    Same issue here and I went from 6th to 50th even though I finished in less than 30 minutes with essential clears. I'm 250 points behind the group
    SCL 7 - Not sure which slice or how to check but that makes this event discouraging to play

    This isn’t only Slice 5...I’m in the latest bracket in the event. I’m SC7 and I got 11556 when I finished in 35 mins and a bunch of people have 11806.

    is there a loner 1time mission that is only appearing for some people?

    Hi Everyone. That's certainly peculiar that there seem to be less points being awarded. I'll pass this along to the developers to see if they know what's going on.

    What I can tell you guys is keep SS of the whole event.  Track your progression. You will need to show them what you are missing from this including the end of the event. I did this for the missing points in door 1 of Strange Sights PVE.  Still waiting on an answer, but I have all the data to show what happened.

    I'm also in slice 5, CL8. 13066 (for 4 clears), is that normal or am I missing a node?

    "Hmm if I stay in 7 then I could get the Jean cover and probably a top 20 finish or I could drop to 6 and have a good shot at a top 2 finish for four covers." Currently 400 pts behind 20 people after being the third person to finish opening clears. What a joke.

    My reasoning exactly, wanted the Jean cover so chose CL7 over CL6. Now stuck with a bugged score that will make it impossible to score T10.

    it's a new feature, if you finish the opening clear really fast you lose points in order to give everyone in the bracket a fair chance to place.

    I'm not certain that's happening here because I got my point as 6th and the 5 ahead of me had the 250 more points before it got the 11556

    Well, at least you have the Jean cover to look forward to.

    You aren’t missing anything. Something is wrong and scores don’t match

    Agreed. Just in case

    The good thing is that someone posted a perfect how-to-thread to fix a deficit in PVE points earlier this morning.

    I’m not tapping lol. No time for that.

    Could you direct the thread beyonderbub? Not sure where to look for that. I honestly thought players were cheating - as if someone found a way to max all points past 4 clears - but too many had the same points which would make it moot

    I was in the opposite boat. Finished at 11806 in SCL7 and was weirded out to find myself at #1. Usually finish at 2-3 because of whales. Even weirder in a new release event. Was freaked out that I accidentally did a 5th node and effed up. #2 and 3 were 100 points behind me.

    I was 220 points short in slice 4. I ended up doing 2 more hits on the yellow node to try to make it up a little

    Could it possibly be a discrepancy with the 5* point values? A bug since they've been reduced in SCL 7. Once I dismissed foul play I assumed maybe a mission still awarded full points 1 time on a 5th play through

    @Gronk Smash - I was referring to the tapping thread in general as a way to make up for the missing points. Hopefully CS will recognize this situation for the glitch it is and compensate or adjust scores. But since we are coming up on the weekend, you may not hear from CS until it is too late
