Wow, I neglected to redo the main bracket because I thought those affect your sub rubberband, so I'm getting #1 in both of my sub bracket but #300 overall by the time I realized they're not (some of my missions in sub got to a point where there was no rubberband while the main bracket mission were still at X10). Good thing I don't need anything from the main bracket.

The levels went way down and all that did was force me to do every mission down to 0 to get my first place. Would rather they stay at 230.

Lol phantron, we`re in the same bracket. Do you see me?

Yeah I've barely done the main bracket ones so I'm only in the 100s instead of higher. Finishing top 5 in both subs.

EDIT: Nevermind, looks I got bumped from 5th place in Nevada with <1m

Top 5 + Top 200 in subs, and at 240 overall with just two refreshes. That's a reasonable pace for me, and picking up 3 tokens is a nice bonus. Those main screen missions really help me feel like I don't have to grind the subs as hard to keep up for 3 Thor covers.

dammit... though i have it... some1 beat me by merely 20 point in a sub... or else is top 5 for both sub
but still i glab with my position overall at top 100... even didnt get xforce i wan the 3 gold star thor xD

Unknown

Hmm, I'm at at 17k even though I did both subs and grinded, but only did 1 cycle.

The top score is around 30k. I guess this means that I would have to do at least 2x 8hr cycle grind if I want the top score. Rubberbanding is seriously toned down.

That's the pace I'm doing. Top 20 in both subs but I never grounded any node down to 1. Just want top 1k with 2 cycles per sub and so far about 250ish place too.

Yeah saw a Microtom and figure that was you. I ended up finishing 1/2, the guy who beat me was the overall bracket leader I think. My overall bracket placement is incredibly sad because I thought not doing the main mission gets me more points.

arrh... bad luck... 2 purple haweye and 1 red thor pulled from the token
hoping to get as least a panther or hulk... well hoping for better luck next token pull in the next sub

A very significant portion of the points are in the main missions now. I was like #300 overall and 6K behind the overall leader when I was #1 on both of my sub brackets (eventually fell to #2 on one but you get the idea).

Anyone else get standard tokens instead of heroic from this event?

Shhhhh.

So grinding main mission nodes doesn't affect sub mission rubberbanding? I seem to remember this happening in another event, was it Thick as Thieves? Also, do main mission nodes have the same refresh time as subs?

I made the mistake of going for both subs.

I finished top 20 in both. Must have been pushed out of the last second in both since I was 5 and 4 with <1m.

Oh well. Wanted the ISO/HP more than the tokens.

290 overall now without doing any of the new main missions.

I managed to finish top 5 in both subs, although going to miss the next 3/4 subs, hopefully won't dent my chances of finishing top 1000 at least... and hoping that when I get back my mobs isn't just a wall of 230's.
Just starting to remember how much hard work the hulk event is.

They are not directly related. I have main story missions at the X10 modifier while I was getting 0 rubberband on the sub. Now, as you do sub brackets your main bracket score will also go up more, so if you're doing something that's worth a lot in a sub bracket (say 1000), you will see your main bracket rubberband modifier go down as well, but that's because you have 1000 more points in the main bracket.

I just realized why I never place well in hulk overall events. The sub rewards are so yummy that I totally lose sight of the big picture. I finished top 100 in both subs and am 2000 iso, 100 HP and 2 event tokens richer. However, overall I am like 6000. Bah... I need to do those main missions to get the big points before messing around on the subs next time. Anyway... Onto the next one!

Made the same mistake. Won't do that again.

These event tokens don't have a chance at pulling Hulk correct?

The sub-event rewards are pretty decent. I figure I can get 100-200 HP per day, which is much appreciated.

Quick question are the gatekeeper missions for the subevents 230 for everyone? This seems excessive especially to unlock the "easy" submission group.
