Starting in the The Hunt Story Event on May 21st, we will be updating progression rewards for 3-day, 4-day and 7-day Story events. We have increased the amount of rewards and made the rewards more goal oriented based on the amount of repeatable mission completions. We have also increased the reward amounts, most notably, more Iso-8, Hero Points, and Command Points. Every S.H.I.E.L.D. Clearance Level (or SCLs) has been updated. Please see below for more details.
General Changes
Increased the number of rewards to 30 (from 20)
The number of times each repeatable mission needs to be completed to receive the top progression reward has been increased to 5 times (from 4).
Here is some more information provided by Demiurge Anthony.
Normal non-wave, non-“Join Forces” missions: First 4 clears are counted in full. The fifth clear is counted 2/3rds of the full points. (we don’t expect people to wait until it regenerates)
Join Forces Missions are counted 3 times (full points, 2/3rd points and 1/3rd points) Wave missions are counted only twice.
Basically, if someone plays all missions to green checkmarks without waiting for timers to refill, they’ll get top progression even with the reduced points from 5th and 6th node clears.
3-day and 4-day Story Events
Iso-8 has been increased by 55% in the lowest SCLs and 35% in the highest. Players will receive 1,950 more Iso-8 in progression rewards at SCL 8
Hero Points have been increased at each SCL (as much as 66% in some SCLs)
Command Points have been increased as much as 30% in the highest SCLs
Because it wasn’t already enough of a time commitment… increasing the number of clears required for full progression nullifies anything else mentioned by this post. People want to grind LESS for crying out loud.
God why? Why change the number of times each repeatable mission needs to be completed to receive the top progression reward from 4 to 5? DO WE NOT PLAY YOUR GAME ENOUGH?
This does a good job of filling in the blanks at the end of the progression ladder.
…BUT…
it would be even better if the CP were distributed in more chunks, especially for the 7-day events.
If you have something come up near the last day of a 7-day event, it might be tough to recover and make max progression with an off-day in there. If that last chunk of CP was split and distributed at more than one point, maybe with the first (smaller) chunk at the old 4x hit threshold, it would be nice. Just something to consider.
Awesome change!!! Nice to get more rewards after passing up current progression system. Also with more 3* covers being in progression will get my 3* characters to level 266 a little quicker. More of the other stuff is great too!!! Thanks!!!
I normally complete 6 clears so this does not directly affect me, however it could affect placement. If players now have to clear 5 times, they may likely just finish the last clear for the 10 XP. Overall, there could have been increased progression rewards without the need to increase the number of clears, especially when players have been begging for reduced grinding and the recent post from the devs about “quality of life.”
It mostly looks like 7-day events received the huge increase in rewards.. I find this interesting because this means most players don’t start 7-day events until 2-3 days after it starts.. why? We’re sick of grinding! I wish 7-day events would be broken into 3 and 4 two part events.. for instance “Prodigal of Sun Part 1” for 3-days and then follow it up with “Prodigal Sun Part 2” for 4-days. Eliminate the grueling 7-day events already!
Please add an option where i can play all 4 or 5 rounds in one continuous event. Like instead of lvl 77, then level 87, then lvl 97
Set them up in waves so I still get rewards.
Alliteratively, maybe just let me play the node once at max level + 50 or so more levels for good meausre. Clearing out that version gives me all the points and rewards.
Clearing 4 times is too much. Five is just aggravating.
I am glad to see more rewards, and if you’d have stopped there, I would have applauded the updated. However, you’re also requiring us to play more to get full progression. That’s not good
I think it was already asked, but I’ll ask again, to get Full Progression now, can I complete the 5th clear immediately after the 4th, or are the points such that I must wait some time for points to regenerate before I can get enough from my 5th clears?
