That SHIELD team is a bear ! And it seems like most of the time, the bear gets you before you get the bear. I think I either go to Fury, or the one that Taunts in the back, Black Window if not stealth, or Quake, and then try and work thru the Operatives. Also, once I have a node where I want it - I play with it. This allows the remaining opponents to heal up, so I can rack up more damage for the rankings Additionally, this allows me to save the strong attacks for the next node, which I'm sure is common practice. Especially, if you plan for that SHIELD node Also, I may bail on an attack if I inflict enough damage and realize my current team is too weak to fight on and will only allow a team to heal up. If you quit, and heal your team up - you go in fresh against a knocked down team.

I saw those scores as well and was like daaaaaaam hehe. His score on that node was higher because he used a second team.

Wasn't that the MDK motto in CoH, that it's not about winning with overwhelming power, but winning using your brain. Maxing my rankings by maxing the damage I can inflict, sort of like torture instead of instant kill. Although, overwhelming power is super sweet.

110 shards closer to 7* Thanos
I don't remember which lane I use to run on the Deadpool raids and if we were able to hit the 30% on El Scorcho.
I was able to make progress on node 3 Dark Dimension, instead of running all my teams, I just used Gamora/Daredevil/Kingpin/Quake/Black Widow once per day, Widow Speed up, Quake slow on Medic, Bosses orders from Kingpin giving Gamora/DD offense up and using their level 3 powers on SHIELD Op. Once she died, did the same thing on the medic, now I just have to beat a team of regening characters
I am ready for the Juggy offers and I have a little over 2 million gold to use on him, but only 27/130 on Mystique to get her to 5 guess some node recharges are in the future for me

My DD fun is currently at 2.66 million to go on node #2. Having 2 Mordos to deal with at the same time suuuuucks. Cap finally hit 7* but I need another 400,000 gold to level him up lol. I just spent like 340,000 gold getting CB to level 69. His power level is now 34,850 and once I can afford to pay for the * upgrade on cap, he will be well over 35,000. I had just gotten the Kingpin and Cap offers so I am unlikely to get any of the Thanos offers Gotta slow down somewhere hehe. This is my new and improved A team. Crossbones - 34,850 6/6/6/4 T12 Level 69 Captain America - 33,340 7/6/6/4 T12 Level 68 Rocket - 31,700 6/6/6/4 T12 Level 68 Kingpin - 31,548 6/6/6/4 T12 Level 68 Quake - 31,180 6/6/6/4 T11 Level 68 I would like to swap Quake for Doctor Strange in the future sometime. I would like his buff flipping ability. I would like to make a solid push for Magneto this first run if possible. I have Mystique at 16,656 T10 Level 5 abilities 59/80. Need more shards for her though Thankfully I no longer have to spend on Cap recharges so those can immediately go to her. I know dAZ has been in a while but he is at 6 days inactive now and HNKN seems to be participating only enough to stay off the radar. With that 2 million gold you should be able to get Juggernaut to like level 30 based on the stupid gold requirements hehe.

Very sad that there has been no update notification yet making me think I should just use the gold to level up my main team to 68. Its funny that our main teams have no real synergy or team bonuses and I see people cry about they cant play the character they like because of the Fury/SHIELD or Defenders teams and what seems like a push for more team based gameplay, they just need to play who they like and work on them and have fun.

The push for team game play kind of sucks because that is not how people have been working on their characters since the start imo. We have been leveling up a main team to carry us through campaigns and the early release of raids. Now we have to try to work on all of these teams at nearly the same time. The amount of effort required to make that happen is astronomical. My A team gets destroyed by similar power shield and defender teams. It is not even funny how bad the fight goes. The defender team wipes out half my team almost before I even get to go and I am sitting there going just happened hehe. Finally got cap to 7* he is now at 36,295. I did not think he would jump almost 3,000 power. I should be able to get Iron Man this time around as well. I just need 1 BW offer to get her to 5* or to get another minion to 5*. I think Cap and Quake being 7* should help to carry through to

I will be going for 6 star Iron Man this time, even though I do not use Iron Man for anything else. My team will be: Cap/Quake/Widow/Shield Security & Trooper or medic Fury/SHIELD unless I am way team power over them, I usually will lose no matter what I try to do. I do slightly better vs. Defenders team depending on the level and make up, usually if they have Punisher with them, I take out him first since his assist to DD attack is powerful, then I just chip away at whoever is lowest. Damn that's a high ass Cap power is he at 68 or 69?

Cap is still at 68. I have not made any of the gear toward 13 yet and his abilities are 7/6/6/4.

Those be some well powered Caps, I think I'm around 19,000 with both accounts and no 7* yet. Thinking probably need to start saving gold for that.
Yeah, the Defender/Nick fury synergies are crazy. But the Defender one does get crazy at higher levels. In Blitzs and lower levels, not a problem until Team C, B, and A.
Silly system maintenance during free NRG time. I guess we get an e-mail with NRG saying sorry for the wait.

Juggernaut event requires Mystic characters, pretty sure I am decent there, but cant check on the main account still On the plus side, we should be getting a very large cache of goodies for the downtime, missed out on 2 energy refills, double SHIELD drops, Ms. Marvel event and other stuff I cant think of. Glad they went with the classic Magneto outfit, looks good in game.

Check this out. I think my game glitched when I leveled Cap to 69. All I did was level him to 69 and got 1400 power for it. Also, my WHOLE account jumped by like 30,000 power. Look at STP. I am at 173k now when I was just at 166k. I have reported it since I don't want a ban for an exploit somehow lol. But hopefully I get to keep it Ugh $100 for the Juggernaut shards. I bought them then got 139 for opening the orbs so he is at 69/130 now. If all of the characters for the Brotherhood cost this much...…

Cable and Deadpool don't count since they are X-Force if you want Magneto, you're going to have to "whale" out I bought both Jugg offers and had terrible luck on the orbs, only 89 shards 28/130 leveled him up to 40 and into gear tier 4, 4/4/4/2 Was able to 3 star the rest of the Ms. Marvel nodes except the last one, but did get 2 stars on it, hopefully, I will be able to get at least 2 orbs before the event ends. Down to 4 Wolverine, an Iron Fist and Luke Cage on node 3 of Dark Dimension. The worst part of the update is Wolverine screams being fixed, its so annoying in here since you fight 4 of him

lol they show as being mutant only 89 shards??? Holy hell that is horrible RNG. I also just have the last node for Ms Marvel to finish but I think its a 1 day only event for her so I am unlikely to finish it. I still have about 1.8 mil to go on the second DD node

The needed tag isn't mutant, its X-Men or Brotherhood, if you click on the event, it will show you what characters you have that you can use, they do not show up.
Yea I thought we would get Ms. Marvel energy for the event with the recharges, but we are not, so I got 2 orbs out of it, I was close from last event.

Juggernaut is a beast!!! Especially running 2 of them I finished 3* on all using this team. Yondu 23,147 Thanos 22,302 Mordo 17,551 Scarlet Witch 17,185 Juggernaut about 12,600 Brotherhood is going to be bad ass!

I just have to do the last node, I ran out of energy, did you refresh yours?
I don't know for sure, but since the update, I think blitz orbs no longer give you shards for characters you have at 7 stars, I have opened at least 5 and have no had any of them drop. I know it is a small sample size, but previously I got them what felt like every other orb during my massive openings.
Saved squads is such a great feature, I only use 5 slots, but it saves so much time, that was a great addition.

I passed on Jug offers, as can't make an excuse to spend the money.
Do you think some of those boosts are from Stark enhancements? I don't follow the numbers as closely as you both do, so can't tell if it's a system change effect that effected everyone.
Just a heads up, depending on things - my activity may change during Thanksgiving Day week, as I plan to be traveling the entire week starting this Friday night until Sunday the 25th.
When I have enough gold, I'll be able to get my first 7* character - Quake, who I've been pumping Arena credits into for as long as I can remember. Used the 1 of the 2 recent offers to jump up, but Spectral Pasta is 269/300, and Spectral Eye 304/300 (but don't have the gold to rank up).

There was a bug with the Stark Tech, where it only showed 5% of the bonus on the total, although they say you got the full bonus on the numbers, it just didn't reflect, so this is the correction to that.

I did refresh my energy in order to finish. I also had to do 1 or 2 of them a couple times changing the team a little bit. I started using Nobu instead of Juggernaut since he was higher power level. Juggernaut ended up being better. I had not really been paying attention to what the blitz orbs were giving but I will keep an eye on it to see what I get. I will also be out Thanksgiving week while I am in San Diego. I am gone Friday through the following Saturday. 112/130 for Juggernaut now I think I am only going to work on the Brotherhood for the time being. Must have Magneto hehe.

I know it is a small sample size, but previously I got them what felt like every other orb during my massive openings. I have been watching and not a single CB or Gamora has dropped for me since you mentioned this. I kind of don't mind since it allows me to get more of the characters I have not finished yet.
