*Disclaimer*
----------------------------
Sorry for the re-upload! After getting some sleep (I was up for over 24 hours finishing invasion mode 100% before making these videos 😵) and doing the math a bit more thoroughly, this is actually a much easier and more efficient method for grinding XP, Seasonal Kredits and Koins. The only thing that the seasonal towers have over this method are the tower completion bonuses, but you'd have to deal with much longer fights due to bosses, modifiers, higher level opponents and fighters with higher health like Nitara and Reiko. These endurance matches can be beaten very easily, very quickly and _don't get any harder_ each time you beat them, meaning that the average rewards per time spent are actually better and a lot more obtainable for players of all skill levels. Having said that, please check out the full guide details below!

*Guide & Notes*
----------------------------
You're going to want to *start off by beating the final invasion boss* in order to get your hands on the key item needed to break the special electric barrier found on each map. You'll need to get past those barriers to get your hands on the Invincible relic that I'm using, as well as access the endurance stage that I showed in the video.

After beating the final invasion boss (or even before if you prefer), *take a moment to reallocate your stat points* by purchasing a White Enenra Core from the vendor at the Wu Shi Academy map. Make sure your character has 15 points in Special and 25 points in Health because you'll need that to equip the Invincible relic. Put the rest of your stat points into Attack.

From there, immediately go back to the Tarkatan Colony mesa and find the electric barrier. Use the key item you got from the invasion boss to break the barrier, then follow the path straight to the end until you hit a stage with the "Iced Out" klue. I was able to solve this by using Sub-Zero and spamming his Ice Ball special move as much as possible, then finishing the fight with his Brain Freeze fatality (probably not required but it worked for me). Open the chest hidden behind this stage's klue barrier to *get the Invincible relic.*

As a quick note, the relic works by making all damage go to your meter instead of your health bar, and as long as you're in critical health (red flashing bar) your meter will recharge almost instantly. *This makes you pretty much invincible* and as long as no health is ever taken from your health bar, it still counts as a flawless victory if you win. This means that you'll pretty much always get the flawless victory bonus rewards at the end of a fight, which we'll be taking advantage of with the endurance stage.

*The talisman that you use for this method doesn't matter* because you should be doing enough damage with your physical attacks alone to finish off these enemies very quickly. With the Invincible relic equipped you also don't need to worry about taking any damage, so just use whatever regular kombos you're comfortable with.

*Now you can to go to the Living Forest mesa.* Follow the path I took in the video (from the portal at the end of the map, not the beginning) to find the endurance stage. You'll probably hit an electric barrier if you haven't already unlocked it, so go ahead and use the key item you got from beating the final invasion boss to unlock it and access the area with the endurance stage.

While you won't be getting any fighter or kameo Victory XP after beating the stage for the first time, you will continue to get bonus XP for flawless victories and finishing the stage with a brutality. Using this method, you can get *645 Profile XP, 350 Fighter XP, 170 Kameo XP, 400 Koins, 300 Seasonal Kredits and 150 Krowns in less than a minute* without having to worry about the stage getting harder on the next attempt. It's a much more consistent, stress-free way to grind. Thanks so much for watching!
