@TeamStewiesaid: OK this is ridiculous. The 5 star node in the 2nd sub for HOD SCL7 is exactly the same as the 4 but the difficulty is higher and we're getting half the points? How is that fair?

How is that fair? Would you mind explaining what you mean by "exactly the same as the 4"?As of right now, the 5-Star Essential awards 132 full points, and starts with level 185 enemies. The 4-Star Essential awards 402 full points, and starts with level 150 enemies. This seems to match the announced changes.
penguiniffic said: I think a lot of people misunderstood how this was going to work (myself included initially). After re-reading @Brigby 's initial post, I can see that SCL 7 was left off the post. So, it's just SCL 8 & 9 that still have the 5* req node's points and enemy levels higher than the 4* node. In SCL7, both the point value and enemy levels have been reduced much lower than the 4* req node intentionally. Per some alliance mates, it looks like it's been lowered to equal to the first node.

Change it so I can do fewer clears for the same rewards and/or 2) change the system so I'm not punished for how long it takes me to play or when I start & end.

Otherwsie it'll wait until I slowly build up my roster enough to do the next SCL in reasonable time. Though with the ongoing dilution that timeline keeps getting longer.
