You can spend HP to reset the vault, which replaces all the covers. Maybe you’ll get lucky and only have to reset it once to get the black Vulture cover, but it might take resetting it several times to get black.
Once the black is in there, it’s a matter of buying 40 packs to empty out the vault. Don’t have the HP stored up to do all of that? Buy a Stark. And that’s how you spend money to get the black cover.
I always found it a little annoying how in new character events the individual reward for top 100 and the alliance reward for top 100 are always the same color. Why not make it a bit more fun and make it so they are different and the character becomes more usable.
My 0-1-3 Vulture (& 1-2-3 Sandman) would agree. My 3-5-3 4* R&G also can’t get max-covered soon enough. Edit: Forgot to mention that my Vulture would go to 0-1-4 if I were to get the blue progression cover from his pvp event today. Yikes.
Mine is 0/1/4. No real worries, I hoarded to maximize returns on all the other magic 12 and have them all done. So when I finally draw that fifth blue I’ll just hoard for a season and pull everything at once just before Blade leaves packs. Keeping some CP in reserve just in case.
The 900 reward in PvP was blue as well?! That seems really, really dumb. So now I have a 0/1/5 Vulture.
The color choices for new character rewards haven’t always been this stupid. My Sandman is a relatively balanced 3/4/3. What the heck happened with Vulture?
