Someone post when they go live. (Late tonight EST) Want me some Professor X.

EDIT: Whoa, with the new 3* drop rate in Heroics, it'll definitely be the happiest Token Opening Day yet!

    Token odds are changed in game! Go go go!
  • The odds update said it will require a patch? I'm not opening any tokens until I see 3* odds improved.

    All Heroic and Event token odds are updated. So unless they updated the info without actually changing the tokens, I don't see any reason to think they're not live.

    On another note, just opened all 177 standard tokens with no gold, so I updated:

    Out of 32 Heroics, I just pulled:

    Hulk red
    Hulk black
    Loki black
    Invisible Woman yellow
    Rags red
    Daken blue
    Mystique purple
    Cyclops black
    Hulk black
    Fury blue

    Sooo...10 gold out 32 sounds like the new odds are in to me. Didn't need a single one of the covers, but still happy for the pull.

    5Gold out of 9Heroic tokens and not a single moonstone! icon_eek.gif
    Great odds thank you devs for this change! this way opening tokens is almost as fun as it was back on early *everything in this game is great feeling* MPQ days.

    Aren't the new odds 1 in 5 for a non-2*? (meaning y'all got lucky)

    36 Standards:
    Black Widow (Grey Suit) Green

    16 1x Heroics, 1 10x Heroic
    Iron Fist Black
    Iron Fist Green
    Ragnarok Blue

    Doctor Doom Black

    Not a bad haul! Even if that makes my Iron Fist a 4/0/5. Darned no purple...

    So, opened my season 10-pack, plus a small handful of 3-4 heroic tokens I had stashed away.

    I got:

    1 x icon_starlord.pngpurpleflag.png

    and ... that's it. So, objectively speaking, this 10-pack was loads better than my last 5 (which, all told, netted me a single star.pngstar.pngstar.png), while still being completely useless to me, since I don't have any other covers for Star-Lord and am not particularly interested in starting to collect him. Woo. Hoo.

    *sigh*

    Whole reason I was saving up was the hope of a Kamala Khan cover so I could participate in Thick As Thieves and maybe have a chance at earning a cover for a character I actually care about. Kingpin's always been one of my fav's.

    Just to be clear, I appreciate the draw rate changes, even if they're not quite as extensive as might be ideal, and I don't seriously blame Demiurge for my rotten draws the last 6 moths out of the 7 1/2 I've been in the game. It's just really frustrating working hard to get that flustruganah 10-pack (which isn't a walk in the park for a 2-3 star.png transitioning roster built from the ground up on the back of Moonstone), and then waiting to actually cash it in for another week and a half only to get a single cover for a character I have next to no desire to start collecting.

    Sorry for being such a downer, but I needed to grouse. May the rest of you have better luck.

    Ah-ha! Tell me Ice, isn't it suuuuper sucky that his purple has never been an easily obtainable reward? Damn RNG keeps putting it in the top reward slot and never in progression. You'll probably have noticed a similar trend with Cage's Red, Cyclops's Yellow, SQ's Green, R&G's Yellow, Mystique's Purple and Gamora's black? Any intentions to take a look into that RNG, just to make sure it is not a human-loathing intelligent AI?

    27 Heroics:

    Torch blackflag.png

    Mystique blueflag.png
    Daredevil redflag.png

    Season 10 pack:

    Elektra redflag.png
    Cage yellowflag.png
    Rags blueflag.png
    Rags redflag.png
    Doom blackflag.png

    I "needed" everything in the 10 pack (to the extent that one needs elektra and rags). The single tokens were mixed. Needed torch black, can use cage black (now I have to decide What build I want for my cage, I have 4/5/4 with a yellow and black token queued) and Loki purple, but the other single token 3*s were just iso.

    not great, but but nothing to complain about.

    We tried looking into the code for the cover choice RNG but the PC keeps rebooting every time we open the file. I'm sure it's nothing to worry about...

    Which one of the reds is actually the AI...
  • 95 standards and 26 heroics.

    usable:
    black gamora
    2 x blue mnmags (equals 100hp)
    a bunch of iso (including 9 or so 3*)
  • ~225 standards, 3 golds

    208 heroics (4x 10-packs, 50 event tokens, rest vanilla heroics), 40 golds -> 19% pull rate.

    Before I was getting about 8% golds from heroics, so it's an improvement.

    Had a horrible token opening day until the last thing I had left was a heroic 10 pack and it gave me two Thing covers.

    Happy token opening day!

    Why on earth would you bump this thread 5 months later?

    Because I find it tiny kitty annoying when people make new threads for every inane thought that crosses their mind when there are already-existent threads that have the exact same purpose.
