March of the Tortodrones is an event-exclusive prestige mission available during March of the Tortodrones.
Overview
Description:
Pieces of fallen Tortodrones and clusters of Dark Matter have been showing up in the Clockworks, leading Spiral HQ to believe that the Fiends are somehow linked to the disappearance of those once-mythical beings. In order to discover what the Fiends are up to, you will need to find a way to unlock one of their Grim Gates and travel through it. Spiral HQ suspects that the glyphs that the Fiends carry with them might be the keys to opening the gate yourself.
Objective:
Investigate the Ancient Grove and put a stop to a Fiendish plot.
Notes

Reason(s): could use some polish |
In general, shadow and shock resistant gear with a high amount of normal will suffice. The tortodrones utilize a variety of attacks that deal different types of damage, and none of them are shadow. But the plethora of fiends all deal normal and shadow damage.
Defenses:
- Sacred Falcon Hex Helm (considering fiends - elemental/normal/piercing UVs ideal)
- Sacred Falcon Hex Armor (considering fiends - elemental/normal/piercing UVs ideal)
- Crest of Almire (considering fiends and AoE shocks, elemental/normal/piercing UVs ideal)
