What excites you more as a STT fan - Honor Sale or Portal Update?

I look forward to the portal update more as there is less of a chance of getting nothing out out beholds and begolds except for honor.

Considering the state of your roster, this makes total sense. For myself, it's the honor sale. It's the ice cream reward for all the lima bean honor-grinding I do during events.
Speaking of... is it time for a portal update yet?

I save my portals for honor sales too. That way I earn the extra honor for another cite.
There is no honor in partaking of honor sales each week; one must limit oneself to only buy honor sales when there is honor involved.
I dread the update of the pool with crew retrieval.
It will get harder to get the crew you want with every portal update.
I think they realized that players waiting 6m to spend honor isn't good. But players aren't going to start spending outside of a sale. So now they're offering the sale more often.
If they start offering a sale every 3m instead of every 6m it doesn't change what you can buy, it just means that you buy half as much twice as often and get to use half the cites 3m sooner.
Ppl dumped honor on the cite sale a few weeks ago, now they can re-up honor and get more cotes. Just seemz like a cash grab to me.
FYI - I am down to <25 golds left to acquire.
It would be really nice to have a portal update RIGHT BEFORE an honor sale... Just sayin'
Nothing else really feels special anymore. Honor hall crew are statistically indistinguishable from crew you can win each week in events. New gauntlet exclusives and their half dozen 65% crit sets are made to be oppressive and the overall gauntlet experience is worse for it.
After crew retrieval, definitely the portal updates as they bring new crew that can be retrieved (especially ones who debuted in packs...).
