Changes and Bug Fixes:

New PvP User Interface

• The Player vs Player section of MAA has been completely visually overhauled. We believe it makes for a tighter and more coherent experience, and it will lend itself better to the next major PvP update: Separate loadouts for Missions and PvP. Coming soon!
• Tasks can now be seen in the Player vs. Player section.

Class Changes

• Blasters attacking or attacked by a Bruiser now gain Focused Attacks, which allows their next attack to be a guaranteed crit and ignore defense
• Tacticians’ bonus turn is called Tactical Maneuvers
  • Tacticians will gain Tactical Maneuvers when attacking or attacked by Blasters
  • A visible status icon will appear when a Tactician gains a bonus turn from Tactical Maneuvers
  • After gaining a bonus turn from Tactical Maneuvers, Tacticians will gain Exhausted Options, indicating that they will not gain an additional bonus turn until the end of the round
• Scrappers, Infiltrators, Blasters, and Bruisers will gain their respective buffs when doing Area attacks that hit their favored class
• Class bonuses will not trigger on Quick Actions for any class.

Flight Deck Improvements

• The Flight Deck now has an option for sorting heroes!
  • By checking “Show heroes that need XP first,” the flight deck will place lower-level heroes that are not ready for training at the front of the list
  • The default setting is the current behavior, showing the highest-level heroes first
• Fixed an issue with the order heroes are displayed in the flight deck UI. The order of heroes should no longer change when you deploy an individual hero from your roster.

UI and Graphical Issues:

• Fixed an inconsistent experience in the UI upon entering the team management screen. When selecting the “Team Management” page from the mission select screen, any character that needs training will be selected as opposed to your agent.
• Corrected a task sorting issue with the optional side quests associated with Spec Ops. Side quests should no longer sort to the top of the task list above the Spec Op tasks.

Past PvP Rewards

For season 6, those users who finished the season with an ELO between 1617 and 1619 showed in the UI as if they qualified for the reward, but this was a rounding error for adamantium only. They will be awarded Fantomex if they don’t already have him.

For season 5, users from 1592-1603 (fb) or 1699 to 1732 (dest) will get X-23. 1244-1271 or 1268-1306 will get the tac armor key. 1045..1052 or 1051-1059 will receive Chakra strike. No rewards/compensation will be awarded if they are already in possession of those rewards (either in inventory or in danger room/pvp armory)

In all cases, the league they finished in will be updated to reflect the reward given.

Beta ISO Removal

We recently introduced a new type of Iso-8 to Marvel: Avengers Alliance called “Reactive Iso-8.” This new Iso-8 works similar to customized agent gear, in that it is always valuable for a player to obtain since the power is set based on the agent’s level. With this new addition the time has come for us to sunset the percentage based Iso-8 some of our beta players were able to purchase back in the beta event last year.

If you are a user who happens to own some of these older Iso-8s, we will be replacing them with the same sub-type of the newer “Reactive” Iso-8.

Listed below is the conversion from Beta Iso-8 to Reactive Iso-8:
