Regarding standard tokens

QuestIon for you guys. I have read that some have gotten great rewards from standard tokens. Do you horde the tokens and use them all at once or use them as you get them? I've been using them as I get them, but am considering saving them to use at once.

  • Since I don't have all the characters yet, I use them whenever I have a cover slot open.
    But I don't think it would have any impact on what covers you get, if that's what you're asking.
  • Mostly preference I think. Personally, I let my tokens multiply for a bit before opening. No effect on chances, just for my sanity icon_e_biggrin.gif

    It makes it easier to go through and sell them all at once (and only have to look up skills for character allocations) once. But I usually cash standards out too whenever I get an event coin anyway, since it really doesn't matter
  • I don't think my sanity could take seeing so many consecutive Hawkeye's at once.
  • I turn in between 30-40 at a time I've had great results 2 rags 2 spider 1im40 I'm saving gold tokens now waiting on punisher to hit token pulls
  • LOL it's true that pulling out a stream of Hawkeyes or Yelenas can be quite depressing! :-O
    I tend to save up a small pack (5 to 10) before hitting the button. I got my first (out of 2) Ragnarok from a lonely standard token, as well as a Yellow Spidey at the last of a super-**** stream of 10 tokens.

    Not sure if there's a real winning strategy to find with tokens though!
    Be patient and eventually you'll get something really special. icon_e_smile.gif
  • I just use them right away, like a reoccurring small portion of excitement during my play sessions.
  • Thanks for the replies. I can't even imagine setting like 10Yelenas in a row HA. Good to know that it's still random, hope to get a Rags soon.

    I always cash them in as soon as I get them. There's no change in probability if you wait or group them, and if I get a good cover I want to be able to use it ASAP.
  • I have 70 tokens saved up (only 1 week of saving) because right now all i need are punisher and red mag covers.
  • If I'm expecting a bunch of tokens I'll wait til I get them all/am done playing for the day. Otherwise I just pop random tokens as I get them.
  • I like popping a bunch at once. If I pop them individually, I just set myself up for constant disappointment. If I pop ten, at least i have a decent chance at having a usable new cover to be happy about after. =)

    I save them until I have at least 20, because my usual superstitious use of them is "turn them in until you get a 2-star, even if it's one you can't use, then stop for the day." I like to have at least 20 in "the bank", because I've gone as many as 10+ without getting a 2-star, but never 20. ^.^ *hopes I didn't just jinx myself*
