Why are sandman and carnage being offered in HFH

seems like a strange choice, wonder if this is related to the new alliance event :thinking:

3

Am I correct in assuming that the first perk is completely useless in all events except The Simulator and Prodigal Sun (which they never run anymore)? It only works against heroes and I believe these are the only two events where you fight heroes.

4

There’s also Deadpool vs. MPQ and DDQ.

5

I like how it’s Anniversary and the character in question is limited so you won’t even get his covers from tokens for most of the year-- but they still feel the need to make his themed support just as impossible to get as all the others.

Not trying to be negative, just kinda amused at that.

6

Which, of note, includes a fair number of Crash of the Titans missions.

7

At least the support isn’t limited, so there’s a snowball’s chance in hell of getting it down the road.

8

In general, the selected characters in these offers seem pretty random and unrelated to the support or surrounding events. I assume they are using some sort of list and not repeating characters in Support offers until they have all been offered. I also assume no one has tried to put together a list and track that.

9

So this support, which is also given out as the 1st place reward for the season, is the only Support that can be won in a season AND is in tokens. Why is that?

10

100K Red Iso as part of the Carnage offer!

Guess they’ve loosened the Red ISO purse strings a little :slight_smile:

KGB

11

When are more supports going to trickle into the standard support store?

12

I really wish the supports weren’t being handled so. Bloated vaults that have minuscule odds of pulling a token that has minute odds of giving a decent support. Overpriced HfH offers that give upper end tokens that still have no guarantees of being anything useful. Holding the newer supports out of the general tokens (that are minimally available anyway) to force ppl to chase these items thru said vaults and offers…sigh
Guess I’ll just keep ignoring them in general and work on the handful of useful supports ive got with the recent increase in Riso (which is the one bright spot in this situation)

13

There’s a 4/40 or 10% chance of getting Taskmaster’e Sword. Could they be waiting for it to hit 5% before they release it in the wild? That would be 4/80 to hit 5%.

I suppose Rank 3 is an AoE perks due to enemies?

Rank 5 sees an improvement from new generation supports which gives 24% only.

I think the increase could be due to Rank 1 having limited usage (damage Heroes only).

I’m skipping this bundle because Carnage is not my top priority list. The 100,000 Riso is sweet though. 7 such bundles to max out Rank 5 support.

14

Took a daily deal at this, got 1000iso, I think i’m done with this vault lol.

15

I got the master token out of the vault for 100 hp. Proceeded to get 4* korg… meh. Would of definitely preferred a support thats not in the regular support tokens.

The rollout and availability to get supports is so bad. I actually like supports, but it feels like the devs want me to hate them.
