Fight Randomized Opponents and Buffs in Sinister Labs!

Summoners!

Mister Sinister is continuing his work with genetic modification, and has begun performing experiments on the Champions of the Contest in an attempt to enhance their abilities and further his research!

Log in daily to take on the Sinister Labs Event Quest, and receive items from the Sinister Labs Event Login Calendar including Randomizers and brand new “Sense Boosts” to enhance your own Champions' Abilities (only usable in the Sinister Labs),

Special Solo Objectives are also available this month, and will target the use of Mutant Champions in unique and challenging ways to earn additional Sense Boosts, Randomizers and Gold!

What are Sinister Labs?

Sinister Labs are short quests that consist of 2 paths, each with 6 fights on them. Sounds straightforward? Not exactly… Mr Sinister’s Experimentation has left these encounters unpredictable!

All Fights in these quests will feature a number of Randomized Buffs! Some of these Buffs are more potent on certain Champions, and some may even benefit the Summoner, but don’t be fooled into thinking you can start the fight without reading what you’ll be up against!

Really don’t like the Buffs you’re encountering? You can use a Randomizer to reset them, but that doesn’t guarantee that all of them will be different, or any easier!

This quest uses Entry Limits, meaning Summoners can only enter a 10 times each day across all Difficulties. There are 4 difficulties that can be done daily, each with 2 paths. There is no point in doing any difficulty of the Quest more than twice. You will only receive Completion and Exploration rewards once.

Heighten your Senses!

For the first time ever, we’re adding a new dimension to Lab quests, Senses! Senses are mode specific Boosts that can only be used in Sinister Labs. You can only activate these Boosts from the Quest Map Screen. There are 6 Boosts that Summoners may activate:

Sense: Tactile - When inflicted with any Shock, Coldsnap, Poison or Bleed effect, your Champion builds immunity to the effect over 9 seconds. This time is reduced to 3 seconds while playing as a Mutant.

Sense: Auditory - Incoming Special Attacks have a 20% chance to trigger an Evasion Passive, granting a 100% chance to Evade all incoming attacks for the duration of the Special Attack. The chance to trigger this Passive is increased to 50% while playing as a Mutant.

Sense: Olfactory - All attacks have a 20% chance to deal True Damage, ignoring all of the Opponent's Armor. This chance increases to 50% while playing as a Mutant.

Sense: Visual - While playing as a Mutant, attacks cannot Miss.

Sense: Gustatory - When the Opponent is inflicted with a damaging Debuff, your Champion gains a Regeneration Buff, granting 5% of their missing health over 4 seconds.

Sense: Rage - When playing as a Mutant, while at or below 20% max health, gain a Fury Passive granting 300% increased Base Attack.

Rewards:

Starting Soon!

Sinister Labs will be available on August 7th at 10am PDT, and runs until September 4th! You must update to the newest version of the game before being able to participate.

Thank God this is over

Not going to lie, I did every Epic successfully without spending any units and only rarely spending potions, and I actually think individual days were fun, but thirty of them in a row was probably fifteen too many.

Difficulty is relative and I'm sure some people were just face-rolling through it, but it is clear the event was supposed to be high difficulty for most players, and that high difficulty plus that many fights plus that many days in a row is probably too many.

Difficult, long (duration), and grindy. I think most events should be at most two out of three. I think if the maps had only one path instead of two, that would have been noticeably less taxing. I see the point of having multiple runs (in effect sixty paths over the month) - it means you can't just spend your way past the difficulty. But it was just a little too much.

Thank god it’s over. I do did every epic except a couple days I was on vacation and didn’t used any units / items. I keep buying randomizes in advance if I get rough day - over spent there as had a bunch in overflow to expire.

It should have been once a week with shorter stuff other days like Trials

Labs are still going for 12 more hours but the boosts aren't working. I've been using them on my last week of runs since I have so many, but honestly they don't help much.

In the past it's been one path, not two and even with the RNG the rewards were better. They were still decent if you did them every day but it just felt like way too much grind for a side quest. I quit them after about a week. I don't understand why they made them longer for lower rewards.
