Had it drop twice and bought two. Never again. The drops are worthless. For such a big DPs check you should get something.

I've got to ask the OP to change the title a bit. I keep reading Trove! as Towel and it's starting to bug me.

i was lvl 90 and halfway to 91, i lost it all,

and it alll over
just. like. that.

too confident from my 3rd run that i didnt reep
Today, Dh and I played another round of oba's and this time the drops are better, a 78 map and 1 unique and 4% gems.



Had an oba's sitting in my stash until I leveled my tornado shot character.

Finally gave it a crack today and no problemo.

Shame about the rubbish drops from the chests.
I still think this map is just another "let's make it impossible for poorer players" map.
DPS-check? Fuck that.
I tried it together with a friend, he CoC ST lvl 89, me Tornado Shot lvl 87.
We did not succeed, although killing quite fast (we reached lvl 76, but then the countdown started), and I count us to the higher DPS builds.
So, to beat this map, you are required to have godly items like 6L extreme dam/crit weapon and 6L armor, all 20/20 gems and so on... or any OP build that's broken anyway. Really? Great! Thank you... NOT!

I find it very sad that GGG does:
- create more and more content impossible to reach or succeed in without massive wealth / broken builds/skills
- create more and more items that are utterly useless to anyone (e.g. great uniques like the new Broken Crown), just to increase the unique pool
I managed it solo with an undergeared, underleveled SRS, mostly down to the heat seeking nature of the little angry skulls.

Frigging close though. Wouldn't have bothered if it wasn't a challenge map.

Massive thanks to GGG for producing such a fun and engaging game, it has taken up faaaaaaar too much of my life over the last 5 years.

Best of luck in the future!
