Questions about the Farmstead

[Schnörkel]

Firstly, what exactly is the requirement for the endgame reflections to appear, 200 kills in the endless mode only or in all of the games areas combined? I got reflections before I started my first mission into the Farmstead, and wonder if that is intended.

Secondly, after I finish an endless mission, the week counter progresses, but no time passes in the hamlet. Heroes are still locked into their stress treatment as if I hadn't left. Is that normal as well?

Yes. Even though it's goofy for it to work that way, it doesn't really have any gameplay effects in anything but Stygian, where it eats up your remaining weeks (while not giving you any stress relief). Arguably it's a minor nuisance if it brings events like Vvulf closer but by the time you're doing regular Endless missions you shouldn't be worried about him much (or you already dealt with him).
