    4* cover instead of an event token? Nice change.

    Had hoped for a 5*. Ah well, another 4* may be baby steps, but at least not a leap in the wrong direction.

    I'm on board. That extra featured character cover sold me; the rest is gravy.

    This is a pretty good change, but what about for Clearance Level 9 or 10?

    Brigby - as the poster of the PVE event threads, let me say Thank You! for how you laid out the changes here. It makes it much easier for me to keep the event threads accurate with the formatting / notes provided.

    Brigby,

    Just so that my slow mind understands the change, since I play at CL8, I'll be seeing a 4* cover back-to-back? Currently the 17th prize spot is the 4* prize. Will both 4* covers be the same character cover and color?

    An extra fixed 4* cover makes 7-day events WAY more appealing. Yay!

    In all seriousness though, I unfortunately don't have any information pertaining to a potential SCL 9 or 10 and its rewards.

    I'm glad the formatting was helpful! I'd say it was a combined effort between myself and Anthony from Demiurge. icon_e_biggrin.gif

    Edit: Looks like the Event Preview beat me to the punch. It is the same character as the 17th progression reward, but different colors.

    For example, tomorrow's Enemy of the State event would look like this:

    SCL 1 - 4
      Progression Reward 17: Steve Rogers (Captain America) Sentinel of Liberty [Yellow] Progression Reward 18: Steve Rogers (Captain America) Star Spangled Avenger [Red]

    SCL 5 & 6
      Progression Reward 17: Rocket & Groot (Most Wanted) Blammo! We Got Ya! [Green] Progression Reward 18: Rocket & Groot (Most Wanted) I Got A Plan [Blue]

    SCL 7 & 8
      Progression Reward 17: Gwenpool (Gwen Poole) 'SPLOITS! [Purple] Progression Reward 18: Gwenpool (Gwen Poole) Plot Armor [Black]

    Edit: Looks like 5 & 6 Progression Rewards changed a bit. Updated it to reflect current reward.

    The additional cover is nice, but lots of 4* character covers aren't going to be as valuable today as they were yesterday. Not too many people are going to be championing vaulted 4*s going forward, so a lot of those will just be 1000 ISO.

    Shows up as a pink and a black in my game, which is PHENOMENAL. And the 3* cover is different colors, too!

    This looks like a stealth change, since I think previously the 3* covers were always the same color.

    I super hope that's not a one-off.

    Hey, D3, these changes are great and all, but I really wanted a puppy! Where's my puppy? YOU OWE ME A PUPPY!!!!

    Great change, why not double the CP reward as well? Its twice as long as a regular event, why not double the CP?

    Its not like we'd get more than usual, just the same. Why not?

    You only get CP in sub rewards, which are already given out every day (and are doubled for 2-day subs). So not different than 3/4 day events.

    My game is showing that level 6 gets one of each of his three colors.

    Im talking about CP in the progression. You get 5 + 5 + 15 CP, no matter how long the event is.

    That doesnt make sense when an event requires 3 days of grinding whereas a 7 day event takes more effort but gives the same 25 CP total.

    What is the aversion to making gwenpool ' s green a progression reward. The second time she comes around as a progression award in a recent pve and still no green. The second cover is nice as I'll have at least one usable cover now...
