How the math works
Planning model v3: tier weights I = 2, II = 4, III = 7, IV = 11, V = 16. Add the selected packages, mode pressure, Seals (+3), Scars (+4), then subtract Favor support (−2). Multiply by 1 + 0.15 × (number of packages − 1). Round to the nearest integer, minimum 0.
Mode pressure = 0 in Standard; in Elimination, max(0, 4 + (30 − reference starting Lives) / 2). Reference Lives are the two-Guardian values before trio scaling and rounding; equivalent editions have identical pressure. Cap is a recovery ceiling, not starting pressure. Built-in resources are counted once. Hardcore uses Seals +6, Favor −1, Scars +4, and a +12 Hardcore row. This is a new, uncalibrated planning index, not an official Volume 2 balance rating or a completion forecast.
