    As I understand it atm the central node resets 8 hours after you play it (win or lose), but it can be reopened by beating a sentry node (so 5 times), and these sentry nodes reset every 8 hours. For me the event started at 6 pm and the sentry nodes reset at 6 pm, 2 am and 10 am. Sorry if someone already posted this earlier, didn't have the time to read all posts up to this one.

    Edit: And after beating a round all nodes are reset, both the central Ultron node and the sentry nodes.

    It looks like Ultron has more HP this time around. Should make it easier for everyone in the alliance to hit progression
    1 75k
    2 150k -> 225k
    3 450k -> 500k
    4 1m -> 1.5m
    5 2m -> 3m
    6 3m -> 5.5m
    7 4.5m -> 11m
    8 6m -> 18m(?)
    TOTAL  17.175M -> 39.8M
    


    Updating and speculating a bit. Round 7 was 144% increase so it wouldn't surprise me if round 8 was 200+%

    Essential nodes refresh every 8 hours regardless of the time you complete it.

    The event started at 12midnight local time for me. Essentials refresh at 0800 hours, 1600 and 2400 hrs regardless of whether i have completed the essentials or not or what time i completed them.

    The Main Ultron node refreshes every 8 hours FROM the time you completed it but it will immediately refresh when you enter the new Round. It does not follow the Essentials refresh time.

  • We hit round 7 this morning: 11 million hit points. Guessing 15 million for Round 8.

    So players could plan rather than guess? .


    I think they just want us to get the full D3 experience...and if aren't clueless and guessing...well then we just aren't doing it their way.

    easy...marc

    How many points do you get for beating Ultron?

  • I wonder if it will even be mathematically possible to beat round 8. The health increase is insane.

    Round 6 had ultron at 5.5 mil health. Round 7 is at 11 mil. If the rate is double the previous amount of health, then round 8 should be 22,000,000. Just a quick back of envelope calculation for round 7. Ultron has 23k health per middle node, requiring roughly 480 hits to wipe out his 11 mil health, or 80 full clears of all the essentials by the alliance. If you have a 20 man alliance, each member able to do a full clear, that's 4 full clears per man. Per 24 hours you could do 3 full clears. So the earliest to clear round 7 is after the first refresh on day 2 of starting round 7. If you start round 7 today, that gives you less than 2 days to hit and clear round 8. It's looking mighty difficult to clear round 8, depending on how much health the 8th round ultron has, and how much health you could take off per hit in his middle node.

    It's funny, Ultron's 11 mil HP now, compared to Ultron's in the first run at this round was 4.5 mil increased by a substantial amount but the points you get for defeating the guy did not change from first run to this run but the time constraint stayed the same. While, everyone in a 20 person alliance should be able to hit the 1 mil prog now compared to the first run, it would seem that there is little chance of any alliance being able to complete all 8 rounds and getting all of the Ultron Prime nodes unlocked.

    Any alliance at Round 8 yet?

    My alliance will be halfway through round 7 in a few hours. It'll still take us another 2 refreshes before we finish Round 7.

    Interested to know what Ultron's health will be in Round 8

    15 million for round 8. If you didn't hit it by noon EST 5/2 and get a full clear in I think its impossible. Once noon hits there will be time for 5 more clears and I don't think you can do 3m a round.

    I expected round 8 to be impossible to clear. I've been telling my alliance mates to not neglect Enemy pve event b/c HB black is the alliance reward cover. Thankfully, D3 is offering it to top 100, rather than top 50. So with some effort from every member in a 20 man alliance, it's possible to get the black cover still.

    Anyone get 6 enemies in the first wave, and 3 in the second in a handful of survival nodes?

    It doesn't happen often, but enough for me to notice. Maybe 85% I get 3 and then 3, 10% I get 4 and 3, 5% I get 6 and then 3.
