    Bonus is a poor choice of words on my part. If your arm/armor is +24, chests that would raise that will have no effect on you unless you are PoTD level 49 (24x2 + 1). That's why I suggest farming for exp on the last level before the boss.

    It's not in duty finder, so there is no in progress joining.

    If you finish 50 you start over at 1. If you leave before you finish it rolls you back to when you entered 41. The point is if you got nothing out of 41-49, don't finish the dungeon and start over at 1 when you can save yourself 2 hours.

    Don't skip mobs and get to level 60 asap. Weapon/armor level unsyncs when you're 2x their level, aka, if your weapon is +29, it will stay sync'd till you're lv 59. So not skipping mobs at all on 31-40 and farming the 1st floors of 41-50 will get you higher chances at getting productive silver chests.

    Yeah this should be tweaked. Just did a 40-50 where 2 people left on 49 because they didn't get any upgrades. Luckily the other person with me was a healer and got +3 so we were able to duo the boss. I'm not sure the final boss would have been possible as 2 dps unless one of us was a summoner or something.

    Possible suggestion: Make clearing floor 50 give guaranteed silver chest drop from final boss, where the worst possible outcome is +1 to both weapon and armor. Low chance for +3.

    I think they really need to add some sort of RNG insurance to counter this. Either lower levels still need to have *some* chance to level your weapon, so it doesn't feel like wasted time going through them when you're close to +30/+30, or there needs to be some way to guarantee at least some progress each time you do the full 50 floors. That way, you don't feel like you're punishing yourself for completing Floor 50.

    Either a guaranteed +1/+1 for clearing 50 or the ability to trade in Potsherds for a +1 to either Arm or Armor would probably do the trick, since clearing 50 does give you a Potsherd as it is.

    Right now, when you've got only one or two levels to go, and you're staring at a level 49 run in which you got no upgrades...it really does make either wiping or leaving more attractive than doing the whole two-hour slog through floors 1-40 again.

    if you choose in progress on your duty finder it will indeed send you to a potd in progress instance, happened to me a few times now , once even in the middle of the last 50 boss fight, meh easy item at the end at least lol

    Does it save as you leave the instance thru the portal or will it also save if you choose to leave but after the boss is dead? If so you could leave on floor 50 but not screw anyone over.

    Just need a aetherpool chest to spawn after each boss with guaranteed boost provided you meet the level restrictions.

Which means the last floor is the only place I'l get my level up I need. Now say if rng was being a "Diadem" and you didn't level your gear once, in that place during that floor. If you continue onwards, well your gonna have to run it all over again to 1-10, BUT...if you leave the dungeon dooming your team members. you can have a noher shit at getting your levels you wanted.

    Just so you know I never seen this happened, but the thought sparked in my head because this rng bs will make players wanna go "F*** this place!" That is all.

    Also a quick non topic related question. Anyone know if the Return Cairnes (w/e) actually allow you to keep your gear levels? And also how the heck do they work? XD
    I would hardly recomend you that dont do this, stoping the progress of random party memmbers on purpose is a great offense and it could have serious consequences.

    You asked if people do this? well they do it, but the should never do it.
    It happened to me. I was with on a party with random party members. We were on room 49 when one guy said to another one ( possible premade ) that he wasnt going to have the full upgrade on time and asked if we could wipe, the orther guy agreed and so he pulled everything he could and trigger the traps, we had no healers, both died really fast and me and the blm did our best to stay alive but we fail.

    I reported this 2 guys, and I got an answer from a GW inmediatly, he told me that I did the right on reporting this. Stopping the progress of ramdom ppl on purpose is reportable.

    So yea i sugguest you to do this with a premade but non random party memembers.
