    don't try your luck, just buy the covers outright

    Yep, i've played by that philosophy a long time. Problem with the Surfer is you can't buy his covers though. icon_e_wink.gif

    Thank you for noticing. Everyone else thinks I'm just being a cry baby jerk face icon_lol.gif

    The 4* DDQ is up?! I did not see it. Or did you pull the Legendary token from the vault?

    Sucks on the Thor Yellow. I won't have to worry about that for awhile but I can definitely see why players would be mad reaching 1300 pts in PVP to open up a 4* they have maxed.

    Vault pull!

    I was thinking about that also...hella work just to get another throw away. Oh well at least it's more ISO than the usual 2 star pulls I guess

    After the huge disappointment of my 40pk purchase, my Season end token pulls more than makes up for it.

    I reached the 10pk at 4000, placed T25 for two 10pks, and received 5 tokens for the Alliance (35 tokens total):

    10pk 1:
    greenflag.pngicon_ragnarok.png (Useable)
    yellowflag.pngicon_starlord.png (Works for me)
    yellowflag.pngicon_squirrelgirl.png (Not needed but still usable)
    yellowflag.pngicon_professorx.png (YES!)
    blueflag.pngicon_psylocke.png (Not needed but still usable)

    Two 4*'s and all usable 3*'s, I am very happy with this pack!

    10pk 2:
    purpleflag.pngicon_jeangrey.png (First one!)
    yellowflag.pngicon_cyclops.png (Not Needed, might start a second one)
    purpleflag.pngicon_kamalakhan.png (Not Needed, might start a second one)
    purpleflag.pngicon_jeangrey.png (WHOA!)

    Not 1 but 2 Jean Grey's of the same color.. she really is "Full of Surprises!"

    10pk 3:
    yellowflag.pngicon_hood.png (Not Needed)
    blackflag.pngicon_ironfist.png (Not Needed, might start a second one)
    blackflag.pngicon_quicksilver.png (Useable)
    yellowflag.pngicon_blackpanther.png (Needed)

    No 4*s but the BP was definitely needed, he's my least covered 3* so this made it worth it (3/1/3).

    5 Tokens:
    blackflag.pngicon_bullseye.png (Not needed but still usable)
    greenflag.pngicon_shehulk.png (YES! 5th Green)

    2/5 works for me, She-Hulk Green was needed.

    So overall 14/35, 4 of which were 4*'s and 11 are useable with 3 maybe duplicates. I am very happy! icon_e_biggrin.gif

    This is what my 40pk should of been! icon_lol.gif

    Man I need your luck on 4*.

    I also bought a 40 pack and along with the end of season rewards, few stockpiled tokens and my 10 pack progression I got 1 fury from legendary and 1 iw. That's it. So 2 covers one was guaranteed a 4*. Me sad.

    Oh well saved me money in long run as there were certain 4* covers I'd have upgraded but I don't have them yet. Not to mention the 2 40 packs I was planning to buy for iceman's pvp. With that luck though hell no! Grinding weekends sucks though..

    Hopefully this comment will improve my token juju like it did for you icon_e_smile.gif

    I must say whenever I vent my token frustration on the forums, normally the next time I open tokens I yield great rewards, but that could simply be a coincidence icon_e_wink.gif

    I rarely pull 4*'s so this was a pleasant surprise overall. I wish you LUCK on your next token pulls icon_e_biggrin.gif

    I will respond to this thread next time I pull a 4* (not counting from legendary tokens hah). See you in November 2016!

    The 4* pull rates from tokens are gonna increase when the new season starts so you might wanna hold your token pulls and purchases for now

    Can you cite this, to my understanding it's only increasing because they can't reasonably lower them that much lower then 1-2% and like just shifted it to make room for the new 4 stars as opposed to them all being raised significantly.

    I wouldn't expect it to be different enough to consider stocking up the like potential weeks worth of tokens you can get, if the raise is lower then 10%.

    Will - So you've seen some changes along those lines. For example, there's a bump to the 4-Star drop rate in Heroic packs and Event packs a couple of months back. We'll be doing that again at the start of Season XIX, but there's also more big changes coming to that.
