Worst Moon

**Worst Moon** is a difficulty modifier in Battle Arena which can be enabled by equipping either the Invisible X Invisible Ally or the Worst Moon Gem (if you equip both of these items at once you will enable Apocalypse instead). Worst Moon can be recognized by a white moon in the top right corner of the Battle Arena screen as well as a darkening of the environment.

Unlike Casual and Hardcore difficulties, Worst Moon does not modify Monsters very much - instead, it increases difficulty by reducing the fighter's power directly.

* Damage is raised to the 0.95 power twice. Rounding down occurs after each operation
