What determines what bosses are available to you in an event? Is it your level or point total? I'm level 30 right now, and only have 17k points, and I'm only getting Arcee's and Firestar's. I was hoping to make a mad dash to try and get into the top 7k ranking to get an Arcee card, but that ain't gonna happen if i'm lucky to get 540 or 720 points a boss.

I don't think it's your level, because I am a fairly low level as well (34?) and I've been getting a lot of lvl6 Firestar and some level 4 Chromia (1.7mil HPs / 29K bounty and 2mil HPs / 41k bounty, respectively). But I have about 1.8mil points. So it definitely looks like it's based on points.

It might also have been some kind of bug because I kept being offered stronger and stronger bosses to help on as the event progressed but, at some point last evening, I started seeing help requests for very low level bosses (<800pts) which you can basically one-cube with a team of 6k or so. It's possible some people started finding lower-level bosses all of a sudden... Didn't see any this morning, though, so everything looks like it's back to normal...

Your best chance of getting a lot of points easily is if you're asked for help on a big boss (basically anything giving out 16k+ bounty points) that is already fairly damaged and just pitching in for one cube. If the rest of the players help out enough and the boss is defeated, that'll boost your ranking significantly.

Right now I'm sitting at around rank 1300, and beating one 30-40K bounty boss barely gives me 3-4 ranks up, so there's no way I could make it into top 1000... I'm not even sure how those people are doing it >_>
