Did anyone else see a massive scaling spike in the 2* essential node from one sub to the next? Someone seems to have flipped the switch between subs.

    Mine is starting at level 198. About 150 levels higher than the last sub.

    Heck yea! Mine went up something like 270 levels. Glad you posted this, was wondering what happened. Last sub was in the 60s or 70s now....

    Level 339 after the initial 4 clears. Crazy!

    Mine spiked as well, buy the crazy thing to me is my 4* essential being easier than node VI.

    The scaling for the war machine node has matched that of node V and node VI adding 30 levels above that.

    Wow.
    Scaling breaking between events: yeah, used to that. Last 4 events have been 20 levels higher than the ones before.
    Scaling breaking between subs in events: That's new.

    Seriously: If your code requires manual babysitting constantly to prevent something breaking, it's time for a rewrite.

    Also seriously: given how much **** gets broken for no apparent reason, you'd really trust them to redo massive amounts of code from scratch?

    Scaling has been off for a few events now. The final node is back to being Red (Hard) for me after the 4th clear, after that was "fixed" a month or so ago. The fix to lower the scaling on the 2* essential does seem to have reverted, too.

    Happened to me, too! Hope they fix this. At least I am maxed on Hawkguy.

    Came to the forum for that. Even with a 1 cover hawkeye lv. 15 (literally 1/0/0) my entry lv is 335. I'm sure it's just a bug and will be corrected for next sub.
    Still overall over scaled.

    Sad state of affairs this thread has existed 10+ hours in normal business hours and not even an official acknowledgement.

    Sad also that that's no surprise at all.

    My bad,I started a new thread and didn't notice this one.yeah two star essential went from a max of level 90,to an oh so fun level 399 for Russia mission.i guess they thought we didn't need that extra easy node after all.

    Scaling on the 2* essential node in ISO-8 Brotherhood seems to have skyrocketed between subs. Is this intended?

    Hmm - it doesn't seem to be universal. My node went from 52/53/53 to 63/64/64.

    Is this at least being looked at?
    If it's intended behaviour, tell us at least.

    Good news: 5th sub 2-star essential node is back to normal scaling

    Bad news: Weekly boosted characters are not boosted in this sub. Not kidding. Champed rulk is just level 270 in this one.

    I don't even... wow.
    So each sub is treated as an individual event and has to be hand-crafted.
    Including the boosted list.
    Just wow.
