Smudge

EDIT: provided more info, including character details

I have a touch more data than that, but I stopped after the main track was done on sub 1. I'll try to motivate myself to help you out with a bit more if I can stomach it.

(Is it bad that my motivation to trudge through this is dictated more by the difficulty than it is by the fact that this is finals week?)

Roster: Top 5
1) 454 - Phoenix
2) 450 - Surfer
3) 435 - OML

5) 291 - Star-Lord

Main Node Levels (Wilderness Survival):
Sim 1 = 100
Sim 2 = 43
Sim 3 = 55
Sim 4 = 70
Sim 5 = 89
Sim 6 = 112

Sim 11 = 310
Sim 12 = 453
Sim 13 = 456
Sim 14 = 459

Main Node Levels (Alpine Tactics):
Sim 15 = 461
Sim 16 = 464
Sim 17 = 467
Sim 18 = 470
Sim 19 = 473
Sim 20 = 476

Sim 22 = 482
Sim 23 = 485
Sim 24 = 488
Sim 25 = 491
Sim 26 = 494
Sim 27 = 496
Sim 28 = 499 (can't believe I eventually beat this node)

Main Node Levels (Global Domination):
Sim 29 = 502
Sim 30 = 505
Sim 31 = 508
Sim 32 = 511
Sim 33 = 514
Sim 34 = 517

Sim 38 = 531
Sim 39 = 534
Sim 40 = 538
Sim 41 = 542
Sim 42 = 545

The pattern becomes pretty clear as of Sim node 12. Levels just ease up approximately 3 at a time since then.

Just so it's clear this gauntlet's scaling goes well beyond what my roster can handle. Many of my wins come from lucky boards and using 1 if not 2 MBW TU stuns to survive. Characters like 1* Storm or Mohawk consistently defeat my team with a single casting of her black because it deals around 8000-9000 a turn before match damage or other skills. I haven't even tried any of the branching nodes yet because of the resources and difficulty required just to win with my best team of 3 (SW/OML/Phoenix).

Doesn't scaling consider boosted characters too? People should be including the boosted levels in their top 5.

Wow. I remember when the max scaling on Gauntlet was around 350. Battles were tough but reasonable. You felt a sense of accomplishment that you finally had a roster good enough to make it all the way.

But this shows that if you have two champed 5*s, then you need to fight battles at level 500. No thank, you.

It takes a lot of effort to champion 5*s (and a ton of luck). Where is the pay-off?

Vhailorx

Sorry aesth,

I have already started the event so I can no longer offer clean data for the first run of all nodes. But from memory, it appears my scaling was just slightly below yours.

My node 15 started at 329; and my node 29 started at 370.

My roster is also noticeably weaker than yours in terms of levels. I do have several undercovered 4* due to my iso shortage, so if this is the new scaling that counts covers and levels, my roster may suffer.

My top 5 are:

IMHB @ 280
Xfw @ 276
Xpool @ 272
4* thor @ 271
Elektra @ 260-something (boosted)
Phoenix @ 255 (2/2/2)

thesamuraipig

What's really dragging me down is how many times they're sticking Wolvie and Loki in these subs. Luckily, I've been playing with other options and squeaking by but man, this is tough. I usually love Gauntlet but this seems pretty crazy. And some of these overpowered team combinations are insane. One hit from KK kills the team after a green cascade on the first turn? Awesome. Praying for lucky boards.

Characters:
1. 325 OML 2/2/2
2. 271 XFW
3. 271 Loki (boosted) max cover
4. 270 LThor max cover
