Bloody Marvel said: Decided to drop down to SCL 7. On a 7 day event I don't want to take any chances. If it'd been a 3 day event I might have considered SCL 8.Max level was 326 in DP vs. MPQ. SCL 8 would potentially have been 74 levels higher.First time playing SCL 7 again since SCL 8 was introduced.
TheIncredibleClick said: I chose 8 the night before and saw the message about increased difficulty the following morning, after the event was already underway. So I was hosed right out of the gate.I'm finding it... interesting. My roster's decent, but after every 250+ battle, one of my heroes is either dead or nearly dead. It's a challenge, all right.Maybe I'm cynical, but it seems the main motivation for the extreme difficulty in events dropping a 4 cover is to make people more unlikely to get that cover, and force them to start buying them outright at 3600 hp a pop instead.
SCL7 or SCL4
Decent placement is an impossibility for me in SCL8, and I'm guessing that t50 will be the best I can hope for in SCL7, but time will tell, so its an easy choice for SCL7 over SCL8 in terms of the effort to reward ratio...
When I don't have time, don't like the event, or don't care much for the 4* progression cover, I'll target SCL4, it still gives progression CP (I think the difference over a 3-4 day event is around 10-12?) but will be trivial in terms of effort and time spent.
