The Danger Room

Intro

The Danger Room is a game mode that’s different from all others, and it’s somewhat like a roguelike experience. It will be active approximately once monthly, allowing you to earn good rewards. The main goal is to defeat the final boss on the highest difficulty. All of your runs will be different and with unique enemy combinations, strategic choices, and boosts.

Node types

Standard Combat – Earn Run Score points and Combat and Danger Tokens by defeating enemies. You also get a selection of Combat Mods to choose from.

Elite Combat – Fight stronger opponents and earn more Run Score points, Danger Tokens, and a more powerful Combat Mod.

Heal Nodes – Used to heal your squad with Danger Room Health Packs (only available during the run).

Shop Nodes – Spend Combat Tokens for Combat Mods or recruiting new characters. Combat Tokens reset at the beginning of a new run.

Care Package – You can choose another character from your roster, rent a character, or choose one of three Combat Mods. Look out for rare Combat Mods.

Your Squad

From your roster, you need to select two characters. Characters are limited to Vigilante, Thunderbolt, and Accursed teams, with the addition of Iron Patriot, Red Guardian, Yelena Belova, Blade, Elsa Bloodstone, and Ghost Rider. Characters can also be rented with rent tokens, and in this run of The Danger Room, rented characters can be very useful.

Use all free mods at the beginning of every run, and the most important is More Accursed, as your main character for clearing will be Blade who becomes Accursed with that buff. Pairing Blade with the Accursed characters will work perfectly, and before you have enough Danger Tokens to buy some important buffs start with Juggernaut beside Blade.

You will still be able to use Vigilantes as buffs like Monkey Baragge are still available, but this run of The Danger Room is more focused on The Accursed.

Mods and difficulty

There are ten difficulty levels available, with higher ones giving higher-end run scores. Now in this run of The Danger Room, only your highest run score counts for milestones. There are twelve milestones, and you need to reach milestone 8 to finish all three weekly quests in the Command Center.

After every battle, you will earn Combat Tokens, which can be used in the shop to either add a new character from your rooster to the team or buy combat mods. Also after every combat you will get to choose one of three combat mods. Here are some of the best combat mods to make your runs easy:

• Entry Wound – Each ally will apply Bleed to all enemies, and enemies cannot gain Immunity
• Exploit Weakness – For each enemy with bleed, allies gain 20% damage, very powerful with Entry Wound.
• Energizing Strike – After killing an enemy generate 1 Ability energy for self and adjacent allies.
• Speeding Ticket – Enemies are unable to fill their speed bar with their abilities.
• Carnage Boon – When an enemy falls to 25% HP, fill the speed bar by 20% for yourself and all allies.
• Deal with the Devil – Best combat mod at the moment, At the start of combat Accursed characters get 6 Deathproof, 6 Counter, and 6 Offence Up and enemies cannot gain Empowered which is very important against enemies like Mephisto or Apocalypse.
• Basic Momentum – Whenever an ally attacks with a basic attack all your allies get 50% more damage on basics, and buff stacks until 500% more damage is reached. But whenever any ally doesn’t use a basic, the buff resets. It persists between combats.
• Mysterio’s Boon – On ally basic clone that ally once per combat
• Monument to Bagra-Ghul – On kill Accursed allies gain Speed Up and Offense Up
• Emma Frost’s Boon- Apply -10% speed to enemies.
• Black Panther’s Boon – On kill, Speed Bar fills by a 100%

Those buffs are best for clearing, other than that look for buffs that apply defense down to enemies, or offense up to you, since that is a direct boost to your damage. Bleed buffs are very strong, as well as those that give you immunity at the beginning of the fight.  The point is to have a combination of buffs so that enemies can’t even play. Speed buffs and The Accursed buffs are the most important.

During your runs, by winning in Elite Combat you will earn Danger Tokens. They are needed for Combat Mods used at the beginning of the run to make you stronger but not affect your final score. Danger Tokens carry over between runs but not between The Danger Room events. From the list of Combat Mods bought with Danger Tokens, you should focus on direct buffs to your stats, like Stats 1, 2, and 3 (upgrade Damage, Armour, Resistance, and Focus). Agile is a buff you can use early for 150 tokens and helps a lot. It simply gives you 10% more Speed, but that is very crucial. Then Accursed Energu buff for 300 tokens, giving Accursed allies 1 Energy on kill. And then with the Cosmic Ghost Rider’s Boon and Crucible buffs, which are quite expensive at 1500 tokens each, you are strong enough to do a run with only rented characters. That means, that even beginners can farm Danger Tokens, and achieve the highest milestones if they wish.

All in all, this run of The Danger Room event is different from the one before and for the better. No more playing diff 1 ten times to get all milestones, now you need to work for your rewards. Rentable characters can be useful now, and that is a big improvementefore and for the better. No more playing diff 1 ten times to get all milestones, now you need to work for your rewards. Rentable characters can acctualy be usefull now, and that is a big improvement.
