How should Fury be rewarded/handed out to community?

I expect them to start integrating Fury soon but I was curious whether you guys had any opinion on how they should do it. For instance, they could make it just like any other 4-star or they could make him a special type of progression reward just to name a few ways.

Thoughts?

    The only difference between Fury and the other existing 4*s is he's not completely rubbish. Throw him in the rotation like the other two - and tokens as that's where all my X-Farce covers come from icon_lol.gif

    The only reason the other 4*s are in the rotation is because they suck so D3 doesn't care about giving them away at considerably less than the 2500 HP per cover they charge you to upgrade it. Tokens would be fine because it takes way more than 2500 HP to get any 4* cover via buying tokens. If Fury ever showed up as a 1300 PvP prize that'd be solid proof D3 have no idea how to make money from this game and that'd be a bad sign for everyone in the long run.

    Let's assume you are right and they don't 'give' the covers in tournaments, that you can just buy them. You have to get the first batch in tokens, and get a 4* in tokens is really difficult. You have now a 1.5% probability of winning a 4* (I am using pack probability as you will have to buy a lot of tokens), but this will go down once Fury is in, maybe to 1.0%, so more or less, If you buy 100 tokens you will get 1 fury (!!!). This is 11.200(40)+11.200(40)+2.800(10)+2800(10) = 28.000 (100) HPs But this is just for one cover, if you want 3 that would be 300 tokens so 11.200 * 7 (40*7) + 2.800 * 2 (10 * 2) = 84.000 HPs (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) Then you need to buy the other 10 covers so you have to add 25000 more to max him.

    Then, to max him if you are lucky, 300 tokens to get 1 Fury of each color, and 25000Hps to max the covers, this is 109.000 HPs !!!! (If you are lucky and win Fury for each of the covers) In money that is more or less 90€ * 5 = 450€

    It is so damned expensive that novody will do it.

    And you forget that earning covers when you get to 1300 or finishing 1-2 is not that easy, it is a lot of work and shields so not everybody will be able to do it.

    And then we have the most important reason for me, all the content in the game should be winnable by playing. This is very important for the perception of the game. If you have to pay no matter what to have one of the best characters, then this game will be perceived as P2W (more than it is now) and a lot of players will go away.

    I really doubt X-Force and Baglady were deliberately designed to be terrible just so they could be handed out as prizes. The fact they suck is irrelevant.

    All characters should be available as prizes no matter how hard you may have to work for them.
