             All quests are raid battles. There are no solo battles in this event.

      Unlocking Quests

      New quest difficulty levels will be unlocked after a set number of foes have been defeated.
      The total number of foes defeated will be tallied from the number discovered by all crew members. Work together with your crewmates to take down foes and unlock new quests!

             
      Certain requirements must be fulfilled to unlock new quest difficulty levels.
    • Unparalleled Foes

      Unparalleled foes will appear after enough other foes have been defeated. During the event period, unparalleled foe battles can appear up to two times a day for each player.

      Crystals will be rewarded to the discoverer of an unparalleled foe, so take them down with your crewmates to reap big rewards!

      Unparalleled foe battles can only be joined by crew members.


      Daily attempts and the ability to host an unparalleled foe quest will be reset the following day at 7:00 p.m. (JST).

             There's a chance a mighty ally might come to aid you in a battle.

         <img src="/assets_en/img/sp/banner/notice/teamforce_news_05.png" width="252">
                 
      Special Backup Requests

      Special backup can be requested during a battle. An ally might appear right after sending a backup request or after sending a request and then launching an attack. Special backup characters will strike down a foe with a single blow.

      The chances of special backup arriving will differ depending on the quest difficulty and number of turns passed.
                 
      Special Backup Characters

      For this run of the event, Halloween version characters will be chosen at random when requesting special backup instead of a crew member's star character. You'll get random presents from special backup characters too!

                 Honors from Special Backup
      You will still obtain honors based on the foe's remaining HP when special backup arrives, but honors obtained by the backup character's attack will not count toward honors rankings.
    Valiant Battles

    From this run of the event, a special raid battle that only crew members can join, called a Valiant Battle, will be added. Work together with your crew members to take down this powerful boss and get awesome loot!

    <img src="/assets_en/img/sp/banner/notice/teamforce_news_07.png" width="252">

    • Valiant Battle Requirements
                A Valiant Battle will become playable from Oct 18 at 7:00 p.m. (JST), once 400,000 total crew honors have been obtained.
      
    • Valiant Battle Loot
                Upon completing the battle, all crew members can obtain the following loot. 

      First-Time Completion Loot

                 Valiant crosses, powerful attacks that deal a large amount of damage, can be triggered via special backup in Valiant Battles. 

      <img src="/assets_en/img/sp/banner/notice/teamforce_news_08.png" width="252">

                 Triggering a Valiant Cross
      A valiant cross can trigger whenever a participant in a Valiant Battle attacks. When a valiant cross is triggered, a Halloween-costumed ally will appear to deal huge damage to the foe. Multiple valiant crosses can be triggered from a single attack.

                 Cross Lvl
      A foe's Cross lvl will increase by fulfilling special requirements in a Valiant Battle. The probability of triggering a valiant cross and the probability of a valiant cross chain will increase based on Cross lvl.

      Honors from Valiant Crosses
      Damage dealt by valiant crosses you trigger will count toward your honors, even for the honors ranking.

      Special Loot
      A large amount of the power-up item Hallosweets can be obtained in this run's Valiant Battle based on the number of times you trigger valiant crosses.

                 Hallosweets can't be obtained from valiant crosses you didn't trigger.
