Taskmaster

Avengers Blast From The Past 04.png
This will be one of the missions where you can battle Taskmaster again.

Avengers Blast From The Past 05.png
Similar to other missions where you battle him, he will summon his Watchdogs whenever the battle goes against his favor. Once the Watchdogs come in, focus on them first before returning to attack Taskmaster.

Avengers Blast From The Past 07.png
Stay away and use ranged and let your other heroes deal with it. Using Iron Man with his mini-rockets and Unibeam and Black Widow with her High-Caliber Shots would work well here.

Use your Heroics whenever necessary to deal with Taskmaster's high Willpower.
