Does anyone else think it's crazy that the Shield Simulator has 1* covers as rewards all the way up to 1400?????

I can't imagine anyone that can get to 1400 actually needing a 1* cover.

    I know, I hate it. The covers you actually need are in the last two milestones. But I get it: if D3/Demiurge make it too easy for anyone to get 3*/4* covers, the game will become too easy. Their theory, of course. I say even if people are able to get all the covers they want at anytime the constant release of new enemies will ensure gameplay forever.

    I don't think they consider it a real 'reward.' Just 100 hp.

    If it were 100 ISO, it would save me a few taps. So I actually do wish they were straight ISO.

    Of course, I would rather they fix the values...

    Yes, progression rewards need to be lowered, like they got lowered in PVP.

    Shield Sim is worth about 2 PVPs, so the covers that are now at 2400 and 2300 should be at 1150 and 1200.
    Just half every point value for every prog rewards and we're good.

    And get rid of those ridiculously useless 1* covers, nobody needs those. Replace those with standard tokens.

    Come on D3, put a little bit of effort, stop using the same boring template event after event, and BIG YES, get rid of those useless 1* as reward, put iso so i wont use calories deleting them.

    Seems to me that the SHIELD Sim is intended for newbs to the game. Keeping that in mind, sure the reward structure could be altered as most newbs aren't going to get in the thousands-of-points range to get those higher covers.
    Still tho' remember... newbs.

    Even standard recruit tokens up to 1400 and heroic after that would be better, so we had a chance of getting something useful.

    It's just a way to artificially raise your season score.

    That's it.

    The rewards are simply a bonus.

    I don't like it, but it is something you need to get accustomed to if you want to place any higher than top 200 in your season bracket.

    The reward structure is kind of a relic of the sim that existed previous to seasons. Whatever you think of the rewards, it's still better than what we had before. Hopefully, they'll get another face lift soon.
