Really good, fantastic Rage Attack and one of my favorite Goretastics.

Claws are fantastic when upgraded. Also, having a Poison Boost decal = even more silly damage.

So I was kind of thinking of starting this but I'm a little intimidated.
Do you have to really be all in with the game or not at all? Aren't people able to steal your shit and stuff like that? Will it be not worth it to just jump in randomly to play every once in a while?

Thats perfectly fine. Remember to use up all of your splithium before logging out and you are good. There is still plenty of stuff to do, unlock and upgrade even without the stuff that might get stolen.
Have fun!
As long as you use your KillCoins and SPLithium, no one's gonna raid you.
I would recommend logging in daily to get the rewards, but you can just play every now and then and dont have to worry about your stuff if you spend it.

Does anyone have any recommended floors for cloak shrooms? I used to get some on 11-19 expeditions, but these past few days I have had zero luck. Not sure if I'm just sending to bad rooms for it or what.
I'm about to just give up and go for slomo shrooms in 21-25, having much better luck stockpiling those.

Are you using mushrooms effectively? Go in with a couple of the shrooms that make you invisible and shell never attack you, plus a couple of the scorpion shrooms that increase your attack a ton and just wail on her. It'll be a little rough the first time since you're still using grade 3 fighters, but you can do it with some prep. I think I just used the machete mostly my first kill, went in with four rage and just spammed it on her.
Haven't had a chance to play this in a few days, was excited to see more stuff on PSN. Then I saw the price, 18 for the monthly express pass? Thats taking the piss. Thats more expensive than an MMO subscription fee with nowhere near the same content (the extra sting of paying more than the US barely registers). I've thrown about 50 quid at the game and I've certainly got my moneys worth, pity I would have opted into the express pass at a more reasonable price.

I was getting via expeditions from 11-13.I swear I have found zero cloak shrooms when going through the 20s, just very unlucky.

They spawn more in the teens I think?
I didnt get more than ~40k from a fight even with >5k points, so prob not if you arent raiding for resources anyways.
Really? I guess I've been unlucky as I've only run into maybe two of them in my entire time in the teen floors

I'm working on a Rare Material chart. Anyone who has definitive proof of existence of certain materials on certain floors/locations, please feel free to post them. I am having a hard time finding anything of similar magnitude online.
So far, I have F11 GOTO-9 Boss drops Candle Wolf Green Metal. I have F22 KAWABE gold chest trap room is supposed to spawn ??? Black Metal, but I haven't seen for sure. I'll share the Google Sheet if anyone wants to help.
I don't care about the easy stuff - Cotton, Copper, Hemp, Oil, etc. I don't know if there's any real rhyme or reason to those. But the rare mats...
Also, I'm contemplating trying to put together a list of Expedition floors to have higher rates of things you'd want - Pillbugs, Invis shrooms, brain shrooms, etc. Going to start with the rare mats, though.

Hit 41 hours. I'm impressed at how much this game has grabbed my attention.
Fight rewards seem to largely scale off of rescues and captures. If you arent getting several of those, you're going to essentially end up with the base reward which seems to be 40k for winning side.
All black metals and i believe all green metals (sometimes equipment or coins).
Oh interesting. I dont normally capture because it opens me up to being raided but maybe I'll try that next time.

I'd do some unspeakable things for a HD version of Killer 7 on PS4.
Has anyone found a consistent spot for Wool?
Need to upgrade that priest set
I always run into them on Tamata and Tagahara (FL 3 and 4) with regular consistency.

Grade 4 unlocked. Finally!
You can release them right away, i think it just keeps track of how many you captured during the fight.

Am I crazy or did they remove the Her Name in Blood song from the radio?
Also Jin-Die's music isn't on there is it? (I don't think that one ever was)

My play flowchart in case anyone is interested. It kind of fell into place organically as I was playing, but it's fun to lay it out like this.
1) Start up PS4 (game is almost always on suspend).
2) Go to the freezer, accept prompt for returned expeditions.
3) Clean out rewards box:
- Retrieve single SPL rewards (why are these even a thing?).
- Retrieve items, cook / store / sell them as appropriate.
- If still over 50 items in reward box, retrieve SPL / money rewards below a threshold (ex. SPL rewards below 300 / coin rewards below 2000).
4) Pick a character, select a goal (typically reach an unexplored zone, either at the top or in the side paths), equip them accordingly, and go for it.
5) If successful, go to 6. If I died, go to 8.
6) If any characters dead, and enough money on hand to revive them, do so. Often, the money a character had in hand before dying (and that you get upon reviving them), is enough to revive the next one.
7) If all characters alive and money > 20k / 30k, retrieve enough money from rewards box to buy mushroom soup (like in point 3, retrieve lesser rewards first to optimize reward box space). Alternatively, if over 10k, spend money in armor and bank it.
8) Decide whether to keep playing (go to 4) or call it a day (continue to 9).
9) If anyone is still dead, revive them with money from the rewards box.
10) Send all characters on expeditions.
By following this method, I never have any money in the actual bank when logged out or even when I'm exploring the tower. The rewards box acts as my actual bank; any money on hand is instantly spent on resurrections, equipment, or mushroom soup. Since I'm consequently never raided (nor would I care if I was), this allows me to have everyone on expeditions all the time (I have 8 characters, so I send 7 out; you have to keep one as your playable character), which makes the system self-sustaining. It also allows me to quit whenever I feel like it, which is one of the most important things to me.

F23 is the hardest boss I've fought so far. Get ready for pain, haha. What's worse is that he saw through my Invis shrooms. I suspect it was a glitch...One that cost me 2 DM because I was NOT about to run that shit again.

I finally beat the level 10 first "boss" guy. Now that I have access to different types of fighters, do they have higher skill caps? Should I be trying to get rid of the default all around fighters and buying new ones?

God I need a better way of getting MILK Black metals. This run to the floor 22 chest isn't terrible but i've had some real bad luck. On one run today it gave me A FUCKING HOCKEY STICK. I was miffed at that one. If I get green metal I'm let down but I can still use it but a hockey stick!? Come on now.
Yeah, you can watch them, but you never really know until you test them.
A good 'get the hell out of there' plan should always be on deck though.

I made it to the top of the tower after spending the weekend traveling across the country on an airplane...Suda 51 probably wrote that ending lol. I'm happy with the game. I threw in $20 to support the game and used it mostly for storage, any dms for revives I pretty much got from login and quests. Gonna prep myself for jackal hunting soon. Tip for floor 40.
Get those fists prepped and someone with decent str. Alternatively I beat the sub boss by dropping down and picking up a weapon after spending a death metal. The twist at the beginning of the floor really messed with me. Made me spend the dm i got from quests.
I kept seeing these higher level haters and just ran and figured I had to grind a bunch, but I am glad I decided to stop dicking around and went for it. Now I feel like it's moving at a more normal pace. I'm sure that will change at some point, though. I have only just beat Coen and reached the 4th floor.
So I beat the level 10 Boss,secured the 11th floor elevator and went back to the waiting room...game tells me I can buy a new fighter but when I open the freezer,I have my 2 other maxed level 25 in there and then expedition and settings...I cant buy another fighter,unless I need to remove one and make a brand new one that will be able to level higher then 26...?

You have like 3 or 4 slots when you start. Unless you spend SPLithium to upgrade the freezer to add slots, you'll need to destroy a character to make room.
