EVO System supposed to be a Party Zone?

Unfortunately, the quest expires. I have entered 2 times trying to unlock Link 6 (Crashing gets me every time) and both times I had to accept the quest again. The quest items do not disappear though.

So that means you used up two mission cores? D:

Yea but I don't know if it was the 2drop event we had, but those Cores are not very rare. I already unlocked Link 6 and I have a lot of spares for Link 9, 8 and 2 for Link 7.

They're sufficiently uncommon enough... there was a brief period of 2X earlier today (while you were dozing probably) and of the numerous cores I obtained, none were mission cores to get to the other link regions.

I just did Hawkeye with a friend and they are V1. He dropped 3 coins.
Btw, in case anyone is wondering, the Cygnus Cores drops from mobs inside the evo world. My friend just got one and we will do Cygnus later.

Looks like the unscheduled maintenance for Dimension Invade and Evo System removed all the herb/ore drops. The equip drops still, but much less frequent.

What about coins?

Coin rate seems unchanged, as is the droprate for the event Secret Boxes (roughly 45 boxes per 30min run).

Wonderful! I was waiting for this the whole time. Much easier to see the drops i actually care about

You want it to be a PPZ?
Slap a Monster - 400% HP core in that shet!

It only roughly doubles the EXP, iirc.

I can confirm it doubles with 50% Monster HP.

You can make your own party play zone in there as an alternative, but LHC/HoH is still a bit better for faster EXP.
If you unlock all the cores including the slot in the center, it's still pretty nice for a private solo/party training/hunting.

400% HP mobs + Party EXP + 30% spawn rate + 50% additional spawn rate (being the unique core) + 3x filler/drop/etc cores

I actually tried soloing in there with that setup minus the party exp core on my Lv184 shadower in the link 3 map. I got about 20K exp a kill, but there's a lot of spawn flying all into one spot. I got about ~12-15% Exp in 30 minutes while in there during the 2x event, so it's not that bad for solo exp imo.

It's not 50%, it's +400% (making it 5x). Tried the 10x Monsters HP, the exp roughly tripled.

Off topic and i dunno if this was posted yet, but manon drops cry in evo world. Manon cores are 2.5m ea. Finally making bossing easier all around.

Theres no point what so ever to make this into a party play area. Use extra hp, more spawn and extra levels cores and you'll see this is BETTER than LHC for sure, even with the party play exp still being there. You can also leave a hs mule in link 1 if you have one and go grind in link 3 when you got hs from your mule. The 5%-15% party play exp cores will never make up for the exp your party member leeches, afaik you can get up to max 30% party play, and thats not worth using fillers for.

Edit: Just to give an example:

For this I was using my lvl 122 demon slayer with close to no funding at all. I was also using my level 148 phantom for hs, rage, mw & se in link 1 map while I was killing in link 3. I would always go back to link 1 for rebuffing when needed and the mobs turned out to be lvl 135 because thats the avg lvl of my party. I could also have used a +10 level core, but I think that would make me miss a lot more, thus not making it good exp at all. The miss rate was 26% if anyone cba to calc.

- 1x exp
- 20x hp core (core says 1900% hp increase)
- 100% spawn increase
- link 3 map
- Holy symbol

Exp per mob: about 24k+2,4k from merc link and obviously 10% of that comes from demon cry (level 10), since the mobs are kinda vacced to the middle of the map and demon cry hit a big part of the screen, this is by FAR better exp than any party at LHC can give you at lvl 122. Not so sure if you are really funded, but I would say the mobs had about 2-4m HP. The fact that you are allowed to spam your mobbing skills instead of single target at 1-2 crockies, gives most classes a huge advantage.

Without those rare cores using these instead:

- 7+ level cores (mind you Im still bringing my phantom inside, bringing the levels up to 142)
- 30% spawn increase
- 5x Hp core (400%)
- Holy symbol

11415 + 1142 exp (with demons cry lvl 10 still)

So the difference obviously is the exp rate, the spawn rate doesnt make a big difference at all. The only time this would effect your grinding speed, is when the machine is not vaccing the mobs for you or if you kill the mobs too quickly and you need more of them, but to me it was the same. Also hp for these mobs was around 400-500k.

These cores cost a total of 200k mesos for every entry. You can also obtain even more than I just tested by unlocking your unique core slot, but I have no clue how to get those cores.

Tl;DR: Exp at evolution world is better if you dont party, the highest party exp you can get is not worth the exp your partner will leech of you, this would only be better if you were being leeched, but in that case LHC should be better for that. This place can be good and bad depending on your funding, but it seems to be the perfect place from lvl 110 to mid 140's at least, maybe leave it a little earlier for dimension invasion but I havent got the chance to test that yet so idk how good exp it is.

Of course EVO world is better if you don't party. This is true for any normal map. That doesn't mean it wouldn't be better if it was a party zone. I'd rather make my maximum mule party with a lvl 200 attacker and party zone leech my own guys in a nice private dungeon. This used to be feasible with Azwan, but then they nerfed the Exp to hell and it no longer works as a grind zone. Personally, I was hoping this would be the new replacement for old Aswan. I am not completely unhappy with this, though, because there are plenty of nice solo grinding tricks that make this place decent. It's not ever going to be Stronghold or LHC, but it definitely is good solo experience.
