    Oh, my bad. I meant the charges. Heh.

    I never have credits because I'm constantly upgrading Gamora and Spidey/Crossbones.

    For Blitz we get 100 charge every day from daily rewards. So make sure to use at least that much every day, even if you don't love the rewards for that specific blitz.

    310 shard to unlock Iron Man, wonder if you'll need to finish all the tiers to get it done

    I think I can maybe do the 4 star version of it by the time it ends, but I think that's it

    That's 5 stars, so tier 5 should do it, if the beta stuff we heard is still true.

    I've got 5 SHIELD dudes.
    And a total of 11 stars between them.

    So, yeah, not getting Iron Man any time soon unless I unleash the power of money.

    I've been kinda prepping because I'd heard this was coming, so I've got a three star team with a few people at 4

    if I hustle I might be able to do the 3-star version of this but anything higher than that ain't happening. Oh well

    If I really go nuts I might be able to have a four star team ready to go. Cap and Quake are already five stars each, and Hawkeye and the Mooks (TM) are three stars currently.

    I imagine we're probably going to get a max number of goes in the event. I'm betting this goes more like the Merc event than the Deadpool or Thanos one. In that case I don't think it will actually be possible to get to the higher tiers even if you had the characters for it, like the Merc event.
    This one seems like more of a regularly scheduled event than a special one.
    The lack of a corresponding raid for the event is also pushing me that way.

    The Thanos and Deadpool events were probably sponsored events by Marvel, which is why they were longer and had more widespread changes. I don't expect most events to look like those.

    It'll be similar to the merc event, but I doubt you'll be able to run them multiple times for more rewards. Galaxy of Heroes does these events too, where you have to have a themed team to do them, and I don't believe there's a limit to how many tiers you can get through other than if you meet the requirements. I could be wrong, I never met the requirements in those, so I didn't really see them?

    The difference between this and the Deadpool/Thanos events is that you get a set number of shards, and...that's it. It'll almost definitely recur, probably in a rotation with other faction themed events

    The Merc event had a hard limit on wins in the whole event, which didn't change or refill each day. Like 3 or 5 goes for the entire event, and since you had to clear earlier stages to go to later ones, the last stages were literally impossible to unlock regardless of what characters you had.
    That's why I think these are meant to be recurring, unlike the one-off big events like Deadpool or Thanos. They do the event, wait a few months, then do the event again.

    oh, it'll absolutely recur, but I think the hard limit for wins on the merc event was more down to the part where you could get rewards if you replayed tiers. I don't think the Iron Man event will have those same limits because I don't think you'll be able to run the tiers multiple times, so the limit would likely just be, "hey, do you meat the reqs for this?"

    I'd also expect it to be open a little longer than the two day window the merc event was open for

    Having done loads of panic farming for various legendary characters over in SWGoH its quite nice to just sit this one out.
    Quake and Hawkeye are in my arena team and i’m working on unlocking cap, so another 2 shield mooks will probably end up getting upgraded sooner or later. Probably later.

    I did not know that 60 was the Max level. That would explain why I am no longer getting the daily where I level up a character.

    Just FYI if you want the login bonus shards each day, you have to make sure to close out of the app and launch it again. If it's just running in the background it wont trigger the daily shard drop.

    I'm out of energy but my next level in Nexus is a fight against just ultimus but he's 10k more power than me.

    So we'll see how this goes!

    I barely cleared the two before it, but apparently I three starred the Cap node by accidentally hitting auto before changing a diaper. I'm sure it was suitably anticlimactic but I'll have to replay it later.

    The Cap one (5-9)? It's one of those fights that's built around getting to a 4th stage.

    It's also a huge pain in the ass to 3 star even if you know about the glitch. (If you finish the fight with only the operative alive you'll get 3 stars even though it says 1 star. Bring a bunch of tanks, rotate taunts, and hope that you get good rng.)

    My first time I one starred it, I left it alone for awhile and then failed my second time but when 4 of my squad were level 60 and everyone was tier 7 or higher gear it was fairly easy to go the 4 rounds without anyone dying.

    I've got a full team of 4-5 star characters with tier 9 gear at level 60, and so far only Drax can go two rounds of being hit in the face in this mission.

    It's going to get raised at some point. There's achievements for getting to level 65, and in the Nexus campaign, 7-X missions require you to be level 62 first, 8-X missions require lvl 66, and 9-X missions require lvl 68.

    If you're in Atlantic Social Entropy, be sure to hop in the raid. Even if you don't think you can clear any of the points you can still contribute damage and collect rewards.
