Some observations-

Mobage has fixed PvP battles to actually use Convergence and hit full battle groups with R4 weapon- equipped characters

My J5 can take 20 hits from a Tracer 7, but I can't 1 cube anything past Tracer 2 consistently. Grrr.

I hit the weapon space bridge 3 times and got warpath's weapon 3 times. I guess I was unlucky because normally I seem to get a set of the weapons if I hit it 3 times or at least an x5/x7/x10 weapon (always looking for the x5).

I believe what you scan is heavily weighted to rank rather than points totals. I'm sure there's some point total band, but I've noticed an extreme difference in boss scanning based on which rank I'm currently at. For example, before bed I was in the 500's scanning tracer 2,3,4 and 5. when I woke up in the 2000's, it was all growls 4,5,6 and a tracer 1 every now and then. Perhaps this is anecdotal evidence, but I believe it reinforces the "rich get richer" model that the events seem to follow and it should lead everyone to emphasize getting to the tier they are aiming for as quickly as possible in order to claim and hold your spot easier. Last day runs are fun, but holding down a position is easier than storming Normandy.
