Taco Vault: Spicy?

Maybe I am just the odd player out on this one but is anyone actually tempted to pull from this vault? I don't see much in there that interests me. I could maybe use the RiSO but even that isn't really worth the HP costs.
Thoughts?

    Nope. Not me. I have every boost maxed out (since I almost never use them/forget about them), have almost 1M riso and no more supports to level up, and have 426 health packs. And my 4* cover is Flaptain, who’s already champed, so who cares? I’m disappointed, cause I would have liked a cool vault but this just isn’t it. 😐

    Not enough fire in that spice to make me even get close to it.  It's more like the milk vault.

    Definitely not their finest vault.  Not worth spending anything on, IMHO.

    Agreed to all of the above.  Not a single thing worth it here, IMO. 

    I'm not sure where the justification of the prices are either.  When you buy a boost straight up, you get 5 of them for like 200 HP (last time I checked... has that changed?).

    This gives, what, 2 of a boost for 145 HP?  I mean, sure you got a chance at a single 4* cover, or RISO... but none of that is worth the price of admission.

    IMO, MAYBE, just MAYBE, this vault would be worth it, if you replaced the HP cost with ISO cost (multiplied by 10, maybe?).  I could see spending 1000~2000 ISO a pull to get +2 all AP boosts.

    5 Power Boost (+ all match damage by 20% each) cost 100hp. Therefore, 1 Power Boost = 20 HP. There are 24 of them, so it cost 480 HP.

    +1 to all ap cost 100hp for 10. So, they cost 240HP.

    10 Health packs cost 200 x 2 = 400HP

    1 4* cover cost 2500 HP. 

    The above cost 3620 HP in total.

    So, 2750 red iso-8 and 1 Beginner Token cost 3380HP.  :o

    Did I miss out something?

    Nope!

    It's a steal!

    Where I mean that they steal your HP.

    The vault is only open for 1 day, so we might get a new (and better) vault every day during the Anniversary.

    I can't argue against or for that.

    On one hand, ther'e's like 16 4* covers in there, 3 Fan Favorite tokens (which are pretty valuable imo), and some decent HP.

    On the other hand, 12 of those 4* covers are limited peeps.  Which means limited usefulness.

    I mean, I want the TM ones... I'm one cover away from champing mine...  but I only need the blue.  So, for me to pull from this, I would need to be okay with the fact that most of the covers I get would only go to champ rewards for characters I barely ever use, and I'd be crossing my fingers for a single blue TM cover and possibly those FF tokens.

    It's not the best vault, no.  But the sheer AMOUNT of 4* things in there is better than usual, I think.  Although, it IS a 100-item vault, so I guess it's not THAT much better even in that regard.

    It did make me wonder whether boosts are somehow linked to 5* Deadpool as I don't remember any vault that heavily loaded with them but probably this is just 2020 MPQ...

    hopefully putting boosts in a vault is limited to these anni vaults cause (at least to me) those are worse than useless.

    OK, so I was wrong, it's the same vault with a different 4* every day (got Magik instead of Blade now).

    Mine had Hulkbuster, so less spicy and more crusty old mould covered.

    For some reason I expected the Spicy tokens would be earnable from the 7 night event, but I guess not. is anybody spending into that vault at all?

    If it had a Taskmaster cover I would (or maybe a Ham) - otherwise no thanks.

    I really have to wonder who decided that Vault was special enough for the anniversary.  One four*, a silver support, lots of RISO, boosts and health packs.  Whee!

    Seriously, if we could have earned tokens for this, it might have been fun.  But to spend actually HP on it?  Yikes.

    hopefully putting boosts in a vault ends here.
