Last War Ghost Ops Guide: Unlock Heroes, Routes & Full Rewards

Hey commanders! Season 1: Celebration is heating up, and day 60 brings one of the best events to farm rare hero shards. If you loved "Secret Mobile Squad," you will feel right at home with Ghost Ops. This post breaks down how the event works, the best ways to help your alliance, and how to maximize your loot. Time to mobilize. Here is what you need to know.

 

Ghost Ops Basics: Rules & Rewards

Let's cut to the chase. Here is how the core loop works if you want to farm efficiently. It is easily the best way to recruit unowned heroes without spending cash.

Requirements and Core Loop

• Launch Date: The event unlocks exactly on Day 60 of Season 1 (Celebration).
• The Main Focus: It heavily relies on your hero roster and close alliance teamwork.
• Hero Recruitment: Collect 10 shards through this event to unlock a brand-new hero.

Mission Tiers and Shard Drops

Forget SSR missions—they rarely drop anything good. You want to aim higher. Focus on higher tiers to get the best rewards:

• SSR Missions: Gives base rewards. Shard drops are rare or non-existent here.
• UR Missions: Requires specific 4★ or higher heroes.
  • Level 4 Missions: Drops 1 hero shard.
  • Level 5 Missions: Drops 2 hero shards.
• Star UR Missions: Same rules as UR, but way better loot. It drops 5 hero shards.

 

Timers and Daily Limits

Ghost Ops is a time-sensitive event. You cannot just play it whenever you want, so mark your calendars.

Event Schedule (Every Thursday)

The event only opens on Thursdays (Server Time) during four specific 3-hour windows:

• 00:00 - 03:00
• 06:00 - 09:00
• 12:00 - 15:00
• 18:00 - 21:00

Your Daily Action Quotas

Every Thursday, you can perform three types of actions. Manage your limits wisely:

• Personal Missions (Limit 3): The system gives you 3 random missions. You cannot reroll the required heroes.
• Alliance Assistance:
  • Participate (Limit 3): Join a teammate's mission to share the actual item rewards.
  • Volunteer (Unlimited): Join just to help out. You only get alliance contribution points.
• Plunder Missions (Limit 5): Attack other players' Ghost Ops on the world map or other servers for extra loot.

 

Ghost Ops Protocol: Step-by-Step Blueprint

Don't just click buttons blindly. Follow this flow to make sure you get 100% of the rewards.

Step 1: Deploy and Share

Pick a mission and deploy your matching heroes. Once ready, share the mission link to your alliance chat immediately.

Step 2: Match, March, and Protect!

Wait for your allies to join. Once the hero requirements are met, start the march immediately. The mission will take a few tens of minutes to complete, and speed is key here.

• ⚠️ The Anti-Plunder Warning: Just like daily Secret Tasks, your Ghost Ops can be looted up to 5 times by other players (including those from other servers). If you get plundered, your hard-earned rewards will shrink. To minimize risks, try to start the mission during quiet hours or ensure high-power alliance members are online to backup your march.
• 🔒 Hero Lock: Your deployed heroes are locked until the mission ends. They cannot be sent on other tasks, so plan your daily routine around your deployment.
• 🤝 Don't Hog slots (Alliance Etiquette): When joining an ally's mission, don't just grab any random spot. If you don't own the "Designated Heroes," leave the slots open for allies who actually have them (especially those 4★ or higher heroes) so the team can trigger the Full Special Reward Pool.

Step 3: Manual Claiming

When the timer hits zero, rewards are not sent to your mail. You must physically go to the Secret Command Post and claim your loot manually!

 

 

Ghost Ops Loot: Maximizing Your Reward Pools

If you match the hero conditions perfectly, the loot is massive. Here is what you can get from the reward pools.

Base UR Rewards

• Shards for one of the two designated event heroes.
• Secret Supply Chests, Speedups, Resources, and Gear Chests.

Full Special Reward Pool

Triggering the hero condition drops 10 random rewards from this specific pool:

Reward Type	Drop Details & Percentages
Gold Chests	Blue (4 chests, 20%) / Purple (15 chests, 15%) / Gold (5 chests, 5%)
Skill Chip Chests	SR Grade (8 chests) / SSR Grade (2% chance)
Growth Resources	Competency Medals (500 medals, 10%) / Drone Coins (5 coins, 5%)
Speedups	1-Hour Speedups (15% chance)
Core Selection	Hero Shard or Exclusive Weapon Selection Chest (20% chance)
