WALKTHROUGH

A Full Expedition, Day by Day

Every expedition is three in-game days. Your job is to out-level the clock and walk into the final night ready.

Day 1

  • Land and immediately scout — split the squad to clear camps and mini-bosses for runes.
  • Grab your Nightfarer's key gear and hit the first Site of Grace to level up.
  • Regroup and survive Night 1's field boss together before the storm closes in.

Day 2

  • Push bigger targets — Evergaols and field bosses give the largest power spikes.
  • Coordinate upgrades: everyone should have a leveled weapon and a couple of stat levels.
  • Clear Night 2, then plan your route toward the Nightlord arena.

Day 3 — the Nightlord

  • Spend your last runes and buy from vendors to match the Nightlord's weakness.
  • Enter the arena together; assign roles (tank aggro, ranged marks, burst).
  • Learn the pattern on attempt one, revive fast, and burst during openings to win the run.
