  • I haven't tested it personally, but someone in discord says that they were added to the list since g-lover (for similar reasons). --Volc (talk) 18:15, 23 August 2019 (UTC)

Level 12

Regarding the previous edit: "Although The Exploaded Battlefield is immediately visible, you still need to have 70 mysticality & moxie to equip either War Outfit to adventure here."

Unless that has changed recently, the game does not prevent you from adventuring without the necessary substats. On my first run, I foolishly entered the battlefield at level 1 to see what would happen, and got into a fight easily enough. It just isn't ideal to do so.--Volc (talk) 16:49, 7 September 2019 (UTC)

Fascinating. I must try this tomorrow. What did the game try to have you fight, a frat orc or a war hippy? The Palindrome still locks us out without the Talisman, or is that incorrect? --Arkcon (talk) 21:41, 7 September 2019 (UTC)

If I recall, I fought a sorority nurse (and lost within a turn or two, because I also forgot to equip anything). Until you enter with an outfit, it appears to give monsters from both sides at random, presumably as a way to get a war outfit in the first place. Given that the usual unlock is through level, it makes sense that it would be available immediately.

The Palindome still locks you out, yes.--Volc (talk) 00:32, 9 September 2019 (UTC)

Yeah, I tried it too. Also, its explained better on The Exploaded Battlefield, without a War outfit, you fight both sides, and don't get food/booze banishing non-coms. It just that "its best ..." is a weasel term that doesn't say why its best. But people can check the next page. Arkcon (talk) 22:20, 9 September 2019 (UTC)
