We can go ahead and cash in Super-Rares as we get them? Since Galaxy Phase is just one Phase?

    SR turn-in has always been about assuring your rank at the end of the event. If you don't want others to be able to jump past you in the last few minutes, then you should hold your SRs.

    Yeah. I'm pretty sure I am going to be in the top 1000

    Well, you'll have the same number of points either way. Some people will stop grinding when their rank in the 700s and think that they're safe. Then a bunch of people will dumped their SRs and we'll have another thread wondering why they dropped 300 ranks in the last hour.

    The players that do that are hoping that enough people will get comfortable and stop so that when the last minute surge hits, those left behind won't have time to catch up.

    Your VP doesn't change, but if enough competitors stop increasing theirs, it can affect your ranking.

    700 is the death sentence with an hour to go. Usually if you dont have rares to cash, you'll find yourself on the outside so try and get under that if cashing in.

    If you want to feel “safe” you need to be around 500 with them all cashed in with an hour to go. The 1200-700 range is brutal in the last hour, I’ve been in the 300’s the past few galaxys and lost less than 50 spots. The worst last hour drop I suffered was from ~550 to 1003 :(

    Not with this event. Points are very high with expedition and faction first so ranks will jump less.

    Points are clumpy. Especially with the expedition giving basically a fixed VP per ticket you have large number of people grouped together based on the number of tickets they ran. Within that clump you will still see movement, but you will likely not see a lot of movement between clumps.
