Conquest Why?

I feel your pain. I struggle to Red box at Hard but that is often because the requirements to hit are so tight since some of the feat points require brand new release characters and teams at times. If you don't have to releases then you have to accept a handicap of 10 or more points. I get it that CG want to push people to get the new toys but its does feel a little off.

Even so, I typically now gun for Gold boxes and just wait. I already know that people will be running around with R9 Strangers as soon as this is over. Its a shame that some things aren't time constrained and not just straight out whale bought but again I do get that there are financials to hit. 

At the end of the day, these characters will ultimately be obtained if not today it will a little later down the months ahead.
