[Expand]  Boss Units and Combat

In Winter of the Heart, you'll assemble a team of 4 units and 4 monsters to do battle with would-be poachers intent on harming your recruit. While there is a cost cap for your units, there are no limitations on which monsters you can use. In boss fights, your maximum hit points will vary depending on which monsters you have set in your team. Specifically, the size, level, and rarity of your monsters will all affect your maximum hit points. Press the Auto Build button and you will automatically form two teams using your highest level monsters and units. There will also be times when your Allies' recruit will appear mid-battle to help out. This maiden's strength will depend largely on the strength of your monster team. Fighting boss units will incur a cooldown. You can use a Time Elixir at any time to instantly reset this cooldown. Tap a boss unit to view how much cooldown is remaining on that unit. Boss units you encounter in Training will gradually advance on your recruit. If they reach your recruit, the boss unit will disappear and you will lose BT Pts. You can tap boss units to check how much time it will take for them to reach your recruit. Defeat the boss to earn BT Pts and EVENT ITEMs. BT Pts will affect your ranking and EVENT ITEM are used to grow your recruit. The first person who initiates a fight with a given boss (i.e. the person who found the boss), will also receive a Discovery Bonus when the boss is defeated. The person who inflicts the most damage during the boss fight will receive a MVP Bonus after the boss has been defeated. Arena / Player skills will not activate during Boss Unit battles. You cannot battle a boss unit that has already reached your maiden. Be careful when using Time Elixirs to reengage bosses during cooldown. You may find that the boss has already been defeated by another player.**

[Expand]  Special Units

Special units will offer certain bonuses when used in the Now Hiring event! Special units deployed in boss unit battles will enjoy increased attack power. Furthermore, including special units in your monster / unit teams will also increase your chances of meeting the rare boss units the Exceptional 8 and the Flight School. Rare boss units offer more attractive rewards than your standard boss units. The amount of the increase depends on the rarity of the unit - the higher the rarity, the larger the increase. Only the rarest special unit and rarest special monster (for a total of two special units) will affect your chances of meeting the Exceptional 8 and the Flight School. Here are your special units: Step Up Packs 49 Arrythmia (9★)

[Expand]  Group Battles

If you fail to defeat a boss unit the first time you engage them, you can invite your allies to participate in a Group Battle. You can hit the Request Help! button by tapping the Group Battle on any boss that you've failed to defeat. Your request will be sent to a random selection of allies. You can only tap the Request Help! button once for each boss. If you have bosses present on the Check Battles screen, you may see a red ! mark appear on the Edit / Fight button. Here you can check if you have any requests for help from your allies. Any boss monsters your allies have discovered will appear in purple. Tap Join Fight to participate in the Group Battle. Once a boss has been defeated in this fashion, you can tap the Receive Reward button to receive the spoils of your fight. You can only have up to a total of 10 boss units active on your Check Battles screen at a single time. If you have already reached 10 active boss units, you will no longer receive requests for help from your allies, nor will you encounter any other allies in training. This includes bosses who have been defeated, but still have rewards left unclaimed. Be careful when using Time Elixirs to reengage bosses during cooldown. You may find that the boss has already been defeated by another player.** You will not lose any BT Pts for enemies reaching your allies' hatchlings.

[Expand]  Snow Blossoms

Snow Blossoms are a special, event-exclusive item that you can use to nurture your recruit into a more powerful beast! You can get Snow Blossoms by defeating boss units. You nurture recruits primarily by feeding them scrumptious, vitamin-packed goods like Luna, items, or unit cards. While you can substitute Snow Blossoms for these items, please keep in mind that you will need Snow Blossoms to give your recruit the final push it needs to change forms. You can also get Snow Blossoms as a Discovery / MVP Bonus. Snow Blossoms will not be used in any future events and may even be reset after the event has concluded.

[Expand]  Nuturing Your Recruit

Tap your recruit to gain access to the EVO area of the event. Here you will feed your recruit Luna, items, and cards to nurture them into a more advanced form. Tap on the Luna, Item, Card icons to convert those items to EVO Pts. As you gain EVO Pts, a bar will fill up above your recruit indicating your current EVO progress. Only after you have fully filled the bar will you be ready to able to take the final preparations to evolve your recruit into its next form. Once the EVO Progress gauge has been filled, you will need to feed your recruit a number of Pro Apples to EVO her to her next form. If you do not have enough Snow Blossoms, you will not be able to EVO your recruit. Snow Blossoms CANNOT be used at this stage of development. Once you have evolved a recruit in this fashion, you can press the Receive Reward button to stop the EVO process and receive your recruit. After receiving a recruit, you will be granted a new recruit to raise again from scratch. Any excess EVO Pts gained when EVOing your recruit will be discarded. Once you have received a recruit, your new recruit will arrive in its default, starting state. You will need to evolve your recruit again for it to change. Mina will grant fewer EVO Pts than other 6★s when fed to your recruit. The number of EVO Pts and Snow Blossoms need to evo your recruit will increase incrementally starting with your second maiden. You can tap the Get Reward button after the event has finished, but you won't be able to feed or evo it any more than its current state.
