Challenge Delves start at the Depth 110 and Easy portal will always have this depth as starting one.
However, every time a group of players or single player progress through the Challenge Delve, their personal difficulty will be locked to the last completed Challenge Delve depth.
> For example, you start alone at 110 and complete 15 Challenge Delves. Next time you place Challenge Mode portal this week your starting difficulty will be 125, but Easy Challenge portals will still open a 110 Depth no matter your progression.
At the end of every week all personal progressions decay by 8, but will never drop below 110.
> For example, you reached Challenge Delve Depth of 130 this week, next week your personal Challenge Mode portal will offer 122 starting Depth.
As with the Private portals, Challenge Delve portals can be placed anywhere where you have building rights, and any players can queue in.
Note: Only one Delve Gateway (Challenge Mode) or Delve Gateway (Challenge Easy) can be placed by player at a time. If additional ones are placed they will disappear right away.
Player who placed the Challenge Delve Portal of any kind gets automatically queued for that Delve. Up to 7 other people can queue together with the portal owner. Only queued players will be able to get re-invited for Delve after it stats.
Same as with Private portals, Challenge Portal owner can interact with it at any moment. First interaction will send a message to queued players to get ready. Second interaction will rush the queue and send everyone queued into that Delve. If at any moment a full set of 8 players is queued, the portal will trigger and send everyone in the Delve right away.
If a Challenge Delve Portal of any type is broken using the mining laser, it will return to the owner’s inventory and unqueue all queued players.
Note: At least one person should stay with the portal. If all nearby players run away from it, it will unqueue everyone and destroy itself.
Challenge delves allow players to change their class at will. However, only Delve mounts and Wings can be used in Private Delves COLLECTION LINK
The /joinme chat command can be used to re-invite players that were queued to the portal and entered the starting Delve.
Some Leadeboards are based on Challenge Delves progression. Check Weekly Contests or Delves tab!
