    i figured people don't care because A) Juggernaut heroic was the event that caused us to get reinforcements BECAUSE it was so bad

    B) only 3 days

    C) prizes are meh

    D) 7 day event after this

    E) just had hardcore event

    Maybe they should rename this the Kingpin heroic so far not seen much of Juggs but Kingpin is doing a good job standing in with his speedy dark avenger style self accelerating moves.

    Shocking how quick he can get of Maggia pawns. Just as well OBW is available.

    The node where he is fed yellow by Muscle is retched.

    oh not a big deal, i don't think not having the formal event thread was really causing anyone heartache, but once you get that cartoon juggernaut's voice in your head it seems to be all you can think about... icon_e_smile.gif

    i get the ambivalence, but I'm totally appreciating that right now. even though getting DP was pretty hellish, i seem to be reinvigorated to (hopefully) finish my DD build. i've never made him a priority and only recently am really starting to see his benefits so i'm jazzed to get him a bit beefier.

    Sad that red is top 10 cover. I currently own a 5/5/1 DD, and don't particularly feel like grinding this event optimally for one more red cover. Hopefully the next event will have red DD progression.

    With cyclops, DD is a much more reliable character. Its pretty interesting, actually....

    I don't think so. Just personal awards.

    Does anyone know who was boosted in the first sub? I forgot to make a note of it. Edit: Nevermind, found them on raisins archived stream!

    only reason im playing is Its right after a 4 star so less people will have 4 star meaning easier to get top 50 to get free coins (even though i got close to 9k lol)

    Finished the second sub on my stream - although the last node is annoying, you've got the tools to deal with Kingpin if necessary(Vision 2*BW 3*Carol)

    Just so we have a thread in the usual format. Probably should've copied/pasted a 3* reward thread, instead of the 4* where I had to change a lot more. Props to jffdougan for doing this for each PVE.

    If you're playing juggs event and have KK, cyclops, and juggs himself; run them together. KK purple nets green + cyclops yellow nets red + juggs green and red are super cheap + KK heals with every power = easy run through of the entire event.

    just run
    KK cy and wolvie

    KK heals cCY pushes red for wolvie and his claw does over 5k of damage

    Great. With KK cy and juggs (boosts and all and depending on covers of course) you can hit for over 10k per turn once you get going. And finish the hardest node in the event with full health. It might not suit your play style but is worth giving a shot of you have all three.

    I have beaten the last node in ddq daily with this combo (ending at full health) and juggs is the only one I have fully covered.

    Having a mediocre Cyclops (2/3/3), mediocre BP (no black), poor SG (no green), poor QS (does he ever get good anyway?), poor DD (only 4 covers) and only 1 green on KK makes the last sub quite a chore. I got my 25 HP progression and I think I'm done. I do have 4 yellow on KK so I don't need the final progression that badly.

    I'd forgotten how annoying that Juggs / Lieutenant / Lieutenant node is. Yellow heal tiles spamming all over the place.

    I have been enjoying this event as a good source for ISO and HP since no one is really playing it. This is one of the few Heroics where I have the playable characters maxxed and they sync well with one another. For half the nodes I'm running OBW/CStorm/QS, and the other half is KK/Marvel/BP

    I can see how for people without KK this is nearly impossible. Juggernaut should never have AP generating Goons with him.
