5 Days Left: Anyone Still Grinding Back Issues?

Back Issues are being removed on April 8, so you've got 5 days left. I say 'you' instead of 'we' because I’ve 100% explored all 8 on Variant and Classic, but honestly… with how outdated the rewards are now, I can’t see many people rushing to complete them unless it’s for nostalgia or units.

So I’m curious:

- Who here has actually 100% completed all Back Issues?
- And who’s planning to grind them out before they’re gone?

I completed all to 100% years years ago. It was a total different Mcoc back then and I won’t lie - those are f

Some, basically just for un-claimed Units. (it uses a lot of energy however)

(and was hoping to have done that 1* Hulk quest, but they changed that one easier so newer, or lazier, ppl can’t even experience the original level of that one before it leaves forever).

I have been grinding it for revives. Even bought the energy refill card earlier in the month to do so.

I have faith in the community to find a new source.

When one door closes another opens.

We do get alot free through daily quests and objectives, but it's always nice to have a backup.

I'm saving the rest of my energy for Solo Coliseum

Been 100% both modes for like a year plus now...just sad to see them go and no way to commemorate all the energy refills used to explore everything.

I've 100% variant and classic, and I'm still grinding them out for revives for Carina's (not that I'll be needing that many, but you never know). I'm currently at 87 20% revives and still going. I know that I'm going to need about 22 revives per attempt on for Ares as I just have to power through it as I can't get his timing

why that specific number? Not 21, not 23. Exactly 22.

It's how much I used on my last four runs when I fought Ares (first two runs were 41 and 35, the last four were all 21-23 revives as I was able to figure some things out better - I also didn't watch any guides or anything until tries 5 and 6, and that still didn't seem to help). But for all of the paths combined, I only used 17 total if my notes are correct.

Okay, but that’s when they were separate paths; might need more since it’s one LONG quest

True, But the post wasn't about that but about how I knew how many revise for Ares. And the 17 revives for the paths was to show that I wasn't a complete noob, just that I have difficulty with Ares.

Can someone give suggestions on which are the best ones to complete/explore for units?

My initial plan was to have at least 100 revives for one challenge (60 for paths and 40 for Ares) so my question is how much is too much? Rn I have 150 combined revives and 22 team revives. I recently ran some epoch paths for the first time with an average of 40 revives. 10 on paths and 30 for Ares. I should also mention that first fight of every lane was solo. I just restart it if it wasn't a solo but we won't have this here.
