In-game limits?

I've been playing for nearly a year now, but it wasn't until yesterday (!) that I realized there's a 30-point cap on all of your AP colors. I probably wouldn't have ever hit that, if it weren't for the new "waves" format.

Question being, are there other such limits I should know about? I know you can only have 30 of each boost, and there's the obvious limit on Team-Ups, but what about things like ISO-8, Hero Points, Health Packs, Tokens and the like? I don't often save these for very long (except Health Packs), but I also don't want to be taken unawares if I change my style.

    AFAIK nobody has hit the upper limits of those yet.

    You save health packs? You do know they regenerate if you're under five of them, right? The game never spells that out and a lot of people don't realize it.
  • There is currently a hard limit of 182 roster slots.

    Thank you all so much for your responses! No, I had no idea that Health Packs regenerate if you go below 5. Do you know the rate?

    That is interesting about the 182 roster slots too...I wonder if that's going to change once there are more than 182 characters in the game. Seems like it would behoove them (financially) to allow us to collect forever, but perhaps they have other plans.

    Once every 36 minutes.
  • Additional info on Health Packs: up to five regenerate, on only those five. If you get more as reward or buy more you will use them up and thats it, but the game itself has five that are 'permanent'. So if you have 5 packs and use one, a time countdown of 36mins will appear to regenerate that one. If you use every pack down to zero, you will get one back every 36mins up to 5.

    If you have less than 5 packs and get more as rewards they will be shown right away, like 3/5 and timer countin, but then you will see the number go over 5 after they all regenerate if you dont use any.

    The temporary packs (anything over 5) are always wasted before the permanent ones.
