X-Men FAQ

Share:

The Customer Support X-Men First Class Event FAQ is finally here. I wonder why they seem to wait to post these things as they are of no use once the players figure the events out on our own. Once again, there are a few errors. It says collect up to 4 mastery items (highlighted in yellow). We only collect one and the stats change if we gain higher mastery. They should explain that better so players don't think that they can own 4 Magneto's Helmets. They mixed up the boosts in the descriptions and they state that the boosts aren't tradable. They appear tradable to me as you can see them on my wishlist and Mike Nestor sent me one of each.

The rest of the errors are highlighted in red and are spelling and grammar errors. I know I make those all the time but I don't get paid to do this. Official documents should at least be looked over once before they are published. We do find out that the event ends on the afternoon of June 2nd so that information is appreciated.
