The Primal Hunter
Chapter 841
”You two had a lot of fun with this one, huh?” the Viper commented as he watched Jake perform Courier Job after Courier Job. Despite it not being outright confirmed yet, he had the strong impression that both Minaga and the Wyrmgod had been heavily involved with this particular Challenge Dungeon.
”Fun? Do you have any idea how much work it was?” Minaga said with a sigh. ”Out of every Challenge Dungeon, this one took by far the longest. Well, besides the Test of Character, but I wasn’t much involved with that, so it doesn’t count.”
”I take it Nevermore itself also got quite involved with the balancing?” Vilastromoz further inquired.
”The sheer complexity of having so many starting points, all the quest paths, and keeping it all dynamic and adapting to the Nevermore Attendee required far more work than initially estimated. The original plan was to have this Challenge Dungeon ready last era, but we had to delay it primarily due to Nevermore and the system not accepting the balancing,” the Wyrmgod explained; many gods who were capable of listening in very interested in getting some insights into the World Wonder.
”Not certain I would call this balanced,” the Blightfather decided to chime in. ”Seeing Azal also doing the Challenge Dungeon pretty much confirmed the lack of critical thinking from many of the characters. They are too trusting and, in certain cases, either too easily fooled, while in other instances, getting any kind of advantage is borderline impossible.”
”We are well aware,” the Wyrmgod sighed. ”However, it was necessary to do it like this. If we tried to adhere to realism too much, the time required to unlock any high-level quest path would simply take far too long, so we had to tweak the logic of the world quite a lot. With the aim of the Challenge Dungeon taking around two years on average for the high-performers, this is the solution we settled on.
”Also, you cannot argue that some individuals aren’t simply this trusting, even among the higher grades. People can get blinded by their goals and consider what they do so important and justified that they automatically assume everyone else will share their opinion, thus seeing no need to be critical. Having the ability to identify these people and distinguish them from the less fanatical is most definitely a skill worth learning,”
”Even so, it teaches many unrealistic lessons along with the healthy ones,” the Blightfather insisted. ”Additionally, it makes little sense to remove all status from everyone. As a variant Risen of the highest echelon, Azal should have been recognized, yet the denizens of the Challenge Dungeon seem incapable of doing so, even daring to treat him like a lesser. It goes against their very Records to act like that.”
”Race isn’t something that should give an advantage in this dungeon, same as Blessings, and even the status as a Bloodline Patriarch or Transcendant also won’t offer any notable advantages,” the Wyrmgod argued back.
”Such a fundamental change to social dynamics for certain races shouldn’t be taken that lightly. How would you view it if…”
Vilastromoz remained quiet, not really having much to add as the two Primordials discussed openly for all to hear. It was rare for such a lively discussion to appear, and while both of them went at each other, the Viper also knew both enjoyed it. As sad as it sounds, it was rare to find people even willing to argue back who wouldn’t just take anything you said as gospel, so to get pushback was almost novel.
The Viper considered getting involved just for the fun of it but decided against it as the topic didn’t overly interest him. The only thing he really cared about was the information that the Challenge Dungeon was new, and it being new meant one thing:
It was exploitable.
All the Challenge Dungeons had obvious exploits that got fixed with every new iteration. Minaga’s Labyrinth and how he improved his special mist was a prime example of this, with every one of the Challenge Dungeons having similar improvements and ”nerfs” to certain Paths every new era. Seeing as this was the first, it meant many things had yet to be fully ironed out, as it was simply impossible to account for every Path without some live testing. The only reason the system accepted it despite the flaws that would be revealed was that every attendant who competed had the same circumstances and the same opportunities to take advantage.
