This section is a work in progress. It should be improved in the near future, but you are still free to edit it.

This is a personal sandbox for the page Magikrab's Gauntlet and used for collecting and pre-formatting data, so that the edits on the actual page can be kept to a minimum.


This page contains unmarked SPOILERS. Beware!    


Mechanics

Magikrab's Gauntlet is divided into trains, with each train consisting of 50 carriages. Each train has its own difficulty level, which starts at the selected difficulty (Normal = 0, Impossible = 6) and increases by 1 for every cleared train.

Train Difficulty=Train Number+Difficulty−1

For example, the third train on Brutal difficulty (level 4) has a train difficulty level of 3+4−1=6.

Starting with the fourth train, every other train will be a so-called chaos train.

Carriages

Every carriage can be one of the following types: chest, café, battle, miniboss, or boss.

Chest carriage

This carriage contains a ranger cache with guaranteed Rewind items, along with resources and stickers. The game attempts to generate three caches per train; The final number may be lower or higher, depending on RNG during train generation.

Café carriage

Café carriages act as a sort of save and recovery point. Upon entering a café carriage, all health is recovered, and your progress is recorded. Being defeated will send you back to the last café carriage you visited.

In a café carriage, you can talk to the Magikrab behind the counter to buy items ("I need to stock up."), claim rewards ("I want to claim rewards."), or access tape storage ("I want to access my tape storage."). The dialogue has two more options: one which explains how you can leave Magikrab's Gauntlet, and one that closes the menu.

When stocking up in the Gauntlet, all items cost Fused Material, but will be paid for with unclaimed reward points (if any).

The interval between café carriages is calculated using the formula below. Additionally, carriage #49 of each train is always a café carriage.

Café Interval=min(5+2*Train Difficulty,25)

After exiting Magikrab's Gauntlet, your progress can be resumed from any visited café carriage unless you re-seed the train or change the difficulty.

Battle carriage

Immediately upon entering the carriage, you enter a fight. This can generally be any fight you would also encounter in New Wirral—including Ranger Captains and Archangels. On top of that, you may encounter Partners and other named NPCs that you would normally not be able to fight.

Each fight is annotated with a challenge level. The challenge level depends on the encounter (see table below). In non-chaos trains, all generated encounters are shuffled and then re-ordered by challenge level. This means that the encounter difficulty generally increases with the carriage number, and resets once a new train is entered. In chaos trains, re-ordering step is skipped, leading to a completely random progression in challenge level.

List of possible encounters
Challenge Encounter Is Partial?
0 Two monsters No
Unique monster with one monster No
Generic NPC Yes
1 Ranger Captain with ranger No
Rogue Fusion, consisting of two monsters, with one monster No
Unstable Fusion, consisting of an Anathema and one other monster, with one monster No
Partner Yes
Ranger Captain Yes
Portrait NPC Yes
2 Archangel No
3 Archangel Yes
Partial Encounters

Partial encounters are accompanied by a second partial encounter with the same difficulty[1]. Especially in the later carriages, there is a lower chance of meeting partial encounters[2].

Minibosses

Every 8th non-café carriage is a miniboss fight. These fights have a challenge level that is generally 1 higher than preceding fights, though there are exceptions[3].

Bosses

Carriage #50 of every train is a boss carriage, where you fight against one of three bosses.

Levels

The enemy level starts at Lv50, independent of difficulty. For every visited carriage before the current one, the enemy level increases by 1. Since the first carriage is always a café carriage, the earliest possible encounter will start at Lv51 in carriage #2. Every miniboss or boss carriage has its level raised by 10, though this increase only applies to that carriage.

Enemy Level={49+Carriage Number+10if Miniboss Carriage or Boss Carriage49+Carriage Numberotherwise

Rewards

Winning a battle carriage increases your win streak by 1. This streak is important for calculating the rewards you can obtain by talking to the Magikrab in one of the café carriages. For each battle carriage you clear, you obtain reward points based on the following formula.

Reward Points=(Streak+⌊Carriage Number10⌋)*(Train Difficulty+1)

For example, winning a fight in carriage #148 on difficulty Hard with a win streak of 40 gives…

(40+⌊14810⌋)*(4+1)=(40+⌊14.8⌋)*5=(40+14)*5=270

…reward points.

When defeated in a battle carriage or claiming rewards, the win streak is reset to 0.

For each reward point obtained, you receive one Fused Material and one Metal when claiming rewards.

References

  1. ↑ In the case of a chaos train: any difficulty.
  2. ↑ This is due to details of the train generation. Partial encounters take their partners from the list of generated partial encounters after them, and if there is no partial encounter that matches the rules, the incomplete partial encounter is discarded and replaced by a generic monster or rogue fusion fight.
  3. ↑ This largely depends on the details of the train generation. In non-chaos trains, it's safe to assume the challenge level will be between 0 and 2 levels higher than preceding ones. The challenge level in chaos trains is entirely dependent on RNG.
  4. ↑ 4.0 4.1 As of version 1.7, Diogenes' tapes 3, 4, and 5 are locked behind no difficulty, difficulty 2, and difficulty 4, respectively. This is different from all other generic NPCs (which use difficulties 1/3/5 as conditions) and may hence be left over from difficulty adjustments during development.
  5. ↑ As of version 1.7, Mardiusa actually appears twice in the cultists' spawn profile, making it twice as likely to appear compared to all other tapes. Whether this is deliberate or by accident is hard to decide without official feedback.
