Changing a lead score based on another score

Is there any on-platform way to increment or decrement a lead score based on another score?

For example, let's say I have ScoreA = 10 and ScoreB = 3. I would want to Change Score A such that it's decremented by ScoreB and is updated to 7.

I think I could just build a webhook to do this, but at scale it would be a little slow, and I wanted to see if there was any way to do this within Marketo without flooding our queued campaigns with webhooks and potentially slowing things down.

Nope.

Don't worry about the perf impacts of webhooks prematurely. Depends on how many calls you're making at peak.

Up to hundreds of thousands or millions per hour during high peaks

Marketo doesn't like to do millions of anything per hour, really (even internally). So that's not gonna fly at all with webhook. I would recommend you do these shifts in an external database and then flush them back to Marketo once/day.
