Elite Heroic Hive completing is one of the in-game achievements. This guide on How To Unlock Elite Heroic Hives In Marvel’s Avengers explains the challenging process involved in unlocking some of Marvel’s Avengers longest and most challenging multiplayer content.

During various Mission Chains within the multiplayer component of Marvel’s Avengers, you will encounter Hive missions. These are floors of enemies and challenges that provide some of the longer content in the multiplayer parts of the game. The Elite Heroic Hive is the pinnacle of the multiplayer content, so unlocking it isn’t easy.

How To Unlock Elite Heroic Hives In Marvel’s Avengers

Unlocking Elite Heroic Hives is no picnic. It requires completing the entirety of the single player campaign as well as a ton of different objectives within the multiplayer aspect of the game. When you’re in-game open the objectives tab in the main menu and navigate to Missions. There’s also assignments and challenges but they are not directly related to the progression of the ongoing story.

You need to pay special attention to the Avengers Initiative mission chain. This is the primary mission chain that follows on from the story. It has 9 different steps, with each step providing different objectives and challenges you must complete. The Elite Heroic Hive is in the very last stage of the chain, Step 9: Avengers Forever. This tasks you with completing the Last Avenger Standing mission chain, which is where Elite Heroic Hives are unlocked.

Getting to Step 9 of the Avengers Initiative includes completing every HARM Room challenge for each character, every Iconic Character chain, all of the faction mission chains. It’s basically the ultimate challenge of the multiplayer component, so you need to complete nearly all other multiplayer content to unlock it. Follow the Avengers Initiative Mission Chain until Step 9 to unlock Elite Heroic Hives.

Marvel’s Avengers – Darkhold & Ring Of Nibelung Guide

Blaine Smith — Fri, 04 Sep 2020 10:50:20 +0000

It takes a lot of work to get these rare artifacts, but are they worth it? This Marvel’s Avengers – Darkhold & Ring Of Nibelung Guide lists the abilities of both the Darkhold and Ring of Nibelung artifacts, rewards for completing the most challenging content in Marvel’s Avengers multiplayer.

Marvel’s Avengers multiplayer component is supported by structured missions under the Objectives tab. These missions provide some direction in regards to content that is available whilst also providing additional rewards for completing chains of missions. The pinnacle of these chains, available right near the end of all multiplayer content, are the Ring of Nibelung and Darkhold artifact rewards.

Ring Of Nibelung

Out of the two, the Ring of Nibelung is my personal favorite. The Bountiful and Surplus benefits are nice but with such small percentages, it’s not something you’ll see often, and not something you can rely on. However, the Cornucopia perk is great.

It is easily strong enough to save you from death or even from a wipe if your allies are down. Regen Packs restore your Willpower, Heroic Orbs power up all your special abilities, and Intrinsic Orbs provides the resource used for character specific abilities – like blocking with Captain America. It’s a very valuable artifact and one sure to help in the Heroic Elite Hives.

Darkhold

Darkhold is arguably the stronger artifact as it doesn’t rely on anything random to be useful. All three of its abilities can be incredibly useful, albeit somewhat situational. The difficulty with Darkhold is trying to gauge exactly how much Willpower you have to gauge whether Eldritch Invocation or Precept of Entropy will be used.

Ultimately, both artifacts are great and easily among the strongest in the game. While it may take some grind to get there, it’s worth unlocking both if you’re looking to play Marvel’s Avengers in the long haul.

What To Do With DNA Keys In Marvel’s Avengers

Blaine Smith — Thu, 03 Sep 2020 07:14:28 +0000

Looking for biometrically locked DNA strongboxes? This guide on What To Do With DNA Keys In Marvel’s Avengers will tell you where to find these special chests that can only be accessed if you have a DNA Key in your inventory to unlock the chest and receive the rewards inside.

After days of exploring, we’ve finally found some of the DNA strongboxes that you can open with DNA Keys. There may be other locations but so far, we have only found them in Snowy Tundra Vault (Elite). If you’re new to multiplayer, follow the objectives and eventually you will unlock special Vault missions, such as the Snowy Tundra mission. Once you have it unlocked, you can farm the Strongboxes but it’s not quick.

Where To Find DNA Strongboxes In Marvel’s Avengers

If you highlight DNA Keys in your inventory (check out our DNA Key farming guide) it tells you that they are used to “open biometrically locked DNA strongboxes in Vault missions”. Having done many, many, vault missions, we still never managed to find a DNA Strongbox, but they are not actually within the Vault itself.

You need to search the points of interest on the actual map itself, these are marked by ? icons on your screen as you explore. So far, we have only found them inside depots. Depots are the large buildings that usually have a chest inside, requiring you to solve a basic puzzle to open the door. The part that makes farming these boxes difficult, is that they do not appear on screen.

You will need to travel to each ? depot location on the Snowy Tundra map and open the depot. Even if you are standing directly in front of the box, it will not appear on the UI or Hud, so just running to a location and checking your objective vision is not enough. You will need to actually investigate inside each depot to see if the box is there.

The Reigning Supreme mission chain requires you to complete Turbulence (Elite). This guide on Where To Find Turbulence Mission In Marvel’s Avengers will tell you how to track down the Turbulent (Elite) mission as it’s not shown with a green icon at the War Table like other objectives.

Mission Chains are some of the most rewarding objectives to complete in Marvel’s Avengers multiplayer content. The Reigning Supreme Mission Chain, during Step 3, is called Shot in the Dark – it’s apart of the Avengers Initiative missions. It has several objectives, such as increasing reputation, completing a vault, etc and the final objective is to complete Turbulence (Elite)

Where To Find Turbulence Mission In Marvel’s Avengers

If you want to complete the Turbulence (Elite) mission, you simply navigate to Pacific Northwest on the War Table. You can find it on the East side of the map. It is an Elite mission so depending on your current level, it may be a good idea to select the difficulty and take it down a notch if it’s too high. Or knock it up a notch, if you’re confident in a +3 or +4 mission attempt. +5’s are very tough so I wouldn’t do that without some decent buddies at your side.

How To Unlock Vault Missions In Marvel’s Avengers

Blaine Smith — Wed, 02 Sep 2020 07:18:41 +0000

You need Vault Coordinates to unlock special missions. This guide on How To Unlock Vault Missions In Marvel’s Avengers explains the process of unlocking the Vault Missions, how you complete them, and the potential rewards for finishing all objectives.

Vault Missions are some of Marvel’s Avengers more exciting multiplayer content. Each mission begins with using the signal tracker to find the vault, before defending a room and activating certain objectives, numbered 1,2,3,4,5, revealing the vault and unlocking the treasures inside. Vault Missions are a common weekly challenge card task for characters, so finding and tracking down these elusive missions is rewarding but so far, slow and difficult.

How To Unlock Vault Missions In Marvel’s Avengers

You need to find an item called Vault Coordinates. So far we have only found them in chests with this symbol. They appear to be incredibly rare, having only found one in 10 or 11 hours of playing multiplayer. Once you have Vault Coordinates, a Vault mission appears on the world map and you can complete it like any other mission.

Once you have unlocked this mission, you can farm it for a Vault Coordinate. Day of the Remains, part of the Inhuman Faction Mission Chain. As soon as you spawn in, follow the Signal Detector to the nearby Shield bunker, this provides you with a Vault Resource every time. You can leave the mission after you find the item.

Some missions, such as the Inhuman Faction Chain Mission, automatically reveal and unlock Vault Missions so if you’re struggling to find Vault Coordinates, progressing through the different faction chains and other mission chains can also be quite rewarding.

We’re still searching for more Vault Coordinates and will update the guide as we discover and learn more information and better places to find vault access.

How To Increase Shield Faction XP In Marvel’s Avengers

Blaine Smith — Wed, 02 Sep 2020 06:07:00 +0000

Want to farm experience points for a specific faction? This guide on How To Increase Shield Faction XP In Marvel’s Avengers will tell you all of the different activities you can do to increase your experience points with this faction and earn greater faction rewards.

There are currently two Factions in Marvel’s Avengers. The Shield Faction and the Inhuman Alliance Faction. Factions are opportunities for you to earn experience points and reputation with a specific group. As you increase a Faction level through experience points. Each time you increase your Faction level, you earn faction rewards, and can purchase higher leveled items from the faction vendor.

How To Increase Shield Faction XP In Marvel’s Avengers

The Shield faction is, well, Shield. You earn experience points for doing Shield Related activities. The largest source of individual experience point increases for Factions are through Objectives. Check the main menu and look under the Objectives tab. Here you can see the available missions and the rewards. Look for the ones with the largest Shield Faction XP rewards.

Another option, and one you will want to routine if you hope to increase faction level quickly, are daily missions. The Shield Faction Coordinator is aboard the carrier. They give you a daily mission each day for defeating a boss (this is how you get DNA Keys) and then daily assignments. These are usually short, very fast, and easy to do. They refresh every day so check back for new missions.

Lastly there are faction specific missions that reward you with experience points and completing missions at the factions location gives a very small bonus to faction XP. Such as completing missions in Utah for the Inhuman Alliance. Opening strongboxes and other chests can also provide small boosts to rep.

Faction rewards are some of the games strongest items. This guide on How To Increase Inhuman Alliance Faction XP In Marvel’s Avengers breaks down the different methods of farming experience points for this specific faction, so you can level up your faction and earn greater rewards.

The Inhuman Faction is one of two factions in the game where you can earn experience points and level them up, the other is the Shield Faction. Certain activities award you with faction experience points. These points can increase the level of that faction. Each level increase with a faction provides specific rewards that you can receive from the faction vendor. The higher your faction level, the more powerful gear you can purchase from that faction.

How To Increase Inhuman Alliance Faction XP In Marvel’s Avengers

The primary source of single, biggest increases to experience points, are Objectives. These can be found on the main menu. They can be quite lengthy but the rewards are usually worth it. Search the Objectives menu for those that offer the biggest XP boost for the faction you’re looking to level.

Next up you want to make sure you visit the Faction Coordinator every day. They have a Daily Mission and Daily Assignments. Both of these can be done quite quickly and provide a good daily boost to your faction experience points level. To reach the Faction Coordinator for the Inhuman Alliance go to Utah Badlands and select the travel to HQ at the bottom. This will take you to the Ant Hill where you can speak with the faction reps.

Where To Find & Farm DNA Keys In Marvel’s Avengers

Blaine Smith — Tue, 01 Sep 2020 14:11:10 +0000

DNA Keys open the doors to some of the best loot in the game. This guide on Where To Find & Farm DNA Keys In Marvel’s Avengers will tell you exactly what you have to do in order to farm a decent amount of DNA Keys through daily activities, allowing you to open special chests within vault missions.

The Vault missions in Marvel’s Avengers offers some of the biggest possible gear upgrades and rewards in the game. They are tough, rare, and worth the challenge. Nearly all Vault missions contain special biometrically locked DNA strongboxes that can only be opened with a DNA Key. As such, it’s best to save your limited Vault attempts until you have enough keys to open the DNA box on each run. Thankfully, finding and farming DNA Keys isn’t all that difficult.

Where To Find & Farm DNA Keys In Marvel’s Avengers

Currently you can visit both Faction Coordinators to receive daily missions. There is one aboard the carrier and one in the Inhuman base. Both factions provide you with daily assignments that offer rare materials and other valuable rewards but they also both offer a daily mission.

The Villain Sector Daily Missions are available from both vendors and they both take you to the same location, an encounter with a villain boss, Task Master. Once defeated, there is a very high chance you will receive a DNA Key. I’ve done it 4 times and received the DNA Key on every occasion so while it may not be 100% guaranteed, it’s definitely a very high chance.

Be sure to check both Faction Coordinators every day to see if the Villain Sector mission is available. The Daily Missions reset at 17:00 UTC

How Long Is Marvel’s Avengers Story

Blaine Smith — Tue, 01 Sep 2020 08:18:47 +0000

Want to know the length of the campaign story in Marvel’s Avengers? All of the characters are locked at the beginning so the obvious question is, How Long Is Marvel’s Avengers Story? Wandering how long it takes to unlock your favorite characters? Well, it’s not quick.

Marvel’s Avengers pre-launch beta and marketing have left some people confused. What was initially seen as another looter-style RPG has become a more narrative driven experience, at least initially. While many players wanted to immediately jump into multiplayer, the options are very limited as all characters are unlocked. As such, people are curious as to how long it takes to complete the story and unlock all characters.

How Long Is Marvel’s Avengers Story

The answer, well, it varies. Depending on the difficulty setting, whether you’re playing multiplayer, and the cut-scenes. Playing on lower difficulties definitely makes the game much faster as the bosses die easier and you won’t die as much, if at all. Multiplayer can greatly increase how long it takes to beat the story because of the several loading screens involved each time a friend joins your party. And lastly, cut-scenes. There is a lot of story, dialogue, and exploration in Marvel’s Avengers. Depending on how much you enjoy those activities, will change how quickly you can get through the game.

Playing on normal difficulty with a couple of multiplayer games and enjoying all of the cut-scenes, you can complete the story in 8 to 11 hours. Skipping all of the dialogue and cut-scenes, putting the game on easy, you can probably do it in 6 to 9 hours.
