Okay so I got all the requirements to enter, but I just don't know what I'm exactly doing in Penthalpa. I've read the japanese wiki via Google Translate but I don't get the gist of what I'm supposed to do in order to get the plug in. Is the "Kauri" a drop item I'm supposed to turn in to Gomory? Am I supposed to eventually kill off the entire room i 10 minutes in order to get both the Kauri and Bethel points? Some light on this issue would be appreciated ; Wiki article on Pethalpa megatenonline.wiki.fc2.com/wiki/%E3%83%9A%E3%83%B3%E3%82%BF%E3%83%AB%E3%83%95%E3%82%A1

From what i know, Kauri is the white point (if u click on pentalpha option, the one at the bottom of all other points). You will get kauri every week based on the demon you chose to fight for that week. If you fight for demon that is winning that week, you will get more Kauri compared to fighting for demon that is losing. Simply put, if you fight alongside Indrajit this week, which is ranked 1st atm, you will get more Kauri than fighting for, let say, Indra, which is ranked 2nd atm.
If there's a mistake, do correct me ^^

Basically, Pentalpha run is a 10-minute "kill as many demons as possible" thing. You get Bethel points towards the demon you aligned yourself with that week depending on how many kills you get in each 10-min run. The more demons you kill, the more Bethel you gain. You can do as many runs as you want, there's no cooldown or limit as far as I'm aware, however when you align with a demon you can only do runs for that demon (so if you pick, say, Misha, you can only accumulate Bethel for him until the Monday reset when you get to pick again) until your Pentalpha allegiance resets on Monday @ noon. That's also when you get your Kauri for the previous week, like how Kiha explained. For Order-Breaker Loki you'll need to get 20k Bethel from each demon allegiance, and 1000 Kauri. You'll easily get the required 1k Kauri while working towards the Bethel requirement, so don't worry about that part too much. You can do Pentalpha in parties, if everyone in your party is good at killing it will make your Bethel gain much faster. For example, I usually get around 400 per run solo, but when I teamed up with a enh friend and his OP Vasuki we were getting almost 1k Bethel per run. So if you know anyone else who wants that Loki plugin, it would be smart to try and team up with them IMO Pentalpha isn't super hard, but it is REALLY boring/grindy, hahaha. Depending on the demon you're aligned with, only 5 elements will work, and every 2 minutes one of those elements will change to drain. For example, in Kudlak runs the only elements that will work are slash, penetrate, force, magic, charge, and ice. Everything else, even almighty, will drain. And every 2 minutes, one of the 5 listed elements will also drain, so it's a good idea to have at least two of the usable elements at your disposal. That way you'll always have at least one way to successfully attack. Here are the usable attack types for each demon's Pentalpha runs: Indra - Charge, Blunt, Pistol, Fire, Magic, Lightning Mishaguji-sama - Charge, Blunt, Penetrate, Force, Lightning, Nerve Kresnik - Slash, Blunt, Shotgun, Ice, Force, Mind Indrajit - Slash, Charge, Fire, Pistol, Lightning, Nerve Kudlak - Slash, Charge, Penetrate, Force, Magic Hope that makes sense.

Thank you so much, it confirms that I wasn't going crazy with the resistances ; I have to get my clan mates to Class A first, and only 2 want Breaker Loki. I don't really know where I could pick the demon I'd like to align with (I just randomly clicked til I reached Penta)... oh and if my party members come with me to that specifically aligned demon.

Usually after the reset, you will get 5 options with same wording. Just like it shows in the pentalpha option, the top is Indra, followed by Mishaguji, Kresnik, Indrajit and Kudlak.
