Reward System

The rewards of this Global Expedition are centered on Hero Awakening Shards, covering a variety of rare props.

The specific reward details are as follows:

Core Reward List

The event rewards cover three categories, taking into account hero development and resource improvement, including: Kimberly Awakening Shards (exclusive to Round 1), Universal Awakening Shards (available for all rounds), various rare development props and basic resources, which fully meet the development needs of players. Among them, Awakening Shards are the core materials for heroes to unlock the awakened state and improve their star level.

Key Notes on Kimberly Awakening Shards

As a key awakened hero in Season 6, the acquisition efficiency of Kimberly's Awakening Shards directly affects the progress of hero development. Combined with the event rules and development needs, the key information is sorted out as follows:

• Free Acquisition Quota: Through the first round of this Global Expedition, players can get 30 Kimberly Awakening Shards for free without spending money, which can be unlocked by completing basic levels.
• Total Shards Required for Full Awakening: A total of 50 Awakening Shards are needed for Kimberly's full awakening, and it is impossible to complete full awakening only with the free shards obtained from the event.
• Way to Make Up for Remaining Shards: If you want to quickly make up for the remaining 20 shards, you can purchase the corresponding paid gift package, with a reference price of about $20; but from the perspective of cost performance, it is not recommended to spend money alone to make up for it.
• Optimal Acquisition Path: Unlocking the Battle Pass at the beginning of the season is the optimal way to obtain Kimberly Awakening Shards and achieve full awakening. Compared with purchasing shard gift packages alone, it has higher cost performance, and can also get additional generous rewards, helping Kimberly quickly upgrade to 5 stars to unlock exclusive weapon adaptation capabilities.

Combat Power Buffs

To efficiently clear the Global Expedition, it is crucial to reasonably use the event-exclusive Buffs. This event provides two core buffs: Tactics Card Buff and Area-Specific Buff. Mastering the activation skills can greatly improve the team's combat power and easily break through high-difficulty levels.

Tactics Card Buff 

This Buff is the core way to improve the team's combat power, directly affecting the efficiency of level clearing. The specific rules and improvement skills are as follows:

• Source of Bonus: Only Non-Core Tactics Cards can provide this Buff bonus, and Core Tactics Cards are not included in the bonus calculation. This point needs to be paid special attention to avoid wasting resources to upgrade Core Cards.
• Improvement Method: Players can improve the total level of Non-Core Tactics Cards by upgrading them and completing various in-game tasks related to Tactics Cards. The higher the level, the stronger the Buff bonus effect, which can significantly improve the attack and defense attributes of heroes and help break through the level limit.
• Core Suggestion: Before the start of each round of the event, give priority to upgrading Non-Core Tactics Cards. Even a small increase in level can bring a significant increase in combat power, which is a key preparation for efficient level clearing.

Area-Specific Buffs

Each of the 4 areas in each round has its own exclusive Buff, with different effects, suitable for different types of hero teams. Reasonable use can further improve combat efficiency. The Buff effects of the first two areas in Round 1 are shown below:

Area	Exclusive Buff Effect	Suitable Hero Type
Area 1	After accumulating 6 damage instances, get an additional 150% Energy Damage bonus.	Multi-hit damage heroes
Area 2	All heroes’ critical hit rate increased by 7.5%.	Critical hit teams

Leaderboard Gameplay

This Global Expedition has a server-wide leaderboard, and the leaderboard ranking directly determines the exclusive ranking rewards. To obtain high-level rewards, it is necessary to master the leaderboard rules and skills. The details are as follows:

• Ranking Basis: The core ranking standard is the total points accumulated by players in a single round of the event. The higher the points, the higher the ranking, which is directly linked to the number of levels cleared.
• Reward Settings: The leaderboard has exclusive ranking rewards. The higher the ranking, the more generous the rewards. It not only includes a large number of Universal Awakening Shards, but also rare rewards such as exclusive titles and high-level resource chests, which is one of the core goals pursued by high-level players.
• Key to Leaderboard Rush: Each round of the event only lasts 14 days. After the event ends, players will no longer be able to improve their points and ranking in this round. Therefore, it is necessary to complete all area levels as soon as possible within the time limit, maximize the accumulation of points, lock the ranking advantage, and avoid missing high-level rewards due to timeout.

Practical Guide

Combined with the event rules and gameplay characteristics, 3 core practical suggestions are sorted out to help players participate in the event efficiently, avoid common misunderstandings, maximize the acquisition of event rewards, and at the same time take into account the efficiency of combat power improvement and resource utilization:

1. Reasonably Plan Time: Keep in mind the 14-day time limit for each round. Especially the first 7 days after the event starts is the golden period to quickly advance levels and accumulate points. Avoid rushing to clear levels near the end, resulting in insufficient points and missing rewards. At the same time, you can reasonably allocate time to participate in Global Expedition and other concurrent activities in combination with the overall event rhythm of Week 2 of Season 6.

2. Prioritize Activating Buffs: After the start of each round of the event, first upgrade Non-Core Tactics Cards to activate the maximum Buff, then adjust the hero team according to the exclusive Buff of the current area to adapt to the Buff effect and improve the level clearing efficiency; avoid rushing to clear levels blindly without activating Buffs, which wastes time and stamina. In addition, you can quickly obtain card upgrade resources through alliance mutual assistance to improve the level of Non-Core Cards.

3. Rationally Choose the Way to Obtain Shards: There is no need to spend money alone to buy gift packages to make up for Kimberly Awakening Shards. Prioritize obtaining shards through the Battle Pass, which has higher cost performance; at the same time, reasonably allocate Universal Awakening Shards, giving priority to core hero development to avoid wasting rare resources. If you have a long-term development plan, you can accumulate shards of other awakened heroes synchronously to prepare for subsequent team upgrades.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the Season 6 Global Expedition is a low-threshold, high-reward limited-time event with three rounds throughout the season, serving as a key source of Hero Awakening Shards (especially Kimberly’s in Round 1). To maximize benefits, players should grasp the 14-day per-round time limit, prioritize upgrading Non-Core Tactics Cards, and flexibly use Area-Specific Buffs. The Battle Pass is the most cost-effective way to get Kimberly Awakening Shards. Following this guide helps both new and old players gain rich rewards and lay a solid foundation for core hero development in Season 6.
