    From what I can tell by other people posting:


    Regular buff (mags, pun, obw, cstorm)

    Mega buff for each sub (Sentry, ? , ? , ?)

    It looks like nodes with high base value points get less from rubberbanding compared to nodes with less base value points. This is probably to stop people from hitting the 3 essential nodes and easily keep up.

    Ouch. And here I thought _my_ 52 / 53 were bad.

    Good thing you can sit this out, too!

    Ice also said they wanted a way to get people to go the lower path - which I totally ignored last simulator - more rubber banding on those nodes is one way to go.

    You mean the unlocks? They're 76/78 for me.

    I need one blue and one black to finish off my BP, so the prizes are welcome. And I've got nice soft (39 & 43) entry nodes, so my scaling seems to still be ok. This should be a nice, relatively relaxed PVE. Looking forward to it.

    I feel trolled by the all-Widow team, well played, Demiurge, well played.
    Can we expect an all-Wolverine node next sub?

    The scaling in this pve sucks. 170 and 200 entrynodes. I could not compete in the last event eather. This game gets less ans less fun very quickly. I didn't even use spidey and magneto and my scaling is totally messed up.

    My highest levels in Prodigal Sun were ~310

    My entry nodes here are:
    normal - 65/65/65
    Hard - 87/88/87

    So with this rubberbanding can we clear all once per reset and still make a charge for the top?? of course just need top 50 in main to get all covers which is a nice change of pace.

    Some random thing of interest:

    Normal Sim 1 - 143
    Normal Sim 5 - 143
    Hard Sim 1 - 184 (at 80% of its original value)
    Hard Sim 5 - 181 (at 80% of its original value)

    There definitely seems to be something weird going on.

    Is rubberbanding back? Chumps like me want to stand a chance at top ten again.

    I can see them doing it, but it might not be nearly as effective since all the Wolvies share the same colours, while at least you get up to 5 for the 3 Widows.

    Thats bizarre. My highest prodigal sun levels were sitting at 120.

    Gah. 121/128 for my unlocks, even though my highest levels from Prodigal Sun were in the mid-160s. I think this might be the first time I've ever had higher scaling than Phantron. icon_razz.gif

    Could initial scaling be tied to MMR? I was grinding away at Fresh Cut this morning to get to 900, is the only reason I ask. What are other people's Fresh Cut scores looking like?

    1050 in Fresh Cut, and 52/53 for the unlocks.

    My highest Prod son nodes were in the 140s.

    Entry levels here 101/106

    Non-buffed, my max characters are 111 lcap and a 102 punny. This should be a fun exercise in futility.
