	~ In-Game Description

What is Endless War?

Endless War is an end game content where you challenge yourself against 12 hard nodes. Each time you complete a lap (of 12 nodes), the lap is reset and you can challenge it again with enhanced difficulty. Later laps are akin to harder high floor tower content and will require brainpower, deck efficiency and proper strategy. You won't be able to cheese the content in much later laps by brainlessly spamming supreme cards.

The number of nodes you complete is displayed on your profile.

What is the difference between Endless War 1?

The differences are:

• The mob lineup has changed
• The class/job type bonus per node has changed. This still gives +200 to deck level.

Specifications

• Difficulty

Normal / Hard doesn't work on Endless mode. Rental and Phoenix Down doesn't work either. Each node is identical per lap, just harder as the lap increases.

Lap difficulty ramps up pretty fast.

• Reward

The first lap gives a lot of rewards, then the reward is the same for each subsequent lap.

• Job usage

You need at least 12 jobs to be able to complete a lap.

Jobs used once in a node cannot be used again, regardless of the main / sub usage. It resets if you finish/reset the lap.

It will be most beneficial to keep more powerful jobs for the later nodes.

You can check which job you used already with the sword-like icon on the map.

• There's a bonus of for each type on each node

If you equip a job from the specific type, you'll get a boost to deck level. However, you do not need to use the specified job type for each node.

The boost is a flat +200 deck level.

• Reset

If you come to a point on a lap where you cannot advance, you can reset the lap via the sword-like icon. You'll restart again from the first node, and can re-use jobs, but you won't get rewards from the nodes you already completed.

• Ultimate Hero (Skin) and Onion jobs

Ultimate Hero's are counted as a job, If you use them in a node, you can't use both the skin and the job again for the lap. Onion jobs, no matter the subjob selected, will count as a job, and as the base job as well. i.e Berserker on Onion Knight will count as both Onion Knight and Berserker. (Normal job)
