Operation: Egg Heist Team Mode – Does Leveling Up Hurt? Minimum Enemy Level 50/55 · Deployed Aniimo Attribute Limits · Monster Buffs by Difficulty

Operation: Egg Heist Team Mode (Sanctum) · island PvP enemies fixed at Lv.60 · Team Mode only sets a minimum enemy level of 50/55 · attributes slightly/significantly tuned · Egg Heist ATK·DEF +0~+3 · 1/2/4/5 elite monsters · "Recommended Loadout Level"
Nightmare entry screen – the "Recommended Loadout Level" is Epic

In Operation: Egg Heist Team Mode, enemy level is not fixed; only a minimum level is set (Beginner·Hard 50, Nightmare·Chaos Challenge 55). As the difficulty goes up, deployed Aniimo's attributes go from slightly to significantly tuned, and monsters gain one step of Egg Heist ATK·DEF per difficulty. Before leveling your Aniimo, get your BINI #9 gear grade in order first.

For anyone wondering whether leveling up actually hurts in Operation: Egg Heist Team Mode. This post covers Team Mode's enemy level rule (different from island PvP), the deployed Aniimo attribute limits by difficulty, monster buffs and elite counts, and the "Recommended Loadout Level" for each difficulty.
  • Enemy level: island PvP is fixed at Lv.60 · Team Mode has no fixed value, only a minimum level – Beginner·Hard 50 · Nightmare·Chaos Challenge 55
  • Attribute limits: Beginner·Hard "Deployed Aniimo's attributes are slightly tuned!" · Nightmare·Chaos Challenge "significantly tuned!"
  • Monster buffs: Egg Heist ATK·DEF Beginner +0 · Hard +1 · Nightmare +2 · Chaos Challenge +3
  • Elites·boss: up to 1 · 2 · 4 · 5 elite monsters (+1 ATK or DEF), 1 boss (+1 ATK & DEF)

Before you level up

Team Mode
• It is not known whether Team Mode enemy level rises with your Aniimo's level. • What gets stronger as the difficulty rises is the monsters' Egg Heist ATK·DEF. On your side, this value is raised by BINI #9's amplifier·unit. • Match the "Recommended Loadout Level" on the entry screen first (Beginner Uncommon · Hard Rare · Nightmare·Chaos Challenge Epic).

11. Enemy level – fixed in island PvP, only a minimum in Team Mode

  • In island PvP (Operation: Egg Heist), enemy level is set to 60, and deployed Aniimo are also set to Lv.60.
  • In Team Mode (Sanctum), there is no fixed enemy level; each difficulty only has a minimum level. Beginner·Hard 50, Nightmare·Chaos Challenge 55.
  • Since only a minimum is set, enemy level can go higher than that. Whether it follows your Aniimo's level is not known.

22. Deployed Aniimo attribute limits – slightly and significantly

  • Team Mode difficulty descriptions say deployed Aniimo's attributes are tuned: slightly in Beginner·Hard, significantly in Nightmare·Chaos Challenge.
  • The game's description gives no number for how much.
  • This is a different rule from island PvP's fixed stats (Lv.60 · nature · resonance · abilities set per Aniimo).

33. Monster buffs by difficulty – Egg Heist ATK·DEF and elite count

  • Team Mode monsters gain Egg Heist ATK·DEF by difficulty: Beginner +0 · Hard +1 · Nightmare +2 · Chaos Challenge +3.
  • Egg Heist ATK·DEF are attributes used only in Operation: Egg Heist; on your side they are raised by BINI #9's amplifier·unit.
  • Elite monsters come with either a "+1 ATK Buff" or a "+1 DEF Buff", and the boss has a "+1 ATK & DEF Buff".
  • The number of elites rises with the difficulty, and so does the trap damage multiplier.
