Problem definition

Concurrent growth, mission, ad, event and guild tasks delay return to the main stage.

View all bottlenecks

Design direction

Reduce duplicate trips and checks along existing task-claim, reinvestment and main-stage return routes, connecting return readiness and actions.

Selected designs and judgment conditions

Selected principles and the game-local design6 design records

These entries describe the selected design. Design selection is distinct from actual application and effect validation. The classified objects below retain their own roles and connections.

Goals and residual processing

Initial IFR · goal direction

Realign sequence, routing and exposure to recover volition and value.

Final IFR · design goal

Reduce duplicate round trips and repeated checks, bringing return readiness and the Main Stage return action forward.

Compounding Growth

Auto-clear main stages → claim idle rewards → summon, upgrade, and form heroes → run dungeons, arenas, or guild activities → return to main stages.

Outputs strengthen assets, capabilities, or access and open a stronger next cycle.

Bottlenecks

Bottleneck Patterns

Where do decisions and flow break?

6 analysis items · Read the method

Core classification and definition · Pressure and Concentration Bottleneck

Pressure and Concentration Bottleneck

The affected flow runs through claim → spend; its limiting point is the operations pressure handoff.

Difficulty, randomness, growth, or completion pressure accumulates at one decision point and concentrates the burden of retrying or reinvesting.
