Do you think that you have the RO knowledge and RO flexibility to make do with limited and awkward resources on the spot? Then welcome to the Roguelite Arena v3 where you are not allowed to bring in any of your own items and equipment, and you will have to find and use the items given to you. Can the server assemble a team and go against the slots to assemble usable gear sets when you are given a limited amount of currency? And most importantly: are you ready to gamble?

Event Details

You may take any of your character with you, but you will be stripped of any equipment and zeny, including those inside a cart and so on. For the character that you plan to join the event with, be sure to remove all equipment and zeny from the characters. GM will not recover any items loss as a result of any attempt to bring in any items to this event. This includes any 0 weight items that are normally allowed in Transcendence. At the end of the event, all of your items from the event will be taken back as well. You bring nothing with you, and you take nothing with you as well.

You will be given a number of Event Poring Coins Stellar Jades as you are sent to the Event Facility Room. Inside this room, you can take your Event Poring Coins Stellar Jades, to exchange for different types of random gacha items. Unlike previous Roguelite Arena events, this time you cannot trade. What you decide to roll for will be what you can get for yourself. However, abundant amount of Event Poring Coins Stellar Jades should be provided to you, so make educated guesses, and with some luck, you should make a functional set of gears for your character.

Gacha items with higher chance of quality items will be more expensive than others. The random items you may obtain are curated for the event, ranging from basic gears and cards such as War Axe, Buckler, or a Pupa Card, to end game equipment such as Ice Pick[1], Diabolous Armor or Muspelite Aranea card. If you are very lucky, you may have a chance to get some MVP cards and God Items at your disposal! If you are feeling like a high roller, you can even buy the ultra expensive MVP Card Album to try your luck: it could be a Golden Thief Bug card, or the almighty Drake card. Balance your needs between how many jades you have, what gears and items you need, and how lucky you are feeling today!

This time, refinement will be done differently. Using your Event Poring Coins Stellar Jades, you can go to the special refiner who can refine your gears with no breakage rate. If your gear fail to refine, it will be returned to you. However, all cards inside the equipment is still lost. So when you card your event gears, please take that into consideration.

Once you are equipped as best as you can, you will be sent to the arena to fight multiple waves of monsters. Every 5 floors will be a boss floor. Upon successful clearance of the boss floor, you will be rewarded with more Event Poring Coins Stellar Jades to further enhance your arsenal or restock your consumables. You can enter the next round immediately, or take the special exit to return to the staging area to spend your jades. Rinse and repeat to defeat more and more monsters, get more Event Poring Coins Stellar Jades to exchange for more items and resources, and try to defeat all 25 waves of monsters.

List of NPCs available in the Roguelite Arena Event Facility Room:

• Healer (free)
• Repair NPC
• Special Refiner
• Peco/Cart/Falcon Renter (free)
• Joejoe the Resetter (requires Reset Coupon)
• Potato NPC (for you to sell and get rid of unusable gears/cards)

In addition, Event Poring Coins Stellar Jades this time have more uses than just items... but only if you are feeling lucky. You can try to gamble for a party full revive in case of a wipe or pay even more to have a pity timer guarantee revival. Instead of rolling away at the gacha machines, you can also ask a GM for a specific gear piece, but relying on pity timer guarantees will come at a huge cost to your Event Poring Coins Stellar Jades.

Once the event entrance opens, players have 30 minutes to gear themselves and set up. Once 30 minutes is up, players will enter the dungeon and fight. They will have a max of 1 hour to clear all 25 floors. We anticipate that the event in total should take 2 hours (30 min prep, 60 minutes of battle, and 30 minutes of buffer time)

GM will manually provide skills for rogues to copy (plagiarism NPC is not available since it requires relog to grant the skill)

There's certainly a lot going on for Roguelite Arena this time! Perhaps it's time to find a gambling specialist to help the team on this one...

Event Rewards

Participation rewards may include: ToH Voucher, Old Card Album, Reset Voucher, Old Red Boxes, and/or Gold

Although there may be a twist for participants who are brave and ready for a high roll... Only those who are willing to risk it all can take a gamble for the ultimate prize.

Tips and Tricks

• As no Kafra is available and you cannot take any items with you, you should try to utilize every item you have available as soon as possible. Cards that are not slotted are not helping you in your battles.

• Try to bring different characters than other participants: you need a balance of damage dealers, front-liners (tanks) and support characters as well

• It's strongly advised to focus on filling your gear slots with "anything" instead of spending all your Event Poring Coins Stellar Jades on 1 single high refine equipment for 1 single slot

• Classes such as High Priest, High Wizard, Creator and Professor are obviously powerful and they will be the backbone of the event since they can operate effectively with minimal gears. However as a trade-off, gears naturally favor non-casters.

• Classes that can use a variety of weapons are more favourable than those that must use a specific weapon type- flexibility is key in the Roguelite Arena.

• You will also be given a reset coupon as part of your rewards. So be flexible and reset as necessary by purchasing Joejoe's Reset Coupons to adapt your skill/stats to the gears available to you. This is especially true to classes that can have multiple skill builds that utilize different equipment, such as Gunslinger that uses different guns for its skills, or Stalker that can change between physical, or magic/bow build.
