Arena Mode Slow Start
A problem both PN1 and PN2's arena modes had in my opinion is that they had really slow starts. I get that you literally start as a lowly cannonfodder grunt and work your way up from there, which is fine the first time round, but I've been absolutely unable to bother starting a second character even with the optional tester headstart bonuses and honestly fear a future character reset coming with the rework just because it's such a slog to get anywhere.

Are there any plans to address this matter in the rework? Hell even a cheat code for EXP or something. Just something to make those consecutive playthroughs a little less of a drag. I want to make my maximized speed boy, but I just can't be arsed.

Patience or a time machine.

I know that feeling. I have the same issue its just so painfully slow starting. I personally just open cheat engine and change my exp values because lets face it spending 5 out 10 mins in a mission just pressing the space bar to farm agility exp is really boring.

you are aware that there are checkboxes on the arena character creation windows that allows you to start with exp and money right?

not to mention the only thing you gotta do to get quickly on your toes is level up melee to 2 which means you gotta save 1225 melee exp, and you are set, and you get melee weapons at the end of the first stage mission, it shouldn't take more than 20 or so minutes to do first stage once to get melee weapon and skill level 1 and 3 times murder room killing with only meele to get melee skill to 2, same if you want to go for unarmed focused, and if you want guns you just gotta do abandoned outpost on normal with 2 hirelings or more to tank some hits while you kill everything, any of this will take you less than an hour to do

"but I've been absolutely unable to bother starting a second character even with the optional tester headstart bonuses" Although in hindsight that wording actually implies I never started a second character, but I did. I just couldn't be bothered getting it too far.

It's still a pretty tedious affair overall, but I guess really that's just Arena mode by design. I suppose I'm just hoping that the early parts of the progression curve require less grinding in future.
