It stays 50 merits+20 Million for a conversion rate. At the moment I'm using the specific IO recipies to pluck out the big spendy ones that I need for my build. Though then again it might be a good idea to grab the really expensive ones, sell those, and buy the expensive ones that way, as I already have the Big Three for Regen/Recovery.

1. If you wait you will have to wait 2 days. You can only convert for 1 merit per day.|

Question 1: Am I better off waiting until I get 3 more hero merits before I convert? Or no difference? Question 2: The 20 million inf. fee for upconverting, does that go up by 20 million for each 50 hero merits I convert ... or does the one fee apply to all merits I convert? Question 3: Is the 20 million fee for converting a one time/first time fee? Or do you get charged each time you up convert? And lastly -- Question 4: I see you can get the recipes you want for 1 or 2 A-merits each. Or you can get 5 random drops for 1 A-merit. Are you going with the specifics or the random, and why? Also, what kinds of drops are you finding in the random pool? How good are they? And do they exclude the drops you specifically can buy? Any and all information appreciated. |
2. it is a per conversation fee. It does not increase, but you have to pay it each time.

4. If you d the rolls they will all be at your level or the highest level the recipe can support. If you pick you can choose the exact level you want. This makes the decision for me. If I care about the level, I pick, otherwise I roll.

One clarification:
Your FIRST "alignment reinforcement" (with the 10 tips and the morality mission) gives you 50 reward merits. Your SECOND time through gives you an alignment merit directly [you don't get reward merits and buy the AM].
You can still get merits from other sources and pay to convert them into AMs.
One other note: there's two timers: one to GET AM's and a timer to SPEND AM's.

So you think you're a hero, huh.

I missed part of this question, sorry. On the randoms it is exactly the same as what you used to get from task force completion, and still get from a random Reward Merit roll. This is typically called "Pool C". They are exactly the same as the ones you can pick, but they exclude a lot of the crap that drops on kills.|

The list is here on Paragon Wiki.
I personally have been picking because I need about 18 specific pool C's at specific levels (35 and 40) that are not on the market and if I rolled I'd only get level 50. So until I get all of them filled, I'll be picking. Once I'm done, it will be 100% rolls.
