How to Start an Encounter

- Go to Explore -> Encounters in game.

- Select your desired tier.

• If the tier is cleared, you may reroll the map before starting.

• You can view detailed information about Node rewards, Encounter rules, Enemy types, and Dominators directly from the right-hand tabs on the Tier Selection Screen in-game.

- Click “Select This Encounter” to move to the Setup Screen.

- On the Setup Screen, choose your Ship, Trooper, and Gears.

• You can also view your Build Stats, select Default Skills, check the Boons, or load a saved build.

- Click “Confirm Deployment”.

- Choose to start the encounter using either:

• Energy, or

• a Discount Access Key (which grants a 100% Energy discount).

Tiers

- There are unlimited tiers.

- Tiers 1 to 4 are free but do not reward Credits or Reputation

- Starting from Tier 5, encounters require Energy to enter.

- Energy costs increase every 4 tiers:

• Tiers 5 to 8 share the same cost and rewards

• Tiers 9 to 12 share the same, and so on

- Cleared Tiers can be rerolled; Uncleared Tiers cannot.

Reward Scaling

Rewards scale based on the base Energy cost before any discounts. This affects Credits, Gears, eOLT Tokens, Reputation, Prestige and Radioactive Shards.

Each point of Energy spent increases your reward bonus by 10%:

2 Energy gives +10% bonus, 3 Energy gives +20% bonus, 4 Energy gives +30% bonus and so on.

Map Layouts & Rerolling

- Each Tier has its own saved layout.

• Rerolling a Tier saves that layout for that Tier only.

• Switching to another Tier loads a separate layout.

- Standard Reroll: Costs Normal Access Keys equal to the tier’s Energy cost.

- Lucky Reroll: Costs 400 Normal Access Keys and guarantees at least 1 Gene node in the layout.

- Free reroll (after completing an encounter):

• Cannot roll Gene nodes or eOLT nodes

• Always generates a 3 × 3 layout

• Has a lower chance to roll Credit nodes

- Minimum rerolled map size: 3 × 3

- Maximum rerolled map size: 6 x 5

Cleared vs Uncleared Tiers

- Cleared Tier: Crown node defeated; can reroll map.

- Uncleared Tier: Crown node not yet defeated.

• No Credit nodes

• Fixed map layout (cannot be rerolled)

• Discount Access Key cannot be used
