Hello all,
Here's word from Demiurge on incoming updates to Placement Rewards in Story events.
Starting in the Story event Iso-8 Brotherhood (and continuing in the next Simulator Challenge, etc.), Placement Rewards will be updated. Below is a table outlining the changes for 7-day events. (Iso-8 and Hero Points will be half these values in 3 and 4-day events.)
IceIX edit: Iso-8 Brotherhood is a hybrid of this structure and a new character release. The currently displayed rewards in Iso-8 are correct.
Story Event Placement Rewards
Top 1 - 3 4-Star covers + 3000 Iso-8 and 100 Hero Points
Top 5 - 2 4-Star covers + 3000 Iso-8 and 100 Hero Points
Top 10 - 1 4-Star cover + 3000 Iso-8 and 100 Hero Points
Top 20 - 3 3-Star covers + 3000 Iso-8 and 100 Hero Points
Top 50 - 3 3-Star covers + 2500 Iso-8 and 100 Hero Points
Top 100 - 2 3-Star covers + 2000 Iso-8 and 50 Hero Points
Top 200 - 1 3-Star cover + 1500 Iso-8 and 50 Hero Points
Top 300 and below no change.
For reference, old rewards are:
Top 1-2 - 1 4-Star cover + 3000 Iso-8 and 100 Hero Points
Top 10 - 3 3-Star covers + 3000 Iso-8 and 100 Hero Points
Top 20 - 2 3-Star covers + 3000 Iso-8 and 100 Hero Points
Top 50 - 2 3-Star covers + 2500 Iso-8 and 100 Hero Points
Top 100 - 1 3-Star covers + 2000 Iso-8 and 50 Hero Points
Top 150 - 1 3-Star covers + 1500 Iso-8 and 50 Hero Points
Top 200 - 1 2-Star cover + 1500 Iso-8 and 50 Hero Points
Top 300 - 1 2-star cover + 1000 Iso-8 and 25 Hero Points
So overall, more 4*s for T10 instead of 1 cover for T1-2. More 3*s out to T200, with 2*s relegated to T300 areas.
We hope you enjoy the changes and thanks for your continued feedback!

Since the in-game rewards display hasn't updated yet, I'll ask here: How does this apply to a new character release like the one running now?0
-
Wait, so now in ISO-8 for top 10 you get 1 cover of Miles instead of 3?0
-
3 4☆ covers for 1st? Yeah, that's balanced0
-
Wait, so now for the release of Miles you have to make top 10 instead of top 100 to get a cover? What?! Are you kidding?!0

I'm not following ... probably because you say it is starting with current 4* release PVE... how does this look with a 4* release 7 day reward?
Is this on top of the current reward structure we are seeing?
EDIT: Ok, Iso-8 is displayed already with increased rewards...
EDIT 2: Ok, Iso-8 does not reflect these changes... or does it? I'm confused. Top 10 look like they have the extra covers... but the rest doesn't appear to have changed... what a totally confusing and ill timed announcement that is clear as mud.
You increased standard PVE rewards by adding the 4* covers to top 10. Ok... so no change for me, really.0 -
Pve still needs a 4☆ progression cover0

As good as these changes are this is much more needed to get high level players to play PvE regularly.0 -
PvE still needs to stop making players grind for hours on a timed schedule for competitive placement. It's the gaming equivalent of one of those endurance contests where the last person touching a car gets to keep it.0

But the currently displayed reward tiers are exactly the same as every other recent 4* release since you went to a top 2/10/20/100/150 structure. So what's the new structure for new releases? This can't be it, because there's no 3* for placing 151-200.0 -
I appreciate that you're making 4^s more accessible... to people who've soft-capped their rosters. Any word on when you're going to institute the changes to scaling that you said would stop giving these people an undue advantage?0
-
I'm not going to look a gift horse in the mouth, and this is appreciated.... but, respectfully, I think you're all missing the forest for the trees here.
You're clearly moving towards having multiple 5*s be the "endgame" tier of progression/achievement here. You respectfully can deny that all you want, and maybe you truly believe that 5*s are unique and rare -- but legendary tokens are simply too available for 5*s to be considered elite and rare.
You have a gaping, enormous hole in 3* level gameplay in the game. If you really want to fill that, you replace, in this structure, the 4* cover(s) with legendary token(s), and award 4*s instead of 3*s to the top 200. ISO is your progression gate in this game, and I struggle to see why you guys continue to effectively double-gate an increasingly large segment of the game population.0 -
So those are ADDED rewards. As in a bonus on top of what I would normally get? For example, I would get a 4* new release PLUS three 3* covers for a top 20 finish?0
-
A nice start. Now can PVP get revamped rewards as well, including alliance 4* covers?0

Does this apply to all PvEs or just the non-character intro events. Because this sucks, worse than before. You thought it was hard to progress before, now you have to be first to get all 3 covers? It seems like every decision to make the game better just makes it worse.0

That is business as usual. Originally a 4* release was
First place: 3 covers plus an extra of the top cover
2-5th place: 3 covers
6-10th place: 2 covers
11-50th place: 1 cover
51-150th place: 3* booby prize
Then they expanded the rewards by doubling the number of people who get each one. So it's top 2 for four covers instead of first place only, top 10 for three covers instead of top 5, top 20 for two instead of top 10, and top 100 for one cover instead of top 50. That's exactly the structure I'm seeing for Miles. Nothing changed.0 -
Updated the OP with a more readable chart and the old one for reference.
So overall, more 4*s for T10 instead of 1 cover for T1-2. More 3*s out to T200, with 2*s relegated to T300 areas.0 -
