Event Rewards Update

Patch 2.4 refreshes our recurring events, focusing on updating the rewards, creating more consistent mission objectives, and giving players a wider variety of objectives to complete during the events. As many of these events have been out for a while, we knew it was time to standardize the objective structure and give them consistent rewards so that players have an easier path to obtaining the gear they want.

Starting in 2.4, events will be categorized by three types: Daily Mission Chains, Minor Mission Chains, and Meta Reward Mission Chains. Let’s break each of them down:

  • Minor Mission Chains – offer opportunities to increase Power Level on a per-Hero basis; can be Hero-specific.
  • Daily Mission Chains – offer no Power Level improvement but add a repeatable gear reward for the duration of the event.
  • Meta Reward Mission Chains – large, once per event rotation Mission Chains with roster-wide rewards.

Rewards identified as (Superior) are items that can drop at power levels higher than 140, previously only available from OLT and Raid content!

Here’s a breakdown of what the rewards look like for each event, by their reward category:

Here’s a look at all of the other fixes included in Patch 2.4.

REASSEMBLE CAMPAIGN & AVENGERS INITIATIVE

  • Fixed an issue preventing enemy waves from spawning in Vault missions.
  • In efforts to make completing the “Protocol: Faction” mission chain easier, we made Faction Missions more accessible by increasing the number of times they are randomly chosen in Quick Match.
  • Fixed an issue in the Discordant Sound Raid where Klaw’s cannon slam ability would cause giant rocks to appear on screen, unintentionally obscuring players’ views. This ability no longer spawns the giant rocks.
  • Fixed an issue causing players to accidentally skip certain campaign missions when loading into campaign missions from Avengers Initiative.
  • Fixed an issue allowing players to push the Assault Adaptoid into unreachable level geometry during the “Hawkeyes” mission. The Assault Adaptoid can no longer be pushed out of bounds by certain player abilities.
  • Fixed an issue in the “Blood Feud” Mission causing the camera to clip below the terrain during Black Panther’s drop-in intro.

MULTIPLAYER & MATCHMAKING

  • Fixed an issue in multiplayer preventing some players from seeing statuses applied to enemies by other players.

ART & ANIMATION

  • Fixed an issue causing Thor’s cape to clip through his arm when wearing the “Thor: The Dark World” Outfit.
  • Fixed a texture issue with Hawkeye’s “Time Runs Out” Outfit.
  • Fixed an issue in “Bad Blood” mission causing a distracting amount of flaring from certain light sources.
  • Fixed an issue where a flat image appears in the environment background in War for Wakanda’s “The Way it Began” mission. The image should no longer appear in the background.
  • Fixed an issue where Black Widow’s “Veil of Shadows” ability would not cloak Mjolnir when the ability affects Thor. The ability now cloaks all of Thor.
  • Fixed an issue with Kate Bishop’s “Fed Up” emote causing the bow to act a bit wonky. The Emote should animate as intended now.

USER INTERFACE

  • Fixed an issue causing overlapping text to appear on certain UI elements during gameplay.
  • Updated the UI during solo play so that the “Enable Matchmaking” option does not display.
  • Updated subtitles in Shuri sections of the Discordant Sound Raid.
  • Updated subtitles for Black Panther in certain sections of the Discordant Sound Raid.
  • Fixed an issue where Nameplates were not displaying on the Hero Roster or Character Selection Screen when a player would join a Strike Team. Nameplates should now display on all appropriate screens.

COMBAT

  • Fixed an issue causing Summoning Major Artifacts to block other players in the party from using their own Summoning Major Artifacts at the same time.
  • Fixed an issue where Hawkeye’s “Recovery Arrow” fails to activate if a player is in the middle of a parry animation.
  • Fixed an issue where enemy attacks that hit Thor (while his Warrior’s Fury buff is active) drain players’ Intrinsic Meter when he should be invincible – when the skill has just activated or during a takedown.

GEAR, CHALLENGES, & REWARDS

  • Removed Spider-Man perk, “Heavyweight Impulse” from dropping on Spider-man’s gear.
  • Increased range that the Sonic Conduit perk affects team mates to 100m
  • Added new strings for Kate Bishop and Ms. Marvel Perks that were identical to help clarify the perks intent 
    • An example is the new name for Polymorph Final Breaker (increasing combo finisher attack damage while Polymorphed) which was Polymorph Breaker (which would imply all polymorph damage)
  • Fixed an issue where Black Panthers Ranged gear showed melee icons (and
    vice versa)
  • Priority missions should now state they award the Apex Power set
  • Activating Brooklyn Brawler or Power Surge no longer increases the damage from corrupted Vibranium.

KNOWN ISSUES

  • Activating your Heroic Assault ability while you have a JARVIS barrier active will remove the barrier and replace it with a placeholder buff. This buff adds assault heroic damage and is a prototype that made it into the build. This will be fixed in the next patch.
