Battlefield of Time

Time Attack Game Mode

After clearing Chapter 10, you unlock the Battlefield of Time, a seasonal competitive game mode where you must defeat a boss and other enemies as quickly as possible.

Seasonal Rotation

The Battlefield of Time follows a rotational challenge period that consists of a Practice Period, a Regular Period, a Calculation Period to check rankings and rewards you qualified for, and the After Calculations, period which is when you can actually claim your rewards. You automatically earn all the top Achievement Rewards if you clear a stage within 1 minute and 30 seconds.

Challenge Mode

The Battlefield of Time has its own Challenge Mode wherein you are restricted to Hunter Mode, and must continuously defeat bosses that gradually rise in level per stage, all while adhering to the Rules of the Week. Each stage has different rewards per clear condition, and your rank and rewards will be calculated by totaling your clear time per stage, with the rewards to be sent after the event period ends.

Overall Rank and Division Rank

You obtain separate rewards depending on two types of ranking. The first is your Overall Rank, which is your rank on the server, and your Division Rank, which is your ranking within your assigned set of 100 people.

Battlefield of Time

Power of Destruction

Survive Against Pitch-black Flame Ennio

After clearing Chapter 14, you unlock the Power of Destruction seasonal competitive mode, where your objective is to survive as long as possible and deal as much damage as possible in the alloted time against Pitch-black Flame Ennio. At the end of battle, you are asked whether to record your performance for ranking purposes. You can only have your performance recorded once, so try out all your optimized teams and record the one that performs the best.

Scaling Difficulty per Season

Your survival time and damage inflicted determine your record during a single season, and that record affects how much Ennio's difficulty will increase for you in the following season. The difficulty will never decrease, but as it increases, you will be able to form more teams for more chances to set records.

Teams of Hunters and Shadows

Each team that you form can be composed of Hunters and Shadows. Also, you can select a buff card that will help you fight against Pitch-black Flame Ennio.

Overall Rank and Division Rank

The Power of Destruction Mode follows the same Ranking system as Battlefield of Time, with an Overall Rank that determines rewards based on your server rank and a Division Rank that determines rewards based on rank within a 100-player division. Achievement Rewards are also still available in this game mode for fulfilling specific conditions.

Battlefield of Chaos

Wave Defense Mode

After clearing Chapter 15, you will gain access to the Battlefield of Chaos mode, a daily refresh mode where you must clear waves of enemies through a set number of battlefield zones that increase in difficulty. Each battlefield and tier has different team formation requirements and recommended elements.

Daily Refresh Gem Rewards

The main reward for this game mode is gems, which can be claimed up to three times per day. The battlefield and available rewards refresh every day.

Battlefield of Chaos
