Doing my best to crack the strategy!

Hello Player of this Event,

I spend the last 5h chatting with multiple runners, top player and casual ones, gathering feedback on the ranking.
After much back and forth, and a lot of test calculations I decided to adjust the score system.

My goal the the event series is to allow multiple unique strategy's to shine, but with the old score system the viable strategy for a good position were limited.
And better do the change <20h in the even then after 1 week.

I´m sorry for everyone who already spend there time on optimizing their run. I hope you can understand the reason behind my decision.

There change is quite simple:
Old:   Time * 10 + Power
New: Time * 10 + Power / 10

This results that speed has bigger impact on your runs.
So if you use 500 Energy it impacts your score by 50, instead of 500 like before

I hope you have fun with the second Round of SSS.

its with the 0,1 of a sec. But power gets cut at the decimal.
SO: 25,3 sec and 225 Power --> 253 Points + 22 Points = 275 Score

Since today (20th August) is my 37th birthday, I am giving everyone with bronze and silver ranks who participates AFTER seeing this post and gets below 22 sec, 370 bfp (max 10 people). I really wish more people could enjoy the event Ultralord prepared and play around with strategies outside rpve and campaign.

You can mail me in game, here or Discord.
