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.

Recommendations

Loadout

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.

• Sacred Falcon Hex Helm
• Sacred Falcon Hex Armor
• Crest of Almire

Offenses:

• Volcanic Pepperbox
• Iron Slug
