Alright, I have saved up 302 Taco Vault: Savory Tokens. 
(Sweet is sitting at 296)
(for those interested Shield lvl = 74 - Resupply day = 1386)

I probably could have started saving up for this along time ago, but I only decided to try a few months ago.

My objective, Pull the Top 4 Tokens 

Legendary Token
Mordo Blue
Nick Fury - Blue
1000 Hero Points.

I'm Looking for 4/300 So I have a 1.3% chance of Pulling 1 of them. 

Here we go: 



Legendary Token at 41 pulls in.  (got an Agent Venom Black BTW)
 3 out of 259 Odds are about the same 1.2% Chance

Nick Fury 52 Pulls Later. He is now 5/5/2
 2/207 to go, or 1% Chance.

Mordo  45 Pulls After that. He is now 2/2/0
1/162 to go, or .6%

Took me 138 Pulls to grab 3/300 Easy Got over half my pulls left.

1000 HP got! - with 53 left




And I'm now shield rank 75.....

52 left,
Need 248, at 15 every 10 days  .... So in about 5.5 months, It will be full enough to try again.

But I will hit my 300 Sweet tokens next week, we can do this again and compare stats.
Until then
TTFN

    Congratulations on saving some taco tokens for the next hoard.  How many health packs are you now sitting on?

    I would have stopped at 138 with the top 3 tokens left and 164 (or halfway for the next hoard pull), but still a good result!

    For me, health packs are my top prize. I always stop when I get 5 packs.

    I would recommend setting a limit next time. Like divide it into 4 batches of 75. If you get X or your 4 targets before you've drawn X*75 tokens, then you've had good luck and you should stop so you can do a big pull again sooner.

    Obviously you would tweak this depending on your specific preferences and what's in the vault (like if you really wanted that fury cover more than anything else, then just draw till you get it), but you would really improve your flow of things you want by using some sort of system. 

    I just noticed that the odds you mention really illustrate the point. After your early good luck you were pulling with worse and worse odds for getting what you wanted.

    225, but I had about 60 or so to start with.

    Yeah, I really should have. I was too tunnel visioned. When I was done, I noticed I had like 3000 more HP... so that last 1000 was totally pointless and I would have a lot more pulls left :pensive:

    I am in the process of trying this myself. 5.5 months? Not sure if I am that patient though. I'm only at 15 for each right now. Wouldn't mind having a surplus of health packs.

    It's been hinted at that the vaults are being changed so tempted to ditch the lot in one.
    Heard that in June and pulled all my tacos since. Been waiting for months and pulling the 3 tacos everyday

    I pull until I get the LT or a 4*. Then I'll wait for it to reset. Hopefully they give us some heads up before they make any major change to the taco token system.

    I've tried this a number of times, but never succeeded.  Highest I've ever been is about 150.  Right Now I'm at 120|18.  I'm finding more luck by only working on getting one to 300 and if I feel I really want/need health pack or ISO, or just to open covers I can open from one side while not killing the other.

    It took me 252 pulls to clear the first column a couple weeks ago. Didn't even get the 1000 hp. Pretty bad odds, but my other vault is getting pretty close, so I'll be able to try again soon.
