The current "Gauntlet" PvE event is a tough one. I've completed 6 of the missions in the second set, and am having trouble with the fight against mohawk Storm, Ares and 3* Daken. It's not obvious which order to try to take them out, due to Ares' strong attacks, Daken creating strike tiles and Storm creating attack tiles. Unfortunately I'm locked out of using my classic Storm, whose blue power does almost 2000 damage to all enemies and stuns one enemy for four turns due to the level boost. Edit: I gave it another shot (and failed), and Storm seems to be the biggest problem. I was using Captain Marvel, Astonishing Woverine and Nick Fury. (who is not boosted). I'd laid down some trap tiles and was trying to goad the AI into setting them off. And then Storm used her hailstorm power, which replaced my traps with attack tiles without setting them off. I guess I'll try Storm -> Ares -> Daken next. Edited by jamesh, Dec 12 2014, 03:31 PM.

Daken is the only powered up character I had for the latest PvE event, so I've been experimenting with him a bit. He's got a healing ability that requires you to keep a certain number of blue tiles on the board, or it instead damages you. At the same time, you want to match blue tiles to use his most special move. The healing doesn't disappear at the end of the match too, so I've ended a number of matches where Daken has more health than he started with. I'm also kicking myself for getting rid of Marvel Now Magneto. While I didn't particularly like the countdowns associated with his red and blue specials, his purple apparently pairs up really well with e.g. Classic Storm. You can spend purple AP to generate blue tiles in chosen locations, so it essentially lets you use your purple AP to power blue special abilities. |

I've had to stop playing for now. It won't let me play without downloading an update and the update is too big for my remaining storage ![]() Sucks, especially as I have a spare 40gb or so sitting on the SD card! |

I managed to get Deadpool from a recruit token from the PvE. When you complete your first battle using him each day, you get Deadpool Points:![]() If you collect enough points, you can spend them to upgrade his purple "Whales" attack, apparently allowing you to kill the entire enemy team. |

I got him on both accounts. Too low of a level to be of use but fully upgraded he would be very powerful. |

Well, with 28000 Deadpool points (i.e. 10 days worth) he can kill the entire enemy team if you've got his purple ability. At a lower level, the other characters are likely to shield him from damage until you collect the 14 purple AP needed to pull it off. So he still has some use while at a lower level. In the current PvE, I've been growing to like the combo of Daken and Wolverine together. There are a number of things that make them work together quite well: * they cover all six colours together, so you don't end up with any weak colours. * You get lots of strike tiles: green matches cause Daken to create them, and Wolverine can use the green AP to create even more. * And the more strike tiles you get, the more powerful Daken's blue attack becomes. As bonuses, Wolverine also has a nice strong red attack, and they both have healing factor abilities that can help beat stronger teams (although Wolverine's one seems a lot less reliable). |

I only got 1 red and 1 black power for Deadpool. I noticed you played heaps of the current event, you would be in 1st place in my group (ends at 1am tonight). I am just trying to finish top 50 so I can get Elektra. |

I got Deadpool's purple cover from a PvE recruit token, and managed to score his red cover in the Loki PvP event. As for placement in the current PvE event, I'm currently sitting at #84 out of my group of 1000 so I doubt I'll get an Elektra. I guess you got lucky with the bracketing. |

I managed to sneak into 5th so I got all 3 covers for her. I am usually unlucky with the brackets, it was a nice change. (The top person only had 110k) |

Congratulations. I think I ended up at around #60, so ended up with a blue Daredevil cover. I also managed to get a red Sentry cover by completing the last mission of the event, but am short on roster slots again. The survival missions in the new event are indeed a challenge. It is a welcome change from them just having three over powered enemies when they want to make something difficult though. It does look like you don't need to complete every wave to progress through the event though (although you won't get all the rewards if you do this). |

These ninjas are starting to get annoying. The Kishu type (ones wearing a red helmet that covers their eyes) are a pain since they spam trap tiles all over the board that damage your entire team. They also have a move that creates some strong protect tiles (which luckily Ms Marvel can take out with her red). Finally, I ran into what looks like an actual bug in the current section of the PvE event: I was playing the final "Black Hole" mission, and managed to make it through all five waves only for more ninjas to arrive with a message saying "Wave 1 of 5". I got wiped out fairly quickly since I was already low on health and had used up most of my AP to clean up what I thought was the final wave. I was presented with the failure screen and didn't see anything about prizes. Back on the level select screen, I saw I'd received points for the win and it said the prizes for the level had been claimed although they obviously hadn't. Luckily I didn't miss out on them entirely, since they turned up when I completed another level. It's a bit frustrating having a level that only seems to end in your team getting wiped out, and I also wonder if there was any story programmed in for when you beat that level? |

I need to add Gamora on that list but have picked up both Colossus, Iron Man and Mystique from tokens since then. Will eventually pick up the others with daily resupplies (just not Gamora and Captain Marvel) - Currently at Day 255: Day 280 - Spiderman Day 295 - Wolverine Day 365 - Devil Dinosaur (also get his covers on Day 366 and 367 |
