Simple ISO math calculation for upcoming level changes

I'm sure we are all harvesting like never before in anticipation for the new leveling changes and i'm also sure you have never felt more antsy to dump it into your favourite character.

Let's talk numbers for just a minute:

Current 3* max 172k

it's rumoured to be a 30% reduction. That would put the total at 120k

At the current rate, 120k gets you to just over L140, maybe L145, somewhere there.

So here is my question:

"If I put 120k into a character now, will they then be maxed when the level change patch takes place?"

I know nobody can give a definitive answer but I'd like to have a discussion around this. Maybe somebody can shed some light.

I don't think anything will be retroactive. I also think they've implied (maybe they can vague all this up a little more ) that the changes will only affect some early levels. For instance, the cost to bring a 3* to 100 will be lower, but the cost to bring them to 166 from 100 will be the same.

Of course, we have no idea what will really take place since they've not seen fit to share anything other than ISO levelings costs will be lowered in some regard. So, if you can, keep saving. I've gone ahead and leveled 130+ characters with some ISO because I think it unlikely those levels will be adjusted. I could be sorry I did, but then Luke Cage at 166 has been muy helpful.

Bottom line is that none of us can offer anything other than pure speculation about this. Sadly.

Unfortunately they did say in the anouncement that current level will not change, hence why people are stockpiling.

no definitive answer, but I believe that demiurge has said that no retroactive compensation or level shifting will occur.

Basically you ISO will be worth significantly more in the near future, but if you spend it now you spend it at the current prices and that's all you get.

Additionally, they have suggested that like the lower roster slot prices that went into effect last month, this change will only affect the lower levels (ie 40-100 or 70-160 for 4*s) while the price of higher levels remains the same.

Ugh, don't mention roster slots....almost $7 each time I want to add a new character? It really is out of control...

I did the same thing. 166 Cage w/ 5 red has been a heal pack saver for me. Well worth the premium I spent on the iso for a usable max level cage.

To add Hulkbuster from round 6 reward to my roster, I needed to spend 1,050 hp for my 81st slot.
