Well, all I know is I have been putting in the time and money I can afford for over a year. All I do is hover in T4. I may have gotten T3 once or twice but never T1 or T2. I guess I just don't have the real-life resources needed to go any further up the ladder.

Although there are many reasons why this could be, there is no doubt that I get far fewer help requests during raid events than I used to. Even when I do get them, I don't always get a shot. When I do, only some of them actually get defeated. So, overall, I am looking at only a handful of useful help requests each event. Yes, that carries you a long way from 0 points. However, it doesn't quite push you past T4.

Furthermore, with the changes made to "accommodate" R8, I can no longer take out any boss on my own. This means there is no way for me to farm resources or points. Before, I could at least grind my way up part of the ladder by taking out the lower bosses for effectively no cost. Now, every boss costs me BC.
