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.
- Torpedo: Projectile damage from any source is greatly increased
- Heavyweight: Enemy stun meters build at an increased rate.
- Turmoil: Significantly increased presence of Riotbots.
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.
Modifiers are game changers! Check out some pro-tips from our team that will help you prepare for this week’s challenges!
- 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.
- 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.
This week’s Marketplace spread features new outfits like Iron Man’s Legendary “Ray Gun”, Black Widow’s Rare “Crimson Scythe”, and Kate’s Epic “Ready AIM Fire”. You can also find new Nameplates and Emotes from Thor, Iron Man, and Kate.
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.
