Modok's Lab Heroic is harder then BotGs Bounty Heroic... WHY?

in General Discussion
So as the title states Heroic in MODOK's lab is much harder then Heroic in the Battle of the Gods Event. Why is this?

Just sucks as I am still fairly new and could just barely do the Heroic on BotGs near the end... but there is no way I can do Heroic in the new MODOK's Lab Special Quest.

Just sucks as now I will not get those 4* shards I so desperately need.

    Rewards are miles better and can be had more often.

    You don't have to play it though.

    I enjoyed it.

    I am just saying the Heroic Lab is just slightly too hard IMO. Just the Lab though.

    I agree rewards are AWESOME! Loving the event except this one issue for me.

    It’s content aimed at end game players. Something we have been asking for for a while now. Nice to see these additions to the contest.

    What? You guys have Master and now even a special "Uncollected" diff... are you saying that is not enough? Heroic should be harder too?

    Or did you not understand what I was saying?

    I am very happy they have Master and now Uncollected for you guys... but please do not start trying to change the easier parts that are for newer players like me. The fact that the MODOK Lab Special Quest is almost twice as hard as the BotGs one is just not right IMO. I will miss out on all those 4* shards that I could get last event... just is not consistent.

    Reroll with the randomizer if you think the buffs on the opponent are too difficult to overcome

    No it is actually their overall rating is much higher then Heroic BotGs Special Event Quest (Bounty)... about twice as high in some cases and there are many more to defeat this time around. That is the issue for me and where I am at in the game. I mean the second fight is a 7,000+ rated Iron Fist... that is not even the boss. My best char is 2,400 rated... lol :D When it is one 6-7,000 rated as the boss after a 5,000 rated or so I can do it (like the BotGs Heroic Bounty)... but not this.

    Just sucks is all as I was getting a few 4* shards from the last event but not this one sadly.

    Well I know part of it is I am not that good yet :D Also you mean Lab and not Hotel right?

    I accidentally backed out after seeing the rating on the champs but I used my ticket so I cannot try again until later. I am just not good enough yet to consistently take on champs rated over twice as high as my best.

    I am just wondering why it is that much harder Heroic for Heroic then the Bounties in the last one.

    yeah modok's lab, not the event quest. part of it is prob the nodes. make sure to read each node and what it does before each fight

    Okay just wanted to be sure ;)

    Will do!

    Also not complaining about it... it is just the increase seemed steep compared to the BotGs Bounties and wanted to understand why they would do that.

    As for the event overall I love it! Just sad at the prospect of not being able to consistently do Heroic Lab as I have seven 4*s so far and really need to build my roster.

    It's the nodes mate if too hard randomize the bounty was easier due to u can choose which noded path to go and fight 1 this time u fight 5 and have different buffs either randomize or fight better

    Get lost. Or get bent. Whichever you prefer. Or both if you want. I am very generous when jokingly telling people off ;):D

    Ah that makes sense. The rewards are much better this time and we could chose path last time.
    I should be able to do it easier by the end of the event when I level a few more of my 4*s.

    practice makes perfect, u know , i can easily do heroic difficulty but eventhough i could 100 percent master in normal quests i found these master quests too hard as my top vchmap is a rank 3 5 star

    I haven't tried Heroic MODOK's Hotel yet... but it looks not too bad (but must ramp up I assume).

    Just was talking about Heroic Lab vs the Heroic Bounty from last event and how this one is a pretty big rise in difficulty when comparing them. But as someone pointed out the rewards and setup are different so that explains it.

    And I am fairly good at Parry but need to work on Dexterity and not being so aggressive and getting caught.

    Yeah still farily new. I am pretty good a Parry now and starting to get a few Dexterity's off. I really need to get better at Dex and learn to not be so aggressive as I get caught a lot still.

    To be fair I never see myself getting good enough to play at levels I see on YouTube though :D

    You have a good point but there are less fights I kind of think one champ per defender that's double your rating is a good but tough challenge, yeah learn the nodes and spin if you get thorns or other tough ones

    Also take into account that the new lab costs 0 energy to run. It's designed to be hard. Do your best. It's a month long so you have time to get used to it and get stronger.
