    Awesome SC lightning vault. 6000 HP less for me and maybe for all that people itching to spend HP.

    I actually don’t think it is that awesome. The monthly Support release vaults are better value and they run every month. I was expecting more from an Anniversary vault to be honest.

    A SC cover, 250 mthor shards 50k iso and 2 CLs for 6000 HP isn't awesome? Then I don't know what could be.

    I bought it but I don't think it was particularly great. Definitely the Support ones are more useful.

    Any chance of a PVE starting today? Looks like there will be a gap again after the Boss event.

    We have puzzle gauntlet four more days. That is where I have been grinding mine.

    Double ISO month, but no PVE's to take advantage of that :(

    I don't think the value was off the charts in the SC lightning vault, but it was decent enough for those with HP to spare. 1.5x 5* covers for very good characters plus some iso and tokens.

    It was definitely better than today's iteration.

    Not so sure about that. An ascended 3* means a lot of resources and incoming rewards everytime you favorite them, plus it's Kang.

    Depends what you spend your money on but that's not a good deal for me. It's actually pretty poor compared to what's been offered before for multiple 5* covers. But it's good you see value in something I don't, knock yourself out and spend the 6k.

    Quite simply, for me last year for 20,700HP I was getting 9x5* a ton of FF pulls and a ton of four stars. Everything else was nice to have. The first Meta vault no complaints really. I'd have preferred one anniversary vault, but whatever new stuff and all that.

    I'm not pulling anything in the anniversary that doesn't give me comparable value. Anything else is worse than last year not the woohoo big 10 year.

    There's a few weeks left but I doubt there's many people that prefer the value in this years vaults to last years. So far for me this is quite possibly the worst anniversary event I've played but if though I feel that way I'm glad they have tried new stuff, even if it doesn't work for me personally.

    Last year is a very high bar for "good value" there has never been anything like the anniversary vaults last year with multiple 5* covers and the ability to reset. I think BCS likely has some regrets.

    This. I don't yet know how to value ascended 4s and 5s in terms of champ rewards. Even at 3:1 or 4:1, do lower tier covers come frequently enough to be a valuable source of champ rewards?

    I'm hoping for an Okoye lightning vault.

    It depends on the player. If the character really fits on player's play and they favorite it, I'd say it will come quite frequently and the player will have a valuable 4*.
    The tax is negatively perceived but if you do the maths the rewards worth it .

    Love that we got a werewolf by night costume for Elsa, kind of bummed my alliance didn’t play hard enough to get there lol. Maybe it’ll be in next year’s anniversary vault.

    mine was short by like 3400 points lol. Too many people didn't want to bother with heroic I guess.

    Not too surprising. Two events at once is always a big ask, and the big upshot of the quandary puzzles is that some of them just take WAY longer.

    I crept in on my final clear to get the costume which was very lucky otherwise it would have been a bust. This was the lowest round since Heroics started that my alliance stalled out on, the appetite clearly wasn't there.

    So do ascended levels give 3 or 4 times more rewards? I find it difficult to believe that using 4 covers to ascend one level is better than adding 4 champ levels (purely from a rewards-perspective). If you like the character, then go for it, but farming ascended champs doesn't seem worth it.
