edited December 2016 in MPQ General Discussion
For those of us who want to horde, but cannot seem to do it without external motivation, I am declaring November to be No-Pull November.

No pulling tokens of any kind, no spending CP.

You can spend HP (and the 100 HP deal of the day on any vaults that you don't yet have tokens for).

Who else is going to go for it? On December 1 we can pull all our tokens and CP and share our hauls.

    Click bait title, feeling cheated...

    I'm in though! I swear by the honor of Robert the Bruce I will not use any token!

    How can I spend HP on daily deals for vault if I have a token? icon_e_confused.gif

    Anyways, I am currently doing this now. I have horded all my Heroics, LTs, and CP for the past couple of months. I have only opened Event tokens so I don't have numerous Post-Event token screens. I cannot wait to open everything! icon_e_biggrin.gif

    I was actually going to empty my legendaries when strange gets put in and then start hoarding LTs again. Then I was going to save everything until Christmas and have a present to myself with a massive opening on that day.

    I'm already doing this so count me in icon_e_smile.gif

    Currently
    9 LT.
    353 CP.
    87 standards.
    37 epic.
    30 heroics.
    Just restarted my taco vaults though last week.

    My mission is to champ a few more 4* to maximise my next lot of pulls. Very high chance I'll be saving til January!

    Did this recently with LT/CP only. Swore I'd not pull til I hit 1 million iso. Actually made it to 1.3 million thanks to anniversary and champ farms. Best decision I ever made.

    I would still pull Dr. Strange event tokens. Wouldn't want to miss out on any limited items.

    I've been hoarding for Dr. Strange and plan to open everything I have when he's available, but after that I'll go back to hoarding. So, I'm sorta in.

    I think I can resist CP and LT pulls until then. Event tokens I'll keep opening so they aren't all one-off vault pulls. Tacos will be the hard part.

    The issue is, at this point the only enjoyment i get out of the game is the occasional reward because i have to use pretty much the same team for everything.

    My roster is too close to 4 star to play with this team much longer lol.

    I don't know how you guys do it, mainly because I'm so tired of the events run etc cycle going on, at least the little pull of that rng lever freshens things up a bit

    I'm mainly making clears of EOTS because it has tokens.

    I'm still gonna plunder vaults I can use the 4* in. I imagine I'll plunder the strange vault too. Liking clearance level 8. 2 tokens for t50 alliance finishes is niiice.

    Bear with it, once you get a larger roster of 4* the game becomes a lot of fun again. The transitions in this game are brutal.

    Yeah, what the hell, I'll do it.

    Only exception is that I may spend 120cp (which I already have saved) to champ Quake.

    I'm at the point now where my 4s have enough covers at 5 to where I pull a lot of dupe covers. So hoarding cp and LTs isn't a bad idea for me anyway.

    I'll just have to remember not to open those standard tokens - it's just automatic for me to do it when I get them.

    Tacos are easy after you start doing it. Idk how you guys are going to hoard the rest of it though, because I can't...

    I was gonna do a mini hoard for strang3, but why not go the whole month (hell he may not end up in tokens till then anyway).... if I can remember and don't forget and open something (memory not that great), I'm in too. tacos don't count (for me) - still use those for healthpacks now and then. current starting stats:

    5 standards
    3 elites
    4 heroics
    32 LTs
    1517 cp

    dec 1 i'll pull std and gold tokens. hoarding cp and LTs for something bigger picture.

    edit: doh. working on a 4 with covers expiring. this is probably not gonna work. have a 2 a few covers away that needs to get covers so I can sell so I can save the ones in queue. not sure I can do this lol. pulling today and may start late again. we'll see how it goes.

    Also was hoarding Latest for Strange and CP since I have no ISO - so I might as well be in also.

    I thought it was a good idea and was going to go along with it, but who am I kidding, there's no way I can hoard like that. I always open stuff as soon as I get it.

    I don't know how you hoard - it bothers me to no end to see that little number bubble telling me I have tokens.....

    It's also why I check all my apps so often on my phone and why I clear notifications immediately.....

    I...I think I might have a problem....

    hoarding makes sense when you are too saturated, or waiting for a new guy, or just iso dry. certain forms of hoarding are just dumb. waiting for a year to get a 4s for example. if that is your idea of progression youre not going to get anywhere.
