Strategy & Tips

Expeditions are won in the first two days. Get strong fast, cover the map, and walk into night three overprepared.

Squad strategy

🛡️ Cover the roles

A durable front-liner (Guardian), a marker/ranged (Ironeye) and a bruiser (Raider/Wylder) covers most Nightlords.

🌀 Match the damage type

Many Nightlords are weak to Lightning, Fire or Holy — bring weapons and affinities that match the boss you're hunting.

🗺️ Split then regroup

Spread out on day one to clear more of the map for runes and gear, then converge before each night falls.

⚔️ Chase power spikes

Field bosses and Evergaols give the biggest gear jumps — prioritise them over trash mobs.

Enter the final night fully levelled and with your weapon upgraded — under-levelling loses runs.
Save flasks, revives and your Ultimate for the Nightlord, not the mobs before it.
Learn the Nightlord's pattern on the first attempt; most have a clear tell to punish.
Never fight the boss while the Night's Tide is still closing in — clear it first.
Revive downed teammates immediately by attacking them; a full squad wins, a solo rarely does.
