I have mixed emotions on this challenge. The spawn rates of random battles is out of control. My highest encounters on a single floor is 9, like every couple steps a new battle. That’s so annoying. From 6 to 10 I fought 34 fights. From 11-15 I fought 13 fights. From 16-20 24 fights. I didn’t count 1 to 5 but it felt like 20ish fights. That’s nearly 100 fights in 20 floors. They aren’t hard yet, but it’s boring. I like planning ahead and knowing the line up might get drained down severely towards the end but man… This is so grindy. I think a set number of fights per floor is more ideal, 2-3 per floor plus the boss. It’s also nonsensical to make these dungeons maze like. We aren’t exploring, it’s always a 50/50 shot to go the northern or southern passage. That just seems so menial and wastes time. ---

FYI, floor 40 is now also anti last biter. Albeit a rather weak one ---

I didn’t think so, but maybe it has, I always do it with a last biter through 40. This time it killed me the first time I tried it, unless auto protect doesn’t hit you’ll die. Although I was use Draigia and got hit by Flavern so maybe penguini would’ve survived On another note, the new super epic is kind of trash imo… ---

Even works with throw I believe. Someone tested that with Ziberius Other than that: it indeed feels really like grinding at lower levels. I was thinking of like a shortcut for high leveled players but not sure how that would look like… ---

The other new mons were pretty good imo. Especially Robinator is extremely good. Even cryptblade can pull off some shenanigans but the ogre thing is pretty useless. ---

Went from floor 1-72 in a single go. At floor 92 now. Will be Trying for 100 in this weekend probably. That was pretty non luck dependent. Had a solid strategy going into this ^.^ ---

Found that Wolfrozor is a nice option in this event, good power and great at keeping himself alive with flip self and hold ground. With Blightwyrm too, I might even make it to 57 this time. ---

Accidentally life flipped my penguin at floor 45 for no reason on my first run and got it killed. Decided to call it a run at 50 because of that, as I had no idea how much further I’d make it. But in those 50 floors, I went through 186 encounters, including the boss encounter of each floor. That means I went through an average of nearly 3 random encounters per floor. My stats by floor 25 was 76 encounters, meaning I averaged only 2 random encounters per floor. Although this discrepancy is easily explained by the larger floors I’ve noticed, with floors above 40 steadily getting larger.  That means in floors 26-50, I went through 110 encounters, including the bosses. Those floors everaged a little over 3 encounters per floor. Running a team with currently 4 DDs, 2 TTs (Lavaronix), 2 GTs (Serapheon), 1 stun healer, That event demon w/ sac heal, Haniwel, Godfeather, Frostrider and Shinobi, Rob and Blitz. Aiming for floor 80 again this time, as I’m not sure if I want to spend the time trying for 90 and I know I can’t get 100. ---

He is an extremely poor man’s Ziberus. And double retribution isn’t even that strong with a lot more base attack stat behind it. He is fast, I guess, so if he is in your front line you’ll get a free stealth team mate, still he is rather lame and situational ---

Just finished floor 40 and got ogre. Not really motivated to move on to be honest. At the beginning i always like the dungeon challenge because you can try out some new frontlines but after 40 floors the motivation somehow is gone 😃 [Next page](https://www.neomonstersforum.com/t/dungeon-challenge/4896.md?page=2)
