I've been using that script for a while now too - and I've noticed the same thing - however, I've noticed that as I climb in RSP and overall points, the value threshold increases as well...
What I mean is, back when I first started using the script that assigns the numeric value to NPCs based on their relative color (with the lower the number, being a more difficult / harder to kill NPC / aka: "redder" color NPC), I used to find NPCs that were in 200 range occasionally - as I've gained points and RSP over the months since I started using the script, the number "ranks" of NPCs is getting worse and worse... in the last month, I haven't found 1 single NPC with a numeric value lower than 450 (I believe that the numeric value is based on the color scale of the NPC, if I'm not mistaken) however, despite this problem, I'm finding huge NPCs as well as small ones...
For example, both of these NPCs show a rank of 460 to me:

How can both of those NPCs be the exact same color to me?... do you see the difference between those NPCs, it's freaking ridiculous...
There is no possible way that both of these NPCs should be the same exact color to me (since they both have the exact same numeric value, I assume that means that they are the exact same color, that's how it works, right?)
Or am I missing something?
