    Balance of Power gives everyone every character at 550.

    This does...not do that. This gives everyone the ability to get all characters to 550, but, like, a lot of folks aren't gonna get there ever, and some of us are gonna get there a lot faster than others.

    Wait...let's say I bind 2 3* Psylockes and ascend to a 4* like in the posts example but then I want to make her a 5*. If I'm reading the ascension tree right....I would need to recruit two more 3* Psylocks, bind them into a 4*, then bind that new 4* to the one I already have to ascend to 5*....

    That means I would need a total of 4 Psylocks. So theoretically my 1 new 5* Psylock roster slot would technically cost 4800 coins....

    A 5* slot now costs 4800 coins not to mention the ISO all of which would be more than just recruiting a 5* rarity character...

    Coins and ISO will need to grow proportionate to the game otherwise this just feels like a way to get people to pay more.

    Please tell me I'm wrong!

    You don't lose the slots, they free up when you eat the toon, so you only need three slots to make a 3* into a 5*

    Will costumes be specific to the name or the rarity?

    Will a 1* or 2* champion ascended to a 3* (at least) be able to be equiped with a support ?

    No, only organic 3-stars onwards.

    I'm not going out of my way to make a 1 star a 5 star.
    When balance if power is around , I rarely use 1 star characters during it.
    I've noticed they are now selling roster slot tokens in some of the deals and the biggest issue this will create will be around roster slots.
    Until roster slots get cheaper, or duplicate characters don't consume an additional roster slot, I don't think I'll be investing in champ 2.0. I barely have enough resources to keep up with new characters.

    Since the Ascend Champ rewards do not reward covers or shards, they should have replaced it with Classic Tokens

    well since i sold off all of my dups 1 2 and 3s so i would not have to pay 1200 tokens for slots this means nothing to me and really no reason to even try it,,, mostly a big middle finger to all of the people who had 300 slots filled and had to sell

    just another reason why stop putting money into this game long ago

    Wait, I thought ICE said all 3s or higher can get a support... as each star rating is technically a separate character (they can be balanced separately) that would imply once a 2 ascends they can have a support? Did I miss something?

    You missed nothing. The post from ICE indicates that once a character is ascended to 3* or higher, it can be equipped with supports. I would even expect that 1* Spider-Man ascended could use Spider-Man specific supports.

    There are 2 Classic Tokens in the 3* no feeder rewards.

    We really need a centralized space for all the information that the devs put out in various places.

    Maybe someone could create some kind of MPQ forum?

    ...OMG.
    When your new feature takes 5000 words to explain AND an excel.

    After reading these posts, I have many points I would like to make about this:
    1. Ascending 1s, 2s and 3s will give you better rewards and is the smartest way to farm.
    2. Ascending 4    s will give equivalent rewards but a stronger 4* to use
    3. Unfortunately, this would take a crazy amount of roster slots to ascend everyone, 5 slots per 1*, 4 slots per 2*, 3 slots per 3*, etc.
    4. Most players will not be ascending 4s anytime soon and even if they do it would take years to hit 550. Even 1s would take at least a year (unless you have a hoard of standard tokens).
    5. This is actually good for new rosters because they could ascend just a few lower tier characters really fast.

    Am I a joke to you?
    I give this forum my all by giving you all the information that isn't correct or vaguely useful.
    Nor am I paid for my time to come up with this absolute tosh.

    Sorry, have you not been receiving your paychecks? I've been paying you to come up with this absolute tosh for months now...
