<p>Agent with Generalist Mech Armor, Psych Protection E-iso and Tactical Tendencies. Gear would have to be the Cube, although I haven't used it in the last several seasons. Coulsons Revenge, which was my first major gold purchase and has been on my PVP-team for a loooong time. GotG badge in conjunction with GotG Gamora (see hereunder) for never-miss of mostly Coulsons Revenge. A Magic-warding item (whatsitcalled) and another interchangeable item... In early tournaments I recall the Sinister Sceptre which helped me to a Vibra finish in my first ever PVP-tournament, only to see Angel and all items dealt to everyone. True, I was only vibra, but I still felt cheated...
</p><p>As team it would have to be GotG Gamora and P-5 Emma. I've used them for probably ten PVP-seasons in which I achieved my only Ada and mostly Vibra finishes,,, Doom and Mental Anguish were killers back then!

<p>The wise thing to do (always) is to save CP for when the SpecOps comes out, and then buy the required deploy heroes to get the SO hero fro free... And since this SO is relatively cheap (180CP this time, previous SO's went up to over 400CP for the deploy heroes), thats probably a smart move!

<p>Well, any hero applying exhausted would also work... Blood Foil might come in handy as well to counter the hemorraging.

</p><p>In the first run I took X23 first because of the task completion, and in the second run I got stuck with 2 mini-bosses and no regulars, so I chose Death Locket. I've been able to two-bird the boss in both instances, although three birding would be very hard indeed! </p>

<p>To be honest, I'm actually enjoying this SO. I guess we're all pretty used to the idea of PVE being relatively (to very) easy to the point where we're complaining when we have a fight that we might actually lose a few times. True, you might not two-star a mission in one go (I didn't), but the joy of three birding M1 is much higher!
</p><p>
</p><p>For new players it might be very frustrating though. For once the SO is very cheap (180CP), but the boss fights without e/a-iso might be next to impossible... </p>

<p>My P5 Emma and Guardian Gamora team has no problem with HAIF whatsoever, since I dont really rely on counters or follow-ups. Together with Despair, Iron Fist is easily disposed of. Also, with Psychic and Stealth I'm not running into too much trouble with protector teams.
</p><p>
</p><p>Kuurth is definitely a problem since she's immune to psych and stun, so Emma cant hit her at all... Especially if she's magically warded as well, both Doom and Mental Anguish wont work. I'm not so afraid of her debuffs though, but still, I can only use brute force to get rid of her (CoulsonRevenge or a couple of Gamora L9's) </p><p>
</p><p>Further problems: </p><p>- Rulk/Pesty (annoying, but usually not too difficult, since they can not remove Mental Anguish before triggering) </p><p>- Chanty/Pesty (same thing) </p><p>- BK is a hugh PITA nowadays </p><p>- Guardian Groot/Gamora teams are annoying too, because of immunity to fatal and thorns/bleeds </p><p>- Mostly annoying: Elite E-iso's.... </p>

<p>Dont know how it'll affect each other. I only know that you can't protect while Phased or Ethereal...

</p><p>In the 'old days', all it took was a Sinister Sceptre and a protect item... Good times! </p>

<p>I used Ares for Despair for a couple of ages, nowadays Gamora is the weapon of choice...

<p>Those characters are why I'll always have a teammember to apply Despair!

<p>25 Turns??? Holy crap....even if that team would be very successful I wouldnt wanna run it...It would take so much time just to finish your 5 daily's!
</p><p>I rarely get to turn 4 or even 3 nowadays...
</p><p>
</p><p>Anyway, they could have slotted the Gracious a-iso on one or more buff action to recover stamina? </p>

<p>On the flip side, it'd let you replace the Psychic Amplifier with something like the Quantum Jumper to make those extra turns back. IF should restore more stamina than the PsyAmp and with his new a-iso can stat boost alongside, though Strengthened isn't a given-- but then, nothing involving the PsyAmp is a given anymore either.
</p><p>I'd give it a shot but I just threw my Iron Fist into training for level 14. D:

</p><p>I'm using the Warsplitter Axe for the Strenghtened, as PsychAmp instead puts down Potential Unleashed if successful. The Gen.Armor QA should give IM sufficient stamina to not need more, so you could indeed replace PsychAmp with something else... And an improbability Field could even add all those factors again... </p><p>
</p><p>Happy to hear your experiences with IF though, although I (still) dont own HAIF. </p>

<p>Actually, I haven't encountered PO4 a lot in PVP although I've been playing for some 9 months now. How realiable is the AI in activating PO4?

<p>Obviously, running the complete set plus PO4 wouldn't work, but which item would you sacrifice? Gaunt Caress is assume?

<p>Your CP-chances on the roulette wont change, but if you complete all deploys and all fights, you have an additional fight appear after you regular boss fight. This is against the Epic boss of that mission, and the CP values on the roulette on this fight are 3, 5 and 10 instead of the regular 1,3 and 5.
</p><p>
</p><p>Each chapter in Season 1 (except chapter 1) has one of these Epic boss missions. </p>
