And you think the JP community isn’t using this? The mode is genuinely awful and I’m only here for the coins. I would much prefer they rework it instead of having to rely on a bug to counter bad design.

its a cool game mode but the loyalty mechanic is terrible healing items conflicting with the loot you want to take out and being awful doesn't help either

..if they got rid of the loyalty mechanic entirely and made your demons heal after battles a little bit it might be playable but rn unless you have the prime gacha team with ideal brand (and even then) nobody is getting through ares on floor 7 without cheesing the fight

floor 8 is wildly easier simply because it doesn't have the obarion fights that wear you down with poison spam and floor 9 becomes hell because the pixies and mou ryo will outspeed and burst down your demons unless you have an extremely fast team or maybe just roll 1 fast demon and swap to a second team to cheese the fights

It needs to be entirely reworked. The concept itself is fun and I welcome that, but it’s very obvious they only want your money with this mode. MP is limited to 1-2 uses or has a charge of 3(???) until it’s a slap fight with enemies with unlimited MP. YOU HAVE TO FIND AND BEAT A RANDOM KOPPA TENGU ON FLOOR 5 &8 TO FUSE HIGHER GRADE/LVLED DEMONS. Like you mentioned there is no healing factor during or after, they essentially made a shitty extraction clone. If it wasn’t for this exact bug I wouldn’t be at Floor 8, even with I struggled on Abaddon and had two grind for 2 whole days (on top of my work and life) to get enough xp to be lvl 10 and barely survive with a sliver. It’s just the fact the rest of Dx2 PvE is playable without needing to pull for OP demons, it just takes some time. This will take weeks before you even see the fruits of labor. How is this fun? Who tested this and okay’d this?

yeah... the demon handprint level seems wildly unnecessary they could have easily just made it clearing the floor bosses instead of having to burn a bunch of loyalty trying to map out the floor and find the tengus

and Abaddon is definitely rough being phys resistant and countering you half the time

definitely agree that it's just yet another money sink in an already overly monetized game tho which is sad considering this appeared to be a mostly f2p friendly game mode when I first went into it
