Anderson Sub missions

It's 8 hours after you first did them. I'm not sure what happens if you did it once and then waited some time before doing it a second time. Something will reset after 8 hours, but I'm not sure if it's the first stack (worth double the base point of the second stack) or the second stack.

The points stack (which only goes to 2 this time round) increases by one 8 hours after you deplete it by one. So you'll have two stacks back (full points then half points) 8 hours after you completed the second one. The first one comes back independently 8 hours after you completed the first, but if you did both that only brings you back to half value.

The thing you need to watch for there is that if you do your first refresh a bit early, you'll end up getting two half-value completions instead of one half and one full. Easier to do than it sounds if you don't play with a stopwatch and record your minute of completion in a spreadsheet, especially given rubber banding and client/server desync cause the displayed point values to flit all over the place. I did one last round with a displayed value of 108 and it gave me 30-odd, which was interesting.

I don't think running one-pointers has any impact on stack refreshes, but it's not an area I've felt much need to explore, especially with the difficulty boosts on this event. Any missed 500 ISOs I just have a go at if I have any time left at the end and don't worry about beyond that. I'm 90% sure you at least often get ISO faster from tournaments or SHIELD Training (70, 70, 140, 70, 140 vs 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 500), in any case.

Still only 1 point each..

Have you relogged or done a quick Prologue mission? The displayed value gets out of date. Otherwise, either you've mistaken the elapsed time or it's a bug, since it seems to be on an 8-hour cycle for everyone else. Some have been squeezing a fourth refresh out of it, so it must be.

You're forgetting tokens (100ISO) and 100ISO rewards.

125 ISO for tokens if you're really lucky! True enough. My entry-level Maggia goons have 9999 HP and spit two strike tiles for over 500 each now, though, so lv100+ Punishers are looking less crunchy.

It does. I accidentally hit a stack too early, ended up with 1pt for the second try, and it's now stuck at 1 long past the reset time. It's definitely something to be careful of, as getting 15 + 1 is a lot worse than getting 30 + 15.
