"Deadpool Weekly" (4*)

The difficulty in obtaining 4-stars is absurd right now. A weekly event similar to Deadpool daily would make this a bit better. Especially if it rewarded a (gasp!) general 4* upgrade token. That still means it would take close to three months to max a 4* which is far more reasonable than the 1-1.5 year timeline we are on right now.

I have pretty much given up on collecting 4*'s at the moment. I have 14 maxed 3*'s, and 1000 points in pvp is more painful than ever, and there are no 4* progression rewards in PvE. In general, if I were to sum up how I feel about MPQ in one word, it would have to be demoralizing.

  • I don't know about a 4* deadpool like thing... I do think they need to stop releasing more and more characters for a bit because all out dies is dilute the pool... I also wish they would have just left the freaking pvp alone. First time in 6seasons i won't get a 10 pack

    I'd say monthly rather than weekly, our maybe related to completing cycles in the daily.

    Maybe Cerebro Alert starting Professor X? Why should Deadpool have all the fun?

    that would be a nice daily event that leads to a node to fight( maybe a few ) then get random cover 2*-4*

    There are already, I believe, 8 4* characters (if you don't count Dino). Let's not count Dino, and assume no new 4*s get introduced.

    A monthly event would mean you will have 1 cover for each color after 2 years. A monthly deadpool for a 4* would mean it will take you 10 years to get a finished 4* out of it. I'm not saying I want to spam 4* characters into the play space, but the pacing needs to be a little faster than that.

    A weekly 4* would still take almost 6 months to get 1 cover of each color, so you will finish the current crop of 8 in 2.4 years. Even that sounds like a pretty long time...
  • And let's be clear on this: the 7 4* characters outside of Devil Dino are not the only ones we're going to see. Hulkbuster will probably be 4*, and he'll be out in a couple of weeks. If it isn't he, it'll be someone else. So a semi-regular 4* cover award system isn't going to ruin Christmas.

    I have suggested this before. You get x amount of time to complete the gauntlet, finish it, get a cover. Perfect solution.

    1-1.5 year timeline for maxing a 4*? What the Tiny Kitty have I been doing wrong? My best 4*'s are my 2/3/4 X-force, my 1/5/2 Devil Dino, & my 2/3/2 Fury. I've never sold off any 4* and I'm on day 456. To compare I've got 20 3*'s with 13 covers, and by the end of the Simulator I'll have one more.
