AQ Points not tracking correctly

In addition to not receiving ranked rewards for the week that just finished, I have also noticed that modifier bonuses are not increasing or are increasing incorrectly.

On day 7, I completed the Map 6 with Epic Modifier (I am late to the game and Day 7 is the only time I ran AQ last week).

On the following Day 1, I started Map 6 with the SAME modifier. For the first hours of the quest, the system advised the Modifier Bonus was 3,450,000, which is a Day 2 bonus for a unique modifier. Then, later it self-corrected to 2,300,000, which is the Day 1 bonus for a modifier on Map 6.

On Day 2, I started Map 6 with the next unique Epic modifier. It is currently reporting that my Modifier Bonus is 2,300,000. It should have incremented to 3,450,000 for the second day of a unique Epic modifier on Map 6.

I also, noticed that nodes are yielding more points than what was normal for a 5 day week. This was expected as it is advertised in the change to 4 days. However, the point increase does not seem anywhere near enough to compensate for a missing 5th day run using Map 6 with Epic modifiers.

It appears that way more balancing needs to be done to match 5-day points to 4-day points. Also, please fix the Modifier bonus payout, if you had intended on keeping the incremental increases for unique modifiers each week. If you had meant to abandon this scaling, then make sure you advertise the change so we don't count on points we're not going to get. But the Day 5 unique Epic modifier bonus was 5,750,000. That's an avalanche of points for a small alliance only completing one map every day. It doesn't seem that Kabam has set a way to compensate for that loss, much less the total point value for nodes on a map run.

Before the update we used to get prestige bonuses after map boss clears that gave you more points in each fight in the next days map but I guess they’ve done away with this. I asked about this on the main thread about the update but no word.

Yup, my prestige stayed the same the whole week. My score was incremented each day, but only by a factor to make up for the missing 5th day. However, the Map modifier bonus was not changed.

My 4 day total for Map 6 Epic modifier is 28.6M.

My 5 day total for Map 6 Epic on the old system was around 38M. That's a 6.9M loss on the Day 5 modifier bonus alone, plus the lost prestige increases.

Luckily, it appears that the awarded Glory is the same, despite the lower total. Let's hope the rank bonus is the same way, so I can net the same amount of Glory.

They said higher Maps would get slightly more; it doesn't appear so. I'm curious what the lower maps make, now. I do like how the points are more uniform. I can better gauge things for when I don't want to work as much, but still need a certain point total. But not if the lower maps actually do net slightly fewer points.
