HOW TO UNLOCK THE JOKER

WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN EPISODE RANK AND MASTERY LEVEL?

EPISODE RANK

• Episode Ranks and their subsequent rewards give a more predictable way to earn the gear in an Episode so you don’t have to grind through Incursion missions hoping to get a specific item. We noticed frustration in Finite Crisis where the RNG gods didn't always favour you and you ended up having to replay lower tiered Incursion missions because you were missing one or two items.
• If you look through the Episode Rank timeline you can see the new gear available (Legendary items, Notorious items and Infamy Set pieces) in each Episode. Our intent is to make sure you have a predictable way to earn it all and never have to worry about RNG, and you can gauge the time you needed to put into the game to earn a specific item.
• There are also cosmetic items in there, crafting recipes, additional Battle Pass XP and more, getting you a few extra goodies as you rank up.
• In addition, each Episode's Rank marks your journey and progress through that Episode. When you get to Episode Rank 200, you will have earned all the new pieces of gear that we added in that Episode.
• You earn Ranks by completing missions in Metropolis and, once you have unlocked Mastery Levels, it's collated from the three highest completed Mastery Levels of the six available Incursion missions.Metropolis missions = 0.5 - 1 rank, depending on difficulty (As indicated above the mission icon on the map) Strongholds = 1 rankIncursion missions = 1 rank
• Mastery Level Incursion mission = 1 rank for each Mastery Level above the previously completed Mastery Level for that mission
• Episode Rank Rewards are granted as soon as you rank up. If it's gear, it's found in the Bat Pod after completing a mission. Everything else (Resources, crafting recipes, XP bonuses, cosmetics, etc.) are applied directly to your account when you complete a mission that results in a rank up.
• Each Episode has its own Episode Rank which starts at 0. For Episode 1 - FEAR, the Episode Rank is called FEAR Rank.
• You can always go back to a previous Episode and increase your Episode Rank in that specific Episode. Episode Rank Rewards are predetermined up until Fear Rank 200 and then they are randomized (Gear and resources).

MASTERY LEVELS

• Mastery Levels work the same as they do in Finite Crisis. You unlock them by completing the Mayhem mission (defeating Brainiac) in the Episode.
• Mastery Level is the increasing difficulty/challenge level that you can select when taking on an Incursion/Mayhem mission.
• Different blocks of Mastery Levels drop different Tiers of Infamy gear:1-13 - Tier 1 Infamy Sets14-23 - Tier 2 Infamy Sets [list]
• 24+ - Tier 3 Infamy Sets
• All sets are re-added to the pool at 55+
• Mastery Levels are used for Leaderboard placement.
• Higher Mastery Level = higher challenge = more rewards.

DAMAGE REDUCTION & AFFLICTION RESISTANCES

DAMAGE REDUCTION

• If you have two items that both give 50% damage reduction, you won't end up with 100% damage reduction. You end up with 75% damage reduction. 50% from the first damage reduction, and 50% of the remaining 50%.1,000 damage with 50% damage reduction = 500 damage taken [list]
• 1,000 damage with an additional 50% damage reduction = 250 damage taken
• You can never reach 100% damage reduction, unless you have an item that makes you temporarily immune to damage (Eg. Hugo Strange’s Specialization or King Shark’s Power of the Ancients).

AFFLICTION RESISTANCE

• Affliction resistance augments reduce the duration of the affliction. I.e. if you have 50% affliction resistance, you are Frozen for 50% less time.
• Affliction resistance augments are not diminishing since they work on a duration basis. If you have two augments that both increase affliction resistance by 25%, then the total would be a 50% reduction in duration.
