    Bought some of the older bundles, but passing on this one. It does not do much for my roster at the moment and it will be 1 wasted Nico cover. Maybe next time.

    You guys complaining about the price crack me up!  If you chose to just buy the 4800 Hero Points that alone would cost you $35!!  62,000 ISO would cost you close to $90 and you still wouldn't get the 10 Command Points., covers or tokens. If it doesn't benefit you just move on.

    I would but the timing isn't working for me. As it is I have covers for Moon Knight, Quake and Yondu waiting for me to find enough ISO to champ them. I don't think I can scrounge up enough ISO to make that happen before they expire. If I bought this pack, I'd have to add Nova to the list and waist one of the Nico covers since I currently have her at 3/1/5.

    Surprised there are no 5 star covers in there. If this is the step up from 7 then im not expecting any in the pack for SCL9 either. 

    Although the price is probably in line with most of the items you can buy in game I still think as a whole it is too pricey.

    68k Iso isn't going to get you anywhere. Well I think you can champ a 2 star for that ......but this is aimed at the current penultimate level of players.

    You can't even champ a 2* with that much Iso. It takes 69K to max level and 5K for Championing. So I think the devs are clueless on what roster strength is located in SCL 8.

    I’m not. It’s the most premium cover type in the game. We might see it in 9 but more likely SCL10 if it ever exists will probably be the only one. My guess based on there trends is that SCL9 will probably offer 9 covers for 2 different 4*s and more resources. Hopefully a purple support pack too.

    Personally,  I think its a reasonably priced deal and in fact they should have trippled the cost to $100 and given 3 complete 13cover 4*.

    $100 to get 3 champable 4* is a reasonable entry price that allows you to be immediately competitive to reach 900. (even if those are you only 3 champable 4*)


    My only real complaint about these shield packs is that they should offer a fully usable char. vs just 1 or 3 covers

    No matter how appealing that red iso is that would allow me to upgrade my support an entire level, I just can't bring myself to spend my life savings on it.

    From this announcement:


    Q: Will 5-Star characters be available for purchase?

      A: 5-Star characters can’t be purchased. 5-Stars are epic and developing these characters will be a long-term goal. You'll need to collect each of the covers to upgrade their powers.

    Hot off the 2015 presses and all.  I bet the ink isn't even wet yet...

    A lot of things have changed in 3 years. We did not have bundles like this back then.

    Looking at what you're getting for the price, and what price you'd pay to get some of these things individually, I'm certainly inclined to call this a good deal. Honestly, I think the deals have been getting better. 

    Personally though I'm still on the fence about these. There's nothing in these packages that my roster isn't capable of earning me for free except the support token really, and that alone isn't enough to trigger the spending impulse. I'll most likely buy these only when I've decided that I'm gonna drop some money on HP, and the additional rewards offered in these would sweeten the deal. For example, if I've decided to go ahead and drop $20 to get 2900 HP, I'll definitely consider dropping an additional $15 for 1700 more HP plus all this other cool stuff.

    Is it a good deal?  Sure.  But I'm still not buying it.  I don't feel the need to spend $35 on the game right now.  I give them $2 a month and that's going to be it for me.

    I think it's a good deal, compared to what's available in store. 4800HP is about 25 bucks and 62,000 iso is about 80 bucks. So, you are getting 65% off just for these two resources. Add in 9 4* covers, CP.and others.

    The S.H.I.E.L.D. Clearance Level 8 Bundle will be available following the R151 update, and is catered towards helping those who are just beginning their transition towards the 4-Star character tier.

    Wow, SCL8 is for ayers who are just transitioning to the 4* tier according to devs? What's that make SCL9 then? Players with a small collection of champed 4*s?

    What level are the enemies in pve for SCL8 again? Something doesn't add up here.

    I think it depends where you are from. In the UK, we pay equivalent to $43 to buy this offer. $8 more than the US. 

    For that reason, it certainly contributes to why I refuse to buy these offers.

    I’m not impressed with the UK vs US pricing. Whilst i’m Led to believe this is more driven by the exchange rate of the App Store provider than the developers the disparity is striking. I’m being asked to pay £33.99 on Apple which is almost 1:1 whereas the exchange rate is closer to $1.4:£1 and has been for a while. If this was priced closer to £25 than £35 I might be tempted.
