I'm glad they didn't attempt this, actually, as it's doubtful they have the coding in place to scale to specific portions of a player's roster (which is why the scaling in the previous version of PVE never made the 2* node easier for 3*+ players). If they tried to implement something like this for a Holiday one-of promotion and got it wrong, people would be screaming bloody murder. As it is, the event admittedly loses a little flavor, but ultimately ends up being 12 nodes for 12,450 iso and three 4* covers (two of which are at or near the top tier), which is about as good as it gets for MPQ special events with regards to effort/reward.1 -
Lost excitement when I saw dino's color was green. Already have 5 and I guess it will really be like ten years from now before I actually get him fully covered. Oh, not too happy about the one match a day since it's off season and the only other thing going is the **** apocalypse battle. Already got my one battle in (almost losing in round 1, thanks for punishing of for bad boards!) so I am done with that event.0

I think a small event like this could have been ideal for it. And if it hadnt worked as it should have, could have given all rewards to who have played in these 12 days.
Comparing this to 2 and 3* essential nodes is not completely fair i think, because there you still can use whole roster for the other 2 team spots. Probably better compare it to loaner nodes, which didnt have a scaling problem I’m aware of.
If you are afraid to try new things in ‘meaningless’, yet fun and rewarding, bonus events, when will you? I applaude every way to encourage more variety in team selections.1 -
I know we're only a day in, but this is just... ok. I'll be happy to get two of the three four star covers from progression, but I'd have liked to get some sort of meaningful reward (even a Holiday Vault token) from each daily mission, versus just 100 ISO and points towards progression.
Now, if this works the same way the '12 Days of Christmas' song does and the rewards keep getting larger with each passing day AND they stack (i.e. we now get 100 ISO each day, maybe the second day gives 250 ISO plus the 100 ISO, the third day gives 500 ISO plus the 250 ISO plus the 100 ISO, etc.) then that would actually be fun and thematic. So we will see tomorrow.
I still really hope there's a Crash of the Mad Titan again, though, as that was still the best event they've ever done and it would be a sin to never revisit it. I've been waiting all year!0 -

Check the quotes, this is about how it could have been more interesting ;-)0 -

Guys do you think the holiday vault is worth clearing? I understand it kinda depends on the 4* hero that will be offered, but still0

Now I'm kidding. Sorry I missed it in the first post.
The vault doesn't look to interesting for me. My Cyclops and my Steve are both fully champed and I didn't start duplicates yet. If the 4* is Nico and if the HP price is low I might go for it. But most probably; nah.
I'm just wondering because it's the very first time I saved up this much HP (now at 4.9k) and I could actually clear the entire vault as such. But then again I only have 78 roster slots and my Sam Wilson cover is expiring in 10 days. BUT I really want to go on a Christmas shopping spree if that makes sense0 -

I would do it only for the ISO but it's not that much ISO in it to make it worth 5600 Hero Points.
The 3* Angel covers look pink and tempting but I know once he drops into the token pool I'll cover him anyway (and he doesn't seem that good considering I'm deep into 4* realm). I have a Drax in there, he's not a character I'm focusing on ATM, and the Angel of Death token would post probably give me a champion level for Lockjaw or something along those lines. It is however not a bad deal to empty a vault for 5600 HP. But the Halloween vault was better.0 -

The 3 Angel covers will allow you to champ him after his PVP and PVE progression.0 -
Today I decided that for the rest of the days, I will use the “selected” character from my roster in the middle slot. 1. It saves me searching for a replacement. 2. It adds challenge for the one node. Why not? It is also amusing to wonder why certain ones get picked. Is it the highest? No, I think it is the lowest possible character.
Today Nightcrawler was picked (I have every character rostered besides 1*s and Archangel). I ran him with Cloak and 4ist in the assumption I could flood black and Like Unto Iron. Didn’t happen; purple everywhere. Bamf’ed ‘em all.2 -

It seems random.0 -
Anyone know what happens if you miss a day of this? Do nodes lock daily or will they remain available till completed?0

His choice, but imo, it just isn't worth it not knowing for sure what will happen come Christmas.0 -

That's all that matters in the end. Congrats.
Edit: pulled a ten pack myself and got the 4 star. So I'll treat it like a daily deal from here on out.0
