Just finished a couple arena levels, it seems they've been reduced to just 3 waves (at least in tier 2).
Is anyone else seeing this? They're far too easy now.
Arenas got neutered?

Because danger room + arena
Because danger room + arena is too profitable, just like jelly king runs was before.

Err?
I just did the three arenas prior to the RJP and they seemed normal. The usual... some waves with lots of gun puppies, some with a billion mecha knights...

I sure as hell hope they didn't do that, I was just settling in with the new prices for crafting and this will screw up all my plans again.

I don't think this happened, ran a few and they seem the same...

Seems normal to me.
I went through the arena just now, and it didn't seem any different. Like culture said, there were lots of gun puppies and it finished off with an army of mecha knights.

"Because danger room + arena is too profitable, just like jelly king runs was before."
yea and runs being profitable are a problem for OOO since the runs must barely give you enough cr to buy ce and thus not being able to progress in the game, causing frustration and forcing ppl to spend money in the game out of spite instead of doing it to support a good game.
this game never ceases to amaze me specially with the new item being 800 CE (more obvious than that cant be)

I did a JK run right before
I did a JK run right before the auction house fix reboot, the 3 arenas I did(3 different arena floors) were the same as usual.

Nothing's different
I haven't noticed any difference in Tier 2 arenas following the update. Maybe you just got shorted on spawns?

No moar trojans!
only giant lichen colonies!
That's the only different thing I've noticed.

RE: No moar trojans!
Nope, trojans are still there. I just got out of an arena with at least one trojan. I say "at least" because there were also at least ten gremlin bombers and I could barely see myself.

Arenas
@original poster
I just did 0-29. My friend pointed out the same thing and I confirmed it across all three tiers. There are only three waves instead of four or whatever it used to be. It's definitely a nerf.

Could it be a specific gate
Could it be a specific gate that has this issue, or is it in multiple gates?

If it's a nerf, I'm rather conflicted.
On one hand, those Arenas are really tough to begin with (and then I hear people telling me to up my game).
On the other hand, the profitability of runs will go down.
I'd like a dev response to the "ninja nerf". These things are starting to get out of control.

I call BS.
OP is just unaware of all the different flavours of arenas out there and happened upon one that had different waves from what they expected. We get no information whatsoever about what really happened, where and how to verify this. And of course all the OOO bashers chime in to tell us what a crappy game this is.
I hope this isn't true, Arenas are so fun. :(
