===Encounter Buff===
Check the Encounter Buff calculation here. As you increase your Empire Level by gaining [[Reputation]], progressing through higher [[Normal Encounters]] Tiers, and exploring [[The Abyss]], grants increased buffs. These buffs increase your [[Gear Score Limit]], allowing you to equip more and better Gears, while also providing extra [[Armor]], [[Shield]], and All Damage bonuses in Normal Encounters. Balancing these factors will help your progression through the Tiers.

- Which Fragments drop from the Dominators

Cost of Entry

Tiers 1 to 4 are free to enter, but they do not grant any Credits or Reputation. After the fourth tier, you'll need Normal Access Keys or a Discount Access Key, along with Energy, to start an Encounter.

Higher tiers require more Normal Access Keys and Energy to enter.

Map Reroll

Note that Gene Nodes always grant 1 Gene, unaffected by reward multipliers.

You must clear the Crown Node to unlock the next Tier.

Enemy Type
