Tortodrones - New Arena Levels?

Hello!

I don't know if this has been mentioned before (apologies if it has) but there seem to be new Fiend arena levels in the Clockworks for the March of the Tortodrones event.

These levels include:

  • Floor glyphs like the ones in Devillish Drudgery scenario rooms.
  • Spike blocks like the ones seen in the newest Vanguard missions
  • Graviton explosion blocks such as the ones in the newest Vanguard missions
  • Normal poison Fiend monsters - no new ones.

Upon completion of the first arena, one of each Tortodrone glyph (Amu, Sol, Ur, etc) was dropped at the central glyph. Pretty neat!

Here's a screenshot that I took of the arena's first level.

The arena in question is located on Depth 26 of Jade Clover Gate, and is still in rotation.
Unfortunately, I didn't do the second or third arenas (because I'm a scrub and Greavers are hard) and, again, I'm sorry if this information is known and you've seen this before - I just thought its was pretty cool that Grey Havens had added some variety to the arenas for the event, and the new blocks lead me to believe that these arenas are completely new - if this is the case, then thanks Grey Havens! This stuff is pretty awesome!
(If really hard for a newb vanguard)

Thoughts?

Interesting, I have not seen these before. I've been running the arenas in the two newest gates but they were normal arenas for me.

Perhaps it was added in last nights update as a hidden change?

Thanks for sharing!

They've been in this event before.
They replace fiend arenas at around a 50% chance. They're only available in the arcade during the event.
That being said, I haven't run into the clockwork tunnels or devilish drudgery event rooms yet this event. That could be due to the arcade not containing any fiend clock tunnels/devilish drudgery depths.

Ooh

Thanks for the wiki link!

Although it's not new, the Fiend arenas are still a good way of getting Glyphs - I'd strongly advise going through them (despite the Greavers) even though the chances of the arena showing up and the fact that its not the only floor on the depth means that there's only about a 1/4 chance of getting it.

Still, it's pretty fancy, and I love the idea of new arenas for certain events, alongside Scenario Rooms!
