== About ==
Purgatory is a new extension of our custom instance difficulty system. All instances have a Purgatory difficulty, that apply several changes to the instance, in order to make them more challenging:
* All mobs are subject to a global aura that increases their damage, HP, and the new stats introduced in 4th job patch, RES and MRES.
* Re-entry is NOT allowed.
* Token of Siegfrieds cannot be used.
* Special effects may trigger upon killing a mob.
* Part of the damage a party member takes is shared screenwide.
* Mobs are immune to max HP drains and movement impairing effects.
== Purgatory Aura ==
All monsters inside Purgatory increase their HP, RES, MRES, ATK by a random value that ranges according to your party size. Party count is measured in lengths of 2:
* 4 party members or less is a party count of 1
* 6 party members is a party count of 2
* 8 party members is a party count of 3
* 10 party members or more is a party count of 4
=== Avoidance ===
To prevent players from simply dodging old monsters, Flee and Perfect Dodge are converted into a new stat: Avoidance.
For each 1 point in Avoidance, you have a 1% chance of dodging an attack, similar to Perfect Dodge. You can calculate your Avoidance with the formula:
<big>'''Avoidance = (Flee/100)*2 + (Perfect Dodge/10)*4'''</big>
== Bombs and Balloons ==
As you party kill monsters, there's a random chance of one of your party members turning into a Bomb or a Balloon. After someone turns into either, after a few seconds they will deal damage to themselves and around themselves based on their HP:
* Bomb deals 30% of their Max HP as damage. This damage will be <font color="red">INCREASED by 30%</font> of the Bomb's Max HP for each party member around the bomb.
* Balloon deals 100% of their Max HP as damage. This damage will be <font color="cyan">DECREASED by 10%</font> of the Balloon's Max HP for each party member around the balloon.
