The Colosseum — Scythe FFXI

A custom arena zone with timed boss fights. When it launches, the Colosseum will be the primary source of Exemplar Points (EP) — the currency used for Master Levels. The design below documents the intended system; values are subject to change before release.

Until it launches — where EP comes from

The Colosseum itself is not yet playable. Right now, Exemplar Points come from:

Siege raids — server-wide 5-wave events awarding EP on participation. Watch linkshell chat for the siege-start announcement.
Boosted Abyssea NMs — selected Abyssea NMs award bonus EP alongside retail Abyssea rewards. See the Other Features page.

When the Colosseum ships it slots in alongside these as the highest-throughput EP source. Your Master Level progress carries forward — no reset.

Intended Design — 5 Tiers

Tier	ML Required	EP Reward
Bronze	0	1,250
Silver	5	5,000
Gold	15	18,750
Platinum	30	50,000
Mythril	40	125,000

Each tier holds multiple unique boss fights with their own mechanics. Boss level and HP scale with tier. EP rewards above are the base value — challenge modes multiply.

5 Challenge Modes

Normal — standard fight, up to 6 players
Hard — 1.5x HP, 1.3x stats, extra adds spawn, 1.5x EP reward
Speed Kill — 0.8x HP but only 40% of the time limit, 2x EP reward
Solo — 0.5x HP, solo only, 2.5x EP reward
No Magic — no spells allowed, 0.7x HP, 1.8x EP reward

Gauntlet mode available — fight consecutive bosses within a tier, ascending through tiers, or endurance runs. Gauntlet rewards scale with streak length.
