This thread really moves slow, doesn't it

Shinjuku Dungeon's right in central Tokyo and it's still ghost-town-tier (T_T)

246 Anonymous Explorer

I mean — Goblins from floor 1, easy to get lost, ruin-type with extra traps the deeper you go

Can't really blame people

247 Anonymous Explorer

On the upside it means you can do floor 1 in peace

Provided you can drop a Goblin, that is

248 Anonymous Explorer

Honestly can't see this place getting better

Veteran Explorers who can drop Goblins easily don't bother with Shinjuku in the first place — they go to better-yield Dungeons

249 Anonymous Explorer

Sorry to barge in — question for the senior Explorers in here. With the Status stats, is it better to go all-in on one of them?

250 Anonymous Explorer

Oh, fresh new Explorer in the wild

Surround them!

251 Anonymous Explorer

Don't let them escape!!

252 Anonymous Explorer

Off-topic for this thread tbh, but I'll allow it

Big bro will teach you

By the way — boy or girl?

253 Anonymous Explorer

Boy.

254 Anonymous Explorer

Get out

255 Anonymous Explorer

Lmaaao that's harsh

Just teach him lol

256 Anonymous Explorer

Fine fine. I'll teach you.

257 Anonymous Explorer

how kind lol

258 Anonymous Explorer

Real talk: don't go all-in on a single stat

Go all-in on STR and your muscles and tendons literally rip from forces your body can't take, plus you lose feel for your own strength and movement falls apart

Go all-in on AGI and you'll run face-first into walls

Forget combat — you'll struggle to even move. GG.

259 Anonymous Explorer

I see!

Got it. I'll skip the all-in build!

Quick follow-up on what you said though — what if it's INT or VIT? No problem to all-in those?

260 Anonymous Explorer

I mean, INT, MND, VIT, DEX, those four — going all-in won't immediately backfire on you

But all-in on any of the other three (VIT, MND, DEX), the moment you go deeper you'll lack attack power and just stop being able to drop monsters. All-in on INT, same end result

You won't be able to react to monster movement, and you get one-shot

261 Anonymous Explorer

Ah, makes sense

That tracks

Thanks for the rundown!

262 Anonymous Explorer

Don't mention it

You diving Shinjuku from here on out?

Big bro will teach you nicely if you have any other questions, just ask

263 Anonymous Explorer

Sorry, I dove today and there was a real freak in there, so I'm not going back to Shinjuku Dungeon. My apologies.

264 Anonymous Explorer

Whaaaat'd you saaay!?

Freak how?? What kind of freak!?

265 Anonymous Explorer

Aaah, there goes our promising new recruit

Whoever spooked them off, get a grip

266 Anonymous Explorer

263, you're joking, right!? You're still gonna dive Shinjuku, right!?

267 Anonymous Explorer

263, hey, c'mon, answer!!

268 Anonymous Explorer

263, no way…

269 Anonymous Explorer

Welp, ran clean off lol

270 Anonymous Explorer

Repaid kindness with cruelty out here!!

273 Anonymous Explorer

huh?

That's unusual, a notice straight from the Association

274 Anonymous Explorer

Just checked — they posted the same warning on the Shinjuku Branch's official ZX account too

275 Anonymous Explorer

Not a new monster, not a new trap — a suspicious person

What did they DO

276 Anonymous Explorer

Other Explorers' helmet cams catch your face the second you pull anything, but somehow these reprobates never decrease in number do they

277 Anonymous Explorer

Yeah — wreck the camera from a blind spot first, then commit the deed: classic playbook for that breed of trash

Or, the recent rumour about "that thing" being used…

You can theoretically pull off the perfect crime, so the empty-skulled types try

Same flavour this time too maybe?

278 Anonymous Explorer

lol

Hold on, hold ON lol

Y'all, watch the video lol

279 Anonymous Explorer

What are you laughing about

280 Anonymous Explorer

If it's stomach-turning content I'd rather not watch tbh…

281 Anonymous Explorer

lolololololol

282 Anonymous Explorer

No, it's just a flat-out weirdo, lmao

283 Anonymous Explorer

The way he kills the goblin and goes "NGEE-BLEH-DEE-S-S-S-SHHHHHHH!!!!!" is insane lol

284 Anonymous Explorer

He is at least 10× more suspicious than I imagined lol

This the freak 263 was talking about, right?

285 Anonymous Explorer

It's a DungeonTube vid

It's blowing up — anyone here actually know this channel?

286 Anonymous Explorer

Aaah right — looks like he was a streamer on Yo!Tube originally, became an Explorer, started streaming dives

Maybe that's why his other videos already have decent view counts for a new Explorer

Then this absolute lunatic shows up on his stream, the clip goes viral — that's the chain, apparently

287 Anonymous Explorer

Hold on a sec

I just looked it up — and it's not just this channel that blew up

Other Explorers' channels are blowing up too

And — surprise — they all feature the same suspicious person in Shinjuku Dungeon lol

Thanks!

Watched 'em — yep, definitely all the same dude lol

289 Anonymous Explorer

MVP move

He's killing goblins with an unhinged grin and feeling amazing about it lol

His gear screams beginner though — who is this guy?

Bona-fide pleasure-killer? Venting his murderous urges on goblins?

290 Anonymous Explorer

289

No idea.

Checked, but couldn't find his channel on DungeonTube either.

Probably one of the private-only Explorers

291 Anonymous Explorer

The smile while he dices up goblins is genuinely terrifying lol

This dude has zero hesitation lol

He's gonna get reported

292 Anonymous Explorer

Look, I cracked up too, but —

If this guy's actually unhinged this could get ugly?

He's working floor 1 — new Explorers might end up as collateral?

293 Anonymous Explorer

Nah, probably fine

His warped killing-impulse seems to be aimed at goblins specifically

Watch this one:

294 Anonymous Explorer

lolololololol

The cheery little greeting is hilarious lol

295 Anonymous Explorer

If you only watched the bit where he goes "Helloooo"

he sounds like a perfectly nice young man lol

Then he meets a goblin and immediately splits its skull while screaming "G-G-G-OOOOOOOOOD-S-S-SHHH!!!" lol

296 Anonymous Explorer

Just full-on weirdo at this point lol

297 Anonymous Explorer

The fact that he's actually polite to other Explorers somehow makes it worse lol

298 Anonymous Explorer

Either way, I just hope this guy isn't actually a serial killer
