Dear Kabam would u mind explaining to me why you have made this weeks map5 harder than map6? I was running map6 for ages but my work life is crazy so have dropped down to a map5 bg. Sure my alliance has very high prestige but the path champs on map 5 is utter bs map6 was way way easier WTF

    Welcome to the life of SW week! Last month was so nice. Didn’t come up once. Sigh. Makes no sense why they’ve buffed map 5 (for SW week only thank god) when map 6 & 7 exist. 🤷‍♀️

    @Lifeswicked do you find that map 5 takes less time? I haven't run it in awhile but I feel like as long as people move in map 6 I don't actually spend more time playing.

    I found with map 5 that people got lazy and I waited around more for links to drop. We usually finish map 6 with 3 hours to spare. I find it a little hard to believe that map 5 is actually harder but like I said it's been awhile since I have run it so you may be right. Map 6 isn't hard in any case, and map 7 is too expensive lol.

    I can't say for sure, but I remember when they changed AQ, a lot of people were saying map 5 was harder. I run AQ 4 so idk, but that's what I got from the forums.

    Even AQ Map 4 looks difficult this week. Seeing champs being knocked down earlier and the defenders are tricky.

    Well I can confirm that map 6 is the same as it ever was.

    AI on map 5 is annoyingly passive. Once you get used to that (after day 1...) yiu havr day 2 and 3 like that too and then it shifts to aggressive again.

    Currently we have the same discussion in our alliance with map 5. So I can confirm that for map 5.

    Is this map with scarlet witch miniboss? It's not hard but it has more annoying newer defenders.
    I also didn't understand why only this one week received "update" when all other weeks with MS and Hyperion minibosses got only new minibosses

    Yet Kabam says the AI is tuned correctly. The paths aren't that bad, new champs and Symbiotes to fight, I just bring Venom to tear most of them up, except SW, she's a pain with her powergain and sometimes powergain x2 and regen like crazy. Luckily we have members who have heal block champs that can stomp her.

    Did map 6 first 2 days and did map 5 today. Only thing that’s more difficult about map 5 is the terrible AI which refuses to attack. Apart from that it’s easy node combinations

    If she power gains and regens you are getting hit. That's not a good idea to begin with.

    Dont know if this map5 is harder than map6 since we dont do 6. But having done map5 for long time, can say it is harder than previous. Actually thought it was just me. Even points from defeating enemies is higher. Any comments, kabam?

    Scarlet Witch's been a cakewalk so far this week compared to Hype and MS.

    Can SW nullify iceman's shield? For some reason her sp3 is dealing regular damage while his shield is up. The first time sp3 pummeled me to 7% then her buffs helped me regain health to over 30% then sp3 only dealt the 10% it was suppose to the first time. This is the second time its happened to me. Anyone else experiencing this?

    the AI in map 5 are absolutely tuned differently than any other content in the game in my opinion. Map 6 is MUCH easier and it makes no sense as to why they have just 1 version of AQ with the AI much more defensive and they tend to just walk at you without dashing. they also lead with their light attacks WAY more often in map 5

    Her L3 nullifies all positive buffs on the opponent.

    Nah SW is pretty easy. Hyp week is a pain because of those stupid Drones.
