URGENT MESSAGE FROM DA COSTA INTERNATIONAL
During a failed experiment at the labs of Da Costa International, Roberto da Costa, also known as SUNSPOT, lost a valuable asset. Unfortunately, that impressionable asset - the shape-shifting alien robot WARLOCK - was discovered by Deadpool. While the merc with a mouth’s hodge-podge of pop-culture references threatens to corrupt the mind of his new friend, Sunspot and his corporate rival Superior Iron Man are forced to work together to hunt down their little lost robot.
Can Sunspot prevent his competitors from harnessing Warlock’s tech for their own nefarious purposes? Can Deadpool stop Cable from destroying Warlock in order to prevent the spread of a Techno-Organic Virus? And what about Warlock? Doesn’t he get a say in his fate? Find out in X-MACHINA!
I, X-MAN
From beyond the stars, two new Champions make first contact with The Battlerealm!
Roberto da Costa, A.K.A. Sunspot, is a Brazilian mutant, former member of the New Mutants, and an ambitious businessman out to use his wealth and influence for the greater good of the world. By absorbing various forms of radiation and energy, Sunspot is able to bolster his physical strength and durability, as well as discharge concussive bursts of force.
Warlock is a Technarch, a techno-organic alien, hunted by his own people for his peaceful idealism. Despite his best efforts though, sometimes Warlock still has to make use of his shapeshifting abilities to defend himself, whether it means sprouting claws, or transforming his face into a shield. However, his most dangerous ability comes from the lethal Transmode Virus that all Technarchs can spread with just a touch...

@JosephPoerio both work either way.
What we did say is that we're exploring a lot of Balancing options for the Uncollected difficulty, including bringing it more in line with where Uncollected Players are, and looking into a possible further difficulty for players that are at Cavalier, but none of that is confirmed. We've also been adding a lot more end game content, like Variants, and Act 6 Chapters for those Players as well.
We're still looking into this, and one thing you'll find this month is that the difficulty has come down. We've chosen less punishing path and Boss Buffs.
Additionally, there are a lot more places in game that can contain rewards such as 5 and 6-Star Shards, including places like Sinister Labs.
One more like Act 6 difficulty with bigger rewards ?
Heroïc Quest + Master Quest + Uncollected Quest + "Cavalier Quest".... while that sounds great i fear we will not have enough energy to do all these in 1 month
However, please relay the message to your boss, on behalf of the whole MCOC community, that these rewards need to either be updated, OR a Cavalier difficulty needs to be added.
Also - the LAST thing we need is an EASIER uncollected difficulty. That's a slap in the face to all players done with act 6.
