Hadn't noticed until now, why is a 2* the 3k season reward?

3k in 4 PvP events is 750 per event. Why does that level of performance merit a 2* wolvie cover?

More of the same with rewards. . . icon_e_sad.gif

Though I will admit that the 10-pack is more achievable than it was last year.

    Yeah, seems like that should've been a star.pngstar.pngstar.png cover there.

    Its in keeping with the rest of the "celebration:" making the player feel rewarded commensurate with the difficulty. No?

    I have an answer that might make sense, but it makes D3 / Demiurge seem reasonable, so I'm not gonna post it here. If it's not the reason that they have, I don't want to give them a better reason to claim as their own.

    It's a very weird progression scale. The legendary token at 4k is roughly equivalent to the per-event total needed for other seasons (10k for 10-event season 18, 7.5k for the shorter season 19), but all of those had SHIELD Sim PvP where you could make up a lot of extra points. This one requires you to actually average 1k per PvP event, and thus gives out less legendary tokens than usual.

    It's that kind of attention to detail that is the hallmark of D3 quality work.

    Because 5* OML Wolverine was originally the 3000 award but the devs thought we were given enough rich rewards

    Backwards progression is still one kind of progression:

    1500 -> 1000 ISO
    1750 -> 10-pk token
    2500 -> 25 (thats right, you've hit the jackpot) Hero Points
    3000 -> 2-star Wolvie (you're really won the lottery now)
    3500 -> can't think of anything new, lets just repeat the 1500 reward!

    I've almost hit Moonstone and I am **** GIDDY with excitement.

    When I hit Wolvie I'm going to make sure I'm sitting on the toilet because I'm not sure I'll be able to control my bodily functions.

    It's worth noting that the Moonstone is sitting right above the scoring pace (300 a PvP) where a normal season hands out a 3*. Ladies and gentleman, the Anniversary CELEBRATION.
