I imagine someone will ask...so I will point towards this (datapad):
It will slowly deplete your life force, in fact it grows with the amount of life force it leeches from you, as it grows it requires more, eventually it will leech more life force than you can recover naturally.
Sierena eats exponentially, once you know you have it, you better kill it asap.

I think we are doing pretty good, we need to make sure we are hitting them every chance we get.

Anyone got any idea besides blitz siphon for gaining LF

Need to stop killing the low level hosts (since they are easier to siphon life force from) and concentrate on weakening the higher level hosts.

Note taken: Is there a way to siphon off more then what im getting. When I siphon i only get like 30 mil?

The higher your Blitz Siphon level, the more potential Life Force you can take. It also depends how many turns you spend per attack, I think the cap is 9% of the targets reserves. Your unlikely to get that on the remaining Hosts though :P

I have noticed that I have been infected, my LF does drain a little each turn change.

What's the best course of action, I can continue to hit the infected, is there anything else I shall be doing, I have already changed y label to show I'm infected

@clock, 15% of current reserves.

@strat, this is where the fun begins. You purge. You lose everything so you need someone online to send you a fair bit of LF (after), if you don't get that chunk of LF and your purge wasn't successful, you will die. Increase purge level to have a better chance.

Does the amount of LF thats taken per turn become greater the longer i am infected?

For reference;
I have always been asked to throw out arenas more often due to the achievements and such, but for new ones, such as plague, I obviously like to stick around when I start them. Anyway, point is this one is getting to the stage where I can 'let it go' without watching over it, so assuming nothing drastically bad happens until the end, I'll probably freestyle the next one and start to crank them up every 1-2 weeks.

Preferably I wish to do a plague, save a few things I need to tweak right now, it seems to be more fair than others, although if many people want a different one I will change it. Players that stay alive the longest for plague will get the 'win' for achievement. I'll probably clamp down on the length it takes to finish (i.e make them more faster).
