Tower of Babyl is a limited-time event where your parties battle powerful foes solo on each floor to climb the tower.


Layer of Machine Foundry and Layer of Crimson Anamnesis have been added from this run of Tower of Babyl.

Quest progress, mission progress and event-exclusive parties formed during the previous run will all be carried over to this run of the event.

Event Period
    7 p.m., Dec 21–6:59 p.m., Dec 27, 2022 (JST)

    Overview
    • How to Climb
      Floors and Layers
      The tower has multiple layers, and each layer consists of multiple floors. You can go to the next floor by clearing one quest on the current floor. You can move on to the next layer by defeating the bosses of the current layer, which await you on the highest floor of the layer.

       Mastering Quests
      Loot can be obtained by clearing quests and completing missions. When all the loot from a quest has been collected, it is considered mastered. To master a layer, all quests in the layer must be mastered.

      Quest Difficulty
      Foes will become stronger with each floor you climb. Quest and mission progress will be carried over to future runs.

    • Continuing
             The continue feature allows you to resume a quest from the wave you retreated, if you retreated from wave 2 or later in your previous challenge.
      There is no limit to the number of times you can continue, but anything done in the battle, such as damage dealt and debuffs inflicted to both foes and allies, will be reset each time.


      After using the continue feature, flawless completion loot cannot be obtained, and it will not count toward mission completion requirements either.
             Use the continue feature to clear quests and make your way to the top of the tower!
      


    Battles
      Tower of Babyl battles vary from normal battles in that they require players to form multiple event-exclusive parties.

    • Parties
                 <img src="/assets_en/img/sp/banner/notice/tower_news_02.png" width="252">
             You can form up to three parties, one main party and two sub parties, to battle in this event. Each party can only have four main allies and no sub allies. 

             Main Party
      The main party is formed with MC and three characters.


             Sub Party
      Sub parties are formed with four characters each.
             All three parties will share the same equipment and summons.

      Only one version of characters with multiple versions can be used between all parties.
    • Switching Battle Members
                 <img src="/assets_en/img/sp/banner/notice/tower_news_03.png" width="252">
             The main party will be the first party to battle in a quest. Sub parties will start each battle quest as reserve parties and fight in battle when the main party is knocked out, or when you switch battle members. Tap the Switch Party button to switch out party members.

      Once you switch battle members, they cannot be switched again for three turns, so choose the timing to change them wisely.
    • Battle Tips
             Battles will start with the pre-formed parties mentioned above. The following battle tips will help you use your battle members to their full potential.

      Timing Member Switches
      It is important to switch battle members based on foes' skills and the current tactical situation. For example, switching to a party that can defend well against foes' attacks, or to members that can use debuffs to stop foes in their tracks, can be the difference between winning or losing a battle.

      Utilizing Support Skills
      Support skills that activate while a character is a sub ally take effect when the character is in a reserve party. Characters in reserve parties can act as support from the sidelines while a different party battles foes head-on.
    Loot
      The following types of loot can be obtained in this event.
