Encounters are the heart and soul of [[Outlaw Troopers]]! By mastering them, you will:


<h2>Overview</h2>
- Earn [[Credits]], [[Gears]], [[eOLT Tokens]], [[Sacred Gene]] and [[Radioactive Shards]].
Normal Encounters are the heart and soul of Outlaw Troopers!  By mastering the normal encounter you will:<br />
- earn [[Credits]], [[Ocuriums]], [[Gears]], and [[Virtual Mechas]]<br />
- gain [[Reputation]] increasing your seasonal [[Leaderboard]] rank<br />
- complete [[A.R.C_Initiator_Quests]] giving you even more loot<br />
- fight [[Dominators]]<br />
- find [[Fragments]]<br /><br>


Click Combat Related -> Encounters, then "Normal Encounter". You are now at the Tier Selection screen, there is a LOT of important information here so let's break it down one at a time.<br />
- Gain [[Reputation]] to increase your seasonal [[Leaderboard]] rank.


<h2>Gear Score Calculation</h2>
- Complete [[A.R.C_Initiator_Quests]] for additional rewards.

At the very top you can see which planet you are on.  As you progress through the Tiers you will see the same 4 planets rotated through:  Themis, Cradea, Zolphis, and Floerian.  The planet you are fighting on is important for two reasons:<br />
- Determines what kind of enemy ships you will face<br />
- Determines which [[Fragments]] drop from the [[Dominators]]<br /><br>


You can also see the [[Gear Score]] calculation here.  As you progress to higher tiers of [[Normal Encounters]] and [[Robotic Encounters]] you are allowed to bring more gears into the encounter.  As you raise your empire level through [[Reputation]] your max gear score will also go up!  Having a balanced approach of increasing all three together will make it easier to progress through the normal encounter tiers.
- Fight dominators to find [[Fragments]].


<h2>Nodes</h2>

On the right hand side of the screen you will see multiple tabs, jam packed with information.  The important takeaways from the Nodes tab are:<br />
- Displays which nodes are possible on the level, as well as the "base" reward for each node. You will see as you play how these increase as you play through the encounter. Note you have to clear the "crown" node for the next tier to become available.<br />
- Displays the rules of the encounter.  Especially note that each node you clear will cause the next nodes difficulty by 25% and the reward by 10%.<br />


<h2>Enemy Type</h2>
- Go to Explore -> Encounters in game.
<html><img src='https://cdn.cosmicclash.io/troopers/wiki/NormalEnemyType1.jpg'/></html><br />
The "Enemy Type" tab shows you what kind of enemies you will face.  These are determined per planet.  Mouse over the various enemies to see what their abilities are. Depending what kind of gear build you pick to use in the future, you might find certain planets easier than others!<br />


<h2>Dominators</h2>
- Select your desired tier.
<html><img src='https://cdn.cosmicclash.io/troopers/wiki/NormalDominators1.jpg'/></html><br />
The "Dominators" tab gives a handy reference to all the [[Dominators]].  These are NOT planet dependent, no matter which planet you are they will be the same.  Good luck these guys are tough :)<br />


<h2>Trovers</h2>
*If the tier is cleared, you may reroll the map before starting.
<html><img src='https://cdn.cosmicclash.io/troopers/wiki/NormalTrovers1.jpg'/></html><br />
 
The "Trovers" tab gives a handy reference to all the [[Trovers]]. Starting at tier 5 you will have a chance to spawn one. On this tab you will see all the possible rewards for defeating a Trover. Good luck!<br />
*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==
