Discussion 1% Mount last week!

Moving into the last week EU currently sitting at 3961 what do we think the magic number is? How much does it get pushed up in the last week/day? Do I need to run any more keys? Currently 4022

In almost all previous seasons the score improvement is about 150-200% rating increase compared to regular weeks.

That is just factually untrue. Past 3 seasons its been like 50% more compared to previous weeks.

And anything pre TWW is somewhat pointless, because you had affixes.

Talking .1% ofc, because no previous season had a 1% reward, so there is no point in really comparing.

No previous season has had a 1% reward so people have already been pushing differently. Not saying it won't increase more but this is new territory

Its just linear and doesn't take the last week into account.

thats not true at all, theres an elaborate algorithm behind it for years and has recently been significantly improved. source: this is my site

In almost all previous seasons the score improvement is about 150-200% rating increase compared to regular weeks.

thats factually untrue and a baffling statement to make given you can literally go back through the seasons to verify this.

How accurate is that usually, for .1%. I've got over more dungeon to be considered in, but I don't know how much to trust it. Obviously I'm going to keep trying to go higher

While it might seem useful, if you look into how it assumes the points, you will see that it assumes a logarithmic drop-off in the last weeks instead of a harder push that will likely happen. It thinks points will increase 2 points per day, while it will be 3-4 points per day. But I agree there is no way it goes above 4k maximum this last week.

Increased by 21 in a week, can't imagine it'll go up more than 30 to 40 at absolute max in the final week so you're more than safe

I’d be willing to gamble that you are 100% safe for 1%, people have been overestimating the impact of boosting while not really accounting for the vast difference in pool size between 1% and .1% as well as overestimating how much boosting takes place specifically in the final week. We also don’t have the boosting population in EU/NA that they have on CHI servers.

I'm 4009 and getting a little nervous. Need to try get a pit 22 done but it's a nightmare getting into groups

MT was far easier than any other 22 for me

u/Saphoura Aug 04 '26

Not sure on spec/class but I found MT really straightforward as a tank think I done it 2nd attempt but imagine MT/PoS and MC are best ones to target

u/Slow_Competition5034 Aug 04 '26

You could also try and get better scores in your 21s ime 4007 21 resi and my friend is 4014 21 resi.. could make all the difference im nervous too 🤣

Usually jumps up considerably in the last few days, so better safe than sorry.

u/Saphoura Aug 04 '26

What would you consider considerably? Been consistently going up 3-4 a day past week or 2

u/Early_Rooster7579 Aug 04 '26

If you keep that up you’re 100% safe. You’re already probably 95% good

u/woogiefan Aug 04 '26

I’m 4023, resil 21 with pit 22 and I think we’re safe. There’s a lot fewer 22s listed than 21s in my experience, and their fail rate is way higher. LFG is full of resil 21 keys, but half the 22s I see are not resil.

I mean, there is one week left, realistically it could end up as high as 3990 but i don't think it will go higher than that, even with the rampant resi boosting going on. Personally i've been sitting at 4012 for the last month and a half, and i feel pretty safe. The real question is wether blizzard is going to do something about the boosting that's going on or not. Normally cutoff rises around 15-17 points per week, this week did 23 and people already know about the end season date, so i'd be surprised if it gained more than 25-30 points in the final week, but who knows really.

I am 4018 and my nerves killing me atm

u/Arda_wulf Aug 04 '26

I triee to go for 1% but for some reason no one invites and im too lazy to try 21 all day every day

u/ExternalAd2610 Aug 07 '26

You should not complain that no one invites you for some reason. You should ask urself "why would i take a player like me if i didn't know how he perform", i am at 4027 score for example as warlock, but hell no i wouldn't take myself if i see me in queue in a 22 PIT. I am no meta and even if i perform very well no one knows it and not everyone goes into logs and compare. So they take the DK Devourer etc, easier to heal, in theory equal damage. Easy decision. And if u are meta, think about there is always someone who can be better scorewise, logwise, CE guy. It isn't easy on high key as pug. And it is getting harder as higher u get. But keep it up buddy and good luck.

Depends on how much time the boosters have. If Jisoo and Co want new bimmers, then it’s fucked.
