Is there a way to set a custom boss to be an EB during solo play, but an Archvillain during Team or Max Difficulty play? Does it automatically scale it down?

Archvillains normally scale down to elite boss when playing on less than the highest difficulty rating solo.

I am at a loss as to how the rewards system works. Do you get XP, Inf, Drops, and these Tickets? Or what?

You get normal XP, influence and inspiration drops from defeating enemies. Any other drops are replaced by tickets. You don't get the big end-of-mission XP and inf bonus, but you get a ticket bonus instead. Also, patrol XP doesn't seem to apply to AE missions.

When I browse the arcs, do I see things JUST from my server, or all servers?

All servers.

Also, I made a custom boss and I didnt get a badge for it... Is that normal? The sticky says there is a badge for it, but I am not sure why I didn't get it.

You need to publish an arc with a custom boss to get the badge.

So on the lowest Diff they would still be an EB and not a boss?

That would explain it. I haven't published it yet.

Correct. FYI, in my experience, everything above the level of a Lieutenant is demoted a rank regardless of the size of the team when playing an MA arc at the lowest difficulty setting; Bosses become Lieutenants, EBs become bosses, and AVs become EBs.
So I just resubbed, came back after a long time away, and instantly dove into the Architect. I am actually making an arc (5 missions, 3 are done) and I wanted to ask some questions.
1. Is there a way to set a custom boss to be an EB during solo play, but an Archvillain during Team or Max Difficulty play? Does it automatically scale it down? (I usually play on the 1st to 3rd diff setting, not higher) so I wanted to know I could make something an AV if needed.
2. I am at a loss as to how the rewards system works. Do you get XP, Inf, Drops, and these Tickets? Or what?
3. When I browse the arcs, do I see things JUST from my server, or all servers?
Thanks in advance for any help you can give me. The actual help files and the FAQ on the site are very good and generally answer MOST of my questions.
