Challenge of valor done, wonders what's next. Sees the challenge of might "nooooooooooo" xD Here's a Hint if ya want it it helps to start a new pilot and play since you run into more dominion and outlaws at the beginning than lvl 30.

What I don't really get is I thought that the idea of scaling to item level was that the bad guys would also scale to item level. The unequipping support item "glitch" and legendary stuffing exploit is separate from enemy scaling. For the former, what was going on was that the damage from specific "gear-less" sources (namely: ultimates, melee, combos, and procs) scaled based on your average gear score. Only damage from those sources are scaled. Weapon/gear damage is not affected at all. So it wasn't a universal, "unequip your support and all your damage increases" thing. Enemy scaling works differently. It may also be tied in some way to gear score but the calculations are all different. At least when you reach level 30, if there is any enemy scaling the effects are not enough to undo the increase in power you get when equipping better (higher gearscore) gear. I don't actually know how scaling works at level 30 (or even if there is any scaling). Maybe I'll test it myself when I get the chance.

That's what I did. Our challenge progress, coins, and faction rep is shared between pilots, so you only have to do these challenges once over the course of your gameplay. You still have to go and visit all the tombs again for that first Legionnaires mission, but you can just walk in and open them. I'm relieved. I wanted to restart with a new pilot but did not want to start over with rank and challenges!

OK … that's a relief. I thought that's the way it worked … then others went off on how it was all about starting over from scratch. Obviously, they have either not played the game or if they have played it, have not started a new pilot.
I had an entire new group of names picked out for my second run … but held off. I'm running the story right now with friends who were TDY/other for the past month and have just started the game … would have been nice to sync up with them … but now I know we can play the story again … once they complete their first run.
Thanks.

Dipped my toes in the GM2 water for Leg Contract. Found my 690 Colossus may have well been naked. Talk about being stomped. I don't mind a challenge but that wasn't even fun to deal with.
Think I will stick to GM1 for time being.

I barely play on Normal....Here y'all are talkin about GM levels, makes me drool with envy. I'm not even that good, don't think I ever will be. I can barely make it through a Stronghold on Hard with a full squad.

EB … what level are you at? While I was doing the story solo, even at level 15, hard was … hard (albeit doable).
But as I got better "stuff" … components and such … hard became easy, GM1 became realistic to play and I could contribute to the team.
With friends delayed starting the game, just now doing the story together … even on hard, my level 30 Javelins are way overpowered.
On PC, I remapped my controls to better use powers and such (lessons learned from the demos). Defaults are … less than optimum.

Think I will stick to GM1 for time being. Hulk Smash not working well enough? With the right Combo setup a Colossus clears GM2 pretty easily. I run with 2 Primer abilities and mostly Smash my way around. Big bosses are the only thing I need to be careful about and try to shoot from a distance. I don't even have good gear as my Colossus is the last Javelin I am getting to MW level and use whatever MW stuff I get. The component for armor restore on melee kill is great.

This morning I got my first Truth of Tarsis. 😎 Looks like blast damage is back in fashion. 😉🤟
That's the one I really want to get. I played the Devestator all through levelling up but I have yet to get a MW or Legendary version of it

I didn't bother with it either at first because I didn't know the freeze effect primed.

If there was a New Game+ mode i would try it but without one i prefer to use my leveled up ranger to farm those contracts and strongholds.

When you're on New Pilot screen, it says (or shortly after starting a new game) that everything but loadout pieces (gear) and story missions status is shared.

Explains why loot is irrelevant due to Power Scaling. The article explains in detail why it is so.
Has anyone here verified this?
