    Won’t be a better offer between discount and extra resources.

    True now what will or should you use the hero points on?? Even if you have all character slot + extras slots vacant. 
    Do you use them to buy a 40X hero pack or save them for health and PvP shields??

    There's no such thing as having enough slots.
    Buy more slots. Always.

    So if I buy 20,000 hero points, spend at least 50% or more on slots?

    Yep.
    Eventually you'll need slots for all your 3* dupes - don't underestimate that cost.

    It all depends on your buying style, playing style, etc.  If you are hp positive on a normal basis, you will not need to buy slots as you can probably afford it with regular play.  The big spenders will buy lots and lots of 40 packs (heroics and off season) to get the additional lt and covers that they then use to get champ levels on all their dupes, etc.  If you are not hp positive, then hold the hp for slots, health packs, and shields.

    Note that those 40-packs (Heroic/Offseason) are the cheapest ones.  Other than buying out a really nice vault, those should be the ones you purchase, if you're going to.

    The old PvP token packs for new releases used to be worth considering, if you were very interested in that character.  They were the best chance to target a specific character.  But those appear to not be a thing anymore, and that's a shame.

    Only buy a 40-pack if you're set for slots, though.  It's a boring purchase in the moment, but it lets you build your roster bigger and get champ rewards.  Pays off long term.

    I bought two starks, ended up being $75 for both. Should have been $65, but for some reason Amazon charges tax when Google doesn't, so I had to buy some more coins.

    Uhhh....anyone have problems getting their purchase? I bought through the Amazon app, hp and cp showed up, logged off and came back and now they're missing from my account. I submitted a ticket but I guess everyone's on holiday. Should I not play till Jan 2? :(

    Oh that’s no good. First I bought amazon coins from the Amazon website. Then logged into game on kindle fire, then used amazon coins to buy the $49.99 pack. Received coins and CP, though I did not log out at all. That may have been your mistake. I even continued to play on my iPhone 7 after the purchase and everything is okay on my end.
    So logging out, right after your putchase, may have caused your problem.
    Hope you get that fixed soon. Remember to restart your devices, that usually helps me when I’m trying to troubleshoot something.

    How do you get the discount price to show up?

    I open the game and the same price/ coin requirement is there.

    You try to buy when the sale is still live in your part of the world. It's over all the way from Australia to Europe to West Coast USA.
    (Amazon 50%, that is. Mpq 30% extra is still a few days)

    I believe it is only Kindle and Android users. If you’re on steam or iPhone, it won’t show. Plus I think the Amazon sale has ended.

    You really couldn't find a better deal on hp if you tried, yet as a seasoned player with plenty of disposable income, i have no interest.

    'Member when they used to do stores instead of vaults for incoming characters? If I wanted to cover the new character I would have more incentive to buy 40 packs. I refuse to invest money in a vault for 1 cover!

    This game is becoming so geared toward whaling its sad.
