Not Reaching Finall Progression Rewards

It seems like these final progression rewards have been far from attainable in most of the pve events for a while.

As I write this, for instance, I really wanted to get the red Patch at 50000 points, have been playing regularly and am #11 over all in my bracket and so it seems like another reward I won't be able to get to since I'm only at 30000.

This has become really frustrating. Is it just me, or have people been getting to these final rewards in other brackets that I'm not seeing?

    And to answer you, no, most people have not been coming anywhere close to the final progression rewards. They (i.e. the devs) have seemed to increase scaling as well as decrease the rubber band effect. What this has done is created an environment where people are not encouraged to grind for more points (which would increase total points and essentially increase available points for everyone). On top of that the rubber band algorithm weakening has made it so that it is harder/impossible to "slingshot" the guys in #1 which also reduces the number of global points available.
