    Pav confirmed, appears to appear in beholds too!

    Wait a minute. Is that from a regular Premium Pull?!?!?

    Because one of these things is very unlike the others.....

    Concerns continue to increase.....

    Opened 48 packs. Didn't look like any new crew to me, but oh well, at least I didn't get a 2* :D:p

    Tickets need to be sent for this or similar issues. So can be addressed.

    Done. B)
  • The odds in the pack description also give it away.

    It appears Elusive Treasures is also affected.

    The "odds" of a 2 🌟 dropping in Premium Packs should be 0.00%. Because the minimum that is supposed to drop is 3 🌟. It clearly says so right on tab for the Pull.

    EDIT: Clearer image added, even though can be seen less clearly on quoted image.

    June 6th, 2022 is the newest card in the portal. Willie Hawkins. Everything before him who is otherwise eligible for the portal should now be in there. Can confirm this includes the whale tier campaign reward of Second Chance Laris.

    Thanks for the clarification. I was figuring the cards in the Elusive Treasures pack were supposed to be in the portal. Just waiting for the day Dread Pirate Q becomes available in crew retrieval…

    Exactly. The idea of "Elusive Treasures" is that it is released BEFORE the Update and the Crew included in it are part of the Update.

    More concerning changes.....

    That would defeat the point of them being...elusive 🤔🤨

    How so? Previously Elusive Treasures were available and then the Portal Update was later. Both were released at the same time this time. And Elusive Treasures is "watered down" with Crew that are in the Portal Update. I got Rittenhouse in both yesterday.

    Elusive treasures have always been watered down. The only guarantee is that if you buy a 10x, you will get one legendary behold including one elusive crew. Everything else is just an increased chance. There is no guarantee of ever getting a 4* elusive crew.

    Yeah. I just realized a minute ago that the reason Rittenhouse was in the Elusive Treasures Behold was because he is in the Portal. I ended up getting a second 🌟 from the 31 Premium Ten Pulls last night. Would kind of be nice if the Elusive Treasures Pulls did have one in each Behold. But, they do not. I did not realize that when they got my cashy folding money yesterday. Knowing it now, they will not get more cashy folding money from me again for that Pack.

    One of the recent ET featured top tier campaign crew that had finished just a few days before the ET came out. How often are there Portal updates & how often are there ET? It doesn't balance out . They feature recent event crew

    It used to be worth it back when you didn't have many golds and purples. And financially it actually worked out if you did buy the 9.99 deal rarely regularly. But there point now for most long term players IMO

    I think part of why this update feels so underwhelming is the pool of newly added 4* crew. Eight of the 23 newly added 4*'s were originally available in either a Galaxy or Galaxy hybrid, which put a 4/4 within reach just for clearing the 130k VP threshold and getting the community rewards. That's a full third. Of the remaining 15/23, only another eight were available in events without community rewards. Between campaigns and midweek objectives, it wasn't hard to rack up that many 4* citations. I prioritized fusing and immortalizing the new 4*'s who weren't in the portal, and I'm sure I'm not alone in that. They were the crew that couldn't drop from a voyage or in a pack, after all. And of the seven pack-only crew, one (Botanist Sulu) was available in the free track of a Campaign. Another (Meditative T'Pol) was in the rank rewards table last weekend.

    So if, like me, you racked up 4/4s from the Galaxy/Hybrid events and cited the ones from Faction & Skirmish events, 2/3 of this pool was already extraneous before it was added. Here's the breakdown (spoiler'd for length):
    Galaxy/Hybrid Crew:
    1. Mournful Elnor
    2. Reunion Raffi
    3. Ensign Taurik
    4. Hippie Kira
    5. Carpenter Street T'Pol
    6. Bat'leth Mariner
    7. USS Titan Bradward Boimler
    8. Lt. JG Picard
    Faction/Skirmish Crew:
    1. Prisoner Spock
    2. Zhaban
    3. Ensign Marie Kaplan
    4. 2024 Raffi
    5. Hippie O'Brien
    6. Mok'bara Sito Jaxa
    7. Lt. Commander MacDougal
    Pack Only Crew:
    1. Keyla Terrana
    2. Rumplestiltskin
    3. Botanist Sulu (see above)
    4. Roy Ritterhouse
    5. Shroomies
    6. Meditative T'Pol
    7. Willie Hawkins

    Keyla Terrana was in an event, as well, already. I finished mine that way. It was the one with people hearing their pets. Only about three new purples are of any use to me. Willie and Rumpie need stars. Roy I missed.

    Ah, yes. I missed Keyla when I was scanning the Wiki page for events. She was in a Galaxy event, at that.

    I think there is something up with the Shroomies, too. (They aren't in the Wiki crew list.) Were they offered in a second pack later on? I have them done and I'm trying to think if I used cites. I don't know why I would off hand.
