Sooooo.... Ok, the first 2 PFs results, post-Costume Party, are in. And interestingly enough, both Diamond 30% thresholds are under 30M! While the 10% scores remained relatively close to the previous 70M range. (It's obvious the only factor at 10% is the new rewards? are they really that much...

Riddle me this: Why are our defensive fighters in Rifts available to fight other Bases? How can they be in 2 'places' at once?

Well, it sorta becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy; after one falls short of the current PF threshold, everyone goes 4-5M more to be 'safe'. But I also think the lock-out contributes in some way as thresholds are determined by percentile of the qualifying players, especially in Diamond. Before...

50M in 3 days (and dozens energy refills) is only worth 2 gold moves? Somethings gotta change with Dia (and all) PF rewards...Personally, I don't care about the Dia Key, just want a fighter for that much effort (btw, don't think I've forgotten we used to get 3 each PF)

I think we all might be a little surprised where 10% threshold falls (meaning it will be lower than we expect)... Back to School 10% was just over 17M, granted this one is longer and there's Diamond relic at the top of the milestones, so don't expect it to be under20M, but I'm thinking it won't...

Hey, they all reset again at 10am too...Huh, if a player was quick, they could have gotten a 'bonus' set of Deployments and Parlor rewards today...

So close...the Viewing Parlor still resets at Midnight...

So, can we get everything with a time rest to reset to the new 'time'? It's a bit of annoyance to track Deployment/Viewing Parlor resets on the 'old' time...

I haven't done it, but you can sac dupes with 'Power Up' for Prestige for max level character of any tier, you just won't get XP, but you'll get the SP and Prestige will unlock/increase as appropriate. (you can see 'boosts', if any, before committing to the sacrifice).

Yeah, this is very unclear...and not just for Rift...all Dailies and PFs...everything with a timer resets @ 10am PT...starting with 4.9... So, are we moving the clock forward or backwards? We'll find out soon enough...I'm guessing forward Oh, and I can finally start opening these:

Question is, with 10 PAs left to reveal, at 1 a day, including today, that will take us to Halloween...so, will the Costume PF start or end on the 31st? And how will PAs impact that PF if released before it starts?

Yep, kinda. Seems Evolution makes no difference in how much prestige levels earned when saccing.

I don't think it is doom and gloom, but OTOH, I don't see it as that big a boon for having dupes. As I said in my status update, I don't think this really solves the dupe issue in the sense that as 'hard' as Diamonds (or exclusives) are to get, players want to get unique charas before getting...
