Kaleid Labyrinth as a new game mode.

Discussion

About a month ago we recieved news from the development team regarding upcoming changes and new content. Among the information given it was pointed out that we woud get new content to bridge High Dragon Trials and IO'. In that very same paragraph, it was mentioned we would get new ways of team building; among them new weapon options.

Not too long ago an event banner was datamined; which, roughly translated, was named «Rainbown palace of dreams». More accurate translations pointed out it could translated simply as Kaleid Labyrinth. This banner design also seems more similar to those of the recurrent events rather than that of a limited one.

As we know, since the game release, around Halloween, a maze event centered around weapons was datamined (also called Kaleid Labyrinth); however, said event type has yet to be used, as we have been juggling between Raid and Facility events.

Do you guys think the fabled maze event was repurpossed as a recurrent event (or perhaps that was its initial purpose); or could it be the next limited event.

Note: Flair updated.

I think it’s a new event mode. They will probably talk more about it after chapter 7 release.

Tho I’d love for it to be a permanent daily events type thing instead of just a limited mode. Esp with randomly generated dungeons. It will make the game less respective for grinds.

Also more fun for co op grinds

Why not a recurring event that comes out once a month or so (with other recurring events the other weeks of the month). It would keep it interesting long term

That's what I'm banking it's going to be. They have similar events that roll around in GBF that give access to high end weapons for completing it, and I figure Kaleido Maze will be our version of it.

It’s going to have some weapon creation options for unique weapons I believe, so my thoughts are it will be limited, however it could certainly go either way.

Personally I don't put much stock in datamined info. It ends up getting changed too often.

Now if I was to guess about why we haven't seen the Maze event it would probably be because it's not ready.

Maybe they were testing this event and ran into a critical error and it's been very difficult to fix.

Alternatively, maybe they decided to repurpose the maze into non-event content. A "Oh, this is actually really fun, maybe we should figure out a way so this is available all the time" sorta deal.

I assume they used part of the word “Kaleidoscope” since the event would contain all 5 elements, encouraging multielemental teams. Other gacha-style games I’ve played have done this, so I think they’ll probably use a “rainbow” elemental typing for it.

I would love if it required all elements!

They need a new modw. Cause this routine is about as boring as can be. Why even grind events, to lvl up lesser characters for the same exact event?

Is your bar so high you can't even jump over it yourself even with a pole?

Maybe I'm just speaking as a guy who suffered through FEH's incredible mediocrity, but I love every bit of this game's event designs aside from the intense grind(which they made easier so I won't complain much about it), and I'm not getting tired of it anytime soon. If anything, I might have rather complained that there's too many things to do.
