Mission Types

[The Overseer]

Now that you have advanced a tiny bit in The Archive's leveling system you have unlocked higher tiers of mission! This chart will be updated as you continue to progress in levels and unlock more difficult missions! (Only three agents on a team need to reach the unlock level)

Color Missions

Sapphire Slot Machine Missions - Unlocked at level 0 - These missions are the most basic of mission types to go on. A multitude of worlds are selected, and then randomized by a gigantic sapphire slot machine. These missions are generally designed to be very easy, and thus offer lower tiers of rewards.
Page Reward - 250

EXP REWARD CHOOSE EITHER
Lvl 0: 150% exp or roll a 1d300
Lvl 1 to Lvl 4: 100% exp or roll a 1d200
Lvl 5 to lvl 8: 45% exp or roll a 1d100
Lvl 9 to 12: 15% exp or roll a 1d30
Lvl 12 to 15: 1% exp or roll 1d15


Emerald Slot Machine Missions - Unlocked at level 5 - These missions are the second most basic of missions. Similar to the sapphire slot machine a world will be randomly chosen for you to complete an assignment in, but these missions will generally be of a higher level of difficulty than the Sapphire missions. These missions are randomized using a gigantic Emerald slot machine.
Page reward - 750

EXP REWARD CHOOSE EITHER
Lvl 0: 300%exp or roll a 1d550
Lvl 1 to 4 200% or roll a 1d350
Lvl 5 to 8: 90% or roll a 1d180
Lvl 9 to 11: 45% or roll 1d100
Lvl 12 to 15: 10% or roll a 1d20

Emerald Selected Missions - Unlocked at level 5 - Sometimes people have a specific world in mind that they want to do a mission in, and don't want to bet their luck on a slot machine. These missions allow you to just vote on what world you want to go to with your team for a mission. The lack of randomness does result in a 50 page decrease in credit rewards, and a 25% decrease in EXP rewards.  (EX you take the 300% you instead get 275%)

Platinum Slot Missions - Unlocked at level 20 - Everyone picks five worlds to have a chance of randomly going to. These missions can include running into very dangerous enemies, and unlike previous colored missions the Archive will not be scaling down their power to make them easy to take on. Be prepared for some truly tough encounters, and some challenging times!
BASE PAGE REWARD: 10,000 Pages

Lvl 0: 800% exp or roll a 1d1600
Lvl 1 to 4: 700% exp or roll 1d1000
Lvl 5 to 8: 500% exp or roll a 1d700
Lvl 9 to 11: 200% exp or roll a 1d450
Lvl 12 to 15: 100% exp or roll a 1d200
Lvl 16 to 19: 65% exp or roll a 1d120
Lvl 20 to 24: 45% exp or roll a 1d85
Lvl 25 to 29: 25% exp or roll a 1d50
Lvl 30 to Lvl 35: 10% exp or roll a 1d25
Lvl 36 to Lvl 40: 1% exp or roll a 1d5

GOD MISSIONS

Tier 1 God Missions - Unlocked at level 10 - There are many very powerful beings out in the multiverse that desire help from an organization with skilled employees such as The Archive. By selecting to put yourself up for one of these missions you will be given a small selection to choose from, and then sent to go assist the deity with whatever they're asking help for. Rewards from this mission will often include something called a boon, a gift given by gods that imparts bits of their power onto you giving you new abilities and stats. At your current level they come in three types.

Hope - This type is known for giving better item and page rewards at the cost of less exp - Average Page Reward: 3000 page

EXP REWARD CHOOSE EITHER
Lvl 0: 310% exp or roll a 1d450
Lvl 1 to 4: 210% or roll a 1d300
Lvl 5 to 8: 100% or roll a 1d210
Lvl 9 to 11: 50% or roll 1d110
Lvl 12 to 15: 15% or roll 1d45
Lvl 16 to 19: 7% or roll a 1d35
Lvl 20 to 24: 3% or roll a 1d15
Lvl 25 and up: 0.85% or roll a 1d2-1

Destiny - This type is known for giving a better mixture of items and exp - Average Page Reward: 1500 pages
Lvl 0: 410% exp or roll a 1d570
Lvl 1 to 4: 300% or roll a 1d500
Lvl 5 to 8: 125% or roll a 1d270
Lvl 9 to 11: 60% or roll a 1d130
Lvl 12 to 15: 25% or roll a 1d60
Lvl 16 to 19: 15% or roll a 1d45
Lvl 20 to 24: 7%  or roll a 1d15
Lvl 25 and up: 2.15% or roll a 1d3-1

Courage - This type is known for giving better exp rewards than item rewards - Average Page Reward: 900 pages.  (For those walking the path of the Unedited Story they may find that it is more common to get multiple universals from these missions.)
Lvl 0: 600% exp or roll a 1d1000
Lvl 1 to 4: 500% exp or roll 1d800
Lvl 5 to 8: 250% exp or roll a 1d500
Lvl 9 to 11: 95% exp or roll a 1d200
Lvl 12 to 15: 65% exp or roll a 1d120
Lvl 16 to 19: 45% exp or roll a 1d80
Lvl 20 to 24: 10% exp or roll a 1d30
Lvl 25 and up: 3.6% or roll a 1d6-1

SPECIAL

Chris' Apocalypse Squad - While BB is gone off to God knows where (and even this God has no clue where) her Apocalypse Squad missions served an important function. They saved worlds that were on the brink and total destruction, saving billions of lives in the process. So, I wanted to keep that spirit alive. When you start these missions, you'll be placed into a world I've found on the brink of total destruction, and your job will be to avoid that destruction. The item and page rewards are much less than Holographic or Faith missions. However, the EXP table is identical to Holo AND you are guaranteed a universal from this type of mission based on your actions, whether you are Stamped are not. Stamped characters will receive a lot of universals from this mission type. At least one member of your team must be level 30 to begin. And just a warning, Apocalypses tend to be created by incredibly powerful beings. These missions will almost always be very combat-heavy, and not easy combat either! Come prepared!

Proofreading - The story of the multiverse is full of Plot Holes, Narrative abnormalities that cause things to happen that don’t make logical sense when examined closely. These missions are an attempt to help clean these Plot Holes up before they tear apart the stories they’re in - and to find out why the hell they’re happening. These aren’t official Archive missions, just letting you know. More just… sandboxes I’m rewarding you for. These missions are gonna be more investigation and roleplay-heavy with a lot less combat (although combat may absolutely still happen, especially if you start punching security guards). Look around carefully and you’ll be rewarded for your inquisitive nature!

OTHER

Training Missions! - Unlocked at level 5 - These missions allow you to train up your skills. Rather than get rewards they usually cost you something to go on. for full explanation of various training mission types see this thread. 

Arena Events! - Unlocked at level 5 - Various events are ongoing in the Arena that you can choose to participate in instead of a mission. These events will change often so remember to check in on this thread frequently to see what's currently going on. 

Kur's Special! - When Kur Fucking Feels Like It - Kur decides to teach her friends about a great team building exercise! TableTop Roleplaying Games! If this mission choice is picked Kur will run a tabletop for everyone to enjoy!

A Mysterious CD - When Someone Inserts The Disc - Vesper found a weird disc, and has no idea what the fuck it is. It might just blowup her computer. Still, if something weird happens she wants you guys to deal with it instead of her.

ADVANCED MISSIONS

As you grow in power here in The Archive, you may find yourself becoming rather bored with the offerings of our standard missions. In pursuit of the creation of stronger and more interesting stories, and to aid you in your quest for growth, we are introducing the following advanced mission tiers for both Colored Missions and God Missions. These will not be easy missions, with enemies scaled accordingly to your increased power. Good luck.

Advanced Colored Missions:
Holographic Slot Machine Missions - Unlocked at Level 30 - The current max level of colored mission available in The Archive, only accessible by our most powerful agents. Every agent attending must choose five worlds, and the mission's universe will be randomized from the collective choices. The foes you encounter in these missions will not only be at their original power levels, some may even be scaled UP to greater power than they possessed before. I'm sure you've encountered strife in your day-to-day Archive missions, but nothing like this. Do keep in mind that this type of mission will provide the most EXP of any extant mission at the time of writing, meaning if you are simply attempting to "power-level", this is the ideal mission type for you. Good luck.

LVL 46-50: 3% OR 1D5

Advanced God Missions
Tier 2 God Missions - Unlocked at Level 30 - Many of the deities you encounter in your travels require more help than your average Archive agent is able to provide. Tier 2 God missions are where the divine place their most dangerous and important tasks and, as a result, provide the most powerful rewards. These are the only types of mission capable of providing the Perfected Boon as well the highly coveted Avatar Boon of a deity. Similar to tier 1 missions, they are organized into three separate reward brackets. Keep in mind the different missions have no tangible differences for their content, but only in their rewards at the end.

Faith - The advanced version of the Hope missions. Like Hope, these missions give both better item rewards and better boon rewards. As a result, they give poor EXP. If material gain or divine favor is your goal, this is the ideal mission type for you.

LVL 46-50: 0% OR 1D10-5


Purpose - The advanced version of the Destiny missions. Like Destiny, these missions are a balance between experience, material gain, and divine favor. If a balanced lifestyle is what you seek, this is the ideal mission type for you.

LVL 41-45: 3% OR 1D5
LVL 46-50: 1% OR 1D5-2

Valor - The advanced version of the Courage missions. Like Courage, these missions give huge EXP rewards while also still giving you boons (Although not as powerfully as the other two mission types). Even if you are not a "Stamped" character, you may even be more likely to get a universal from particularly effective actions in these types of missions. As a result of this, their material rewards are rather poor. If you wish to grow exponentially while courting the divine at the same time, this is the ideal mission type for you.

Aegis of Creation - History is unfortunately repeating itself as the threat of the encroaching Void becomes greater and greater. In these missions, you'll aid The Drifter in rebuilding The Aegis of Creation after its destruction years ago, protect Creation form the forces of The Hollow King, and ultimately restore balance between Creation and Void. These missions will be incredibly dangerous - the threat of absolute annihilation will be an ever-present threat. But completing them has incredible financial rewards as well as really good experience rewards. However, in light of the high pay, you won't get any equipment. Look at the money as a voucher to get your own.

Anthology - A new mission time similar to sandboxes but with a little bit of a twist. Similar to a colored mission, everyone will put in a vote for a single world to go to. However, unlike a colored mission, we'll be going to more than one of these worlds! This number will be determined by the DM running the mission - could be all of them, could be 5 or whatever they feel up to running. It'll be a round robin sandbox where we'll get a round of turns in each world until we make it through the whole sequence. You won't get any money, equipment, or experience for these missions - but you will get a lot of universals! Experience what it's like to walk The Path of The Unedited Story! You'll find that you'll get universals much easier than normal doing these missions. Those actually ON The Path of The Unedited Story will get a universal for pretty much everything they do. You can get one universal from each world you go to, unless you do something VERY special.

The Archive League
- Pokemon fever is sweeping The Archive! Agents from all over the multiverse are bringing their best Pokemon to compete in The Archive League, the ultimate proof of your Pokemon’s mettle and the ultimate challenge for any Pokemon trainer! These will be solo missions in which you challenge one of the infinite Archive gyms and try to come out victorious! Normal Pokemon rules apply - you may only have a maximum of six Pokemon on your team and you CANNOT interfere with the matches any more than instructing your friends on what to do!

These missions will typically be a fairly quick series of battles against two trainers and then face off against the gym leader themselves. You’ll get a certain amount of experience for your Pokemon for each Pokemon you defeat - so this is the OPTIMAL way to train your Pokemon. Whatever level your Pokemon are, you’ll face off against an appropriate challenge. So what are you waiting for? Grab your poke balls, try to get eight gym badges, and challenge The Archive Tournament to become the Pokemon Master of the entire Multiverse! Don’t have any Pokemon? Well, better jump in a Pokemon sandbox and try to get some, shouldn’t you?

These missions will not give any experience to the trainer of the Pokemon, but you will receive money and some Pokemon specific items if you’re victorious. The higher badge level you’re challenging, the more money you’ll receive… and the harder the challenge will be. These missions are text only.

Expedition Text Missions

These missions will be longer, for the time being during their trial run, they will only be avaliable as text missions until the DMs state otherwise, due to their potential length when running them. They will be limited to players who have reached level 30, even if you have prestiged, though lower level players may join a level 30 player on one of these missions, understanding that the risk to their lives is significantly higher. As always, stamped characters do not have this level limitation.

As stated before, these missions will run a little longer, and are designed to be solved over a period of several in game days, putting a strain on your resources. Abilities that are specifically labeled once per mission will not refresh at the start of the day, though abilities that are once per day will refresh at the start of the day. Fighting may not always be the best option, and may result in a mission failure, and creative solutions and investigation may be required to solve the mission. Based on your actions it may become impossible to complete the mission, resulting in a mission failure. You may not always know what action led to this, as the directive may not always be immediately obvious.

Due to their length, Expedition Missions would give slightly more in the way of EXP and rewards, but would intentionally be built to pull more effort to complete from the players. These missions while neccesarily not being physically threatening would have a higher chance of failure due to the nature of needing to figure out exactly what they’re supposed to be doing once they’re there. Mission goals are not intended to be obvious.

Players would only be allowed to request these missions as text missions once per month, and are unable to request a second one while already participating in one as a text mission. Voice missions are to the DMs discretion.

Mission Reward Breakdown
Mission Type: Expedition
World: Would be generated like colored missions, (Sapphire, Emerald, Platinum, Holographic)
Mission Objective: Ambiguous. Bonus objectives may be revealed while on the mission, and may distract from the mission, but are only rewarded if the mission objective is successful.
Participants: No more than 3 due to length in text. Voice missions may be capped depending on DM Discretion due to the difficulty in arranging multiple players for a multi part mission. Only players that attended the first part my attend further parts.
Slain Participants: Receive no universals, a percentage of EXP due to how long they survived, (I.E.: X0.33 of EXP if survived 1/3 days). Half page reward.

| UNIVERSAL REWARDS |

All players receive 1 Universal based off of something they did while on the mission.

Stamped characters receive 1 universal + 1-2 universals per day they’re on the mission. Missions lasting longer than three days would drop to 0-1 universals per day, requiring more impressive feats.
