    NPC Kiuka is a Joke

    By now we should be allow at least more than one 4* cards or if that is not gonna happen you must sort this NPC because having two 4* AND 5* and ON TOP OF THAT CHAOS.

    It is doable and I have won several times but this NPC is broken. Btw card still no drop.

    Worst case scenario increase drop rate from this.

    The reason the basic tt rules don't seem to apply to npc is the reason I stopped playing that minigame. It's just plain unfair that npc can use all the cards they want and we're restricted in our choices. I'm not interested in a game that gives npc an unfair advantage. Have npc follow their own game's rules!

    I found triad card rates have been generous for 4.0. Every npc I've played in 4.0 has a weak side that might not be clear at first. Even in chaos it can be exploited

    Coming here to complain about Kiuka as well. I've beaten every 4.0 Trial NPC and Kiuka is just absurd and not fun.

    I wouldn't have a problem with the limitations and rules if the drop rates weren't so trash for like half the cards in the game. Japanese game devs sigh...

    Nothing will ever even come close to Lewena pre nerf... this one is just a mild annoyance in comparison

    I agree that Kiuka is not fun to play against at all, especially with a stacked deck, Chaos, and no rules to give you an advantage.

    I did get a >50% win rate out of Warrior of Light, Estinien, Ysayle, Hilda, Kal Myhk, but it took a lot of work getting there and sometimes you just have no chance at all.

    Oh MONTH after, yesterday in the morning i got the card. I spent 1 hour to 3 every day to challenge this npc. The drop rate should be tweaked a bit.

    As far as I'm concerned, the drop rate is not the issue, but the fact that he uses Chaos while his deck consists of two 5* and two 4* cards, among others. It's a big problem. Therefore, I agree with OP. I don't mind low drop rates when there isn't some real annoying rule like Chaos. Idle Imperial in Mor Dhona for example. Low drop rate on Gaius, but there isn't some incredibly irritating rule that screws you over half the time. I enjoy battling this NPC for the three hundredth time.

    Personally, I got the Hien card from Kiuka after 35 wins, 26 draws and 12 losses, with a deck consisting of Ysayle, Estinien, Roundrox, Lucia and Cloud Strife. I was using Warrior of Light at first, but switched to Cloud after a few games. His double 9 gave me many wins, allowing me to take back my own cards that were taken.

    While the Chaos rule is irritating though, at least it's not nearly as annoying as the old Random rule that various NPCs had.
