With death pickups still being free, i'm grinding for slowmungus and invisibility shrooms to take a run at the bypass to tier 5 fighters when it rotates in again. They have been scarce as gently caress,countless expeditions have brought back gently caress all of any use. I found 2 slowmungus in the tower and two of the new cat-eye shrooms, but I've not tried those yet. Anyone got any tips? Either for the bypass or getting more of the necessary shrooms. I have taken a run at U-10 the first time i got to her floor, but I was completely unprepared (It was really just to see what she was like, I'd exhausted most of my gear and supplies killing the F30 boss and dying to her got me to the waiting room for free instead of paying the elevator) and she killed me in seconds. I think I hosed up the timing for hitting her, a deathburner rage move did practically nothing.

Not sure if those are anymore either. They've been nerfing shrooms like crazy lately. I posted before but the hard part of U-10 is that it's hard to melee particularly when it's all reared up (often). If you lock-on and use some dropped/expedition-reward BPM-As or other non-aimable ranged weapon, with a dragonshroom or two and stingshrooms, it takes it down quickly enough. It may be strong against fire but it's not particularly strong against piercing/ranged. Also, by the by, if you're all stocked up from a metal run, with the zero-salvage cost you're just as good to quit to main title to shortcut back to your waiting room. No use wasting KC on return elevators (for now).

I've got a couple of gold coloured assault rifles (edit: And a BPM A +1 and nail blaster +2) and golden dragonshrooms chilling in storage. They never occured to me because although I have one of every class maxed at T4 I've mainly been running an attacker with pork choppers, so I've been ignoring anything with a dex requirement. I could either do the shortcut run tomorrow (I think!) with a different class or replace one of my stickers with the half dex requirement one.

They've upgraded the guaranteed Gyakufunsha (roaming/secret shop) events to have a second floor that includes floor 31-40 materials. I heavily advise people to buy up all the top tier 10k killcoin materials whenever they visit Gyakufunsha, all the top tier stuff uses at least some of it. Also for some of the new tier armors/weapons, it'll start using the low tier materials again rather than the top tier, but you still need the top tier materials to get to that stage anyway so the above advice holds. Examples :

Have they patched out the shortcut to level 35? Its the right rotation today, I beat U-10, went up to Uchinoibu, down to koshi-yama, but there is a red lock on the escalator down from Koshi-yama to (presumably) Itsa Tsukomi, so it looks like I cant get any further without going through the 34 floor miniboss.

Also, it looks like they have closed the F35 bypass, there is definately a red lock on one of the floors every day it exists. Ah well, as my granny used to say "If you cant go round a motherfucker, go through the motherfucker". I'll try for Coen at the weekend. Just irritated I didnt unlock the gate to F34 after I killed U-10, because I'm pretty much gonna have to try for U-10 and Coen in one run. (or I could do U-10, unlock the gate then return later for coen, I suppose.... We'll see how much U-10 depletes my resources.)

If you just want to unlock the gates, shroom it (bring transparangus, dragonshrooms, and the strongest pitching machines you can find to U-10; and the highest damage and durability katanas for Coen (unless you somehow managed to score a dragon buster S from a hater). Coen is a patience game. Get one of two hits on him then GTFO. Don't get greedy, as he can one-shot a G4 and three-shot a G5.

Coen is a patience game. Get one of two hits on him then GTFO. Don't get greedy, as he can one-shot a G4 and three-shot a G5. I beat Coen earlier in the week. Shroomed U10, exactly as you describe, the plan being to go up, unlock the gate to coens floor from the elevator, back to the waiting room, then go back today with an express pass letting me bring pretty much all the shrooms and weapons. Good plan. Except I wasnt paying enough attention and while looking for the gate back down from cohens floor to unlock it I went slightly too far into a room and triggered Coen. Worefully underprepared, I only had whatever shrooms I hadnt needed to beat U10, armour hanging off me in tatters and a few weapons in varying states of repair. I ended up dropping about 4 death metals (yes, yes, I know, but at that point I decided that I valued the time it would take to do this again, including grinding for more goddamn shrooms over the death metal) but I did beat him. He actually wasnt as bad as I was thinking, the deaths were mainly from him lobbing corpses at me (which I wasnt expecting), and from the camera loving me when I was too close to a wall so I didnt see him charging. For the record, 2 slowmunguses, 1 lifeshroom and 1 guard shroom are Not Enough Mushrooms for a level 4 fighter to be taking on Coen, especially when you dont have great weapons (was using the Pork Chopper +3 as my main damage, I only actually researched the Katana AFTER beating Coen). I would have been kicking myself if all my weapons broke before Coen died as I had spent that death metal and I dont fancy my chances of punching him to death. I'll revisit him later with a level 5 fighter, better weapons and armour, but for now killing him should have opened some more gates I can use to get higher. I'm currently grinding for black metals to improve my armour (Need one more War Ensemble Black, but gently caress me it does not want to drop) and level up my shiny new Tier 5s. Gonna go back and do some of the lower level "climb from X to Y without doing Z" quests that reward death metal to recoup the ones I spent.

Remember that the Tectonic Terror event changed about two weeks ago so that the Gyakufunsha spawn is now 3x a week and besides f3 omoki will now spawn on F27 yukiyoshi. 40k black metal and 50k red metals  oh and also sells the tier 5 iron/copper/aluminum/wood

Welp, salvage costs are back on as of today. Last night I took my first and potentially last run at the final boss with an Attacker with a couple of shrooms (no invisible ones though). Got halfway through his health bar before getting housed once the guardshroom ran out. I don't feel like trying again with a 250K KC failure fee, and I don't feel like farming transparungus, so I think this is going to be it for a while. Fun game considering I put $0 into it over about 5 months.

New patch hit, and there are some changes; A free continue per day. This is a good change, obviously. Especially as I'm in the mid-high thirties now and most of my deaths come from motherfuckers sending hunters after me wearing armour that I can barely scratch with my most upgraded weapons and weapons which tear through a lifeshroom and kill me in 2-3 hits, which feels cheap as hell. I try to keep a useful shroom on hand so I can throw it and run if I need to, but sometimes it doesnt work out, or I use it on a hunter on one floor only for another identical one to catch me on the next. It will definately encourage me to take more risks I think. Not as good as when recovery was free, obviously, but still something. A machine next to the escalator which charges you 1 death metal to transport 5 things from your inventory to your waiting room. I was thinking the other day that something like this would be useful as it could let you send materials home without having to end your run. Seems a little too expensive at 1 DM/5 items. There are apparently free ones occasionally in certain places but I havent seen one of those yet. I'm not sure if this is a deliberate change or a bug to be honest, but post-patch every single weapon and piece of armour I've got from expeditions has been fully repaired, and ranged weapons have had a good amount of ammo. Again, a good change, especially as they seem to have taken funshrooms out of the possible expedition reward pool (or at least I havent got one. In fact I havent actually seen one at all in the game, and I've been looking). Gives you weapons that are actually competative at the levels you are currently pushing through while you do the never ending grind for green/black/red metals. All in, it seems like they are making changes designed to help you push up through the levels a little faster and encourage you to make a longer run before returning to your waiting room.

A free continue per day sounds really nice. Encourages regular shallow dives for things like guaranteed shop days, gold chest runs or Okusa days. Oh, and my profile says I have 350+ hours (albeit many idle) and I have found exactly 3 funshrooms.

Hard to tell if this counts Rest Mode time since it's "always connected" for the purposes of timers etc.

Shame, I thought it was actually quite a smart move to encourage/help people move up the tower as they got actual strong weapons that could carry them for a short time, but not too long as your degredation would be high if you havent researched that weapon already.

Didn't see it mentioned here but Floors 41- 50 have been released plus 6 Star Fighters! You start off with the option to buy a 6 Star All-Rounder (I assume after you reach floor 40/41) and it costs 100k KC for the fighter. I imagine the rest of the cast gets unlocked around floor 45 or so. Word is that it's hard as gently caress.

Yeah be real careful when getting the 6 star fighters. All the Haters come equipped with tier 4 armors and weapons. Floors 41-50 are a crazy hard. Every enemy is a hater and the majority of them are G6 dev haters with T4 gear. Not only that, you can only bring 5 items when entering the area (7 with an express pass) and all the floors have randomized objectives such as kill all haters. There may or may not be ways to return to lobby. If you're really unlucky you'll go room after room without rest until you die. The 41-50 floors have lots of rare materials (Ultra-pure Iron, etc) and Purple Metals which I've personally not seen a use for yet. It's highly recommended to go there with at least basic T4 gear. White Steel equipment is your best bet since it has crazy durability.

Don't loving bother with T6 right now and stick to T5 Striker. It'll gimp killcoin hater farming big time on lower floors due to the increased risk/lethality they cause, and it'll make simple poo poo like just running around the 20s/30s more risky when that super t4 hater can surprise you with a 2 hit combo. Also the current killcoin drought really ruins the entire game, especially with the T6 buttfuck haters that retroactively replace all the old haters (and they all seem to be loaded up with a bunch of the top tier decals too). Roll too late and get clipped by a machete hater on the new floors? Well you have to farm for 30+ minutes minimum to revive that character. But note that all the haters on the new floors only give 100kc (for some reason one hater on each floor gives the standard amount), and the treasure floors pretty much pay for your second set of gear you are pretty much required to buy halfway up the new floors or a pittance towards the durability value loss of your White Steel gear.

If it helps they seem to be doing a summer event, broadly similar to the easter one. Except instead of mushroom eggs you eat for experience its "parasol shrooms" that you sell for killcoins. Picked up a bronze one, sells for 500 coins. Not really worth picking up tbh. Then I got a couple of golds from expeditions, they sell for 20,000 killl coins each. Thats more like it. Havent seen a silver one yet, because I've been running low floors for materials/leveling a new fighter and sending expeditions to high floors.

I thought we'd get a bandaid fix for killcoins off of this event till they do a real fix, but it seems like that was wishful thinking.

Came late to the party on this game (only recently got a PS4), but liking it so far. Uncle Death is the skater punk Manny Calavera I didn't know I needed. Just beat So my understanding is that now that 2-star fighters are unlocked, all Haters will be 2-star, potentially lvl 50, and geared appropriately? Meaning that I have to go in with upgraded gear even when material farming if I don't want to get surprise murdered? I guess that's not too bad, I've got a bunch of 1-star +4 gear and even a few bits of 2-star +2/3 gear. If needed I can always poopsock KC by sending out hourly expeditions.

Yes, upgrading your fighter barracks with higher grade characters increases the haters' grade accordingly. One problem you might run into now is that haters will be the max grade of fighter you have no matter what, but you might not have one onhand, in which case they'll slaughter you pretty good. It kind of sucks later on because the gap between your health/damage and theirs grows wider as you go. However, haters are super weak to mushrooms that inflict stun or sleep or so on. So if you have one onhand when you encounter one that's way above your level, you can just toss it and run and they'll lose interest.

I have an all-rounder and collector at 35 now, tempted to stomp/eat a few more golden critters to get at least the collector to 50. Go for it; There are always more golden critters. I've not logged in in a month or so, but I was getting gold critters in uncle death boxes reasonably regularly, plus you can farm golden snails on 13F Osaka if you really need them later on. And/or keep a decent throwing mushroom on hand (a brainshroom or sleepshroom or whatever) to get you out of a jam. Nothing says you actually have to fight the haters if you can sneak past them or run away from them instead.

My understanding is that the arena was supposed to be closed off from the 11F side, and I was supposed to loop around 12F or 13F and come down to 11F from above. Then I could open the arena, fight GOTO-9, then get access to the 12F with the elevator. Did some weird glitch happen, or did they change the map in the latest patch?

Man, if I use this death metal I can probably beat White Steel, but it's the last one I've got. I wish the one free respawn a day thing was still going on.  Unrelated, I assume shortcuts are okay for the 'climb the tower while killing everything' quests, right? They're so tedious but it'll put me to enough coins to get one of my Haters back.

Recently got to 16F, unlocked 3-star guys, but haven't fought the midboss yet because I'm a dork who likes to over-gear and over-prepare, even for midbosses. Been collecting spoils from my expedition guys like a digital slumlord. Now that I've got 3-star guys (the first 3 classes anyway), should I be rocking 3-star stuff, or upgraded 2-star stuff? What's the usual 'farming loop' to get materials and blueprints below 16F? Elevator to 13F, work my way down to 11F Seyane, then back up again?
