Does anyone else go to tier 3 even though it may not have Vana? And what about the missions does anyone do them? What do you think of the missions?

People basically do rank missions to get access vana place instantly (the last mission).
Most likely the reason is to get 5 star recipes but lots of people doing it for fun, especially with elevator pass.

Don't know if late or trolling...

It was guessed that T3 missions would have vana, to keep up with the pattern. And was not the missions tested in test servers?

Shadow Lairs

Shadow Lairs, Arenas, and Recipe runs

Those are the only reasons to go to Tier 3 without visiting FSC (excluding missions).

fiend-themed strata 6

A Stratum 6 other than FSC can be a welcome change of pace, when FSC gets too dull. A fiend-themed Stratum 6 can be quite challenging, for example.

Sure, I've done tier 3

Sure, I've done tier 3 without Vanaduke a lot of times. Why? Because that's the fun part of the game. Vanaduke is the single buggiest, most broken, ill-conceived level in the entire game. Looping it endlessly constitutes insanity.

To Demonicsothe: Don't know if late or trolling...

How am I "late" I don't even go on the forums much and if I do it's just to ask questions. And I don't "troll" because it's the first time I ever heard the term and don't care to know what that means.

The missions could pay off a tad better, but I suppose if you were to repeat the first depth 10 times (let's say, Beyond Axes of Evil), you could make enough to buy 100 CE and make 500 cr profit. Whoo hoo? I suppose that's the sacrifice you have to make to do something besides boring ol' Banana Duck.

I'm hunting minerals tirelessly to make a Gremlin Stratum in T3. 'cause why the hell not? It sure beats doing King of Ashes 5 billion times in a row, as well as having to deal with LOLFIENDS everywhere.

I do lots of T3 outside of

I do lots of T3 outside of vana. With reselling 5* boss token recipes and rare material drops it pays out just as well (if not better) than Vana. However, you have to go solo and get a good theme or else you won't collect enough mats or get bad ones. For example, a jelly theme is almost worthless in terms of mats.

I also like to do danger rooms. I'll do any I pass unless I'm geared completely opposite and have no health pills.
