    If MPQ had a colorless cover system or a way to respec a non-champed cover they probably would have gotten some real $$$ from me today.

    Exactly the same. My vault also consists of a Blade and Switch cover, who I would have loved adding two more champion levels to, so I would have emptied the vault for a Quake green. As is, no money will part from my wallet.

    Seems likely I'll get it as my Quake is 3/5/4, but I'll wait until the weekend to see if I need to get points to roster Hawkguy first.

    I'd massively prefer a 1x pull option, or another 3* in there for the price of it.

    I'm saving my HP in case there's a limited Ultron vault this weekend. Probably not, but you never know...
    In either case, my Quake is championed and not in urgent need of more champion levels.

    As with other posters, I was pretty excited to see the popup that the new limited vault was Quake. I jumped over, all ready to throw my HP at it, but it was blue, so nevermind. My 1/3/5 Quake will continue twiddling her thumbs.

    Seems like a pretty big flaw in this system and unlike many things I gripe about, something that directly impacts D3's revenue in addition to my enjoyment.

    Personally I don't think the vaults are worth it. But I also agree if i was at 2/5/5 on someone i wanted to champ and it was in the vault I would prolly do it. All the more reason to make the ONE AND ONLY 4* in the vault colorless...or at least a random color like they just had in the Coulson event.

    Quakes 7 Blue power is unappreciated. It's similar to Magneto's 8 Red to destroy all team up tiles or XFW 11 Black to destroy the enemies strongest color tiles; it does less damage, but the real power is reducing the color variety on the board, thus allowing for match-5's or cascades. And her power is cheaper and you can pick the color too! If you create a team to simply reduce color variety for massive cascades and match-5's, you could have a nearly infinite combo. I've done this with XFW, 3Mags and Loki to beat Boss Rush over and over.

    So, I want to try the team of Quake, XFW, 3Mags. Blue, Red and Black all reduce color variety on the board, Quake's green shakes the board for even more cascades and match-5 setups; Mag's yellow produces protect tiles just in case. I guess you could switch out XFW with KK to produce more green for Quake's board shake. Either way, it should be a fun team to play, which is the point of this game anyways.

    A random color (like in the featured PvE events) would be even worse, as you would spend the HP with no idea whether it would be a dupe color or not. Not everyone has the same color in the vault, so it's already a random color.

    When I woke up and saw the news I was all like QUAAAAAAAAAKE VAUUUUUUUUUUUUUUULT!!!####!!!!!!!. But then I saw that it was blue and didn't spend my thousands of hp because my quake is 1/1/4 and I'm probably going to get graham's numbers of blue tokens before I get another green or yellow so why bother?

    It's really confusing how they haven't realized that having 1 of each color in these instead of 1 singular 4 star would instantly make them relevant to every player, hell it'd benefit them too.

    - All possible colors
    - boosting a 4 star you haven't seen since their release event with 1 more cover in each color
    - Letting people spend to try and give them self a shot at crash of the titans.
    - 3 4 champ levels, with bonus' champ levels for whoever else is in.
    - A way to flush some of the "rush" of HP some of the higher tier players are feeling (hmm notice a lot of higher tier players mentioning seeing 1000HP per week come in, and they have everything rostered... and they have champs... and the pulls are 1000... hm.)

    My Quake is 4/4/4 right now and I have 4K HP that I'm not otherwise going to use any time soon, so why not buy out the vault?

    Do you want to pay 8-10K HP for these vaults, because that's what would happen if you did that. 80 cover vaults (aka PvE vaults) have 3.85 4 star covers and cost about 20K to clear out.

    1/1/5 Quake here, and a blue Quake cover along with no 3* Strange in mine means there's nothing that interests me. If they would offer us one free reset of the vault each time around it go a long way toward mitigating the disappointment from these disappointing vaults.

    my quake is only 1/1/1...but also 5 captain marvel covers and only two covers i'd say are possibly useless (not championing Ares until i get my 13th x-23 cover)

    ... except now that I see the Hawkeye vault, I can't buy a single pull.

    So far the vaults have either been covers I need or have championed. I will happily buy out the vault.

    I bought out the vault mostly because the only "useless" Tokens were two two stars
    (and I had buttloads of hero points left over)
