Are there many higher tier players who don't have the 2*s already?

I am one of those that is grateful for the Taco vaults and has used them to fill out my 3* roster. There are 53 items rated at higher than 2* in each vault, and I often have about 20-30 items in a vault that I want. Even now that I have a few 3*s almost maxed so I can't always use some of the featured 3*s, I still have at least ~15 items of interest. That's a 5% chance per token, but I hoard my tokens and wait for what I _really_ want. With just a little patience, I can easily build up a really good chance of drawing something I want. Granted, it's not so much by emptying the vault (although that helps very slightly) but more about just waiting to splurge when the featured 3*s are something great (e.g. the current GSBW has been good to me).
Assuming 15 'good' things:
1 token: 5%
30 tokens: 80%
60 tokens: 97%
I do draw a ton of 2* trash and Health Packs along the way, but over my 200 days played, I have cashed in tokens 6 times, and earned the equivalent of 2-3 'good' things per month from taco tokens and I'm quite happy with that. I was hoarding for specific 4*s by emptying the vault, but decided that I might as well use the tokens to chase 3*s while I still need them, and it has helped.
I think Lightning Rounds are better for fleshing out a 2* roster than taco tokens, but I definitely don't see how DDQ is hurting progression. 1 3* cover for anyone with a 2* roster and the essential, plus 2 shots at 18% for something above 2* is _way_ better than PvE grind or PvP frustration, imo.0 -
My girlfriend is a fairly new player, and in the 1-2* transition, the 2*s from the taco tokens she could pull from the 1/2* survival wave node helped her quite a bit to get more of her 2*'s in fighting shape.
Now that she's slowly moving from 2* into 3* land, she basically uses them the same way I do: open them when you need additional health packs, and any other useful pull that comes from them (which does still include missing covers for several 2*'s, in her case) is a nice bonus.0 -
It's a lottery. There is no lottery where you always win.
Use it to get health when you need it and be happy about the iso. The rest is a bonus.0 -

Yes, they tend to be kicked off for the sake of roster space, usually.
Although they tend to come up in event tokens often enough that you'll probably have one in your queue somewhere hopefully.0 -

I just kept all of mine. Couldn't justify selling them for a pittance when I spent so much time and ISO levelling them.0 -

The amount of 2* covers seems excessive and could easily be reduced, also given that 200 HP worth of health packs and 1500 iso are also classed as 2* rewards it would seem to imply that 250 iso for a cover is not enough too.0 -
Funny thing is, for me right now the 2* rated 1500 iso is worth more than a 3* cover, but it still makes me happier to see that shiny gold 500 iso pop up. Just a thought...0
