We're not planning to remove anything from progression & placement rewards, just adding on top. I meant more from 80 item vaults and taco vaults. Gotcha - where Support-related things are added to vaults, they're replacing things that we think are less valuable, let us know if you disagree.

bigsmooth said: Question: Does "recruiting" or "leveling up" your supports give XP toward SHIELD ranks?
veny said:So, few questions if you dont mind:1) Can we expect some regular ISO/covers/CPs/etc. outflow to make space for red ISO and Supports? I actually would not mind that, IF (!!) releasing of new 4*s will be paused/slowed due to releasing Supports.2) Can we expect some promoting mechanism for Supports? Farming/grinding is mostly finite, which is bad for playerbase, but promoting covers, farming champion rewards and selling them for near to full price was very good step.3) Can we expect Red ISO being rewarded for Shield levelups? Or, can we expect Supports to give Experience points toward SHIELD levels?

The pessimist in me agrees, but it does seem like it could be cool/fun as long as it doesn’t dilute other rewards into oblivion (which seems like it would be super easy to do). Hopefully this largely replaces 2* and ST rewards rather than higher rewards.

Wow. 2 Days in a row I agree with @broll For this being a PVE feature, for the top end PVE players I am not really sure how much this will help since PVE for us is all about speed AND tapping until that is finally killed. This is cool to add in more things Marvel related, but for the pure speed of PVE, I just don’t know. I am hoping it is cool, but like Punter and broll I am concern that for some this will reallly not do that much for us.

Straycat said: Seems like a decent way to make bad characters better, but with the 2 hour cooldown it just makes sense to put your best 3 supports on your best 3 characters. The forum has been asking for more reason to use their whole roster, not less. Not sure why supports are being added, but if that was the goal, I think it would be better if the cooldown was for use per character. So if I used it a support on my required 4*, I could only get the benefits of it by applying that support to a different character, thus making me change my team. I dunno, trying to think what this feature accomplishes in regards to some of the forums usual asks, and that was all I could think of. I'm definitely interested in the new things to collect and level up, and I think it will be fun to try out.
