Received 5 Empyrean Merits for vet level 72

[Hedgefund]

According to HC Wiki (see https://hcwiki.cityofheroes.dev/wiki/Veteran_Levels) attainment of vet level 72 should reward 10 Empyreans.  

 

I have attached a screenshot that shows:

1) Attained vet level of 72

2) A reward of 5 Empyrean merits

 

Wiki is not infallible, but this is what the reward schedule would look like if 72 was the beginning of the 5 Emp reward:

 

Vet level: Number of Times Emp Rewarded

0-24 (20 Emps): 8

27-48 (15 Emps): 8

51-69 (10 Emps): 7

72-99 (5 Emps): 10

 

I'm going to restate the table shown in the HC wiki page to reflect number of times rewarded rather than total Emps, just to compare the same units:

 

0-24 (20 Emps): 8

27-48 (15 Emps): 8

51-75 (10 Emps): 9

78-99 (5 Emps): 8

 

Bottom line, I received 5 Emps at 72 and it should have been 10 Emps.  I would imagine this affects anyone.

I had another character hit vet level 72 very recently.  The Empyrean reward was still 5, as per the attached screenshot.

 

Could someone advise whether the wiki is incorrect or the in-game rewards?  (Wiki link provided in first paragraph in OP).

The consolidated i25 patch notes has 72 as the first 5 empy level. I don't recall there being changes to those numbers in any subsequent patches but then again I don't generally recall a whole lot of anything.

* Badges 3 to 24: 20 Empyrean Merits
* Badges 27 to 48: 15 Empyran Merits
* Badges 51 to 69: 10 Empyrean Merits
* Badges 72 to 99: 5 Empyrean Merits

Wiki is incorrect, reward is working as intended. 3-34: 160 merits, 27-48: 120 merits, 51-69: 70 merits, 72-99: 50 merits, grand total 400 merits.
