How does an AV auto convert to an EB?
AV--> EB in line with normal play
Invincible will always be an AV, through to a team of 6 or more on heroic to make the EB
EB-->Boss, appears to be triggered only solo on heroic.
A natural EB will never upscale to an AV
@Catwhoorg "Rule of Three - Finale" Arc# 1984
@Mr Falkland Islands"A Nation Goes Rogue" Arc# 2369 "Toasters and Pop Tarts" Arc#116617
EBs will never convert up unless they're specifically made as AVs.

Also, if the AV in question is a custom critter AV, if the team leader is set to difficulty 1 it will always be an EB, regardless of team size. Every custom enemy above lieutenant rank acts in this manner.
So, if you're difficulty 1, custom bosses are always LTs, custom EBs are always bosses, and custom AVs are always EBs, regardless of team size.

Wow... beaten to the punch and with links proving the stuff I wasn't 100% sure on. Good job guys.

I also think that custom AVs will always be downgraded to EBs when you're soloing, even on difficulty 5... though I may just be remembering poorly.

Specifically, if I make an arc with an AV, what difficulty converts him to an EB?
In the same way, will an EB ever convert to a regular boss?
And in reverse, will an EB ever "convert up" to an AV on max difficulty/team size?

I'm going to go test that right now.
EDIT: A custom AV will spawn as an AV for a solo character on difficulty 5.
AVs definitely do spawn as AVs when you solo on max difficulty. I tried a friend's arc that ended with a /Regen AV on my Bots/Traps and he spawned as an EB the first time, but an AV when I upped the difficulty.
(And yes, it was five minutes of pounding on him withoutseeing his health bar move before I gave up. Don't bother soloing an Extreme /Regen AV unless you have ungodly amounts of -regen...)
