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.

Loadout Disclaimer

As always, use whatever gear you are most comfortable with, as long as it does not interfere with the strategies and success of the squad. Some gear can be significantly more expensive than others, so you should always factor in economics when considering loadout options for missions. Will the gear help with only a few specific areas, or many? Will it pay for itself quickly, if at all? There is usually more than one way to solve problems - these are what work for many players.

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:

The following consider fiend attacks and tortodrone AoE shocks. For other tortodrone attacks, elemental/normal/piercing UVs are ideal.

Offenses:

-[[File:Crafting-Fiendish ID Card.png|36px|left|link=Fiendish ID Card]] The [[Fiendish ID Card]] is required to access the fight in this event's prestige mission. It acts like a [[Shadow Key]]: one player can use one card for the entire squad, and each card can only be used once. Craft it at the [[Mysterious Alchemy Machine]]. It will be [[Binding|bound]] when crafted.
-Fiendish Glyphs ([[File:Crafting-Fiendish Amu Glyph.png|20px|link=Fiendish Amu Glyph]] Amu, [[File:Crafting-Fiendish Ur Glyph.png|20px|link=Fiendish Ur Glyph]] Ur, [[File:Crafting-Fiendish Tor Glyph.png|20px|Fiendish Tor Glyph]] Tor, [[File:Crafting-Fiendish Nok Glyph.png|20px|link=Fiendish Nok Glyph]] Nok, [[File:Crafting-Fiendish Sol Glyph.png|20px|link=Fiendish Sol Glyph]] Sol), which are materials for crafting this card, have a chance to drop from any defeated loot-dropping [[fiend]], anywhere, during this event.

-Glyphs are unbound upon acquisition.
+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.
-===Mission Lobby (Depth 0)===
+Defenses:
-The lobby of this mission is called the Ancient Grove. It is a place similar to [[Gloaming Wildwoods]]. A [[Mysterious Alchemy Machine]] can be found here. [[Basil]] will is at the top left of the map.
-As the Fiendish Memo of [[Morgral'm]] indicates; a member of the party needs to use the Fiendish ID Card in order to access the next level, "Call of the Colossi." The party will be lock after the ID Card is used. To "use" the ID card, simply have one in your arsenal, and interact with the portal that has the chains and the lock on it. Doing so will remove the lock and consume the ID card. The party can proceed to the next floor once everyone is standing on the pad.
+The following consider fiend attacks and tortodrone AoE shocks. For other tortodrone attacks, elemental/normal/piercing UVs are ideal.
+*[[Sacred Falcon Hex Helm]]
+*[[Sacred Falcon Hex Armor]]
+*[[Crest of Almire]]
-===Call of the Colossi===
+Offenses:
-Players must defeat two corrupted [[Tortodrone]]s. Devilites and rarely Greavers can spawn infinitely from portals. These portals can be destroyed with regular attacks, but the portals will respawn quickly. Special hazards (Vortex Blocks and Super Explosive Blocks), brambles, and Silkwing respawners can be encountered.
+*[[Volcanic Pepperbox]]
+*[[Iron Slug]]
-After defeating the corrupted Tortodrones and heading to the elevator, the party can see a lot of normal Tortodrones marching in the background, this is probably the called Long Migration.
