What Levels Will You Be At When The DLC drops?
I’ve been seeing a lot of discussion about whether people are starting fresh for the new DLC, and more power to those doing that. But for those like me who’ve only played with one Arisen and Pawn, what level are you entering (or planning to enter) the DLC at?
I’m currently level 132 and debating whether to push to 150 before jumping in.
At the same time, I’m worried about being overpowered. I know Capcom let us go up to level 999 (even though stats soft cap around 200), so I’m curious how they’ll handle difficulty scaling.
I’m hoping the hardest content isn’t concentrated around levels 90–120. I am basing this on the fact that most people finish their first playthrough around level 55–75.
I also know Capcom said they’re designing the game around replayability, but I interpreted that more as continuing to hunt for new gear rather than constantly restarting.
I guess what I am hoping for is for the game to still be remotely challenging even at 200 (where the stats cap). I know the DLC is called "Dark Arisen," so logic would imply it may be the same as the previous game, but it's too soon to tell, I guess.
Anyways, let me know your guys' plan.
