Fast answer
The answer before the background
Otherworld legends modes include the randomly generated core dungeon, named scenes and difficulty layers plus later systems such as Rift, Battlefield, Auto Chess, Spatial Interstice, Kingfall, Paragon-style challenges and time-limited events. These modes do not share one optimal build or reward table. State scene, Anguish, hero, update and objective before applying a guide; a daily fixed-hero speedrun is not normal campaign progression.

Match advice to the rule that changes
| Mode family | Main difference | Build consequence |
|---|---|---|
| Core dungeon | Random rooms, shops, bosses | Balance control, survival and boss damage. |
| Anguish/difficulty | Higher pressure and modifiers | Consistency matters more than a perfect ceiling. |
| Rift | Special encounters and progression rewards | Prepare sustained single-target output and mode mechanics. |
| Battlefield/Auto Chess | Alternative combat or roster rules | Normal hero-combo advice may not transfer. |
| Timed event/challenge | Fixed hero, scene, timer or exchange | Optimize the stated objective before the event ends. |
Scenes
Random layout does not remove preparation
Official descriptions emphasize randomly generated dungeons, hidden rooms and shops. A map query therefore needs a scene and version, not a promise that every run follows one fixed room sequence. Learn hazard cues and preserve resources for a boss instead of memorizing one seed.
Version 3.4.0's Trial of the Farshore uses daily fixed heroes, scenes and Anguish with speedrun rewards. That is a clear example of why a current event page cannot become a permanent walkthrough. Archive the rule with its date and keep the general mode page stable.

FAQ
Common questions
What is Anguish?
It is a difficulty layer whose current levels and modifiers should be read in the selected mode.
Are maps fixed?
The core product describes randomly generated dungeons; named scenes exist, but room order and encounters are not one fixed universal map.
Is Auto Chess the main game?
No. It is an alternative mode with its own rules and update history.
Does event progress stay forever?
Permanent rewards may remain, but event access and exchange windows are dated. Verify the current announcement.
