The Fiefdom

What is The Fiefdom?

The Fiefdom is floor 7 of 12, and its phrase is "Every department is its own fiefdom." It opens when you win Boil the Ocean with that department. Its enemies are 60 percent stronger than the first floor's. Its final boss is The Precedent, at 16:00.

Reminder!! All requests to this department must go through the proper channels!!

Which bosses are on the calendar?

Four calendar bosses book this floor: The Access Request, The Audience, The Audit, The Reorg. They arrive at 3:45, 7:30, 11:15, 15:00 in that order. The Precedent closes the quarter at 16:00, and beating it wins the floor. A calendar boss still standing at the next booking leaves without paying out.

What is the hazard, and is there a secret?

The hazard: Proper channels: an Approval Chain comes through every 55 seconds. Break it or go round. It runs for the whole quarter, so plan your route around it. This floor also hides one secret, which appears on the floor during Monday Morning. Finding it changes the run for the better.

Hint: Exceptions exist if you know who to sit near. Finding the paperwork changes how the final boss can be hurt.

Tips from the floor

• Damage only lands on the Precedent while the Anonymous Survey is alive. Your skills won't aim at it. Keep your blasts off it.
• The Approval Chain comes through on a timetable. Break it or go round.
• Red Tape comes out of the printer. Kill the printer.
