    Pit Fighting company leve

    For this company leve (and all the similar ones whose objective is "Defeat as many enemies as possible" does it matter how many enemies you kill beyond what is required to consider the levequest a success, e.g. as far as the reward is concerned?

    There are small seal bonuses for reaching total kill numbers over the listed.

    But if you just want to do the minimum required that is enough to get the seals listed as the reward.

    Well basically the question is am I better off doing the highest difficulty, or doing a lower one and killing faster?

    I believe they recently implemented a pretty decent bonus for difficulty. I have yet to check it out my self though.


    It use to be better to set it to the lowest difficutly and mass slaughter mobs. It might be better to crank up the difficulty now. Do some testing and report back im sure people would be interested. My self included

    The difficulty bonus is definitely considerably larger than before. I just noticed sometimes I get two amounts of seals (instead of one) for completion in addition to the difficulty bonus, and sometimes I don't. I wasn't sure if this was for some aspect of performance during the leve or not.

    E.g. Just now, I got the base 90 seals, plus 50 more, plus 100 for difficulty. Killed 20 monsters on the highest difficulty setting. I don't know if that 50 bonus gets larger with a higher kill count, though I know if you only kill just enough for the quest, you don't get those extra seals.

    On a lower difficulty, I killed 33 monsters (literally every single monster the moment it appeared) and the 50 seal bonus didn't increase. So it's definitely not worth lowering the difficulty to kill more.

    ^ is correct. In order to complete the leve you have to kill 2 of every mob. In order to have a 'great sucess' and receive the 50 seal bonus you have to kill twice that, so 4 of each mob. Once you have 4 of each dead you can just stop and stand still for the rest of the leve and wait for the timer to finish.

    4 from each monster = normal reward
    6 from each monster = normal + bonus reward

    Have they lowered the amount of monsters you need to kill? I remember the minimum amount was 4 from each monster.
