When I first started playing MPQ, earning a 10pk in PVP was quite the achievement. It reminded me of opening a box of Magic the Gathering, trying to get some Mythics but unlike Magic where you are guaranteed a Rare in every pack and about 5 Mythics in a box, the 10pks do not guarantee anything.
I have consistently hit T25 in PVP for the past few seasons to win two 10pks plus the 10pk at 4000 and at least 10 tokens throughout the season. You would think with 40 tokens I would be rich in Gold but sadly that is not always the case.
The worst feeling is opening nothing but 2*'s or covers you don’t need
Yes I agree that Championing will make all of our 2* covers more valuable but the 10pks can still be disappointing. I am sure most of you remember the time I foolishly purchased a 40pk and I did not open 1 4* (https://forums.505go.com/discussion/32721).
Could a Heroic vault be the answer? I know I would get more value from 50 tacos from my 300 item DDQ vault. Maybe give us the option to sell our 10pk for 20k Iso, risk vs reward. They can continue to increase the % but I have not noticed a substantial change in my 4* pulls.
I am not complaining as I no longer have my hopes up when I open 10-pks, I am just curious to see how other players feel about 10pks now that we are 22 Seasons (plus 2 Anniversaries) into the game. Comment below on your ideas and thoughts.
How are you getting so many 10-packs? I finished the seasons with over 15k pts and just barely cracked the T100.
I don’t care about the 10-packs. I get 1 per season and now can usually add most covers to champions. I’d rather see something better than 5 heroic tokens and 3 CP for busting my ass for 4 weeks.
It’s absurd. And I can’t justify spending HP on more shields to push even higher than 1300 every event because the incentive is what, 1 more CP for T10 vs. T20? 1 more CP for the entire season, and a heroic 10-pack instead of 5 tokens? Not worth it.
I always thought 10 packs should be more worthwhile too. I guess that’s the name of the game with RNGesus…
By the time I was a strong enough PVP player to get a 10 pack, the rewards were just ISO to me (for the most part) and kind of a let down. I’d heard/seen the convos of “What did you get in your 10 pack” and wanted so badly to be a part of those discussions. When I finally got there, it was so anticlimactic. This is experience is expounded further by the glory that is DDQ
I believe I’ve earned the 10-packs every season since they were introduced, even when I was strictly a 2* > 3* PVP player – I just had to commit myself to regular PVP grinding.
Doesn’t really matter. I mostly just need ISO. I have a lot of 2s and 3s championed, so it’s fun to win one of those, but other than that, no worries. And sometimes I win a 4* there too. Nice!
I must admit to being pretty disappointed by the 10-packs recently. In the two I earned this season, I had a total of:
16 2 stars (3 of which I could use for championing)
Luke Cage (1)
Mohawk (1)
Squirrel Girl (1)
Captain Marvel (1)
I guess that’s not too far below the curve, but it sure was a disappointment.
Suck it up buttercup. I scored about 4.5k points and finished 12th for the season.
As someone who has seriously pissed off those who control the random number generator I wholeheartedly agree that a 10 pack should feature 1 guaranteed random 4* and 1 “featured” 3*. That way players can chose to save opening them when the 3* character they really want has its turn being featured.
didn’t they recently (like, last season or two) lower the required amount of points to GET that 10 pack in a season?
Like, I could get it with my 94 teams, and still get some useful covers out of it. Now, it’s easier to do so and Championing means that rosters like that are more likely to get covers that help them advance and such.
Even if my first one was all 2*s and it made me like, quit the game for two months.>:(
They didn’t lower the points to get a 10pk. You might be referring to the short Season where the 10pk was I believe 3000 pts. However it is easier to get 10pks because points per match are higher overall.
Regardless, I would still like it if they tried Heroic Vault for a season.
Maybe. I grabbed a top 50 position (#32) with 6703. I’m pretty sure I even missed 1 or 2 events this season and another 3 or 4 where I forgot to play again past the first token at 300.
But I got to this position by becoming casual. Even on the PvP’s where I do try and push, I’ll regularly get to 900 and then do something else and not log back in until the event is long over. Some days I’ll just log in and play DDQ - sometime just the Taco nodes. I don’t think you can really luck your way into a noob season just by timing it right.
You earn 10pks by reaching 4000 pts in the PVP season.
Ha-ha the only reason you see me in PVE is because somehow I’m in the T5 which never happens. Normally I am T50. I think alot of players skipped this event or aren’t playing hard cause the rewards are lacking and its a 7-day PVE full of Ninjas. Anyways, good luck. This sub Sux without survivors and is full of Wolv goon feeding so I’ll likely drop out of T10 soon.
