bluewolf said: Stop pulling classics, until they fix the odds. 5's in Classic are basically vaulted. The customer service on exchanges for Latest is awesome - usually 1-2 days max. Give up on Classics for 5's. A waste.A while ago (5 months) I asked in a thread how high a 5* % you would need to get in Classic for equivalent odds in Latest (in terms of return for CP spent). The answer then was over 40%. I think that was when there were 3 less 5's in Classic Jail. So now, north of 50%. I don't argue that equivalent benefit should exist for less CP expenditure. But you can decide how to use your CP.Not to mention that with unvaulting, your best odds of any 4 or 5 star from a pull is a Latest 5. Other than the Oops Store last week, of course.BTW, if your pulls were all made during the 25% Oops Classic store, well, I would hardly expect CS sympathy.
In general, the way I see it is you use Latest to build your 5* Roster, and when you're happy with it you draw from classics to broaden it and increase your existing champ 5*s. If you don't have Champ 5*s then Classics are a bad deal - it's a real **** shoot whether or not you finish any particular character (and there are some 5*s in Classics that aren't worth finishing, right Bruce?) I suspect this is what the devs intend for the tokens - it's consistent with the way they are laid out (i.e. with exactly the same 4* load, despite people asking for otherwise.) You draw 20% less 4* and 5* in exchange for a better chance to cover a certain 3.
I wish they'd do swaps for other than the Latest, but I heard that they're inundated with too many requests in general, so they had to limit it somehow.
wymtime said: i know nothing will come out of this thread but I have to vent about how frustrating it is to pull a 6th color cover of a 5* from classic tokens. I recently pulled a bunch of classic to try and champ some of my older 5* and what do I get. 2 blue Silver Surfers and 2 red Silver Surfers. The problem is I have SS at 5,5,2. This means I have to sell all 4 covers of a 5* I currently have 12 covers for sitting at level 435. The customer service policy on 5* is horrible. I have offered to exchange 3 covers for 1 black. I have had silver surfer at 12 covers for close to a year now and the fact that you can exchange a latest 5* but not a classic is probably the worst policy in the game.devs you need to make classics exchangeable through customer service, or start placing classics 5* as progression rewards in PVP and PVE. Maybe as CL9 or 10? 5* are already significantly diluted in classics and only a 15% chance to get one. Stop making it harder for players to cover 5* with this policy of yours.thanks for the venting feel free to vent yourself about the 5* dilution.

tonyeq said:I'd like to know how many cp and pulls it would take from latest legends at 1:7 odds over 3 characters, each at 13 covers, to get to an over 5 cover situation..
xidragonxi said: FYI they won't exchange the unusable Black Panther covers I pulled from the Hornhead store. Yet more ridiculousness. I paid 25 CP just like if he was a latest, but because he's in classic tokens, customer service won't help. I'll keep asking them to escalate.
