HoundofShadow said: As for Targeted Heroes, I find it strange that some are still surprised/disappointed that the concept of "balance" means "give and take".
Actually, that's a pretty important question: can shards even be exchanged for champion levels? The screenshots shown in the initial post just show shards being exchanged to increase the level of a power.
If you can't use shards to gain champ levels, then that neuters one of the other current methods of acquiring 5* covers: bonus a 4* character whose champ rewards give out your chosen 5* character.

Everyone starts at zero shards for all characters. Can't comment on a launch reward, but historically we have tended to give out stuff when we add/change a feature.
MoonKnight said: @IceIX This may have already been answered, but will these daily shard stores be one time sales, or will they be able to be repeatedly purchased for HP?
ThaRoadWarrior said: @IceIX I may have read it incorrectly, but do you get 3 shards towards a 5* just for pulling a legendary token, or do you get 3 shards for landing a 5* out of a legendary store?

Everyone starts at zero shards for all characters. Can't comment on a launch reward, but historically we have tended to give out stuff when we add/change a feature. You did say they may come from shield clearance level. And since some of us have been at 200 for well over a year it stands to reason that if shards are given out that way the people stuck at cap should also get compensated.
nordhofsweden said: For 5* I quite like the new system, but I dislike it for 4* and especially 3*.Why do I bh 3*? To get a 4* cover or to get a LL-token. I BH any character that'll get me there, but it'd be foolish to chase shards for more than 1 3* and that in itself is fine, but the probability of me getting that cover in a pack long before I have 300 shards are way too high.Why do I bh 4*?Mostly to champ them (but also or to get a 5* cover). It's kinda risky to target a character you're about to champ. If you get that cover in a pack you'll either "waste" your shards or continue fighting to get it from 270 to 271. (Ok, that means you'll get the LL-token so at least it's not a complete waste.)I suppose it's gonna be better to target 4* with a few covers to go before they award you a 5*.
