my characters on my phone aren't strong enough to win any bouts in that hulk thingy yet. do I need to win one to get a hulk? :(

mh, Monday, 23 December 2013 15:53 (twelve years ago)

You have to beat the mission "A New Ally" on the main Hulk set; the enemies are level 20 each. You got 4 and a half days to grind a team that's worthy - DO IT

Nhex, Monday, 23 December 2013 16:37 (twelve years ago)

Agreed. If you noticed my many exhortations about the weakness of my roster, you might be pleased to know how easy it was to get the Hulk cover if you have the right strategy. (Though TBH what I'd ~really~ like is a Shulkie cover.)

Matt Groening's Cousin (Leee), Monday, 23 December 2013 18:20 (twelve years ago)

lol got a Hulk and a Punisher in quick succession after beating "A New Ally"

SHAUN (DJP), Monday, 23 December 2013 18:40 (twelve years ago)

Any strats for that final Juggernaut mission? Brutal.

Nhex, Monday, 23 December 2013 18:52 (twelve years ago)

got two Puns from the 3 star tourney, so now I've Pun at 1-2-0, l28. can see him being a mainstay eventually

still rocking through Hulk missions with my now l70 Wolvie, but sheesh, Ragnarok is an awful enemy

- Points per mission have a rubber banding effect depending on your overall placement (ignoring brackets). This means that if your score is lower than the average for the position that you're in, your missions will be worth more compared to others in that same position. IE, if Bracket Alpha's 1st place has 750 points and Bracket Zeta has 500, Zeta's 1st will gain more points from missions to equalize brackets. This will filter down to lower ratings as well, since naturally in that case, 50th would necessarily be lower in Zeta compared to Alpha. This has the effect of allowing brackets to push higher as a group to achieve the further out rewards.
Ok, wha?

yeah, i HATE boosted Ragnarok

Nhex, Monday, 23 December 2013 19:02 (twelve years ago)

huh, re. brackets, that just makes it even sweeter to end up in a shitty bracket, no? or do you GET more points for beating opponents for higher scores? (supposing we're talking about PvP & not e.g. Hulk missions)

Euler, Monday, 23 December 2013 19:08 (twelve years ago)

Sorry, Hulk missions

Nhex, Monday, 23 December 2013 19:41 (twelve years ago)

Weird, they just added extra stages to Greenland and Canada.

Nhex, Monday, 23 December 2013 19:45 (twelve years ago)

Amazon too

Nhex, Monday, 23 December 2013 19:45 (twelve years ago)

oh, ok

I'm bummed that I've stopped getting points in the Canada missions, even while I'm watching my ranking still slipping down

Euler, Monday, 23 December 2013 19:46 (twelve years ago)

xp

Euler, Monday, 23 December 2013 19:46 (twelve years ago)

it's annoying in that way, but also good in that you're rewarded for sitting around and not playing for a bit. for our health, i mean

Nhex, Monday, 23 December 2013 20:14 (twelve years ago)

LOL I think they screwed up huge on the new mission in the new Greenland mission, "Our Big Hitters". It's supposed to be vs. LV 85 Juggernaut + LV 85 Ragnarok, but instead they're lvl 1 and Lvl 15 ;). Got 1400 pts for it...

Nhex, Monday, 23 December 2013 20:55 (twelve years ago)

..and after two wins, it dropped down to 280pts. Huh. Maybe this this is how it's supposed to work?

Nhex, Monday, 23 December 2013 20:57 (twelve years ago)

ditto & jumped up to top 25 in Hulk tourney overall as a result

Euler, Monday, 23 December 2013 22:10 (twelve years ago)

Euler, Tuesday, 24 December 2013 00:22 (twelve years ago)

i completely agree btw.
you should level your daken up for real tho.

Strangers look on with a discernible, barely contained ‘wow’. (forksclovetofu), Tuesday, 24 December 2013 01:20 (twelve years ago)

working on it! this thread convinced me

jfc with this; who has 100 health packs?

Strangers look on with a discernible, barely contained ‘wow’. (forksclovetofu), Tuesday, 24 December 2013 03:14 (twelve years ago)

i can imagine having that if you did a completely fresh account and NEVER used a health pack while doing all the prologue missions and all the recent tourneys, but jeez, why would you??

Nhex, Tuesday, 24 December 2013 03:33 (twelve years ago)

Nothing cures an addiction quite like getting wiped out in back to back games!

Trying to get the 3-cover C Storm, but there's an hour left, I'm sick and sleep-deprived and the number of people attacking me is so relentless that I think I'm going to cut my losses and just hope that I don't sink to low.

Matt Groening is MY Cousin (Leee), Thursday, 26 December 2013 05:58 (twelve years ago)

I'm sick of these high level Ragnarok's laying waste to me in the Hulk levels.

Jeff, Thursday, 26 December 2013 16:52 (twelve years ago)

he is a sour bastard. my l84 wolvie though eats him up 95% of the time because if Raggie gets his red attack then I'll be sure to get green the next turn, and my feral claws stack madness, and I can heal his red attack in one turn. the other 5% though he gets some ridic chain and there's no hope: from 3000+ hp to 0 in one turn.

once I get a Raggie up to 5-5 then him + wolvie will be unstoppable

Euler, Thursday, 26 December 2013 17:02 (twelve years ago)

i've been experimenting with thor 85 / wolvie 68 / magnow 42 or wolvie 68 / modhawk 36 modstorm 50 as a good mix. Can't wait till i can get wolverine up to a level where he takes damage on red/yellow before thor. is that an actual thing?

Strangers look on with a discernible, barely contained ‘wow’. (forksclovetofu), Thursday, 26 December 2013 17:16 (twelve years ago)

just checked max, i guess not.

Strangers look on with a discernible, barely contained ‘wow’. (forksclovetofu), Thursday, 26 December 2013 17:18 (twelve years ago)

not at max thor but my wolvie's ahead of thor on red + yellow (thor at l65?)

Euler, Thursday, 26 December 2013 17:18 (twelve years ago)

but yeah, maybe I shouldn't max thor. in the hulk tourney I could have soloed with wolvie; I've been using thor + the good cap'n also but except for the occasional yellow hit my thor's been silent

Euler, Thursday, 26 December 2013 17:20 (twelve years ago)

With the Hulk tourney buff, Wolverine always hits Red/Yellow before Thor; I keep Thor around for his specials, he's a must for taking down Ragnarok quickly

Nhex, Thursday, 26 December 2013 17:22 (twelve years ago)

When Daken is available to use, my main Hulk tourney team is 85 Thor / 73 Wolverine (and rising) / 53 Daken. I swap him out for another tank or assist, like Iron Man 35, 44 Hawkeye Modern, or 76 Cap.

Nhex, Thursday, 26 December 2013 17:27 (twelve years ago)

we're playing the same way nhex, but i'm finding that daken's green match buff is kind of a pain when you level up wolvie as high as we have him? like i'd rather save the red for the +100 per hit than +16

Strangers look on with a discernible, barely contained ‘wow’. (forksclovetofu), Thursday, 26 December 2013 17:43 (twelve years ago)

I don't really conserve the Red strike tiles - I always match them, but having those extra dmg + wolvie's extra dmg definitely helps over the course of the battle, since (purely guessing here) at least 2 out of 3 turns you won't be able to match Red so they're just sitting there passively. Two Red matches, burn 'em and use Mjolnir's Might. Plus, Daken's has healing ability and is an easy sacrifice play for those sniper shots, since he's not a huge loss if he goes down.

What I do love is that both Daken and Wolvie only take 10 minutes to resurrect! Most characters take closer to an hour. Pop them in a prologue mission and heal all that back, who needs health packs.

Nhex, Thursday, 26 December 2013 17:47 (twelve years ago)

lol level 247 Rag on the latest Hulk stage.

Jeff, Thursday, 26 December 2013 18:16 (twelve years ago)

yeah, that's a no.

Strangers look on with a discernible, barely contained ‘wow’. (forksclovetofu), Thursday, 26 December 2013 18:54 (twelve years ago)

looked at the number, didn't even try it

Nhex, Thursday, 26 December 2013 19:10 (twelve years ago)

I started playing this. ugh

polyphonic, Thursday, 26 December 2013 20:29 (twelve years ago)

Somehow from my nonstop playing yesterday plus getting big pun in the tournament I jumped up to like 250th in the hulk tourney... Might have to start tanking for 3x hulk, I don't have any xwolv covers and I can't imagine ill get any more any time soon...

Video Games, Thursday, 26 December 2013 20:31 (twelve years ago)

No need to tank anymore, now you get the next tier of rewards too, so you get X-Force Wolvie + 3x Hulk cards in spots 1-300. I'm constantly fighting to stay in that Top 300 tier.

Nhex, Thursday, 26 December 2013 20:32 (twelve years ago)

Oh wow I fell from 250 to past 1500 just from not looking for an hour or two anyway D:

Video Games, Thursday, 26 December 2013 21:58 (twelve years ago)

#2 in my earths mightiest. But like a day left. I wish I could just end it now.

Jeff, Thursday, 26 December 2013 22:24 (twelve years ago)

i was at #1 on the last mightiest campaign last night with twenty minutes to go; fell to like 34 while i was actively speed fighting. the ranking system is simply unfair; the game beats you down at every opportunity.

that said, i recently got a purple spidey, my first jim lee magneto and a spare punisher so i can't complain too much

Strangers look on with a discernible, barely contained ‘wow’. (forksclovetofu), Thursday, 26 December 2013 23:22 (twelve years ago)

Is there a cloud save thing for this? Been playing on my ipad but not my phone. Don't wanna start from scratch

polyphonic, Friday, 27 December 2013 00:03 (twelve years ago)

There isn't. I tried playing a new game on my ipad but I just can't bear to go back to such low levels.

Jeff, Friday, 27 December 2013 00:14 (twelve years ago)

I thought if you logged in via your FB account, you could? (I don't have FB so dunno.)

Why the hell am I playing this rn, tap tap tap.
