:japanese_castle: Ninja Tower Overview!!

Gameplay

  • The Ninja Tower Event a brand new event which is accessed via the “Quests” page.
  • It is broken up into 50 individual stages.
  • Each stage features 1,2 or 3 monster waves followed by a boss stage.
  • You CANNOT repeat or replay or rerun a completed stage.
  • Gameplay features a new tile called an “Oni Curse” (more on that below).
  • Completing 3 stages gives you a choice of one of three “Oni Blessings” which apply to all heroes in your roster for that specific event.
  • Heroes can be used on as many stages as you like, as long as they don’t get “cursed out”. Read on that in the “oni curses” section below.
  • The higher you go up the tower, the more difficult it becomes.
    • Gameplay becomes harder
    • Oni-Curses appear more frequently
    • Different Mob & Boss configurations
    • Appearance of “Deadly Chamber” effects (more below)

STAGE PREVIEW!!!

  • Like map stages, the ninja Tower offers a preview of the mobs and bosses you’ll face before selecting teams.
  • This will allow you to strategize better and select the heroes you take based on what will appear!

Flags!!

  • Ninja Tower uses its own Flag Energy Currency. Separate from World Energy etc

  • You have a limit of 10 flags
  • Flags are regenerated once per day & completely refills your flags
  • Basically, it behaves VERY simmilarly to the Tournament Energy Flags.
  • There is also a new “flask” which has been added called the “Tower Energy Flask”. It is as yet unclear how this will be available / where you get it as loot.

Oni Curses

  • Oni Curses are a new tile that randomly appears on the Board.
  • On appearance, the Oni Curse is allocated to one of your 5 heroes
  • You then have 3 turns to remove the curse. If you fail, that hero recieves 1x curse.
  • Heroes who are cursed 2 times throughout the event are no longer usable in the event (still able to be used elsewhere).
  • If you FLEE with an Oni Curse (either with the countdown still on it or timed out) on a hero, it sticks (i.e. that hero is cursed).

Oni Blessings

  • Rewarded on completing every third stage
  • Blessings are fixed & are the same for everyone (i.e. player A gets x,y&z blessing at stage 3. So does player B, Player C etc
)
  • Blessings apply to ALL heroes in your roster for that specific event.
    • They do NOT apply outside the Ninja Event

Deadly Chamber Effects.

  • There are three Deadly Chamber Effects in the Ninja Tower:
    • Toxic Vapour - All heroes take ‘x’ damage every ‘y’ turns
    • Fragile Floor - The number of battle items you take are reduced by ‘x’. Cannot be less than 1
    • Erratic Time - All Status Effect Durations are reduced by ‘x’ turns.
  • Table below has more details of the deadly chamber effects & how they increase in severity though the Tower Event.
Stage Range Toxic Vapor Fragile Floor Erratic Time
1 - 5 - - -
6 - 10 50 damage per 3 turns - -
11 - 15 " 1x less of each item -
16 - 20 " " Effects 1 turn shorter
21 - 25 75 damage per 3 turns " "
26 - 30 " 2x less of each item "
31 - 35 " " Effects 2 turns shorter
35 - 40 100 damage per 3 turns " "
41 - 50 " " Effects 3 turns shorter
Note: " means as above

Beta Testers Guides to the Ninja Tower Event

Some helpful guides to completing and playing through the Ninja Tower have been written by some prominent Beta Testers which I am sharing here now :slight_smile:

Tower Coin

A new coin currancy added to the game. Used exclusively to summon in the Ninja Portal.

In Game Tool-Tip:

Used for a free summon at the Ninja Summon. You need 100 coins for one summon.
This Item can be received as a reward from the Ninja Tower

Thus far there are only two sources of these Ninja Coins:

  1. as completion rewards for each individual stage of the ninja tower. Each stage will grant 1-3 ninja coins (depending on progres).
  2. End placement rewards.
  3. And I guess offers but that’s an obvious one.

You wrote about completed stages. But if stage is uncompleted (defeated), is reruns allowed?

And 2nd - how to get a ninja coins for free? (Like chests in challenge events)?

2 Likes
  1. yes you can reattempt a failed stage
 As i wrote, you can only not replay completed stages.

  2. Per the OP you can get Ninja Coins for free:

    • Completing stages in the tower. Each stage completion reward grants 1-3 ninja coins (depending on progress)
    • End result rewards. I listed these in the Beta Beat thread so you can check them out there.

They said no replays initially, this is not fair, again with rebuys like in poker.

Well specifically the announcement about the Ninja Event says this:

In my head, if you FAIL a stage, you haven’t fully played it
 thus can reattempt it & when completing it have played that level (in full) only once.

So, fleeing a stage if you fear that your MVH (most valued hero) is about to be cursed out of the event is viable option, but only if you are willing to buy a refill?

Or do the curses persist between stages?

Thank you for your reply.
Then, I cannot complete the whole tower because of not enough Ninja energy. Do they sell Ninja energy flask in the shop??

no , if a hero is targeted and you flee, the curse remains

5 Likes

refills would probably be sold in the shop

Ok, still, fleeing might be an option (before being cursed)?

They were not available in Beta. Originally yes but removed from second round of testing with a note from Devs to say as much (removed refills from shop).

They have added the “small towerr energy flask” which fills 5x Tower Energy.

It’s not clear how this will be obtained tho.


I expect (based on convos elsewhere) that if you “run out of energy” due to repeats or not using sufficient per day, then that’s that. That’s as far as you complete this time round.

if a hero is already targeted, fleeing won’t lift the curse
