I know this is late at this point, but c'mon, people. Do not join a tortodrone level with no sparks! Almost every time I run the level, one person joins who has no sparks, and forgets until they die, and then asks for more. What in the world?! And then they have the gall to ask for a free revive while we're running for our lives from Tortodrones.
Also, if someone makes an ID for you, the least you can do is cough up 2.5k cr. Seriously.
I always equate using up your last spark to basically spending your entire life savings. Why are people so impatient that they don't know when to quit? You can still go to the next floor of an arcade run in you're dead, all you lose is whatever heat you had, any loot you couldn't get to, and your emergency revive. You get better loot in deeper floors anyway!
As for March of the Tortodrones, I wish it would prevent players without full 5* gear from playing it on Elite mode. Then again, the players are the least of that mission's problems...
