Optimization Planning

THIS IS A WORK IN PROGRESS!

Mechanics

⁠

The Roles

When starting Species War, you get 3 roles to choose from: Vanguard, Prospector, and Laborer

Vanguard gives extra casualty reduction and extra chances to fight

Prospector gives extra drills for digging down and uncovering special tiles

Laborer gives a 10% resource collection boost in mines, but no extra drills or tokens

At the moment, Laborer is not worth getting at the moment because of the lack of buffs compared to other roles.

It is recommended players with stronger minion power to choose Vanguard (Typically your club’s top 25), while other players should choose Prospector.

⁠

The Map

So how it works is that all members of your club have access to the tiles which can contain enemies or drill sections. You can challenge these enemies or drill out resources depending on your role.

⁠

Resources

Your goal in the Species War is to obtain as many points as possible to keep your club ahead in the rankings.

Each day, members can receive resources according to the kits they chose.

Remains

The number on each tile marks the number of Drill Bits you need to break it.

Whenever you drill through a tile, you will randomly receive a subtype of Remains Material: α, β, γ. When you have 1 unit of each subtype, they convert to 1 unit of Remains Material, which can be used to advance your Biozilla. When you do not have enough Drill Bits, you may buy them with W-tads.

⁠

Hormones

There are various enemies in the map that drop Hormone Material when you challenge them.

Each attack consumes one Silver Token. When you defeat them, you will receive extra 80 Star Coins and Hormone Material.

Again, there are three subtypes of Hormone Material: α, β, and γ. One of each type converts to one full Hormone Material. Members could look up what type of enemy their Club currently needs to optimize gains.

⁠

Fossils

Each zone has 9 Gathering Sites that generate Fossils.

There are α, β, γ subtypes of Fossils. And of course, one of each subtype converts into one full Fossil Material.

That’s why members should always have minions stationed at Gathering Sites.

You should know that minions of higher tiers are needed at Gathering Sites of higher tiers.

While members could gather at higher tiered sites for more points, your Biozilla may need lower tiered resources.

In short, Clubs should allocate resources and time to get the most points.

⁠

Bosses

Each zone has a boss. Players need a Gold Token to challenge bosses. Regardless of your casualties, challenging bosses gives you 100 Star coins and one subtype of random Fossil Material. The maximum damage a player can do to a boss in a single fight is 1/3 of their HP.

We recommend members with higher minion power to save their Gold Tokens for bosses further down the map. In other words, players with lower minion power should ideally take care of the bosses of the first few zones.

Note that after the 4th zone, bosses start dropping Embryos, which allows Clubs to skip the need to collect materials altogether.

For example, if you can beat the boss in the 12th zone, you can get Tier 5 Biozilla without needing to collect the Fossils, Hormones, and Remains! For T4, it’ll be the 10th zone.

⁠

Incidents

Common Incidents reset every time Species War begins, and these are open to all club members to participate in.On the other hand, Solo Incidents can only be finished one time in on one account. It might take a while before a player can finish a Solo Incident!

Battling in Species Wars

Much like in Domain battles, players battle with their Minions in Species War. You can see your total Minion Power and expected casualty rate before you start a battle. There’s a couple of ways to increase Minion Power.

Tiers

Every other zone has their tier increase by 1.

T1: 1 + 2

T2: 3 + 4

T3: 5 + 6

T4: 7 + 8

T5: 9 + 10

This also applies to Biozilla Tiers!

For instance, when you break into T5 zones, you can get T3 Biozilla for free!

Biozilla Buffs

Biozillas like the one listed below will only last the week of the Active Species War.

After each Species War session, there will be 24 hours to set up your Biozilla. After you reach tier 2, you may embed one Relic in your Biozilla.

Each increased tier gives you another slot to embed another Relic. Reach tier 6 to unlock all 5 Relic slots.

The slots are permanently unlocked, meaning that once you unlock a slot, you will be able to embed Relics regardless of your Club’s latest performance. Embed the right Relics to buff your Minions in Species War!
