Tampering with arenas did something weird, Tenboro, lol.

Played all arenas up to the 50 round one, at Nintendo difficulty, level 110+, I always encounter monsters with a SP bar. Every single one of them.
But in the 55 rounds arena, from round 50 onwards I started encountering 2-3 monsters per round without an SP bar (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/huh.gif)

edit: happened again in the following arena:

Spawned Monster H: MID=148621 (Fang Wei) LV=126 HP=7482
Spawned Monster G: MID=186862 (Holyloli) LV=126 HP=4096
Spawned Monster F: MID=101200 (Verydead) LV=126 HP=5864
Spawned Monster E: MID=25 (Mutant Peacock) LV=126 HP=3705
Spawned Monster D: MID=210467 (Mindless Boy) LV=126 HP=5354
Spawned Monster C: MID=110495 (Arashi Yagatake) LV=126 HP=5035
Spawned Monster B: MID=138958 (Sphincter Mutilator) LV=126 HP=5864
Spawned Monster A: MID=154722 (Harambe) LV=126 HP=7981

Those arenas haven't been touched, so I don't think that's related to the update.

Gems can actually drop mid-round and generally do (confirmed just now). However since they are unlike other drops (credits, potions, equipment, etc) in this respect, perhaps the gem drop rate alone was not doubled? It feels doubled, but I haven't confirmed it.

Tenboro knows.
He quite surely did touch something about how late monsters in arenas are randomly picked.

I was wondering - and i dont know whether it was discussed in the past:

Would it be possible to carry some of the XP we earn in isekai over to persistent ? For example, like it is in diablo 3 seasons, something along those lines, if you are familiar.
Does nothing to maxxed out players, helps simple, mid lvl folks, like me.

Just an idea, dont burn me for it please (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/blush.gif)

If I recall Tenboro was considering that when S1 started and maybe moving a bit of the forge exp too, but don't know what came out of that, but hopefully it carries over.

I just completely passed on doing the first isekai. Did all of you who tried find it worthwhile?

Not really, but it was significantly less friendly than the current one. 5x static modifier on experience meant weird distribution of levels between players (now you have it lower but increasing with every new tower level to significantly higher than x5). High tower was not merely hard but incredibly long - people at the top needed to play for more than 10 hours to clear a floor. PAB bonus was supposed to be for the top 100/50/25 players, now it for clearing floor 30/40/50. Early bird awarded double stamina regen instead of increased drops. In general it was significantly more exhausting.

rounds without schoolgrils in schoolgirls arenas just waste of time, stamina and everything else.
cut them down, mash them, cast them into the fire, destroy them!

I play Isekai for a few days mainly to participate in the test of new code. To me it is worthwhile to spend a short period of time checking out what will eventually come to Persistent. There is also a very small chance that I would find a bug. If that ever happened, I would report it and feel good about my contribution. I do not aim for a high Tower ranking, do not try to farm trophies, etc. since I am not willing to commit that amount of time. I guess the best answer to your question is another question. What do you hope to gain by playing Isekai?

Pfudor have better equipment drop and more credits drop, it should drain more stamina than other difficulty.
Pfudor dwd grante T7 equipment as clear bonus,so it should drain another extra stamina than other arenas.

My 2ct: it's hard to keep stamina up - HV is a game of old men, in that way. Early SG rounds suck, because I have to waste stamina to get to the real challenge, and the trophies. The early rounds are just mindless clicking anyway, we could do without them.

Question to anyone who unlocked arenas past To Kill a God.
How is the maximum number of rounds scaling?

I hope the "it scales to 100" Tenboro said means that only the lv 500 arena has 100 rounds, and the previous ones have less than 100, and not just that at a certain point all arenas reach 100 rounds and then every arena has 100 rounds.


About the tower would be more interesting, too, if instead of capping to 100 rounds, it capped to less, and to increase difficulty, what happened was that the total number of monsters increased above 10, creating literal hordes.

I'm to The Trio and the Tree and the only arena that has a different round count was Graduation (12 -> 10). So it looks like all the SG will be 100 rounds.

End of Days has 3 monsters per round till round 50, feels real bad drop and stamina wise....

Item World does the same, past round 23, when the number of monster you can encounter reaches the max (7~9 normal enemies + 0~1 elites)

Spawned Monster I: MID=74984 (No107 Galaxyeyes Tachyondragon) LV=173 HP=7173
Spawned Monster H: MID=136005 (Mana Ouma) LV=173 HP=5770
Spawned Monster G: MID=207697 (Kira0005) LV=173 HP=7720
Spawned Monster F: MID=184341 (Shadow Portal Warrior 19) LV=173 HP=6636
Spawned Monster E: MID=210392 (Nero Giant 1) LV=173 HP=7720
Spawned Monster D: MID=132939 (Ultima Weapon 133 Tks) LV=173 HP=7173
Spawned Monster C: MID=2 (Tentacle Monster) LV=173 HP=4597
Spawned Monster B: MID=205189 (Tsukiko Azusa Beast 10) LV=173 HP=7720

Yikes.

I figured out a couple more reasons to keep the low arenas.

• They can disappear before you are strong enough to Pfudor them once and you'll be forever in shame
• You can choose to keep them by never unlocking higher arenas, especially in isekai where there are no titles

Wait I'm not sure about that last one.

For the soulfused equipments that get sent to Persistent, do they keep all the upgrades? I was wondering since it's much easier to get Crystalized Phazon and HGC in Isekai, it could be very profitable to 'smuggle' them into Persistent via upgrade and salvage.

Nah
materials and potencies are stripped first

Just out of curiosity: I would like to know how many players participated in the first season?

I'm asking this because, at this point, as I haven't cleared the tower today, my ranking is 168th.

That is an interesting idea. I just completed First Blood on Pfudor and it was quiet a challenge without Spark of Life or Silence. Players who can complete all lower Arenas on Pfudor before they disappear certainly deserve a pat on the back.

Edit: I forgot about scrolls. Still is a challenge that did not exist before and it is nice to have another challenge.
