Cosmic Chaos wave node in sub 1 requires 4 clears for timer [Devs Aware]

bluewolf

Normally, the wave nodes in the game have the following characteristics:

1.  4 node rewards
2.  2 clears at open starts the 24 hour timer
3.  If you are playing optimally, then, you come near the end of the sub (in a 24 hour sub) and clear 3 more times, the first two times giving node rewards, the last time for points only.

The wave node in sub 1 of the new Cosmic Chaos event requires 4 clears (like all standard non-wave nodes, with multiple rewards) to start the 24 hour timer, at which point you have collected all the rewards.  So coming back at the end will give you more points for clears, but no rewards.

This appears to be a bug, or an unannounced change in wave node reward design and timer behavior.

@bluewolf I just spoke with the team, and it does seem to be a bug. Thanks for the heads up!
