Arena at the Edge of Time: The Human Sins
Hey there, heroes!

This week, a new board has appeared at the Arena at the Edge of Time! The Unfortunate Souls II board is here with its first challenge: The Human Sins!

[image]https://cms.battleon.com/DF/images/2026-07-03-UnfortunateSouls2-1DN.png[/image]

Greed has used the Judgement Wheel to attain a human body. Will you be able to defeat him before his growing greed consumes the world? And Aspar has taken human form using the soulthreads of his dear friend. Was his wish granted? His envy escalates ever more!

Defeat them to take their cosmetic helms! However, if you can defeat both of these Corrupted Elemental Spirits at once, you'll earn the Wheel of Greed and Envy, a weapon that can swap between Energy or Poison damage, and inflict a DoT to match!

Do you have what it takes to overcome the The Human Sins? Head over to the Inn at the Edge of Time to find out!



Also this week, a new customization catalyst for DragonLord is available!

The Bonded Dragon Catalyst is available from the Draconic Items shop (Available for an extra month this year!) for 500 Dragon Coins!

Also, July seasonal items have returned!



And that's all for this week!

I want that scythe, but the duo battle has me tearing out my hair. Beating them solo was already a challenge, but the duo is something else. RNG seems to hate me during the duo fight. Gonna take a break from trying to beat them for the time being. Nice release, even though the duo is annoying as heck.

Try beating Envy (i.e. Aspar) first and if you think Escalating Envy stacks too quickly, maybe try planning your shields around the turns he Focuses and avoid attacking him; he gets 10 Envy when he Focuses and another 10 when you interrupt him.

Anyways this is a pretty cool fight and it's nice to see Greed be given justice in the board. The weapon is nice because Poison finally has a BIS now which is indirectly another EnTropy upscale




Raphael 777 -> RE: Friday, July 3rd Design Notes: Arena at the Edge of Time: The Human Sins (7/5/2026 1:36:46)

Yeah, did that. The only problem is that Greed is very RNG, that the the wish he asks the Judgement Wheel can and will mess things up for you. Just managed to get him to a very low amount of HP, only for his DOT to end you, him healing back when he asks for a power buff, or for you to miss when he asks for avoidance. That happened about 7 times already today. Gonna relax and cool down for a while. Might get lucky someday.

Edit: Finally beat them. Now this beauty is finally mine.

Had a clutch win with BMSW. 6 HP, 0 MP by the time Greed got into Annihilation range (Coincidentally, both of them died by said DoT). Postmortem analysis indicates that I nearly threw it all away by failing to slot Lance of Awethur on that decisive turn as I was getting way too many Sight rolls on the Wheel roulette. Nonetheless, a win's a win. Good way to jolt back my Arena instincts after two back-to-back Difficulty 5 challenge releases that are DLSSEX and DLL causing me to have a bit of a break.

EDIT: Looks like Wheel of Greed and Envy got a mechanical change such that it starts off with Poison Element.

I'm not on the Discord so I haven't seen if there's been any discussion on it, but is there any plan to make a non-CC variant of Bonded DL? I got the non-CC helmet and it was kinda sad to see the customization is CC-only.




Deni3000 -> RE: Friday, July 3rd Design Notes: Arena at the Edge of Time: The Human Sins (7/8/2026 15:31:01)

Just got around to attempting this challenge - unrelated to the mechanics of the fight, but I wanted to comment that it's unfortunate when 3 dialogue bubbles pop up as a mid-battle cutscene is happening, especially when the cutscene is too quick to click away the bubbles. It would be nice to have a setting to suppress them with the other battle logs like the original.

Haven't been able to beat the duo fight yet, but the individual fights I feel are a really fun level of challenge.
