    Only a few minutes left in the event, so it probably won't fill in time.

    Slice 5 up to 206

    One clear puts you at about 26th (actually joint 9th).
    Usual faces there from the Hulk and previous PvE, which means heavy grinders.
    Top 10 may actually properly push this time.

    OK after the start of the very last sub, the top 10 is full of motivated player! icon_e_biggrin.gif

    But only 135 players currently in the bracket means an easy top 150 and a 3* icon_bullseye.png people! icon_e_wink.gif

    Slice 5 up to 458.
    One clear takes you into top 50, you can do 2 full clears and then grind till the end before the sub closes and easily stay in there. That is of course if your scaling stays within manageable levels, it's clear the difficulty will prevent the less hardcore from doing that.
  • Slice 3 vets won't even come close to filling. Under 250 after the second sub. Anyone waiting for it will need to find another slice.

    I'm still confused about WHY people / we do this. lol

    What's the benefit, again?

    The progression rewards? The placement rewards? Both?

    Also........when doing this and placing say......Top 50, doesn't that mean your scaling will start to dramatically rise? Or does your actual number placement have no impact?

    I do it because I only play at certain times, so better to check and not end up in an impossible position.

    If it's just progression then just start at the beginning, you'll pick up more tokens. For placing it just means you can spend less time grinding because you need to grind anyway once you join a slice. In terms of scaling, if anything starting at the beginning should affect you more as you are completing more matches.... Though no-one knows how they calculate scaling.

    Slice 5 up to 667,

    It's only way to have pause in game. Day in and out grind 7 days/week burns me out. Finish old PvE, take a day break, look up forums to join still winnable bracket. And if you enter final partial bracket you might only compete against 250 people instead of usual 1000. Although it's hard to tell how many people in first filled brackets join when they see announcement and don't really play much anyway.

    Thank you! Holiday weekend = family time = can't play much.
    Please keep us posted. I will either get a fresh slice 4/5 or not play it...

    Damn, early onset dementia. Sorry, post corrected, it was ET4 (now at 944).
