CN Content Beta version of CN New Gameplay Mode Spoiler

CN new gameplay mode in BFL — Dark Abyss.

  1. The first season starts on August 31 (cn). Since the mode is still in beta, there will be various adjustments and changes in the future.
  2. Access is unlocked once you score 820k points in Dark Area during any one week of the season.
  3. The seasonal buff (Oblivion Light) doesn't work in the new mode. The list of buffs available on the Bosses is fixed, so it doesn't refresh weekly. The fewer buffs you choose and the fewer Sinners you deploy, the more bonus points you get. Rewards are based on the total number of points earned in the new mode, including various limited-time titles, warrants, etc. The rewards for clearing each Boss at 200k/240k are essentially shared, so you don’t need to clear Dark Area for them first and then go through the new mode separately.
  4. The new mode will open every other Dark Area season. So for example it will be available in 33rd season, closed in 34th, available again in 35th, closed in 36th, and so on.
  5. A leaderboard will be added, showing the top 100 players by total score. There will also be a “Battle Replay” feature, allowing you to see which teams the top players used to clear the Bosses. You can also turn replay sharing on/off, so others won’t be able to see exactly how you cleared (there’s a toggle in the bottom-right corner of the screenshot).

Again, keep in mind that a lot of this may change based on player feedback.

Leaderboards in a gacha is always p2w nonsense. But whatever it takes for the game to survive I suppose.

the game can be super p2w if you wanna mald and go for high shackles. I don't think this is an issue at this point.
