Many "collectible mobile games" (TM) have an option to send your characters out on missions. Some bring back resources, others bring new characters and so on.
Considering the huge number of useless or near useless toons in GoH, having a similar option would give at least some of them a reason for existing (and being upgraded). You could send a weak character on a basic mission and get low-level items, or send a 7*, Gear 11 character on a high-level mission for a chance to get a rare item, resources or character shards. This would give players a reason to upgrade a wide range of toons, not just a limited number of "mains". Missions could last from a few minutes to hours (or even days), depending on the difficulty.

Isn't this technically happening when we "SIM" our battles?
Sending somebody on a mission is just simulating what they are doing while we are not watching them.
IMO
True...but so are ships.
I don't care what anyone says, THIS IS AWESOME!!!

But I would rather have playable additions, not just "away missions". Yes you can use less useful toons, but in the context of the game does that really make sense.... These are holotable battles, in a "gambling" or sports bar type setup.... what missions would they do?
The more fitting solution would be more heist type events, but for gear or even mods, or something like that. This could also be geared towards the underused factions to keep with your less used toon idea.
Again I like it just not sure it fits in this scenario.

I'd LOVE for there to be other heist/Yoda/EP style events though for mods or even gear. And yeah, let's use some other factions. As long as they are somehow rotating so that folks have a reason to build the faction rather than just getting hosed up front and never seeing it again. As long as it is based on the tournament system, I'm all for it. Even through I realize I'll likely end up with furnace salvage rather than stun cuffs. Any extra chance is worth it!
Yeah, and you could use your weaker toons in manual battles to farm the easier nodes and vice versa for the rewards you need... waitaminute, you just ruined all the fun in the OPs idea!
Bumped for genius.
Personally I would like QGJ to go in a mission and bring back from Gin, Vodka, plump tomatoes and some Brie
