For Event, the most recent Winter Event on February had introduced a Difficulty system, allowing players to choose what difficulty you want to do for each Event Maps.

Before the Winter Event, the map difficulties were pre-determined by your HQ level.

Right now though the difficulty options are open to you depending on your HQ level.

If your HQ level was lower than 39, then you will only have access to Easy. Higher HQ level will have Medium and Hard mode available.

But one thing that has become different from the previous Events is that the easier difficulties give less rewards compared to the harder difficulties.

Only reason HQ increasing can become bad is because of 1-5 node A =w=;; When the troll nuke sub starts appearing after your HQ level reaches 80...

Frankly speaking, newer Admirals should enjoy 1-5 to power level DDs and CLs as much as they can... But going to boss node and increasing your HQ level can ruin it :(
