Endless Cellar is a similar in concept to Endless Tower, but with different monsters and increased difficulty. If the party makes it to the end of this nightmare of a dungeon leading them deep underground, they will arrive at the 100th floor where they must endure a series of trials before facing the fearsome final boss. Check the Endless Cellar wiki article for more details.
If at least 8 players show up with level 95+ characters, preferably transcended and well-geared, then we will attempt Endless Cellar. (The alternate plan is Endless Tower.)
Finnian and his assistant(s) will provide a few helpful buffs to aid the brave adventurers in their race to the bottom/top. Party wipe? No problem. Finnian can revive the party. However, for every 4 revives the the prize category will drop (more on this later). If the party clears the Endless Cellar quickly and certain qualifications are met, which will be discussed before the event starts, they may contend for the JellyRO Endless Cellar World Record! The current record for EC is: 1 hour 53 minutes 48 seconds 61 milliseconds. A party that manages to break the record has a chance to win a bonus Super prize.
[For Endless Tower, the prize category will drop every 2 party revives. The current record for ET is: 1 hour 0 minutes 35 seconds 54 milliseconds.]
Prizes
Every 25th floor cleared earns the party a reward from the next highest prize category, and these prizes are cumulative. Floor 25 is a Small prize, floor 50 is a Medium prize, floor 75 is Large, and a Super prize for defeating the final boss. The party will also earn a Jellybean for each hour (rounded up), and 1 Auro per floor passed, up to 100. Even if you dropped one prize category for revives, beating the record will still earn you a Super prize. You can learn more about prize categories here.
For my Endless Cellar event, the prizes are doubled, and still cumulative! That means, you get twice as many Small prize items for passing floor 25, twice as many Medium prize items for passing floor 50, twice as many Large prize items for passing floor 75, and two different Super prizes for defeating the final boss on floor 100. Beat the record using less than 4 revives and you could end up with three Super prizes!
The event will start promptly at 8pm CDT (UTC-5). Get your gear and supplies ready ahead of time. Depending on what character classes/jobs show up, it may not be ideal to bring your main, so if you have a viable alt, make sure they can be ready in a couple minutes. Once the event starts you won't be allowed to swap your characters, and each player can only bring one character, so choose wisely!
Even if you normally wouldn't attempt Endless Cellar/Tower, but your character is at least level 69 (party exp share range is +/- 30), you are welcome to tag along to share the exp and loot as long as there are at least 8 characters over level 95 in the party. I strongly encourage bringing characters that will realistically be able to assist in fighting, and stay alive most of the time. If your character had an active role in a party that beat Endless Tower, they may be ready to try Cellar. This is not required, but Cellar is extremely difficult and inexperienced players may have a bad time.
[For Endless Tower, I only require at least 4 characters over level 90.]
It can be helpful to coordinate with other players. About 5-7 days before the event, look for a post in the lfg forum-style channel on JellyRO Discord, and tell us your preferences of which classes you could bring.
I hope to see many of you at the event. Don't miss this chance to win a free Staff Anniversary Box!
