Since we're closing in on 20 hours (EST) for Heart of Darkness, I thought I would start this thread since I didn't see one over here. Credit to Malcrof for the suggestion. If you have solid info on the event, please post here! I know IceX posted in general discussion the event will run approximately 3.8 days with 24 hour events. I also saw that OBW, DD, and XFW will be essentials (based on Oscorp: Heroic PVE). Anyone else with details? Thanks!

    Here is IceX's post from yesterday:

    Re: Dev please tell us how HEART OF DARKNESS will run

    by IceIX » Tue Nov 24, 2015 9:58 pm

    We've brought it into a 3.8 day (first time shard start to last time shard end) run, so really, 3 days for an even 24/24/24 instead of a doubled mid sub. Other than that, it runs just the same as any other standard story event.

    I was thinking the same thing... looked at 67K and 3 days and wondered how that would happen without Survival Nodes.

    Nope, it's because tomorrow is a Holiday, you might be off Friday, and Saturday sooo that means we're home all day grinding right? Right. icon_eek.gif

    One red DD is the last 3* cover I need to have them all optimal. I just can't seem to get it.

    Can any early joiners shed some light on the event yet?

    Here to confirm there are survival nodes. The second one gives an event token just like enemy of the state does. The only non-goon enemy in the first sub is hood and he doesn't show up in the survival nodes. Everything else is just fighting maggia and hand goons.

    Thanks! Any Kitsu to worry about?

    how many survival nodes in sub 1? In some EoTS subs with multiple survival nodes, you could easily spend 4-5 hours grinding. icon_e_confused.gif

    A total of three with one being the daredevil essential.

    There are 3 Survival nodes.

    1 is essential with Daredevil
    1 is in the easy part et 1 in the hard part.

    Nothing as long as EoTS in this 1st sub !

    The Ghost Rider event seems a bit skewed. 67k seems awfully high for a 3 day event. Typically it's 11-12k per day to get legendary in a pve event.

    Here's to hoping that the next few rounds have some 6k wave nodes....otherwise this is gonna be a pretty big Thanksgiving kick in the nuts.

    I'm liking the sound of this! My only critism of EoTS is that it takes 7 days to do, otherwise its my favourite event. a 3 day version of that sounds perfect!

    Remember last run of Enemy of the State? People thought it would be impossible to get the legendary halfway through the event, but thanks to insane points in the last two subs it was... fairly manageable.

    It's a new event. They could put nodes worth 100,000 if they want. Points are completely arbitrary. Until I see an event where people aren't hitting the legendary 2/3 of the way through, I'm going to assume nothing will be different.
