    My last hope, to this almost unbearable annyversary, is that the new PVE event will be similiar to Places of Power, with progression rewards only and no placement. If not, this whole anniversary season will be the worst of the five ones!  :(

    I can only assume that there is a feeder coming as part of the hallowe’en celebrations at the end of the month. In any case this anniversary has been disappointing, capped off by having 4* human torch as the essential in shield training 

    there has to be very few players who will have him at 10 covers. 

    Lets hope xmas brings some better content

    Yeah sadly this is the worst of the ones of I have played. My sons gone for Scrooge in his Christmas production, I’m worried D3 are going to nab the part from under him.

    Oh well I have high hopes for anniversary 7.

    I was pleasantly surprised to see that progression and placement awards for LRs were correctly doubled for the double-iso period (this time around). Got to appreciate the little things. 
    Mainly because there are no noticeable big things out there this anniversary. Dammit, the disappointment escaped again.

    Trying to think of positives...oooh, I know! The Captain Marvel cover I got from Best in Class put her at lvl 300 which is groovy and which also gave me a Green 5* Marvel to go 1/4/1 so I went and played with her in DDQ! PSA: Yeah...she is still really really slow.

    Not gonna lie. The lack of feeders is a bit disheartening.

    The double iso let me champ 5torm this morning, so that's pretty cool. I was also hoping for a feeder - ideally for someone i'm near to finishing but they're all fun really. My current sub-goal is trying to scrounge up enough hp for the Devil D costume, which is a mechanically useless addition to a mechanically useless character, but i mean, look at it it. so majestic.

    Maybe the Lost in Time PVE will be something neat.  I've liked the last few new ones (other than Basilica requiring 4's, that still seems like a poor design decision to me for new players).

    I wish I was surprised at the lack of feeders.  I hope there's some super awesome dilution solution coming soon which will make us worry less about feeders......?

    To be honest, feeders that are non-meta characters create a conundrum anyway in the Dilution Era.  I'd rather have a different way to earn covers for 5's than bonusing, say, Sandman, when bonusing is my only reliable way to build a 4 to a decent level, and otherwise my progress is so slow.

    Yeah, I have nine covers for my 5* Thor and I could just bonus the hell out of Valkyrie but I'd rather use bonus heroes for newer 4s.

    Hate to say it, but I'm kinda over anniversary now.  While exhausting this vault over the past week+ has been great, it also means less Bonus Hero opportunities for 4-Torch.  As Spider-man 2099 is probably in my top 10 of favorite characters, I find this very sad.

    Also, GE Doom, Hela, and Rescue would like to mention something that rhymes with Bleeders, but also don't want to risk the wrath of Jules up there.

    I was hoping I would have been wrong, but it looks like the anniversary kind of sucked this year.

    I really like the Medusa costume and I’m glad to finish Taskmaster but I feel like I could have bought those literally any time of the year. Only selling me something once a year isn’t a celebration. I don’t know about you, but I haven’t been to many McRib parties.

    Real missed opportunity to buy some good will here with the player base in my opinion. Do you fellas ever report to Scrooge Mcduck in the meetings that we could be made happy with just a minimal amount of effort? Feeders is too much to ask? 

    I know we can’t just point fingers at “The Devs” for this. I’m sure you would like people to appreciate your work. It must really be annoying to have a penny pincher fighting you every step of the way.

    Maybe the devs can't quit their jobs because they'd lose their healthcare benefits so they are intentionally tanking the game, forcing out the vets, and decreasing income so that the game folds quicker.  That way they're eligible for unemployment.

    Seriously though, I feel like the person with the final say is definitely not a gamer. I would say they used to manage a casino or something but even the casino gives me a free room and drinks when I drop a lot of coin.

    Feels more like a tax collector or member of Congress.
