Fifteen Reasons Why (video game)/Master Mode

Master Pensive Mode or Master Mode is the harder gameplay of the entire game, unlocked if one of your characters is Level 406 AND has completed The Catacombs - Master Mode Floor 7 on the same profile. The events are set back by a few years, and all gameplay aspects are significantly harder.

Differences between Normal Gameplay and Master (Pensive) Mode

 * Only Master Mode is available for The Catacombs dungeon, and the first floor (Master Mode - Floor I) is unlocked at Level 150 instead of Level 300.
 * Year 5 Spans from Levels 200-300 instead of 200-250
 * Likewise, Year 7 only spans from Levels 350-400 instead of 300-400.
 * The Rebirth of the Dark Lord (2015) aspects are significantly harder, and features a unique fight against Fenrir Greyback.
 * The fight's mechanics are unique to the rest of the game. Similar to Wynncraft's ROL IV, you either die or defeat the boss to progress.
 * It replaces The Catacombs - Master Mode Floor IV

Tips and Advice
__NOINDEX__ __NONEWSECTIONLINK__
 * When fighting Greyback in Inoia State Park, consider bringing gear that drastically boosts your EHP (Effective Health), and an AOE Magic Weapon (preferably a Hyperion or Scylla). The higher ability damage, the better, as Greyback is immune to all forms of Elemental Damage.
 * Consider crafting the Wolf Artifact or Relic, as it adds a special ability that grants immunity to Lycanthropy. That way, if you either die or "defeat" Greyback, you can skip the part where you have to meet up with Snape for a Lycanthropy Vaccine Potion. This strat is commonly used by speedrunners.
 * However, Defeating Greyback will spawn 20 Runic Dementors with 36.8Qi HP each. The patronus charm, resurrection stone, and any Necromancy summon-related items (such as the summoning ring, Reaper Mask's second and third ability and Reaper Scythe's ability) is disabled at this part of the fight.
 * If Safe Mode is enabled (due to COPPA laws, since the game is MMORPG-based, it has to be made available for younger audiences), dying to Greyback will turn you into a ghost, similar to a dungeon run. Once you are revived after 10 seconds, you are taken straight back to the start of the Third Task, skipping the entire cutscene.
 * There's also the possibility of your game crashing if you die just as Greyback is killed if Safe Mode is enabled. If that happens, you will have to start the fight over again.
