A1. Do I lose bug/apples/skill when I evolve a unit?
  • No. When going from 5* to 6* the unit keeps apple stats, skill stats and bug level. It’s safe.


    B1. Do I lose bug/apples/skill when feeding a unit?
  • Yes. You feed a unit to another, it’s gone. The exception is if you feed the same unit to itself. Then it merges its bug. 10 Bug Mobius fed to 10 bug mobius = 20 bug mobius.


    C1. What are quest gimmicks and how do I deal with them?
    There are four types of panel gimmicks and five types of unit gimmicks.
    • Obstruction/Junk panels - Block panels that drop and take up space which can’t be removed by normal clicking. You either need a unit that has the ability to destroy them, use FEVER to reset the board, or use a unit that has a skill to change it into something else. Please note, not all skills can do this.

    • Protected Panels - The panels get surrounded by a bubble which absorbs one click, or “hit” from an explosion. Some units can hit through this bubble regardless if they have the ability protect break. Other methods are to use large amounts of explosions to forcefully break the protection bubble, absorb the panels with some skill, or through Fever like for junk panels.

    • Damage Panels - They appear like spiked panels and clicking them will cause them to explode and deal damage to the player's health bar, dealt at the end of that turn. Is it possible to go into negative health as long as you heal in that same turn so your life is positive by the end. Units with Damage Panel Break can click these without taking damage.

    • Timed Panel - Panels that have a count down timer to exploding doing damage to the players health. These cannot be clicked by themselves. You must link them with another pannel of the same color, FEVER or explode them using cskills. Certain units, like DRTH and Troy, have active Skills that can convert Timed Panels into helpful panels as well.

      Some skills, such as possessed by Fourier, Trident and Azazel, can convert any panel.

    • Virus - The affected unit with Virus takes damage each turn until the virus wears off, which can be trivial damage or grave one depending on the quest. Some units can cleanse this virus using their skill, while others are immune to virus due to their ability.Cleansing the virus is usually enough but some end game quests need all units to be immune to it like Lu Bu’s ultimate quest.

    • Counter - Hitting the enemy while counter is active causes them to hit you back once your attack is done. Some units can disable this on the enemy boss, such as Yatagarasu. If the counter’s damage is not too high it can be ignored, but in cases like Musashi where it deals significant damage, the ideal method is to either wait it out by skipping turn, or healing if you do not have the means to break it.

    • Attack / Resilience lowering - Some bosses will lower the attack or resilience of the player’s units. This usually can be waited out, however in some cases the boss might start hitting harder, or have a timer which makes getting rid of these stat reductions crucial. Using a cskill or a skill that increases either of these stats cancels it out.

    • Tap Reduction - Bosses can reduce the amount of taps you get. Use a unit that can either increase your taps, or remove this debuff.

    • Darkness - Turns the screen black and you cannot see panel links, however you can swipe across panels to see the colour. Some unit’s can cleanse this, or are immune to it while they are leading.

    • Heart/Panel Lock - These Panels will drop normally, but look darkened, and no effect will happen when you chain them. They can still be used to create C Panels. This includes during FEVER! Most enemies using this gimmick lock 1-3 types of panels at a time, although Heart Lock Panels is especially dangerous, since you will not be able to heal normally during this time.

    • Increased C Panel chain - Some Events force players to use an increased number of Panels in chain to create C Panels, OR, an enemy may use an ability which increases the number by 2 or more for a specific amount of turns. If it is an enemy ability, the debuff icon will appear, and you can counter it by using a unit with a skill that increases taps.



    D1. What are Fes/Festival Units?
  • Festival units are considered the top tier of units in their respective element usually gained through a Festival Gacha/Festival Banner. The ones that can be obtained during a festival gatcha are advertised, but be aware that they have a very low pull rate. Unlike most units, they have very strong stats and their skills let you either hard counter a gimmick, or give you board control. In most quest, if there is no cost limitation for participating, It is recommended you use them when you can, and as such build a team around them and add in other units that either complement them, or deal with quest gimmicks.


    E1. How do I defend?
  • When you are asked to defend, this means two things; either heal/skip your turn to avoid triggering one of the bosses mechanic such as counter, or prepare the field by getting rid of 1 or 2 panels that are in the way.

    The other meaning is to use a defensive skill. The two types of defensive skills; one that creates a shield around units blocking X amount of damage per hit such as Odin, or the one that creates a shield that lowers incoming damage by a certain percentage such as Freud. Some unit’s have a personal absorbtion shield, such as Garoa, Magician or Bohr, which absorb X amount of damage as well as overkill damage on the shield.



    • F1. Are ghost store units worth it?
    The two current ghost store units are Troy/Trojan for 65,000 Ghosts and Magician for 200,000 ghosts.

  • Troy
    Troy is a red unit that has 4672 attack and 2689 Resilience and 6790 health and acts as an enabler/attacker once given +99 red apples. Her power lies in her skill, which gives you a 4000 hp heal, converts Heart, Green and Timed panels to red and for one turn green panels do not appear. With a 7 turn cooldown, this is a strong skill to use in order to either heal or set the field for your attacker. Additionally, her cskill raises the attack of red units, which is perfect for attacking and getting rid of attack down debuffs. She is also immune to virus and has damage up against Unknown-type enemies, such as ducks,evolve material quests or some bosses like Shouki. Overall, Troy is a very strong unit, and also acts as a worthy 99 bug. When well used she has the power to replace Lagrange/Shroedinger during the Lucifer quest if required, which is arguably the hardest quest.

  • Magician
    Magician is yellow unit with 4829 Attack, 2109 Resilience and 6105 health and benefits the most from +99 attack apples. Her skill converts everything but heart, yellow, crash and bomb panels to green panels and gives 3 turns of attack up for yellow units while making sure blue panels do not appear. This is very good for creating a strong field for your attacker. Her cskill does damage and a portion of it is fixed, hitting through defense buffs on the boss, which makes her useful for bosses that have defense buffs up or guerilla’s ducks, however falls redundant when you have someone else attacking. She also has a 8000hp barrier which absorbs damage until it runs out that starts at the beginning of the quest. She also increases attack and resilience of herself during fever.

    Overall, she is a very strong yellow support, and runs very well with units that change green panels to Cskills, such as Hubbles or Gungnir. Only pick her up if you require a good yellow support unit.


    G1. Why does Mobius sell for 300k ghost points?
  • Mobius is a festival unit, which sells for 30,000 ghost points like other festival units. However, unlike other festival units, she was introduced with bug 10, which means she has 10 copies worth of herself, ergo, 300,000 ghost worth. This was a rare occurrence and most likely will not happen again, and is generally accepted her worth as a unit is higher than any of the available ghost units.


    H1. How can I deal with a panel appearance being reduced?
  • Like for attack and resilience debuff, applying a buff on the appearance of the panels like with Rapunzel or Lancelot’s skill will cancel the debuff,but when you do not have those units, using a skill that makes that stop the panels of this color from dropping will overwrite the previous debuff, which then cause it starts to drop at the normal rate once the skill is over. I.e. turing stops hearts dropping, which after would drop at a normal rate. This can be used in Spur’s quest during the last floor.


    I1. When do I fever?
  • Fever restores health and deals damage depending on the average amounts of panels hit. This means you either use it as a panic heal, use it to finish off an enemy or if you are confident, just to deal damage. It is common for people to FEVER then use skills such as Lancelot to wipe the board to get back FEVER meter so none is wasted, however this requires knowledge of the whole quest.For quests where you face gimmicks such as Junk or damage panel however, keeping Fever as a mean to reset the board can also be an option.


    J1. What apples to I feed to [Unit]?
  • Apples needs differ for each unit but there are some simple general rules to keep in mind. If they are a healer, they get blue healing apples. If they are going to attack, they get red apples. If they are a tank, you can either go green apples for higher health, or red apples for higher attack as they already have high health. Units such as Latica or Spur have their cskill damage go up the higher health they have, so they get green apples.

  • Once you start considering Ultra Wizards, you can start mixing up how you do things in the case of some units like healers. For example, Kafka is run with two Baldr/Baldur’s but Baldr has low health, so it’s not uncommon for people to put green apples instead of blue despite being a healer.


    K1. What Type of Gacha’s/Banners are there and should I pull them?
    There are many gacha’s that come and go during the year:
    • Normal Gacha - 50 Polygons for 1, 500 Polygons for 10. Do not pull this, it has non-limited units and generally is a waste of time.

    • Limited Gacha - 50 Polygons for 1, 500 Polygons for 10. Occasionally the first pull is 250 for 10. This usually introduces a new unit with a rate up. (This means should you pull a 6*, there is a higher chance that 6* is the new unit. This does not raise the chances of pulling a 6*). Sometimes they offer a 100% unit if you pull 50 units.

    • Festival Gacha - 50 Polygons for 1, 500 Polygons for 10. Usually advertises selected Festival units in its pool of obtainable units. This is generally the most worthwhile gacha. Sometimes they offer a 100% unit if you pull 50 units.

    • Step-up Gacha - Each time you pull, the cost goes up. As you reach higher pulls, the rate goes up. This usually caps at 500 polygons for 10 pulls with a 5x rate on pulling the selected unit. The cost of the step usually goes 30>90>250>500. Recently, JP had a step-up that went to 10x rate at step 8. Technically these are the best chances RNG wise, but also cost quite a bit.

    • Ranking Ticket Gacha - If you obtain a ranking ticket, this gacha appears selectable. Read more further down under What is Ranking? Event Free Gacha - Events may have a gacha you can pull once daily for the duration. Guaranteed Gacha - Pulling this Gacha gives a 5* or 6* unit. It usually requires pulling 50 times for the Guaranteed unit, sometimes more.

    • Event Ticket Gacha - Christmas events and Halloween events gave tickets as a drop from the quests which could be used to pull an event ticket gacha which gives apples, ducks, humpty, the event unit itself and other useful units.

    • Link/Friend Point Gacha - Available all the time, as some events special link gatcha give better items it is not recommended to be pulled, but one could try their luck to get crystal apples to level up their units skills if they feel lucky. Event Link/Friend Point Gacha - A friend point gacha that has an increased chance for ducks or apples. Appears multiple times a year, will be announced in news beforehand.



    L1. What does it mean when a unit’s ability says “when in front”?
  • The unit that is currently having it’s turn. I.e. clicking, attacking, healing.


    M1. What is bug level/ a buguma and why should I go for 99 Bug?
  • The bug level of a unit can be raised by feeding dupes of it to one copy.The higher the bug on a unit, the higher chance of bonus drops at the end of a quest. Only 6*’s can get to 99 bug, with 5*’s capping at 75 and 4* at 60. This only applies to the player’s leading unit in solo but in multiplayer the bug of each player’s unit will count, so it is better to play with 4 people so you get 4x bug bonus. It should be noted that 99 bug gives you 100% 2 extra drops. It is common to bug quest units that have gimmick counters, as you have to run them, so you might as well get extra drops while doing so. This speeds up wizard farming to a great extent, with the perfect scenario giving 11 copies of a wizard per run. As for Buguma, a term used on Japanese boards, it’s just an abbreviated form of “ Bug Max” which refer to bug 99 units.


    N1. Which units should I bug?
  • At the moment for Global, Telsa is an easy bug to acquire once she hits 6*. For 5*, you can get Hyuuga from the normal quests. Some people quite like to bug Troy using ghosts, while some prefer Amaterasu, Jeanne, Mugin or Azazeal as their quests can be quite easy with the right setup. Event units and new units are also commonly bugged, as their quest lasts 6 days when released, such as Spur.


    O1. What is ranking?
  • Not yet in Global, it is an event in JP version where the player base is split into groups and left to compete within that group. Players run a “Ranking Quest” where their efforts are given a point score, and the higher position the better rewards you get at the end. How much damage you take, how many turns you take, how much overkill damage you do all affect this score. Your highest score is compared to others at the end. Rewards for ranking range from locked quest keys, Polygons, Humpty and Ranked Tickets, used to pull high tier units. There are also titles you get if you manage the same rating bracket 3 times.


    P1. How do I get skill apples?
  • You get them as bonus from normal quests, login bonus, bug bonus rewards, friend gacha, and locked quests.


    Q1. Where do I get Little Humpty?
  • At the moment, you gain them through a rare appearance in evolve materials dailies throughout the week. It is most commonly run using 20 energy quest. During some events,they are also appearing in little humpty quest, which is a limited quest that is announced beforehand, or given as login /mission rewards.


    R1. How do I farm friend points/ link points?
  • You get 2x more friend points for doing multiplayer with friend than with randoms, so pick up 3 other friends, and run any quest over and over. Most likely the 3 energy quests. If your friends are not available, while the gain per run will be reduced it is still possible to repeat the normal quest 1-1 in public rooms get link points.


    S1. What is UA/ Ultra Awakening?
  • Ultra Awakening is an evolution not yet in global that changes a unit into a form that is more specialized. This usually gives them a counter to a gimmick, or changes how their skills work. This is usually a good change, and you can swap them back and forth, but you must pay the materials each time.This will come after more units get their 6*.


    T1. How many copies of a unit should I keep?
    • If you got the unit from a quest, keep two. One for leveling, and one as an evolution material. For example, Amaterasu is a strong unit by herself, and is also used to evolve Qilin/Kirin.
    • If you got it from a Gacha, minimum 1. You can run multiple of the same unit, and there will eventually be quests where you must take a 30 cost unit, which means keep those 5* units.



    U1. How do wizards work?
  • Wizards quests, such as Amaterasu, Frey, Jeanne are 35 stamina quests available in the event tab. They are each given a time slot on a rotating roster through the weeks. These quests, which tend to be higher difficulty than the other, can award strong units after completion that you could use to strengthen your roster or use as material to evolve Ultra Wizards units for example. Global version will receive an update for 40 stamina versions of these quests eventually.

  • Ultra Wizards are the hardest quests available in normal rotation and give units befitting their status, with the units rating in the 90’s. Ie. Oda Nobunaga, Qilin


    V1. Is there a use for units without a 6* or 6* UA?
  • Yes, some quests will be introduced that require the entire party, including support to be 30 cost or lower.


    W1. What is the Queen’s tower?
  • Queen’s tower is a re-occuring JP event where you climb the tower, and at the higher floors you are restricted to 30 cost units, and eventually 28. It gives a strong 6* unit as a reward, along with polygons for climbing it.
