There’s been a pretty devastating bug going on in Marvel’s Avengers. Gamers were unable to accept Faction missions, which meant they were locked out from getting certain necessary resources. Polychoron and Uru, which are both used for leveling and crafting, were unable to be obtained by players.
There has now been a patch prepped that fixes this bug, among several other issues. Marvel’s Avengers V1.3.1 will be deployed this week to fix this issue. Alongside the patch, Crystal Dynamics is also giving away some bonuses to make up for the lost time.
Polychoron in Marvel’s Avengers is used to expand the power of the rarest gear. Uru is used for similar purposes. The developer is giving away these two resources for free to all players.
These rewards can be claimed from today until Thursday, October 1 at 10 am PDT. You just need to view any Hero Challenge Card to get the reward. 250 Polychoron and 500 Uru will be given to all players this way. Check below if you’re interested in more details about the new patch.
