    I have unlocked Agent 13 and need nine daggers to get Captain America Falcon and then hopefully that quest starts.

    is it worth it to upgrade the facilities to Level 3, to defeat the Hydra Level 4 agents? I know I need the pieces for Crossbones that way, but from what I can tell it will take three recruits/prototypes per Level 4 agent.

    Is this event better than the Guardians of the Galaxy event?

    It's at least as good as. I like it better because there's more content.

    For Crossbones, how do you get the field communicator and field gear?

    You have to get them by defeating level 4 Hydra agents.

    It's worth it. It takes 5 hits from a level 2 recruit/prototype to take out a level 4 Hydra. But if they are at level 3 it takes 3 hits. I tried that with my level 2 recruits to get the field communicator started, figuring I'd just need four hits from them (since two level 1 recruits could take out a level 2 Hydra) but it didn't work out that way.

    But it doesn't look like you get an increase in documents/daggers, which annoys me. You still get 8 of either, but now it takes an additional recruit/prototype.

    I prefer to upgrade Black Panther and Spider-Man than get Crossbones, to be honest.

    I've only gotten 11 of the 20 masks for Black Panther's upgrade, and after upgrading my recruits to level 3 finally, I just need to get four more daggers for his upgrade. Having to use less prototypes/recruits to take out one hydra agent helps to collect those. Though I still need a lot of vibranium.

    I went ahead and started the upgrade for Iron Man's facility (the prototypes).

    EDIT: I get it now. it takes 1 level 3 prototype to defeat 1 level 3 hydra agent. so that should make things go a little quicker.

    :lol:

    I do like how the Hydra you attack, if you don't finish them off because you ran out of prototypes/recruits, they have a health bar floating above them so they are easy to find when you can attack them again.

    Here's where I am with things:

    Crossbones - I have 33/145 tokens. One arm wrestling match is going on right now, one is in the queue, and the third one will be ready to go in 2 hours.

    I'm at 17/20 Black Panther habits, so I will upgrade him to Level 3 later today. Once you do that, you can upgrade your prototypes/recruits to Level 4, and then you can take out Level 4 Hydra agents with 2 hits. That's when I'll start going after the other two items needed for Crossbones. I have 5+ days left on his timer so I should be OK there.

    Or maybe not... you have to have 3 field gears for one facility and 3 communicators for the other in order to upgrade, plus 100 daggers or documents. Crossbones is looking like a longshot now.

    Edit: maybe not. Level 4 prototypes/recruits can take out level 4 agents with one hit. That's a huge help.

    Yeah the chest gets you a lot.

    I ended up spending two crystals to get Black panther upgraded. I had only needed two masks. Amazing how if I sped up the drop rate for it, I would have had to pay over 30 crystals both times. Now I just need prototypes/recruits to hurry up getting ready so I can send them to fight.

    I am chugging along.

    Crossbones - 99/145 tokens, 4/15 field gear, 1/15 communicators. 3d14h left to go. Should be a piece of cake.

    Iron Robots - Level 4. Recruits - Level 4 being processed.

    Will be able to level up Agent 13 to Level 2 tomorrow.

    I'm slightly ahead of that:

    Crossbones - 110/145 tokens, 16/15 field gear, 8/15 communicators. But then I only have 2d 13h on his timer.

    My iron robots have the upgrade to level 4 going on right now, just a little over 7h left... :roll:

    And I need 49 more daggers before I can upgrade the recruits. At least I have enough field gear that I can send the robots to battle level 3 hydra to get daggers and ignore the level 4 hydra for now.

    The Wakandan embassy and Spider-Man also need the field communicators and gear to upgrade them, that's another thing to work on. I hope I can upgrade my characters all the way before the event ends. It'll be a long time before I ever have enough coins to upgrade some of the GOtG characters.
