Key takeaways
  • ✓1. Filter the map by boss and level
  • ✓2. Look up the counter element
  • ✓3. Set up a statue and a base nearby
  • ✓4. Bring capture spheres, not just weapons

1. Filter the map by boss and level

Fight the alphas inside your band first; the reward curve does not justify overreaching.

2. Look up the counter element

Element multipliers matter more than raw level in alpha fights — the damage calculator gives the exact multiplier.

3. Set up a statue and a base nearby

Respawn farming is a loop; travel time decides how many attempts per hour you get.

4. Bring capture spheres, not just weapons

Alphas can be caught, and a captured alpha becomes a strong mount or base worker.

5. Farm the respawn window

Note the clear time and return when the timer lapses instead of wandering between spawns.
