Each difficulty level increases rewards but requires stronger champions and better team synergy.

Campaign Mechanics

  • Waves contain a mix of champion enemies and mobs.

  • You gain experience, silver, and artifacts upon completion.

  • Higher difficulties grant better rewards but cost more energy.

Efficient Campaign Farming

  • Farm Brutal difficulty whenever possible for best loot.

  • Identify stages with high artifact drop rates and easy wave layouts.

  • Use auto-battle with well-built teams for continuous grinding.

  • Upgrade your champions and gear to speed up farming runs.

  • Pay attention to energy management; use refill potions strategically.
