  • Torpedo: Projectile damage from any source is greatly increased.    

Minimum Power Level 100 Challenge, +5 Power Level Offset

  • Collider: Particle damage from players is increased.  
  • Pressure: No automatic recovery of Willpower when critically injured.    

MEGA HIVE  

The Mega Hive is a single-player chain of eight missions that tests your team’s might. Each week you’ll have a shot at completing the Mega Hive mission chain. When you defeat all eight missions, the Mega Hive mission chain is removed from the War Table until the next weekly refresh, when you can run it again with new modifiers.  

This week’s modifiers include:    

  • Resurgence: Enemy health regenerates after a short delay.  
  • Famine: Enemies do not drop Regen Packs when defeated.  
  • Oasis: Regen Packs have increased Willpower benefit.  
  • Scourge: Significantly increased presence of Prime Synthoids.    

Weekly Rewards: As you progress through the Mega Hive, rewards start as basic gear, resources, and small amounts of cosmetic currency. The more missions you survive, the more resource drops increase. As you near the final mission, you’ll see better gear and artifacts awarded more often, as well as increased chances for patterns/nameplates. When you complete all eight Mega Hive missions you’ll be rewarded with exclusive goodies reserved for this gauntlet, including a significant amount of high-quality resources  

MODIFIER PRO-TIPS  

Modifiers are game changers! Check out some pro-tips from our team that will help you prepare for this week’s challenges!    

  • Collider: Equip any gear that provides additional Particle damage or increases the rate at which the Particle status meter builds to really heat things up when Collider is active.  
  • Resurgence: Quickly eliminating a single foe as opposed to bouncing around between multiple enemies or trying to control groups with area of effect damage will help make surviving Resurgence easier.  
  • Famine: Focusing on Takedowns and careful usage of the regenerative nanite containers are key to survivability when Famine is active.  
  • Helix: When Helix is active Hulk becomes a force to be reckoned with. Leverage his intrinsic Rage ability and any of his gamma-infused attacks to dominate the battlefield. Don’t like playing Hulk? Make sure to equip gear that inflicts Gamma damage and has high Intensity to help trigger the Gamma status effect.    

Fresh on the market! This week features several new items such as Kate’s Legendary “Chin Up” Emote, Hulk’s Epic “Wrestler” Outfit, and a few Uncommon Nameplates from Kate and Captain America.  

The Marketplace is a place for us to feature purchasable cosmetics in the form of Outfits, Emotes, Takedowns, and Nameplates. The Marketplace’s Uncommon, Rare, Epic, and Legendary items rotate weekly, and can be purchased with Credits.
