My super cool CC build and how to use it.
The rewards were worth it for me at least
OH MOOD
Built a Noir-themed character, tweaked his costume between leveling, did some content I hadn't touched for years...and found some missions I actually never did before (I was so surprised by this, I'm 4 pages into my character select screen and I'm still finding something new).
Thanks, Devs. My 1 humble suggestion is, in addition to perhaps doing this again in the future, have an encore presentation of THIS challenge, with the same prizes, for those couldn't make it this week due to real life commitments. It's just a timing issue.

I have a theory that holding Monster Week and the leveling event during the same week was actually their way of testing the new sorting method, since it guaranteed that people would both switch toons a lot, and add new toons to the mix. Just a theory tho.

I second this!
The rewards are fun and I would have been really disappointed if missed out entirely... RL is RL and doesn't always cooperate with play time.
It was tough for me with limited play time, I usually miss out on the bulk of week long events, and this event was difficult... I even had to cheat my last few levels with level tokens, but I guess that was part of the reason for this event, SALES! lol
My suggestion... with this event being paired with Monster Week... eh... that wasn't ideal... I still need to grind GCR on many characters for endgame gear... now add another to that list!
Maybe if it were a Q-Bonus week instead?
Maybe if Level up tokens were on sale?
Maybe just outright purchase Defender's Training with the power of money like a certain Bruce or Tony would... instead of having to use a new character?
why would they do that when the entire point of the event was that you make a new character? if you want to pay your way after that, you can - 4K zen gets you from 6 to 40 in less than one minute - but you still have to actually MAKE a character for it because that's the entire point

Block timing explained
Would be roughly 30 to 60 hours, give or take. Depends on how quickly they were doing things or if they stood around a lot.
Why?
Because I have an army of characters as it is. Most powersets, every class. I've also got archetypes galore!.
I didn't need NEW character number whatever... but I did need the perks and rewards (because I want more!).
I still have half a dozen sub 30 characters that remain on my roster unfinished... They weren't eligible for the event. I know I'm not "everyone" but if it were "Reach level 40" without the "Created between..." restriction?
I didn't have to MAKE a new one, prior to the event my last new was from April 1... I could have just finished that one... or one of any number I have that aren't 40...
And why not an option to outright buy it? I wonder how many level-up tokens were sold... I know there were TONS in the AH that all sold fairly fast...
We have different key bundles, why not different leveling/reward packages too? Maybe even a Retcon token/ Gold Collector Card bundle? Or maybe even a bundle for Freeform slots (level- up tokens, gear, collector cards, whatever...) Sell some stuff, make some money, and keep the game around longer!
Who knows if we'll ever see it again. (We should, it was a great idea! Bonus was that it was nice seeing players around outside of Cosmics and Alerts! Except in Lemuria... that place was still fairly dead lol)
IF we ever see it again will we have the same week long restriction? (Probably, why not? Most sales last a week too... coincidence?)
I dunno... Nothing wrong with feedback, is there?
In the end I basically ended up taking the character I had bought to lvl 40 and just gave it the costume and powers of an ineligible sub-40, so in effect I got an ineligible toon to level 40 that way.

The trick was to not have kids. x3
Thanks for doing it!

Just in case.
If you have hit 40 with a new character during the event times and didn't get the rewards, please contact customer support and let them know.
You can contact support by pressing esc while in game, pressing the Help button then Request Gm Help.
We have gotten reports players stopped receiving the rewards a few hours before the event ends.
To collect the rewards you need to open the Zen Store and look in the Bonus section. If you're rewards aren't there try logging out and in again. If you still don't see your rewards ask customer support as suggested.
And I will always be @DZPlayer122.

I'm in the same boat, I did the same and hadn't heard back nor have I seen the ticket in "My Tickets". And I've checked the Store -> Bonus tab multiple times. Hoping the week didn't go to waste
That's quite the difference. @.@ Thanks for googling it.

1) They probably have a bunch of tickets to go through
2) At the moment of your post, it was Friday 11PM~. After Friday comes Saturday, and it's frequently followed by Sunday. This is generally known as a "weekend" (pronounced /ˈwiˌkɛnd/ )
3) It's Easter weekend
So I would at least wait till Monday's work hours before grabbing the torch and pitchfork

The event was pretty good IMHO. I hope it comes around again.

Me too, can't check any tickets submitted (in game at least, I found them in the support page, though, and response was that they planned to send out rewards by nest week.
EIDT: I just submitted one, since I kept forgetting to do that.

Stop forgetting to remember! Remember to stop forgetting.

Have you checked if you have the emote? You should just get it, no Zen store involvement. It'll be with the other dance emotes.

Not sure about the perk, but I was in the same position as far as the emotes. It sounds weird, but type in just "/e dance" in the chat bar and then start tabbing up and down in the available options with the up or down arrow on your keyboard.
I'm not sure why, but when I first tried typing in dance emotes to check if they'd been unlocked both today and yesterday, it didn't show up and I thought it hadn't unlocked. But just now as soon as I started running through the options with the up and down keys the emotes showed up for me. And I just confirmed they showed up for another character as well.

You have to manually claim the perk on each character
The only thing I can think of out of the ordinary is that I didn't create a fresh costume. I loaded a costume I'd built for a Nem when making the character.
Yes I submitted a ticket. No I haven't received a response.
