Let arena characters enter the infinite dungeon

#1 Post by Frumple »

Pretty much as per the title. Had the thought that it might be interesting to let arena characters transfer over to the ID, either after victory or possibly after death, as well.

Could see starting you off on the level of the ID equal to the waves you cleared (divided by two for the 60 wave mode), to give you some room to make up for the arena's fairly sparse equipment.

You can start at ID lvl 1. You can dive.

Granted that you have ID unlocked.

Yyeessss? I figured a high level character (arena winner, ferex) wouldn't particularly want to slog through 15-20+ levels of base chaff, though, and then another dozen or so of mostly-chaff. Just that they'd want/need to start a little lower than where an ID chara that reached their character level would be at, to make up for the comparatively worse equipment.

Maj'Eyal's post-game ID starts you off later in the thing too, iirc. Something roughly equivalent.

ID unlock would be required, sure. Maybe make an arena victory an alternate unlock condition, though.
