About 'XP Farming'


[Arena Mode] All-Missions Guide (Mission / Enemies / Gameplay Tips) image 7

-------------------------------------------------

How does the Game calculates your 'XP'?

-------------------------------------------------

If you kill every enemy or, kill no enemy at all, the game will give you a fixed amount of xp every time you finish a wave.

You can see me doing 0 kills, and still getting the full xp after the wave.

XP is not calculated by kills.

It is not calculated by damage,

and it is not calculated by other outside factors such as your hireling`s attacks.

The game decides how much xp for each skill will be given to you,

based on how much things did you do in that round.

Let`s see what actions leads to a certain XP type.

[[Each XP transfer list]]

{{Unarmed XP}} :

1. Hitting enemies with 'Punches', 'Unarmed charge-up attacks', 'Pushes', 'Kicks', 'Unarmed Takedowns', 'Unarmed Counter'

2. Giving 'Colliding damage' to enemies(when both your enemy`s and your body is scrambled).

{{Melee XP}} :

1. Hitting enemies with 'Melee weapons', 'Melee charge-up attacks', 'Pistol Whip attacks(bayonet)', 'Melee takedowns', 'Melee Counter(Riposte)'

{{Ranged XP}} :

1. Hitting enemies with 'Ranged weapons'

2. 'Deflecting enemy bullets' with a melee block & hitting enemies with them.

{{Acrobatic XP}} :

1. Hitting enemies by 'throwing Throwing weapons', 'throwing Melee/Ranged weapons/shields'

2. Damaging enemies with thrown 'Explosive weapons'

3. 'Walking / Running a certain distance', 'Dodging'

So, by following this list, each corresponding 'action' will work as a 'single vote' for that XP.

Think as each skill... as a 'candidate' for election.

For example,

'Hitting enemy once with a crowbar' = 1 vote for Melee XP

'Hitting enemy with a thrown weapon' = 1 vote for Acrobatic XP

After the wave, the game will see how many votes does each skill has.

The more a certain type of skill has votes, they will be given that much XP.

If a skill didn`t get any vote, the game will not give XP to that skill.

And if all skills didn`t get any vote, the game randomly decides who to give XP, and how much they will be given.

Be aware that 'Each hit' with 'a bullet' count as a vote for Ranged XP.

This means that, if you shot a single shotgun shell and all 10 pellets hit the enemy, it counts as 10 votes. That`s why it seems that ranged XP is the easiest to get.

Knowing all this, you can intentionally farm a certain XP for a mission.

For example,

1. Letting your hirelings do much of the killing, and you just chilling and throwing some weapons to get only Acrobatic XP.

2. Mixing melee & unarmed attacks to even up between melee & unarmed XP.

[0] "The HQ Mission"


[Arena Mode] All-Missions Guide (Mission / Enemies / Gameplay Tips) image 50

[Ohhhhh Never expected this, right???

I said, all the missions. So that includes the HQ mission too.

Jokes aside, you`ll never die in this level, so no worries at all.

It is very unlikely for you to fail in this mission.]

------------------------------

Winning tips

------------------------------

1. Play the game, fool.

------------------------------

"Did you know???"

1. You can actually drop the 'flashlight' by pressing 'R'.

2. You can takedown the 3rd grunt if you approach him in the back(not really surprising, I know).

3. There are actually 3 Free Jazz buildings near the HQ. The building`s geometry doesn`t make any sense too.

[The first helicopter mission. It is quite challenging even though it is an early stage.

It`s better to be aggressive than defensive while playing this mission as enemies will swarm out uncontrollably.]

------------------------------

Winning tips

------------------------------

1. Give up one or two gas lubricator. It is better to farm cash in the later missions. Also gives you some time to focus on more deadlier targets.

2. Focus kill the 'west side' gathered enemies. They will come at once whenever their number are up to 5, or they are almost the last enemies remaining on the field.

3. Don`t kill the enemies that are not attacking the objective, or ones that are not gathered around the west barricade. Enemies that have already destroyed a lubricator tends to stay there being dumb, and the east side enemies are just born stupid.

4. Try not using the 'Wooden Board'. It swings much slower and has terrible durability. Quickly switch it with other weapons such as pipes.

5. Quickly grab pistols the survivors(nail-heads) drop. It takes 2~3 shots to kill a survivor.

6. You can either throw your weapon, or shoot the head(you can do this even without headshot skill. just wait for it to fall down and aim directly at its head) at a low health zed to instantly kill it without it getting revived again.

2. Your 'Catch Thrown Weapon' skill should work here, but for some reason you cannot catch anything even though you have this skill.

[The mission where you can farm lots of melee and unarmed xp!

The enemies here are pretty simple. Just be careful not to over extend and lose your corpus.]

------------------------------

Winning tips

------------------------------

[An extremely loose mission. A lot of people picked this to be their least favorite mission.

4. Hire some thug hirelings to cover the large areas.

[One of the longest mission in Arena Mode. It can be a bullet hell if you don`t kill the right targets first.

Tac-bar will not protect you in this mission, so your survival depends on your dodge and running.

Focus is key.]

------------------------------

Winning tips

------------------------------

1. Get 'Snap-dodge' to dodge incoming projectiles. Run in circles when you are being followed by a homing projectile(actually the best way is to move 'diagonally' towards it).

2. Kill 'Commando/Hunter' Gungeons first. Throwing axes and swords can insta-kill green Gungeons if thrown.

3. Most of the enemies here are vulnerable when you get too close to them. Close the distance when you want to kill them, and run away if you need to heal.

4. Place hirelings on the second floor. They will become safe from 'KABOOM'ing presents.

5. If you have full health, use elves for your advantage. Get caught by an elf while enemies swarm you, and the exlposion will rip those enemies.

6. Use presents to your advantage. You are invincible while taking down a dazed enemy.

7. Most enemies that spawn here cannot attack you if you get close to them. Use the distance to your advantage.

------------------------------

{{Bully Gungeon}} : [Wave 6~15] A G03LM sized enemy which spawns with a special gun that shoots 3 bullets at once. Bullets are spread at a 30 degree angle from each other, and also ignores tac-bar. Cannot shoot you if you are too close. It will always try following to the player.

------------------------------

Did you know?

------------------------------

1. If you have extremely high force, you can actually smack an enemy through the floor and into middle hole(where there is a rotating blade in infinite waves). Sadly, there is no way for you to reach that enemy anymore, so your only option is to abort.

2. The rotating blade can sometimes pop above the ground and kill anything that gets too close to it. This is because the lower part of the blade will be pushed whenever an object collides with it(it is a bug, yes.)

3. This is the one mission that tac-bar is totally useless!(if not counting the daze chances of presents and elves)

4. The mission itself is a reference to a very old game.

[A pretty challenging mission when you have low mobility and no snap-dodge. The vampires are extremely deadly, as they will do takedowns after takedowns if they surround you. Fire or dissonant element attacks are extremely useful here.]

------------------------------

Winning tips

------------------------------

1. Get snap-dodge and try to get away tight corners.

2. Run away to heal up, give extreme damage to vampires by doing charge-up melee attacks.

3. Use stakes to instantly kill vampire punks. Torch kills will prevent vampire punks&brutes from being revived.

4. Buy a dissonant weapon or a fire weapon from the black market. (Fire/Negative slayer knife, Firebug, Dissonant cannon are good weapons for this mission.)

------------------------------

Enemy Types

------------------------------

{{sweet-tony}} : tony came back with a mask. he is also fast now.

/ status corpus 1 tac bar false Size micro special midget

{{Vampire Hunter}} : Just some masked Elvis cousins. Half of them have stakes.

/ Status Corpus 1 Tac bar false Size normal Special Oh I`m dying here!!!

{{Vampire Punk}} : It does high punch damage, as its` body is same as experiment. It also lunges itself towards the player if its far away. Being caught by his lunge will be connected to an high damage takedown. It also revives like a zed when killed.

/ Status Corpus 1 Tac bar true Size normal Special Does high unarmed damage, jump grab attacks when angered. It`s corpus recharges when killed normally(up to 1~2 times).

{{Vampire Brute}} : It can charge-up punch, just like the half-mag. This one also has lots of health. It also uses a special grab&bite attack when angered. If it kills a vampire hunter with a bite attack, the vampire hunter will be reborn as another Vampire Brute.

/ Status Corpus 1 Tac bar false Size normal Special none.

------------------------------

"Did you know???"

------------------------------

1. Vampire brutes can revive other types of enemies if they kill with a takedown.

2. Vampire punks` lunges can be countered. Also the lunge grabs don`t work against a 10 corpus Massive.

3. You can kill the vampire wave that appears on the entrance to the bar(you can throw 1~2 grenades just before the dialogue starts). Killing them doesnt give you more xp or cash.

4. You can die from the final cutscene if you are hit by 2Bdamned's car. You die instantly, no matter how much corpus you have.

5. You can cross the downwards slope inside the club with a 'single' charge-up attack with massive.

6. There are already brutes hiding in the club before they appear in front of you(try finding them XD).

7. When the game came out, the vampire brutes had been colored as yellow.

[The enemies here aren`t that scary. The trapdoors are though. Watch out grabs and slow effects that enemies do to you. Also, if you need a specific skill xp, this is a great mission to farm that xp.]

------------------------------

Winning tips

------------------------------

1. Use hirelings to get more firepower.

2. Get 'Nano respirators(Alphaware)' from Fencer who is right in front of the base. The item only costs 2 tokens.

3. Try to dodge away as much as possible from grabs and bomb attacks.

4. Don`t get close to enemies when you are dazed. Avoid traps at all costs.

------------------------------

Farming tips

------------------------------

1. Give your hirelings cheap shotguns(Nevadean Blaster .410 guage/Nevadean Bulldozer 12 guage), and make them all wear 'Camo Pants + Bandolier' for extra ammo. (If you finished hard sell before this mission, you can buy them 'Front Bombsuit Plating' as well)

1-1. (optional) you can buy 'Reaper-410($4,400)' from quatermaster, or even 'Nevadean Model E($12,138)' Shotgun from the black market to maximize your hireling`s firepower.

2. Place them beside barricades that you see below. The 5th hireling can just stand near them.

[Commands for hirelings]

Ctrl + Right mouse : Select individual hireling.

Ctrl + Middle mouse : Place selected hireling in a fixed place(he will not go far away from there, and always return) If you do this command next to a obstacle, they will take cover until you give them new orders.

3. Let your hirelings kill enemies for you, while you only attack with the corresponding weapon for your farming xp.

------------------------------

"Did you know???"

------------------------------

1. Killing Honk Zeds by cleanly cutting their torso in half, they will 100% drop a usable dynamite item(works well with large melee weapon + charge-up attack).

2. The traps only triggers towards the 'player'. Your hirelings are totally safe from traps as long you are far from them.

3. By being massive you can basically free-farm XP by using your hirelings. You can go up the place shown here by using Lv.2 Charge-up. Place your hirelings right below you, and they will do the killing.

4. I choose this map for farming acrobatic XP. Enemies are weak, and don`t have lots of armor. No bullet hell, and straight rectangular paths to throw melee weapons. Also, a lot of enemies drop melee weapons here.

3. It is possible for you to go inside the Mandatus if you are placed right in front before it closes its shields.(but soon you will be popped out because of a white obstacle that is filled in the gap)

4. The 'Clockworker`s' melee and unarmed attacks can be countered if you are playing as Massive.

5. Each time the Mandatus loses a corpus, it loses a tooth.

6. During the 'facing mandatus' scene on the stairs, you can kick the Gambler down the hole to find... 'TWO' Gamblers below.

------------------------------

Winning tips

------------------------------

1. Decide.

------------------------------

Enemy Types

------------------------------

{{The player}} :

------------------------------

"Did you know???"

------------------------------

The Maker = Game Developers

Mandatus = 'Your' computer(game system)

Gambler = Story teller

Nowhere = The end of the game(no more story left to tell)

The first-born = 'Your' character.(The first one to be loaded in the game)

The ones who decide = 'You', the player.

The Doom of Nevada = 'You' not playing the game.

Your 'character' has to be restart over and over again by entering the nowhere.

Doing so, you will play the game on and on. Because of this, the game(Nevada) can still be alive on in your computer.

Welp... This took a lot of time and effort.

I`ve spent nights and mornings,

I haven`t slept some days,

I had hours and hours of testing the same things over and over again.

I had to ask here and there, bothering every single person I talk to...

For what?

To help more people who wants to enjoy the game.

Even though the journey was extremely hard for me, I still think it was totally worth it.

This is repayment for all those folks out there that supported me.

And a present for all those who plays this game.

Special thanks for TV.

It was a hell of a journey.

((...Now I think I could finally rest for a long time))
