Normal Encounters

Normal Encounters

Normal Encounters are one of the two types of Encounters available in Outlaw Troopers.

Entering a Normal Encounter

Players can enter Normal Encounters only after they have completed the in-game tutorial. Click on the "Encounter" button on the top of the screen to open up the encounter UI, next, select Normal Encounters.

Encounter Rules

Ships (either virtual or NFTs) and Troopers, preferably ones with Tactician and Power slots, are required to enter a normal encounter. You can only equip Tactician Gears and Power Gears before you enter an encounter. Once you've entered an encounter, you can no longer change your Gears

Amount of Gears you can equip is decided by your Gear Score Limit. You can increase your Gear Score Limit by upgrading them using Artifacts

Encounters will end when you defeat the final boss or when you're defeated by an enemy. You will still keep all rewards you have won up until this point should you have been defeated.

Clear the boss node to unlock next tier.

Tiers

Tiers are also known as Levels. There are unlimited tiers. First 4 tiers of Normal Encounters are free of charge, but they do not give you any Credits or Reputation.

After the forth tier, you'll require a Normal Access Key + FGL Token in order to start an encounter.

Normal Access Key cost, regardless of its amount, can be replaced by a single Discount Access Key.

Entry fees scale according to tiers, higher tiers require more keys and token to enter.

Key cost is capped at 10 Keys. Where as FGL Token cost is capped at 300 FGL.
