Unlocking Critical Conquest and Maximizing Scroll Farming
Once you reach level 60 in Crystal of Atlan, Critical Conquest becomes one of the most rewarding activities for farming rare materials like insignias, strategic codes, permits, and hunter licenses. The key to better rewards lies in using your orange energy instead of green—this improves your chances of collecting higher-value items.
Every successful run grants you Unsealed Scrolls, which serve as entries for the daily prize draw at 9:00 p.m. Running with double potions gets you two scrolls per clear. You can earn up to 30 scrolls per character each week, which resets on Monday. Stack these with multiple alts and you can easily build up to 150 entries for better odds on high-value insignias.
Optimizing Energy Use to Farm Valuable Drops
Green energy is typically tied to general farming but doesn’t yield class-specific or top-tier rewards in Critical Conquest. If your goal is to farm orange or pink insignias, it’s more effective to burn your orange energy there instead. You can now earn scrolls even when using orange energy, which wasn't always the case.
By timing your energy use around prize draw resets and stacking entries across alts, you significantly improve your loot outcomes. This makes Critical Conquest a central piece of your weekly farming routine.
Understanding the Combat Insignia Slot
In the Insignia menu, the second slot marked Combat Insignia confuses many players. It functions as a preset switch depending on the content you’re entering. You can assign insignia sets based on different types of gameplay, such as boss fights or specific dungeons like Abyss or Checkmate.
Most players don’t use this feature due to the high cost of acquiring two viable insignia sets. Still, knowing that you can customize builds per activity helps when you finally have the gear to make it work.
Breaking Down Hex Chest Rewards and Drop Mechanics
Hex Chests are often misunderstood, especially regarding solo vs. elite rewards. Story and elite modes share similar rewards, but elite gives better drops during the second card flip—after defeating Queen and King bosses.
Each mode offers a specific number of Jet Black Sculptures:
-
Solo: 5
-
Story: 7
-
Elite: 9
These fragments can be dismantled for currency or used to build equipment. Solo mode still has value for casual farming, especially if you’re using alts.
Using Fragments for Easy Gold on Alt Characters
If your alts are not part of your main gear-building plan, any Hex Chest fragments or epic item drops they acquire can be dismantled into Hex Chest Dysium. These items can be sold in the market for roughly 300k gold, offering an effortless way to convert unused loot into profit.
This makes daily solo hex chest runs worth your time across all alt characters—even if they’re under-geared.
How to Get Buffs from Drinks and Sleep Spots
In Golden Fleece Vintage, you can purchase stat-enhancing drinks from Crazy. While they usually require a party to activate, there's a solo option by sitting down and purchasing the buff manually.
Another method for free buffs is to visit Adventurer’s Lodge in Lumiville, where sleeping can grant temporary bonuses. The best ones include Restful Sleep (+stats) or +3 Attack, though there’s also a chance of a brief nightmare debuff. Buff durations are typically 30 minutes; debuffs only last 5.
Finding the Best Gold Buff Drinks Per Character
Different characters get different drinks in Golden Fleece Vintage. Some drinks, like the Gold Gain +5%, are extremely useful when stacked in a party or even when running solo. The minor damage debuff is negligible compared to the gold farming benefit.
Rotating through characters lets you find the best buff available and coordinate accordingly for farming or dungeon runs.
How Armor Mastery Adds Passive Stats
Many players overlook the Heavy Armor Mastery passive, which boosts stats like Strength, Physique, HP, and CD Rate based on your armor type and enhancement level. Most class gear qualifies as flex armor, so this passive likely applies to your current set.
Higher enhancement levels increase these bonuses, and while the effect is disabled in PvP, it’s crucial for PvE progression and survivability.
Using Skill Presets for Content-Specific Builds
Under your Skills tab, you can create and assign different skill presets for specific activities—solo content, PvP, elite dungeons, and more. This avoids the hassle of switching skills every time and prevents mistakes like entering Void Nest with your PvP setup.
Use the pencil icon to assign a preset to content types like Elite Dungeons, Checkmate, or Sparring, and duplicate or share skill builds using the copy-paste functionality.
Why Wondershop Summons Are Vital for Progression
After using around 100 energy per character, you unlock a Wondershop Summoning Ticket. This opens the Wondershop, where discounted items and Transfer Stones are available. These are essential for moving equipment between characters.
If you manage multiple alts in the same fleet, you can switch characters to access better shop rolls, helping each alt click on the Wondershop and take advantage of discounts.
Extra Energy Sharing Between Alts and Main Character
When completing your daily battle pass objectives, you earn battery packs that grant 20 energy. If you’re not using an alt regularly, you can transfer this energy to your main for use in Critical Conquest or other high-value activities.
Just remember: Green energy is required for farming epic equipment drops. So use orange for scrolls and gold-focused farming, and green when targeting actual gear.
Bonus: When Boss Changes in Abyssal Purgatory Signal Prayer Activation
In Abyssal Purgatory, if the final boss changes from the usual Ancient Fist, it means your prayer request has succeeded. This visual cue is crucial because it guarantees the drop you’ve been farming for.
This detail is often missed, but it’s one of the fastest ways to confirm your prayer activation and increase the value of your farming runs.
Conclusion
Whether you're just starting or already deep into Crystal of Atlan, optimizing how you use your time, energy, and characters is essential. From understanding how Critical Conquest scrolls work to leveraging alt characters for gold farming, each of these insights helps you make better progress with less grind. Use Wondershop discounts, apply buffs effectively, and don’t overlook minor mechanics like skill presets and armor mastery—they all stack up over time. Focus on what’s valuable, reuse what your alts collect, and don’t forget to share your own discoveries with the community.
