Hey guys, I create this thread to provide some FAQ for you. If you have any question, feel free to put them all here. I’ll also update this post with more common questions
Q: What is BA/lvl/LP/pvp?
A: BA = Battle Arena, lvl = level, LP=league point, pvp=player vs player.
Q: My character is at lvl20 in the BA, is this intended?
A: Yes, all characters are capped at lvl20. This is meant to avoid one hit kills
Q: Since my character’s lvl is capped at lvl20, how about my affixes/item lvl/talents during pvp?
A: All of them are also capped at (scale down to) lvl20, including mythstone affixes.
Q: Somehow, I can’t enter the BA.
A: You have to be online to enter the BA. Return to the Main Menu and press the DQ Account button.
Q: I did turn on wifi/3G/4G but still can’t enter the BA.
A: Make sure your connection is working, if you can upload to the DQ Account system you should be “online” please email support@shinyboxgames.com if you still have issues.
Q: Am I pvp-ing a real player on the other end?
A: No, you’re playing against AI.
Q: What’s LP? How does it works?

Q: What’s round/match?
A: Anyone who wins 3 rounds will eventually win the match and earn LP.
Q: What’s going to happen to draw rounds?
A: Each time there’s a draw round, both you and your opponent(s) will have your DMG increased by 25%. This DMG will stack until one of you won.
Q: What’s going to happen if I leave match?
A: The game will understand that you lost and you’ll lose your MMR and LP.
Q: What’s MMR?
A: MMR stands for Matchmaking Rating. When you win an opponent, you’ll earn MMR. And of course, when you lose, you’ll lose MMR. Basically, it’s just a number the server use to match you with other players at your rank.
Q: Why do I have to fight people on higher/lower league?
A: The game find matches base on MMR system, since your MMR is close to the other player, you’re matched with him.
Q: What can I get from the BA chests?
A: It can be anything, gold, normal/magic/rare/epic/legend/eternal items, CS/MS, trophies, Gladiator set.
Q: What’s a trophy? Do trophies have any effect in the Dungeon?
A: Trophies are special items. They have their own affixes. These only work within the BA. Also, they can only be found by opening BA chests.
Q: How can I obtain the Gladiator set? What is it for? Does it have any effect in the Dungeon?
A: Like trophies, Gladiator set only works within the BA and can only be found by opening BA chests. Also, Gladiator set affix can’t be obtained by applying Amethyst.
Q: What’s Streak? How does it work?
A: Each time you win, your Streak will increase. The higher it is, the tougher opponent you will face. If you lose, your Streak will be back to 0.
Q: So what’s the differences between Streak and MMR?
A: Sometimes you’re fighting opponents who have lower or same as your MMR. But if you have really high Streak, you’ll be fighting opponents who have higher/a lot higher MMR than you.
Q: Are there any chance to get real time pvp? I mean, pvp against real people not AI.
A: No, since DQ is an offline game in the first place, it’s meant to work offline and would take months to re-code the whole game. So, I don’t think there will be real time pvp
