    So I maxed out the anniversary tree a few days ago and it's going on for 2 more weeks. Any reason to continue?

    Also, we didn't get a new daily vault for the month today?

    I completed all the SXP Anniversary Pass quests last week and I know people have brought this up, but is there ANY CHANCE, that there can even be a measley reward for each 1000SXP gained past the final rewards? Otherwise, I have daily quests (about 28 left) and weekly quests (about 6 left) that are just there.

    And I know I don't have to do them, but there are some folks who like to 100% games and this will claw at us, haha.

    How about a giveaway every 1000 pts gives you one ticket after level 50

    How did a lot of you finish last week? I've been doing all the quests and am just finishing up today. Were there other quests that gave xp?

    Pretty much my entire alliance has given up with anything that awards SXP now as they completed the quests, so not worth carrying on. Even if you got 500 ISO instead of the 1000SXP it would be something

    I kinda want to ask the following thing - if I manage to get ALL the rewards on the left side or the free tier, do I get the rewards on the right side if I use HP to unlock it??
    Or do I need to gain again XP from the quests?? The FAQ doesn't really explain it...

    One for @MPQBlaine I think. Or just press the button and find out... 🫣

    Yes! If you unlocked the Battle Pass at any point of progress, you would be able to obtain every Premium Reward up to the tier you’ve already reached.

    Have to say it’s really disappointing to have no separate season quest, those of us who have already completed the pass have no goals to aim for, there should at least be an alternative value for the season points that are not used. If you get costumes you already have you get a trade in. If you already have a 5* support you get extra points. Why can’t there be something for this .

    I will still try and clear them every day as I like to complete everything I can as a challenge and keeps the game alive for me

    I think sequencing the Quests might have been better - we worked to do X-Men and Anniversary quests together and they both ended at roughly the same time for me, so I think I feel the gap more.

    It is the first time they've run the pass system though, so I'd expect them to take feedback like this on board for next time.

    In a way it’s funny that last year they ran the second Quandary simultaneously with a PVE, maximizing content to play, and this year they have created a gap in the quests after 6 months, resulting in a reduction of engaging content for highly engaged players.

    I assume anyone who was chasing quests previously has finished the season pass by now.

    Players: I hate that I have to play everyday in order to get all the rewards in the seasonal vaults. They should build in some slack for missed days.

    Also players: I hate that I’m earning points that I can’t use for Anniversary Quests. These should count for something.

    You really can’t please everyone when it comes to stuff like this.

    If I knew there’d be a 4 week gap in season vault quests I might have completely ignored the season pass quests until now.

    More then me but they don't want to admit it cause they know they be attacked for speaken up

    None says you have to do the quest so once you hit level 50 it's your choice to do them

    Simple way to make all happy

    Put all 80 quest out as seasonal so you can complete them when you want

    Used to be pissed when I missed a seasonal goal and now a chance I could miss out on one of the ascended

    But the more you look at it I now figure who gives a flying **** if you get them or not . If you don't have another ascended it's going to takes months or years to ever use it to make a 5

    This game really needs a make over badly
    Used to go from 4 clears 3 times a day in pve.. 5000 min in pvp

    Down to 4 clears on easy nodes 3and 4000 pts pvp

    Now lucky to make 4000 pts per pve and 2500 pts pvp

    Who says the season vault is coming back

    Who do we know if the season pass thing is what will replace the vault. Maybe that is why it didn't come back

    The anniversary pass was worth the HP spent on it. But it was a bad experiment. I'm sure there was some thought put into how many levels the pass had so that there was a good amount of rewards but not too many that casual players would struggle to complete the whole pass. But now many dedicated players are getting nothing for half a season of their anniversary quests.

    Compared to what would normally be here, going on the last few months, would be daily and weekly quests that awarded tokens to a seasonal vault, the season pass was a total bust. Especially since there were two really good seasonal vaults that quests could have been linked to for anniversary.

    Anniversary pass XP could have rewarded in quandary event and zombies vs MPQ event progression. It just seems really backwards which rewards were tied into which events.

    This anniversary in general really struggled to figure out a good balance for vaults and tokens. Barely any temptation to spend my HP, let alone spending any real world dollars.

    I got all the rewards from the pass already, and saw today there's an offer for getting XP for it for 500HP and 1000HP. Is there any point in me spending HP to get them? Will I get anything for it if I do?

    I don't think so. And I'm questioning how many people haven't completed the pass by now. Here on the forum (which might not be representative of the player base, I know) most have already cleared it quite some time ago.

    To be clear: absolutely not. No benefit.

    Do not waste your hp on these if you have completed it. And I suppose even if you haven’t, you’d need to consider whether you’d spend hp on the rewards.

    Yeah I completed it ages ago, which is why I was a bit surprised by this popping up today. Good to know it won't get me anything extra at least :)

    It's definitely weird. If someone joined MPQ this month and needs to catch up on SXP...they definitely don't have 1500 HP just lying around lol.
