Limited Time Only: Efficient Card Mastery Farming in Marvel War of Heroes

While playing through the Deadpool Raid Event in Marvel WoH, I noticed a simple but effective way of "farming" your cards' mastery.

Here's what you need to do:

  1. Fix your ATT and DEF decks. Cards within these decks are the candidates for mastery increase. If an unexpected card gets mastered, check the system's "suggested" decks.
  2. Proceed with the latest Raid Event Missions continuously. If you get a Deadpool fight, proceed to step 3.
  3. In the Deadpool fight menu, do the following:
    1. Use Light attack (1RDS);
    2. (Optional)Ask for Support from your team; then
    3. Go back to playing the Raid Event Missions, step 2 above.
Marvel WoH: My Page. Click on "Newest Event Mission"


After a Light Attack, press "Ask for Support"

Why this works
Unless you run out of energy, reach 100% mission progress and/or reach the next XP level, everytime you finish a mission round (from 3 to 5 attacks), the possible outcomes are the following:

  • Deadpool challenges you;
  • Get one Speed, Bruiser, or Tactics card;
  • Increase of Card Mastery.

As stated in the info sheet, only 5 active Deadpools are visible in your list. Once you reach that, you will no longer encounter Deadpool at the end of each mission round. That means, at the end of each mission round, you either get a card or increase in mastery, so roughly 50-50, which is the best odds of increasing mastery so far.

Not sure about you guys, but when I tried it, I have significantly increased the mastery of my three cards in my decks (the other cards I had are already mastered at this point.)

Note however that your mastery is increased depending on the raid mission levels. From Raids 1-* to 4-*, mastery increases by 1 (since each attack costs 1 energy), Raids 5-* increases by 2, Raids 6-* by 3 (which is where I'm currently at.)

It's much better to farm mastery here than the "vanilla" missions, because aside from the above, you also have the colored item to a specific set (i.e. Storm's Capes, She-Hulk's suitcases, etc.) which you typically don't need at this point.

Risks
Note that this is aimed at farming Mastery. Doing this significantly impacts you Raid Event Rewards (Raid Rating, ISO-8 Shards, RDS Bars), as you use only the Light Attacks.

The Ask For Support step specified above is a way to make up (although clearly not enough) for lost Rewards. This relies on heavy reliance on your alliance/team mates. You only get the First Contact Rewards (Raid Rating and Shards) when Deadpool is actually finished off by your alliance. No RDS bars rewards, as you are not the Last Striking agent.

Hope this helps. Please be aware of the risks and rewards.
