The random factor is insulting to us. A slap right in the mouth. You can make it to the end and get stuck because of RNG, 6 unbeatable buffs, and be out of reroll charges up against Sentinel with 90% armor, +200% power gain, stun immunity, chaos, Biohazard, add your favorite buff, and the any units you didn't to get there is wasted. And you are now very upset with the game.
Thats why you should look at all the opponents before you start using items
Randomness is the problem I had one earlier where 4 had biohazard and a few stun immune( I can only parry can’t intercept) that had Emma frost as boss... I just didn’t try but I’m interested to see the even see split
When they did modoks lab, I felt like there were a significant number of “garbage” buffs, as a percentage of the total... it feels like this time they doubled the total number of buffs, but all the new ones are strong, making all the fights harder... additionally, the random 1-6 buffs... that number doesn’t seem to reroll (I.e. if it starts with 6 buffs, the reroll will still be 6, just a different 6)... I feel like that’s not how it was described... but as strong as most of the buffs are, if you are going after a stronger difficulty, an enemy with 6 is basically a death sentence
It's meh, I am only doing the Heroic Lab as the master one can be too much of a **** that I don't feel like bothering. The rewards haven't been that great even though they advertise some that are better but again it's RNG as to whether you get them or not. It's not the worst event (stark/merc missions) but it is definitely not great and I strongly hope they do not recycle Modok Labs again in the future.
If you reroll and leave the occult Lab screen, when you go back in, the nodes will have reset back to the original..... wasting your rerolls/resources.
I love these labs. These quests are the first supplemental quest that I can think of that actually offered a good challenge.
Trials of the King/Mad Titan, Assassin Assignments, Merc Missions, Gwenpool GGTM, and many others could all be steamrolled and you barely had to look at the screen. The epic fights actually require some thought, planning, and skill. For the first time, I'm waiting for my best champs to be unlocked from AW/AQ so I can do these.
And for rewards, they're offering the best resources in the game. 5* shards, t2a fragments, t5b fragments, and 5* sig stones. I'd be happy if they kept these going every month.
The labs are too random. No guaranteed items and it requires a crapton of luck to get good nodes.
You're guaranteed to get a lab crystal unless I'm mistaken. On epic difficulty, that's a minimum of 250 5* shards twice a day (I'm assuming the other items in the crystal are valued higher...they are to me). And you can do it twice a day.
Although I can’t manage epic, I do appreciate them making content that fairly good players can’t smash through without some skill. If you can’t manage the difficulty, don’t feel entitled to the same rewards as some of the better players in the game. I do like the Trials best, but don’t we all?
Having my symbioid at rank 5. Makes it fun to crush whoever they put. I just reroll a few times and if I remember corectly. That’s exactly why we have the symbioid.
Honestly, for a high end solo player this is the kind of event I like. Unlike the rifts, there is no obligation to complete time wasting heroic and master to get entry shards, they are much harder than the trials which I find challenging and fun, but at the same time offer high end rewards. I get that there are elements of bs, but that's part of the game, just like the Colossus I've pulled three times in a row...
the concept is great.
the fact there is a hard difficulty is great.
but the RNG is just tooo much.
1. U need luck in your opponents. Could be korg, emma, imiw, or could be kk, ip, falcon etc....
2. You need luck in the amount of node buffs. Could be 2 could be 6
3. you need luck in what the nodes are. Could be life transfer & dash vunerability, could be power gain +200%, cornered, prove yourself, maso, buffet, counter tactics
and then
4. you need luck in your crystal. Could be 250 5* shards, could be 2500 5* shards.
5. you can reroll and reroll and reroll. sometimes you reroll the 8 times and get the same nightmarish nodes every time.
essentailly you could breeze through and use 0 items and get half a 5* every day.....
amazing rewards for the effort
or you could need to use a revive or two each time like me and then only get 250 5* shards from each crystal.
total BS rewards not worth the stress, headache, time and certainly not worth items.
reduce the RNG....
make it always hard as hell and give the top rewards only.
or make it lower end and give the lower rewards.
but doing it tough and getting **** is not fun.
esp while others can do it easy and get great stuff.
not fair and not balanced.
I just find it painful to do these anymore. I like to be rewarded for effort in a game and not finish with a feeling of disgust. And for those saying I love the challenge well to each their own. My challenge come in the form of making it through a match without any of the glitches that get ignored to be fixed..... evade, block, champs standing there taking hits.

I see you are a man of culture as well. Lol oh damn i really miss those one heck of a side quest
