Kenji would successfully cleave through one of them! However, in familiar fashion, his luck wasn't the best! He'd find himself jump kicked backwards onto the floor! And one Crawler would leap into the air, planning on stomping down onto his throat! Oh no!

As Kenji traveled along the path, he would be greeted with another option. To continue going straight, or to take a left.

However, as he made this journey, he would be attacked by three more of the Crawlers from before! They would charge at him, planning on stomping him to death!

Approved!

We were against second dungeon runs initially, but the first group to go into it was essentially a test run and they got much less than later groups despite putting in more effort. The only reason they're even strong is because of their post count, later trials, etc, while characters of later dungeon runs are at their level without having all of that.

Rest assured, the Medium dungeon will be MUCH harder than Numa. But we're still trying to work the kinks out for the Easy dungeon.

The Shinrai did so well because they knew what they were walking into from the start. While the first group, we had no idea what to expect, as well as it was Brandon's first attempt at GMing such a thing.

Rewards will be substantially nerfed for later runs, to eventually not providing any EXP whatsoever.

Medium dungeon will likely require a post count of around 300 to even enter it. Enemies will probably have stats of 60 minimum. Expect enemies to have Musous. Enemy count will be doubled. We'll probably implement nerfs on item rewards at that point too.

The IC immersion means nothing, because as Shigenobu stated, it's easy to just make a throwaway thread for that purpose.

As for triple platinuming it... the Shinrai did earn it. Not a single bad move on their part, and they were well prepared. Not even us staff expected them to grow that powerful though. And they did give up about 20 items a piece for the final rewards. Takehiro had explosives too but we still silver ranked everything.

We'll probably increase the difficulty of the Easy dungeon too though. Right now, I'm okay with the Shinrai being strong if only because they're pretty much the only villain types on the board. (and they're not exactly just beating everyone up in open threads) And they are okay with being nerfed if it's a necessity, as can be seen by Sagi giving away a lot of his items. But no one else even made it close to the boss in the middle chamber. That was where the bulk of the rewards came from.

I'm not up for limiting the number of items to like three per dungeon though. The maze is filled with plenty of items, if one is willing to take the time to find them. It kills any desire to explore other paths there. The traps doesn't even give an item. The middle chamber is a ton of items due to monster kills. We could probably cut down the amount of items they drop there, but the boss will always give much better loot because... well, he's the boss.

But all in all, we don't want to take away all of the Shinrais items because they were the first to ever pull a triple platinum and they earned their loot and we already stole about 30k worth of Yen from them due to how many items they gave up. It's a heavy hit despite everything.

Kenji hit the jackpot! He would reach a dead end, but would find two chests side by side! No enemies to guard them either!

The distraction would work, and Yukimura would be able to fling the men aside to continue his assault on the hideout! However, the other runners would reach the main group in time, sounding a bell to signal that there was trouble! Yukimura was about to deal with the main force! And as he continued onward, he would find dozens of men at the ready, firing rifles and arrows at him alike while men on foot would charge at him with weapons drawn!
