1. **Monster Floors**:
   - On each floor, you will encounter waves of monsters such as **Suspicious Creatures** and other enemies.

   - When speaking to the Reckless Explorer inside the instance (1@infi, 42, 8), you will have the option to proceed normally or choose the harder challenge.
   - Choosing hard mode increases the difficulty and the number of rewards, including a higher chance of rare items.

2. **Exit the Instance**:

===== Tips =====
  * **Team Coordination**: Make sure your party stays together to efficiently clear each floor.
  * **Healing Items**: Bring plenty of healing items, as the fights can be tough, especially in hard mode.
  * **Cooldown**: There is a cooldown period after completing the instance before you can re-enter.
  * **Poring Summon Chance**: In hard mode, there is a chance of summoning a rare **Poring** mob that drops additional loot.
