6th spawn point in the Crucible?

Grim Dawn General Discussion

I didn’t wanna put this in the bug reporting, because it’s probably not a bug and I’m just being stupid. But anyway, I was trying out some of my newer characters in the Crucible for the first time to see how they perform and I can’t seem to activate the 6th spawn point for any of them.

As I recall you had to complete 150-170 on Gladiator difficulty and then you should get the option next reset. But nope, the option to tell Lokarr “I think you can do better” is not appearing. Did it with three different characters to be sure. Am I just doing it wrong somehow? I also tried just doing 150 (and also 100-150) and then resetting. Still nothing.

I did use a Gladiator’s Merit (or whatever it’s called) to originally unlock the difficulty for them, in case that matters. I can only activate the extra spawn point with one character (the one I originally did the achievements like a year ago).

As a sidenote, the Crucible also feels extremely easy. I recall it being much harder. I’m definitely on Gladiator though. I even recorded it to be sure.

you need to manually uprun from a lower checkpoint iirc, as the 6th spawn trigger is prior the checkpoint enabled by using the token, so like if trigger is wave 100 you need to uprun from 50 (or possibly just use the 100th wave checkpoint, insta die and use the continue from lower point option letting you uprun from 80-90 perhaps?)

edit. seems manual passing 100 might indeed be it

This sounds like it should work for me then, since at least one of the characters I tried didn’t even exist before this.

Well, it’s not that big a deal. I don’t much enjoy Crucible anyway. But, I’ll keep trying. Thanks for the answer.
