Event Info

In Defender Quests, you will face a number of grueling challenges that will test your might and mettle!

There are thee tiers of difficulty. Each tier contains ten stages.

Stages must be completed in succession--clear one stage to unlock the next.

Complete all of the stages in a given tier and you will unlock the next difficult level.

Complete all three difficult levels to unlock Endless Mode!

Each stage offers two types of reward: Mission Rewards and Treasure Chest Rewards.

Successfully defend the Treasure Chest to receive its contents after completing the stage.

Mission Rewards will become available only after you have completed all three objectives (missions) listed in a stage.

Higher difficulties will offer greater rewards!

Are you up for the challenge?

You can only receive Mission Rewards for each stage once!
These rewards will be sent to your inbox.

[Expand] Combat in the Defender Quests Event
Combat in the Defender Quests event is based entirely on your own units. Each map will contain ARFs--or Arcane Repulsor Fields--that will limit the type of unit you can deploy on that square. (e.g. Melee ARFs will only allow you to deploy Melee units on their squares.) Each map also contains a Base. If a base's durability reaches 0, the quest will end in failure. Be warned! Some monsters--known as Hybrids--are immune to a number of player skills! Hybrids can be recognized by the off-color. Experiment to uncover their weaknesses, or use a bonus unit to bypass their protection!

[Expand] Treasure Chest Rewards
Each map also contains a Treasure Chest. Monsters will attack this chest, destroying it if its durability reaches 0. If, after completing a stage, the Treasure Chest is still intact with at least one durability, you will receive its contents as a reward. The following items are a typical example of what you may receive from a Treasure Chest Reward: Time Elixir(P) Ally Pts Soul Stone(S) Wake Stone(S) 4★ Plus Ticket Anu, Goddess of the Sword Earth Stone * This list may be updated at any time!

[Expand] Mission Rewards
Each stage contains three missions. Complete the objectives for all of these missions to receive that stage's Mission Rewards. You can only receive Mission Rewards for each stage once! Here is a list of rewards typically offered as Mission Rewards: Time Elixir(P) Aurora Essence Celestial Orb Star Coin Zhang_Jiao, (11★) Aeroma, Goddess of Ascension (11★)

[Expand] Endless Mode
Complete the Easy, Normal, and Hard difficulties to unlock Endless Mode. Endless Mode, like the other difficulties, also contain Mission and Treasure Chest rewards. You may complete these stages as often as you like. The further you progress in Endless, the stronger your enemies will become. How long will you last, I wonder? Tap Endless Ranked to view the hardiest, grittiest warriors participating in the event! Rank-based rewards will not be distributed for Endless.
