I know I’m not the only one who is sick of these. There is nothing worse than going through a difficult fight only to get these useless rewards. They only work in match 5 situations which don’t happen often and only a few chrcters have match 5 powers. Here are some suggestions to replace them.
Replace with random color or match boosts which are actually useful.
While they aren’t the most useful… I will say that the improvements to match damage and the addition of the 5*'s have given them some use. I did 10,500 damage on a match-3 with 2 blacks and a critical with OML (was also using the damage boosts for black/green and for all matches)
That doesn’t mean they need to be all over the PvE node rewards. Have them drop after battles like every other boost. That’s where they belong. Not in PvE nodes.
I thought it was really strange they replaced one part of the request (we all hate 20 iso) and ignored the other part (we all hate critical boosts). These need to go. I doubt I’ve used my stack of them when I originally picked them up as a newbie.
If we could -sell- boosts for ISO, that would be a different matter.
Not just critical boost, I would like to see the server read what S.H.I.E.L.D. Resupply day # you’re on and globally replace standard tokens in PvE nodes with Heroic Tokens
So if your resupply day # <150 your nodes would contain standard tokens, >150 heroic tokens.
100-250 iso8 is OK, but 250+ iso8 is better, what am saying is I need more ISO8!!
You can count me among those who don’t like Critical Boosts. I’ll equip them in battles where I have certain victory (like facing minions in their 30s) just to be rid of them. 70 ISO–any ISO–is better than Critical Boosts as a reward.
I don’t like them either and only use them very rarely with winfinite, but that isn’t really the point. the point is why is that single boost literally in every. single. node. either set it to give one of each of the various boosts throughout the sub’s nodes or even just let rng decide - they love rng and this makes such little sense…rng is preferred by the playerbase here. that’s pretty telling.
Agree with OP. In fact I do not care what they are replaced with, but maybe just have one as a reward on the initial stage. Other than that ISO please to try and break the drought.
Critical boosts take on an entertaining element when you get a leveled 5*. But I still agree that these boosts should drop after matches and not be part of the list of prizes for pve nodes.
