    Would you please confirm whether the only way to get a chance at pulling a cover in the Avengers Assemble legendary store is by getting the single token in the Avengers and Friends vault?  There is no option to purchase a cover in the legendary store with CP or any other in-game currency/resources.

    It seems like a mistake/bug to operate the way it is currently.  I could surely use a couple of Hawkeye covers!  This current setup will make chances of that impossible for me.

    @InfectiousYawn Yes. The only way to pull from the Avengers Assemble store is by obtaining the token from the Avengers and Friends vault.

    This is obviously a cash grab to get people to buy out the Avengers Assemble store multiple times at a "Chance" at getting a 5* cover you need or a 5* in general since you might just end up with a 4* after all the HP wasted. It's like your playing the odds twice. Not good. It would of been nice if the tokens also could of been obtainable in events or more than one in the vault. Even if the Avengers Assemble store would of let you at least buy them with CP as well then it would not feel like such a let down. Good luck all of you on your Avengers and Friends vault escapades.

    Another pointless exercise, can't decide if it's worst that 1:533 chance of getting a Thor in the Sakaar vault

    Glad the hashtag is picking up steam.  It’s just not a good deal.  The 250cp heroes for hire deal to get the specific classic 5* cover is muuuuuch better way to spend resources.  And with the bonus of not being subject to the fickle whims of RnG.

    @Brigby Will there be any other way of getting vault tokens?  Or is it just Hero Points only?

    Sakaar: 1:533 for any 5.  1:1600 for thor
    avengers 1:560 for any 5 1:1680 for specific avenger

    If you need hawkeye, im46, natasha, wait til they are featured in a release store again.

    This would have made sense id the token had a 100% 5 star chance

    Strange and not in the Doctor sense.

    As of this moment, I am only aware of the token being available in the Avengers vault.

    Exactly what was being smoked when this decision was made?  I would like some.

    Odds are the same between the two. The store page saying ~1:7 should really be 3/20.

    Those are still very long odds either way, of course.

    That's a lot of buy-in for a modest shot.

    I could understand a modest buy-in for a modest shot, but for this? Even if I *were* a whale, I'd look at that and go "uh, better risk/reward elsewhere".

    As a nowhere near a whale, I don't get who the target audience for this setup is. Even looking at it through my PD hat.
