What's the best use of command points? I'm working on getting spots for 4* covers currently (2* and 3* farms are up and running).

Awesome!

Request sent!

Ymmv....

I only use them for buying legendary tokens.
500 CP for a single 5* cover is not really worth it. Even the 250 CP ones are not, imo, worth it.

500 CP could get you 20 Latest Legends tokens, 20 of a special Legends store (like the Okoye, Deadpool, Onslaught one available now), or 25 Classic Legends.

The chances of a Legends pull being a 5* is 15%, or roughly 1 in 7.
In other words, that 500 cp spent on a single 5* would probably get you 2-3 5*s plus 17-18 4*s out of a latest legend store...3-4 5*s and 21-22 4* from the classics.

There is something to be said for the bird-in-hand aspect of a known purchase, but my opinion is that the shards make that sort of unnecessary.

I wish you could convert covers to shards somehow :-/ I have about 200 command points right now.

Save them up. Beyond that I could help you a bit more if you are willing to give the information.

Do you have all the 3*s rostered? (if not how many are you missing?)
Do you have all the 4*s rostered? (if not how many are you missing?)
Do you have any 5*s rostered? (if yes, then who do you use the most?)

How many roster slots could you buy right now?

I have my 2* and 3* farms up, working on the 4* trying to focus on 4* dropped by 3*. Only have 32 4* and 1 5* (I'm not quite ready for 5* so not really keeping them. Somehow ended up with the flame Deadpool so kept it). I'm at 930 HP at the moment so close to getting my next slot.

If you are not ready for 5*s, do not open LTs.
And really, if you don’t have a roster slot available, you should not even be opening heroic tokens.

I guess it is safe to say this. Don't spend any CP. Save it up! If you have 32 4*s you are probably going to want to roster at least 90 of them before you would want to try to use your CP. This is going to be a long stretch so probably 9 - 12 months until you have enough 4*s rostered to the point where using CP will not be a detriment.

If anything there are three 4*s who you should consider making a favorite so you can be prepared to kick some butt. Polaris, Rocket & Groot, or Juggernaut. Trust me, it will be worth it. Even though you are not there yet it is a good idea to have a 5* as your favorite. Kitty Pride or Beta Ray Bill are probably the best to help you transition when you are ready.

The one downfall is that to make the whole experience easier, spending some $$$ to buy HP was the way to speed things up. Thankfully I had some itunes giftcards that I was able to use since I don't download music from there.

Remember to play both deadpools once a day to get taco points from the 3* and a spicy token from the 5*. If you save up at least 40 spicy tokens and you see a 4* in that vault along with having enough HP for a new roster spot, go for it!. It is an EASY way to get a needed 4* without having to play the "lottery" and hope to pull it any other way.

Just to give you an idea, I saved up somewhere around 2,500 (2,800?) CP before I spent it. of all the resources ISO, HP, and CP; CP is the hardest to accumulate.

I feel a bit like a grandfather watching the kids play...

Honest question for ya Quebbs...

With everything you have been hearing from us about shards, SCL 10, and other improvements to the game, if all of these were introduced right before you quit the game do you think it would have brought enough to make you want to stay?

Probably not. The issue for me was how much of my time the game took up and how much my dedication to the game limited my free time. I had a good run, but I reached a point where it just did not feel worth it to keep going.

Gotcha! Would you ever pass your hard work down to the next generation if they were interested??

I kept my account in case I wanted to come back, but that was almost two years ago. It would require a lot of hard work just to get the rust off the account. So I don't think there would be much point.

It does take a loy of time so I have to limit myself to like 2 sesions of 30 min x day.

For folks who generally have all 4 stars rostered.... what do you do with spicy tokens? I'm hoarding until the 4* in the vault has a Legendary token as the next level up reward.

What do others do?
