How to Play

Master the idle strategy loop — formation, fusion, and enchantment.

How to Play Portal Keeper

Automated turn-based strategy — build teams, not reflexes.

Steps

  1. Deploy your team before each portal engagement.
  2. Watch automated combat resolve.
  3. Note which skills trigger and which enemies survive.
  4. Upgrade the bottleneck — frontline, DPS, or support.

Tips

  • This is NOT an action RPG — no manual attacks.
  • Depth comes from roster construction and synergies.

How to Play with a Core Six Team

Two frontline, two carries, one support, one flex.

Steps

  1. Identify your frontline, carry, and support from early units.
  2. Invest fusion and enchants only in these six slots.
  3. Swap the flex specialist per portal biome.
  4. Do not spread resources across bench units.

Tips

  • Core six discipline is the single biggest progression accelerator.
  • Rare units outside your framework can wait.

How to Play with Formation Logic

Position affects skill triggers and damage flow.

Steps

  1. Read each unit's skill tags and range.
  2. Place frontline units to absorb first contact.
  3. Position supports where buffs reach the most carries.
  4. Test formations against failing waves — move one slot at a time.

Tips

  • Formation matters as much as unit rarity.
  • Automated combat exposes positioning mistakes quickly.

How to Play the Fusion System

Combine duplicates into higher-tier units.

Steps

  1. Collect duplicate units from portal milestones.
  2. Unlock the fusion menu through progression.
  3. Fuse lower-tier duplicates into higher-tier versions.
  4. Prioritize fusions for your core six roster.

Tips

  • Do not hoard every common past your first core team.
  • Key fusions like King Sprout and Pazaru define mid-game.

How to Play the Enchant System

Convert surplus gear into power spikes.

Steps

  1. Enchant weapons on units you plan to keep.
  2. Prioritize effects that change wave math: AoE, shield break, attack speed.
  3. Keep one enchant line per element or tag.
  4. Re-evaluate after patches — enchants get nerfed.

Tips

  • Dual Strike on healing wands doubles revive value.
  • Verify enchant recipes in-game.

How to Play Royal Decree

Disable unwanted skills on key units.

Steps

  1. Obtain Royal Decree from Brimstone or Seal Shop.
  2. Open a unit's skill configuration.
  3. Disable all damage skills on healers like Nightmare.
  4. Enable only healing and buff skills.

Tips

  • Essential for Nightmare instant-revive builds.
  • Also used on buffers to prevent wasted casts.

How to Play Mind Shard and Personality

Tune unit behavior with personalities.

Steps

  1. Obtain Mind Shards from shops and milestones.
  2. Apply personalities: Saint for healers, Greedy for DPS spam, Noble for tanks.
  3. Match personality to unit role in your build.
  4. Test in combat — personalities change skill priority.

Tips

  • Saint on Nightmare maximizes healing frequency.
  • Greedy on Sherm enables Mighty Whirlwind spam.

How to Play the Scout System

Scout units and Trial Bell challenges.

Steps

  1. Progress to unlock scout mechanics.
  2. Send scout units to discover new allies.
  3. Complete Trial Bell challenges in Hall of Time.
  4. Use Rainbow Crystal speed buffs to accelerate scouting.

Tips

  • Scouting is a long-term roster expansion path.
  • Trial Bells tie into Boss Rush rewards.

How to Play the Daily Loop

Efficient session routine for steady progress.

Steps

  1. Clear portals you can auto-win.
  2. Fuse duplicates for core six units.
  3. Enchant one priority weapon.
  4. Push one new wave before logging off.

Tips

  • Consistency beats marathon sessions.
  • Track which specialists solved which biomes.

How to Play AFK and Idle Grinding

Maximize passive material gains.

Steps

  1. Purchase Rainbow Crystals from Seal Shop.
  2. Activate +60% speed buff.
  3. Set up auto-win portal waves.
  4. Let the game farm materials, scouting, and dust overnight.

Tips

  • Combine with Umbral Trust in Void for portal speed.
  • AFK grinding is a core design pillar — use it.

How to Play Synergy Chains

Link buffs, debuffs, and skill frequency.

Steps

  1. Identify tag chains: curse + execute, buff duration + skill frequency.
  2. Pair AoE carries with cadence supports.
  3. Add shield break before single-target boss carries.
  4. Swap specialists when a chain does not match the biome.

Tips

  • Synergy beats single high-rarity units.
  • Sage-led rosters excel at chain builds.
