    Ok, so, I'm still in three star land and setting up my two star farm, I haven't given any love to my four stars for about a month now. I'm hoarding my LT's until I have roster space for any new characters that I pull. Beyond that, what is the strategy behind hoarding?

    Don't spend anything ever... until you need it, have better odds of pulling what you want or can make use of whatever cover you pull. The goal is to not waste any covers or resources

    I'll go half and half. i saved my LT so i could unleash them on 5trange. but i don't like his numbers so far. the 3* version is pretty weak, that i won't use him that much,
    however, i have hoarded the following and will wait for Medusa to arrive during December.

    Elite: 66
    Herioc: 27 + 1 10pack
    Legendary: 27
    Command Points: 1204
    Taco: Sweet 47, Savory 78
    events, always open after completion. never during.

    "Hoarders log. Star date 94440.59. The walls are closing in. My tokens, they appear to be speaking to me and I can only make out a portion of what they are saying; 'op** me'. I must resist the urge to decode this message".

    I'm in! I've been hoarding for a while anyway until I can get my 2* farm fully operational. Once they all get championed it's going to be a token party!

    I've got my first 3 4* max covered and in the process of getting champed, so what the hell? Really shouldn't be opening them right now, anyways.

    wow. I've been pulling all golds for a while now and I forget how fast they pile up. in 2-1/2 days I'm at
    33 stds (added 28)
    13 elites (+10)
    20 heroics (+16)
    9 event tokens (+9)

    hopefully I make my 4* I'm working on and don't need to dip into tokens for iso or a CLR bump.

    Hoarding would be a smart idea, but I have to make an exception. I've have a modest pile of tacos I've been saving specifically for the upcoming Savory vault. I still need more covers in Scarlet Witch & Quicksilver, and I'd like to start champing Vision & Classic Magneto very soon. After that DDQ week, though, I'm planning on hoarding anyway, since most of my 3-stars are fully-covered and I don't have enough ISO coming in to support many more new champions right now.

    Aside from that:

    19 Standard
    09 Elite
    00 Heroic
    04 Legendary
    409 Command Points

    I doubt I'll be tempted enough to throw in LT or CP for Strange, since I don't have the roster slots to accommodate any unexpected additions.

    Not gonna happen. As long as the 90's Cyclops cover in the Savory vault isn't yellow, I'll be emptying out that vault. I also expect 3* Strange to be added to tokens after the Power season, so my Elite and Heroic hoards will be used to try to cover him.

    [edit]I would've emptied the Sweet vault as there is a purple Professor X sitting there that would be nice for my 5/0/4 build but I would only have 289 tacos at the end of this run and I just know that he'll still be there after 289 pulls. icon_neutral.gif

    Day 2....starting to get shaky and find myself nearly opening things out of habit.

    23 standard
    4 elite
    3 heroic
    1 vicious cycle
    5 EotS event
    4 sweet taco
    33 cp
    415 hero points

    Glad to have others following the same path.

    Started with 0 and 14 CP
    End of Day 2:
    14 Standard
    4 Elite
    1 Vicious Cycle
    14 EotS
    4 Sweet Tacos
    21 CP

    Still have to remind myself not to open them because there's a number sitting down there. Can't wait until that hits 99, I hear it gets easier...

    I am in... EXCEPT for the EOTS tokens. Those are the only exceptions. Everything else, no pulls.

    . . . but how do you get the two star covers to set up the farm without opening up the tokens?

    This has got me motivated to start saving. That and the fact I've come to the realization that if I don't save until I have all the ISO I need to champ my characters, I'm gonna have to just sell most of the 4* I open anyways. May just open standard tokens to keep the 2* farming active so I can slowly keep increasing my shield ranking.

    I've been going for check marks in PVE to keep the exp flowing, and any covers that I can win from lightning rounds/pvp/placement/progression and sending TU's to my alliance mates. Lots of requests for TU's keep coming from my PVE group.
