The short version

  • 48 hours, individual, server-wide. 16 rounds: 8 a day, every 3 hours from reset, 20 minutes each.
  • Go all-in on damage. Enemy counterattacks are weak and don't scale, so defence is useless here.
  • Fight alone. Being in a crowd costs about 7% of your damage.
  • Kill at least 5 ships in one round to get the daily rewards.
  • The leaderboard is for show: no extra rewards for ranking.
  • Rewards: Cocoon fragments and Component Modules.

How a round works

  • Each round is 10 waves of a single Calamity Ship, with 10 seconds between waves.
  • Each ship has more HP than the last. Wave 10 has almost 10 billion HP and isn't meant to die: just keep hitting it until the round ends.

Fleet setup

  • Full damage. Ignore defensive stats and abilities.
  • Swap out utility and defensive champions (Klara, Doug, Ajita…) for pure damage dealers, even Epic ones. An Epic damage dealer outscores a well-built Legendary tank here.
  • See Combat basics for how ATK and INT turn into damage.

Where to fight

  • Calamity portals appear in every level 4, 6, 7 and 9 system (9 locations). Look for the red/pink portal icon on the galaxy map.
  • Find a spot to yourself, usually in lower-level systems.
  • Stay in one place. Damage is tracked per location; fighting in several systems at once doesn't add up.
