New Feature in R191: Mighty Tokens

TPF Alexis

I'll pretty much always pick up any bundle that involves getting LTs for HP. That's a trend I really want to support.

Personally, I also felt like the Mighty Tokens were really satisfying to open. Just knowing that I wasn't going to be getting any 2* chaff was really nice.

i checked the reward structure (SC7) for the modok pvp and there wasn't a mighty token in the progression rewards. there's a gap between the 1000 reward and the 1200 reward. 1100 progression, wow, what a perfect place to put the mighty token.

no point in putting out a new token if there is no way to get it. maybe it's in SC8 or 9? can anyone confirm?

No, it's certainly not in 8 or 9.

Who knows when they will put them into actual rewards.....  I don't think it'll be soon though.  Maybe in December after they sell a few more MT bundles.

Why would you value a "possibly a random 4*, but probably a random 3*" token higher in the progression reward table than the guaranteed non-random 4* cover?

There are like, three or four reasons that's the wrong way to look at this.

1.  It's about filling the gaps and not moving existing rewards, for several reasons. Keeping the rest the same means people don't have to change their expectations for PVP, you can still get your stuff at 900 or 1200 with the same effort as before. Dropping it at 1100 would encourage people in the 900-1000 range to try a little bit harder to get the next reward. Dropping it at 1100 means the people that push to 1200 and don't quite make it get something for their effort, so a 1150 feels good because it earned a Mighty token, instead of feeling like they should have just shielded out at 900 and been done with it.
   
2.  This doesn't say "Mighty tokens are worth more than 4-star covers." It says "900 points is worth a 4-star cover, and 1100 is higher than that so getting that high gets a 4-star cover AND a Mighty token." The cumulative rewards matter as well.
3. The rewards have never been ranked by value. The ISO at 825 points isn't worth more than the 3-star cover, HP, or CP from lower point values, is it? This line of thinking gets even worse if you compare it to PVE, which has ISO rewards all over the place higher than 4-star covers and CP and other things considered "more valuable."

I agree with this ^. I push to 900 and tap out immediately, even though i could generally get to 1000 or 1100 with some effort. If there were a token floating in that reward gulf, I might swim out more.

jhawk basically said it already, but here's my cliffs notes: i'd rather get something for getting to 1100 points rather than nothing.

i'd also like ways to get things they introduce in the game. like supports. why introduce something if we cant get them?

So will we ever be able to ‘earn’ a Mighty Token? Or is it purchase only?

We are waiting for these or be “earnable” just like the costumes we were told that would be “earnable”.

They're earnable in that you go out, you get a job, you work, then they pay you, then you pay d3 for the costume.  *Earned*
