How is score calculated?

[WolverineJon]

I played the daily run for the first time today. I completed the run with zero hull damage taken, and a score of 779, which was good for something like #125 on the daily leaderboard. Hooray!

I noticed the top spots on the daily leaderboard had scores of 1000+. Hmm!

This led me to ask: How is score calculated in Cobalt Core? What specific things should be done, beyond winning the run, to achieve a higher score?

(Also: Is there any way to see the daily run leaderboard once again, after leaving it?)

You can hover over the daily score artifact for details on scoring, but basically you can get 25/50/100 points per normal/elite/boss battle, reduced by 1 for each turn taken, reduced by 3 for each hull damage taken. Fights in event nodes count as normal battles; Cleo counts as a boss battle.

As for checking the leaderboard again, it’s a small button on the Daily Run screen, between Back and Start.

Ah so its just maximising your fights, avoiding stores and events
