    Now a fosthor vault. Good character, but not one that benefits hugely from champ levels (compared to someone like SC). No doubt purchase for anyone with 6k HP to spare and an unfinished fosthor, but not something I will go for myself.

    Lol what?
    Her damage skyrockets with levels, put some on her.

    Yes, health and power damage is good. But she doesn't true heal and a huge amount of her value is passive boardshake that has nothing to do with her level. So unless you are reliant on maximum damage from her actives the increased chance of her tanking makes her less sustainable as you add champ levels. It's not that she gains nothing from levels, she just doesn't gain as much as someone like SC, or okoye, or HEvo, oe colossus for whom each level is all upside.

    Lol wut. No.

    Level up Thor. She has a ton of health and she does a ton of damage.

    Does anyone know when we are supposed to get the preview for Peggy? I’m wondering if I want to open up a bunch of tokens and go all in on the current latest or if I should wait.

    The only factor for that decision is between Omega and Peggy, Because Peggy would push out Omega from latest. CarMiles is pushing out VenomRex on Thursday. I doubt that Peggy will be as good as Omega, but anything is possible

    Yeah, that's kind of where I am. I'm looking to open a fair number of tokens to maximize my Omega Red, particularly since I think Venomsaurus is better than Miles so I probably want to open them now, but I really want to see if Peggy will be good before I do a serious investment of pulls.

    If the preview isn't up soon, I'll almost certainly pull half of what I got, but still, I'd like to see...

    You guys have 550s that you run with her. It's a different experience for baby champ rosters. The marginal offensive difference between 451 and 453 is small and is diminished if she tanks a lot more.

    I don't feel bad about adding champ levels to her through natural play, but I don't give them as high a priority for HP or cash purchases as I do for premier tanks, whom I always want at the head of my pack. Fosthor is someone I always want around but don't necessarily want to be might highest level character.

    The difference between any character at 451 and 453 is incredibly small, including their match damage. How would one or two levels cause her to tank over Shang-Chi, Evolutionary, or Colossus, three characters with passives that massively increase their match damage?

    Feel free to buy or not buy whatever they sell, but to say that you shouldn't level up any character is weird and basically always unjustified.

    Level up your guys. It's the entire point of the game.

    I don't care if she tanks, I want her to murder the enemy team.
    At some point you'll have to accept that you're going to take lots of damage in PVP.

    Jane is a proper Thunder Goddess, she just piles in and starts wrecking things, not like that cowardly skulking Asgardian hiding at the back! Let her tank all she likes!

    Exciting news!

    To go along with the much loved Quandary boss event rerun and Heroic boss event there's a bonus PVE for Peggy covers full of waves nodes - Heart of Darkness running at the same time!

    FINALLY the type of vault I've been waiting for! BRB + Polaris + shards and iso?

    😁

    This week's Meta vault is awesome. Thanks Devs!

    Here’s a question, important I think. We were led to believe next week’s Metassential Vault would be the last, and similar to the first... but now that we see Anniversary season is a full season, what will happen during the last two weeks of the season? Two more Metassential Vaults? Or something else? Have plans changed along the way?
    I’d like to know how to handle my HP and tokens lol.

    Now a polaris cover + 1/2 a fosthor cover lightning vault for 6k hp? Literally the same price they asked for a vault with SC and 1/2 a fosthor cover? That's borderline insulting to the playerbase's collective intelligence.

    Good deals can't exist if they never offer bad deals. None of these things have any objective value.

    This deal would be pretty appealing to a player in the 4* transition who hasn't cracked into 5s yet. Polaris is the most OP thing in 4 land and 5* shards are great because you don't need to cash them in immediately.

    It's a skip for me since my roster is past that point. Not every vault is going to be something I would pull, this one didn't bother me the way the 3 cover Meta vault did.

    During the twenty four hours this lightning vault is available a player can spend 6k HP for 1x polaris cover and .5 fosthor covers (and some ****). Or they can spend 8k HP over 2 days to get 3x brb covers, 3x polaris covers, 8x assorted legendary tokens, 300k iso, and 2x master support tokens.

    The only way this makes sense is if you just don't care about 6k HP at all.

    I still bought it for the two classics.

    Or if that player needs Polaris covers (with 2 CLs), having in mind that her ascension is coming.

    You are someone for whom the 6k hp is basically trivial.

    Now a good 5* cover, but the shards are downgraded to 3* shards and one of the 4* covers is replaced with a 3* covers. Seems like the are experimenting to see how little value they can put in these lighting vaults while still bleeding HP from the playerbase.

    That's a "No" from me dog.
