    a second SCL test at the same time as release.

    that is going to be fun.

    here's hoping the new character sucks.
    Peace, my child, and think thee now upon this mantra:
    "Good when boosted. Pairs well with Starlord."

    a lot of the speculation has been leaning towards it being a 2099 Spiderman, so there's a distinct possibility of disappointment  :D

    A new release during a scaling test...well that's one way to.get people not drop down to lower clearance levels.

    It appears that the current Mystique PVP is not listed in the OP (the other past events are shown inside the spoiler tags).

    Ugh. My Danny Rand is sitting at 5-2-1. I must have thrown away six or seven blue covers by now. Just threw another one away yesterday.

    Yep. 
    Less than 24 hours before S1 starts, too late to get clarification on unclear points (and there will be those) from the devs because that will take 24 hours with the roundabout way they feed info to Brigby.

    In the meantime, Infos have been given out by Anthony himself on Discord.
    On Monday.

    Working as intended.

    Can anyone share any of this info?  Some details would be nice.  Question 1 is whether prior test levels were intended to cap where they did, or if there was an error.  And then where they should scale to this time.

    Starting levels set by RNG.
    Them not scaling up 25 but 15 between clears was an error.
    So expect +40 levels this time, from a RNG starting point.

    I don't know why they feel the need to throw any RNG into this.  Just set them 100% static.  Easier to maintain and support and would take guess work out for us.  Can we have at least one feature in the game that doesn't use RNG?

    Take it with a grain of salt until we get "official" Infos a few hours before s1 starts.

    Hi Everyone. There will be no changes to the updated difficulty portion of the event. Players will experience the event in the same way they did with Unstable Iso-8.

     @Brigby - does this include the 323 level max?

    It.makes zero sense to run another test and not have zero changes to its parameters ****.

    new character released in the upcoming pve with the scl based scaling...so, why would anyone that can handle scl 8 not want to drop to scl 7 and do all their clears in record time?   the progression and placement rewards are marginal between the two scl levels.
