Extremely Low Merit Rewards For (I)TF - Imperius

[Whiskiz]

We did an Imperius Task Force with disadvantages - no inspirations, no temporary powers and enhanced enemy stats or whatever - as well as setting the silver time limit that we made in time and only received 26 merits in total - for the ITF, the extra chosen reward at the end of it and the 3 disadvantage bonuses.

 

We did it on -1 difficulty if that matters but have heard difficulty doesn't affect merit rewards.

 

Would be great if we could get some confirmation on if this is intended or bugged and if it gets fixed - to know if we can ever be able to engage with these mechanics again and be properly rewarded.

 

Thanks for your time.

According to the wiki ITF gives 26 merits (and that number sounds in the right ballpark with what I remember).  Are the disadvantages supposed to reward more merits?  If so that's the only part that's bugged.

Apparently they are supposed to reward more merits - otherwise what would be the point of disadvantaging yourself and your group?

The challenge settings are only used for obtaining badges.  It never increased merit rewards.

That was my recollection too, I just wasn't sure if the SCORE team had made any changes on that front.
