I still think they lower point vaule by alot.. because i do progress always.. and close to double it most event. 5k? On sub one? You're doing something very wrong then. I finished sub 1 with 15k

Even at a really low 10% increase per sub you would hit 70k if you follow three clears per sub. Factor in grinding and greater than 15% increases and there should be no problem. If you don't have a particular essential or are getting tanked in the hard nodes adjust your strategy. A grind is the equivalent of 5 clears (conservative) so that should net you about 26k just playing the last sub alone. They don't want everyone to do this but it should be more than manageable, if you can't manage this then get your roster / time to a position where you can next time.

I was missing one essential and was unable to do 1 node ( The last ) ONE EVERY BOARD last hulk event . I made progression plus. THis time same event same missing one essential and one node. and im not even making the daily progress. Currently on the day 2 sub if i follow the clear every 8 hours and without grinding down other nodes ill get UNDER 8k and be left with very little to no heal packs to go into day 3 ? Explain how i can do better without buying heal packs ? after today im looking at being 4k behind the daily progress. with little to no hope of catching up. I would just like d3 to admit that they have changed the points .

Explain how i can do better without buying heal packs ? after today im looking at being 4k behind the daily progress. with little to no hope of catching up. I would just like d3 to admit that they have changed the points . You can complete all nodes with just a level 94 roster, excepting missing essentials. I feel like you may be misunderstanding optimal grinding. You want to do the first clear upon sub opening, a second clear 8 hours later, and a third clear 8 hours after that. 2-3 hours before each sub ends you should attempt to clear the nodes down to 1 point. You regenerate a health pack every 36 minutes, so you get 10 every 6 hours. When I had a 94 roster, I almost never ran out of health packs to do a clear, and that was with community scaling and also limited to storing 5 health packs. The main difficulty with health packs I find is the end of the sub grind as you said, where you need to save enough health packs to clear the next sub upon opening. Just do the best you can on that front. As explained above, points will increase significantly over the course of the end, as it is a long one. It's both important that you do the first 3 clears per sub fresh for maximum points, but also that you do not let nodes sit at maximum points for any significant period of time. If you make sure to do 3 fresh clears per sub and spend at least an hour grinding at the end of each sub, I expect you will have no problem reaching the final progression reward.

How do you do this without spending money on heal packs ? I never have bough heal pack ever and never failed to make progress.. I cant do 8 hour grinds as if i do that i would have heal packs to start on the next day at the 2 am time slice ? if i follow your do every 8 hours ill make LESS THEN 6k on this day.. wich will put me at about 16k for 2 days and thats 4 k off progress.. So how can they not have messed with the points.

Nah, I think I misjudged it, cuz I selected the end time, when I finished work (2am) I completed the nodes once & hit the hay. Woke up the next day ranked 200+ on the sub node.

Some of these essentials should be handing out close to 1k. Reminds me of Ultron where only 1 or 2 alliances got to Rd 8. A to everyone who participated might be in order
