    I like community scaling more than personal scaling. If you're a high level player, you have a better chance. But it means some scrub team with low personal scaling won't steal your chance at a character/reward like what happened with Oscorp Heroic.

    That's a good point, but it also screws over people like me in other timezones (I'm in Australia) who can't really do anything till we're on our way home from work in about about 6 hours. What are the levels going to be like then?

    I'm lacking a Loki to play some of the missions in Simulation and I was wondering if my chances of getting one are better if I try the Diabolical or the Simulator pack?

    Sure, but if you want some high points stuff you can do and the filthy scrubs can't to ensure they don't make off with your Betsies, remind me again why we needed dynamic scaling to begin with? That's how this stuff always worked.

    I realize it wasn't your idea, mind.

    @faustianpact: Diabolical pack (not pull) guarantees one of each, if you want to spend that much.

    Sorry, I meant (singular) pull! Looking to spend as little (if possible) as I can.

    In that case, no one really knows. The chance of getting a Loki off any single pull isn't very good. Come to think of it, though, the Highly Trained pack guarantees a Loki atm and is cheaper than a Diabolical pack. If you want guaranteed, I'm afraid you need to cough up the big bucks. You could always just do a Highly Trained pull, at least they're on a cheapish daily. You can never have too many Captain Americas.

    Haha, the RNG gods must be laughing at me; I did 3 Diabolical pulls and got all Ragnorok. I guess it's not in the cards for me to get Loki.

    Should've just bought the 5-pack if you were going to buy 3 singles

    So... has a refresh hit yet? I think it's been 8 hours since the start of the event. If it hasn't, then I think we just confirmed 12 hour refresh cycles!

    So. Has anyone tried losing in missions to bring the levels down yet? No idea if it'll work, what with the community scaling and all, but it's worth finding out, right?
    In fact, I'll go try that right now.

    Haven't done any of the missions yet.

    On one accounts Prep 01 enemies are lv 7-8 and Prep 02 enemies are lv 24-25
    On another account, Prep 01 enemies are lv1 and Prep 02 enemies are lv 13-14.

    On top of community scaling, is there some MMR factor, too?
    Again, I haven't started this event in either account.

    Ok, I just retreated about 25 times and there was no change in levels. So I'll tentatively say this does not work.
    I think it's good, actually, that you can't artificially lower the difficulty.

    They end when the simulator token sale ends at the store page.

    I've gotten like 4 purples from standard tokens. Pretty ssure he's the most common villain in them.

    Don't bother with the diabolicals.

    Busy work day means I can't grind these events at all lol. I've done each mission once and a couple twice.
