Broken node 12

Prev1
So what's the deal I have never had a broken node 12. I finish gw most days starting with rebels . And finish with palp team with 44,124 power

    The two prevailing theories are that it is based on the power of your top 5 toons, or the power of your arena squad. Once it comes to within a certain % of the highest power teams you can face, the algorithm breaks and you wind up with computer generated easy nodes at the end. That's why a lot of people lost their easy nodes afternoon the last level cap increase: many people's power increased and they had to increase their own to get back to that %. I, for one, only this week began to consistently get easy node 12 again. I am a little above 45k arena power.

    It is based on top 5 toons, not arena power. I used to run droids and started getting easy node and never broke 40k arena power for a while. But that's just my opinion.

    The broken algorithm does seem to be the theory as once you get a certain amount of power there is no team with the % power calculated so you get "fake" team like the non ally allies when starting a new section in the game.

    The more your power increases, you can apparently break even more of them. Warrior from ti mentions this in his yt videos, he basically only has a challenge at node 9 I believe.

    Kind of ridiculous, that the strongest guys get the easiest gw. For what it's worth, I'd assume those guys would actually agree and would like a challenge. This should be fixed, idk, the game should create a team that's powerful enough. Just pick the toughest guys actually available and increase their stats accordingly.

    44k powers not enough??

    I have been testing this with a friend. I get the easy nodes and my top 5 toons are at 50,500 power and my arena team is around 48,700. He has both an arena team and top 5 toons around 49,200. But I have had easy node 12's for months and he lost them about a month ago. Just adding here for a datapoint.

    When you send a suicide squad it gives them bonus TM, I don't think that is the best way.
    Hit 'em hard with your top team and take out as many as you can. Take the rest out with other teams.
    Don't be a ****(4), and follow forum guidelines.

    Nothing has changed in regards to gw since then, so how does it not apply? And as I mentioned you can check his other videos out, on the stream one he completes a gw before heading into a tournament (link). There you can see the same thing.

    Don't just look at the date and jump to conclusions, is that how you think it's done?

    You'll start getting easy nodes if you have roughly 46k+ power for the top geared characters. If you're closer to 50k power, you'll likely get an easy node 11. But remember that nodes 6 and 9 will be around your power levels.
    As for me, I get the easy 12th node, but nodes 6, 9, and 11 were brutal.

    I haven't gotten that far usually I get stuck on 8/6 lately and my top5 hasn't changed in ages.
    I hate these new timesinks called Tb/tw. Annoying features.

    Hell, I get the EXACT same TI team every day for Node 12 for a couple weeks now, too. Nothing hard, but it gets monotonous.

    My top 5 are at 47,260 and I haven't upgraded either of them in like a week, today for the first time I got a broken node 12... right after a ridiculously strong node 11 though, probably one of the strongest teams I've faced in GW to date.

    12 is always easy these days. I had an easy node 11 today, for some reason. Haven't changed anything.

    You just face harder previous nodes, so broken nodes is not always a good solution

    I broke node 11 and 12 with about 45,500 power.

    It is Wedge lead,Biggs,R2,Lando,Leia for node1 and many nodes.

    Even I use 52,000 power team on node1 and many node still can not broke node 11.

    So my theory is High damage which reach a limit broke the node as Wiggs team is high damage.

    My node 12 broke with a similar team. Wedge (L), Biggs, R2, Boba, and ST Han.

    i think GW would be better if they fixed broken nodes AND improved their math. the way they pair you up is clearly what's broken. power level isn't always what's important.

    My top 5 has power of 48,003. I always get a broken node when I use that squad once. When I don't, I never get a broken node 12. I think you actually have to use your top 5 in power in a battle once in order for it to break. I usually do it on node 1 since that's an easy one.

    I think you have to use it once in gw in first batle or use it in arena at least once

    This actually worked. Got the broken node for the first time just now. Thanks
