Increased number of Vanq tokens

Did devs mention the reason anywhere? To me it looks like a sign of incoming new tier of gear and they want us to gear up faster.

What do you guys think?

Probably because Vanquisher is lower than Invader (tier-wise) and you can get Invader faster nowadays. Vanquisher should've been easier to get ever since Sov came out.

True. The Destro motto is, 'When the going gets tough, quit.' (and log on Order toons)

They probably increased Vang Med drop rate for a few reasons.

Before Sov gear Vanq was completely skippable. I personally skipped over it for invader myself and was confused when returning to play and I was getting vanq meds out of bags instead of invader or Sov. I skipped it because Invader needs 250 ish medallions when vanq requires more that 1K and the price has been lowered since I last looked too! But as it was, Vanq and Invader medallions flowed in a seemingly the same rate, making Vanq require 4 times longer to get than Invader.

So before the recent change, not only could you not skip it but you were rewarded with a pittance of vanqs compared to what you needed to buy a piece. And for some still very weird reason Gold bags seem to give you the same damn piece of Vanq every time.
