Does anybody know if eternity splinters have a set drop rate? Like if I play for X amount of hours I should get X amount of splinters?

I'm sitting on a ton of boosts from fortune cards and might finally get Cap to purple and hopefully yellow this weekend. Still waiting for a Sacred White Gorilla Necklace, just doesn't want to drop.

Thanks for triggering my PTSD

Did they change the threshold for blitz rewards? It’s 6k for the Yondu blitz and I swear the rest were 10.

I like Spider-Man, but he dies so quickly that I'm going to replace him on my hero team as soon as I get someone else who deals suitable damage. He's already out in every mode that allows villains.

My biggest surprise has been finding out that the dudes he summons are actually really good and do a lot of damage and/or healing, on top of tanking a couple of hits for you.

Got Quake unlocked last night, just gotta get her up to snuff to join the rest of my good crew. How's punisher fare as poo poo goes? I love Big Pun but he's feeling like he's slipping behind quick.

I've got him around 3500 power and I mostly keep him in my second group or put him in when the other team has a lot of tanks and I want to do AoE damage. I think he's going to get totally replaced by Quake for me since she does AoE and is more generally useful with the mass slow on her normal attack.

So I get the "Don't focus on developing all heroes at once" sentiment, but I assume I still want at least 5 heroes and 5 villains at least max level to complete the campaigns, correct? I take this to mean don't spend the upgrade items to upgrade every single hero you have because you'll run out of money/resources very fast.

You only need to do the campaigns to unlock chars or nodes you want to farm, IMO

I need her ability to strip buffs and debuffs if facing a Cap or Cage, it works v well

Also it's hilarious to see a 19000ish team in the lower 4k in arena because it's basically a free win and you know they're also Xboxsplosion build, but the AI can't run that properly and it's easy to roll

Ah, I just use Quake for that if it’s really important or just kill the offending enemy, works ok

Wait, does it matter which path you take? I've just been joining wherever and doing the damage I can before dying, but I thought there was an overall % of damage done and didn't think it mattered where I did mine. How's that work?

Each node has to be defeated to bring the raid percentage up. You can't change directions outside of a few choices on each path, so if you want to 100% a raid people have to make sure that each path is covered so that each node is hit.

Rocket and Drax also benefit from Gamora’s buff if you’re running her. I think my current plan, since I have all of these characters, is Drax/Gamora/Quake/Yondu/currently Wolverine but soon to be replaced with like daredevil maybe?

I'm pleased with the new Thor Blitz. Looks like a much better reward structure than the BP event.

They seem to have two structures for events that award shards: this one, which was also in the Yondu and Iron Fist events, and the BP style, which was that and Black Widow.

They should all be like this, so everyone can actually work toward unlocking whatever hero, IMO, but I guess you get more whales with the other structure.

What is everyone's opinion on Thanos? I have him unlocked, but under geared and under leveled because I'm broke. So I haven't been able to really use him yet. A SWGOH friend of mine is pretty underwhelmed, likening him to General Grevious in that game.

He doesn't seem great.

Now that my A-team is all Gear level 7-8 and star level 4, I think it's time to finally focus on a B-team. The grind to improve people past that level for the A-team is really boring anyway.

edit: Thanos has changed up my play style a bit. Now I tend to leave a Yondu/Kingpin/whoever around so I can get a few more bodies to hit with his AoE heal instead of just burning them down immediately

So, the easiest way to do raids from what I've seen high up guilds do is assign a strike team and raid number to each person in the guild. The stronger players get the tougher routes, the weaker players get weaker routes with more options for assistance from others. That way you raid the same path for each raid every day. You log in, do your route, and then you're off. You don't need to worry about who needs help where or people taking the wrong path. You just assign a path to each person, make sure every is following the same strat, and you go about your business. A lot of the lower guilds I've seen aren't assigning people. They are just having people pick their own paths.

Let's make this game more of a chore, sounds awesome

What if you just need those extra shards to get up to 6 or 7 stars? How else would you ever get them?

You two need to join discord. Particularly, the one called SA Professional Gamers because it’s the marvel discord and it’s where all the Hebrons talk (amongst 15 other game channels and community talk etc). It’s a large place.

Also, I kick after 3-4 days inactivity and don’t read game chat because discord is life. I shoot and ask questions later.

Thanks dawgs.

You can boot me (trips) for someone more active, I don’t have the time i did at launch
