it, but I wonder what round 8 looks like? Death on turn 2? I've had some luck in round 3 using 3* Black Widow, Scarlet Witch and Storm. Scarlet Witch is mainly there to generate purple (which is only mildly effective because I still need more blue covers), trying to lead into Black Widow's purple to generate green. What I do at that point depends on how the match went. I can use Storm's green to clear cosmic tiles off the board and generate AP for other powers, or use Sniper Rifle to just knock a big chunk of health off Galactus. If I get enough black, Storm's Hailstorm attack tiles might be enough to chip away at his health too. This is far from a sure thing. While I've taken him down a few times, I've also wiped without doing much damage when starting with a bad board. I'm not really a fan of this "count down to full team death" match design. As far as other teams you could use, properties to look for are: 1. fast. Either cheap abilities or the ability to generate AP for other powers. 2. board shakers. With Galactus creating two countdown tiles every turn, you're going to have lots of tiles you want to clear, so anything that can take out a large number of tiles on the board is useful (Hulk green, R+G green, Juggernaut green) Characters with AP denial might help, but may be too slow. She-Hulk's green might help, but it'd be down to luck whether it wiped his black AP pool. Edited by jamesh, Oct 10 2015, 11:15 AM.

And now some of the intermediate matches are getting stupidly difficult too. Level 395 Gorgon at the end of a survival match where the first round goons were building up red AP? He was one-shotting my characters with Debilitating Slash. |

Worst boss ever, you cannot beat him if you get a shit board. We need to start recruiting people because we just cannot compete in these type of events. |

Just knocked the last bit of Galactus's health down for round 3 (and got 40 Iso as a prize). I wonder how different round 4 is? I haven't had much luck with the tokens from this event (either the anniversary ones or Galactus Hungers ones). Other than a 3* Daken that I didn't need, they've all been 2* covers. On the bright side, I've got 3 Devil Dinosaur covers coming up this week in the daily rewards. |

I agree. 4 of us playing in these events, we're not even denting them for the higher rewards. Can we find more people to join us? |

Just by joining their forums and advertising there. I recruited 4 star Mr Fantastic with an Anniversary token which was a welcome surprise. |

They tweaked the odds for the anniversary tokens so they have higher odds of pulling Devil Dinosaur, 3* or 4* characters: https://d3go.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=33800 I should hopefully get the 10-pack some time during the the third tournament of the anniversary, so hopefully I'll get some DD covers. Prior to the change of the odds, I had managed to get two 3* covers, neither of which I needed (Daken and Hulk), with the rest being 2* covers. If I'd known they'd make this change, I would have saved them up. It also sounds like they'll tweak the second run of Galactus to be a bit less crazy. Towards the end of the last run, it felt like I was taking more health off Galactus from beating the minion rounds than the fights against Galactus himself. It also seemed weird to design the event such that testing out new strategies that fail essentially lost you points. Oh well, at least I've got some nice covers coming up in the daily login rewards: it shows 3 Devil Dino covers starting tomorrow, and then another Invisible Woman a few days after. |
