Alliance Duel - Guide

Last verified: September 20, 2026. Alliance Duel scoring and rewards may change after game updates.

Points Table — What Your Actions Are Worth

Base rates below are community-collected (the best cross-checked values from player guides — not yet live-verified, since the in-game panel always shows numbers with your own boosts already applied). The right-hand columns show the same action with a maxed Alliance Recognition tree (×5) and with Chinatsu fully maxed on top (+55%). Your own Points Details panel should match the column for your build — if it doesn’t, trust the live panel and tell us so this table stays current.

Day	Action	Base points	Max AR (×5)	Max AR + Chinatsu (×7.75)
1 · Modification	Golden Wrench used	5,000	25,000	38,750
1 · Modification	Orange chip chest opened	~200,000	~1,000,000	~1,550,000
2 · Construction	Orange refugee recruited	33,000	165,000	~256,000
2 · Construction	Orange Bounty Mission	~49,500	~247,000	~384,000
2 · Construction	1-min construction speed-up	~35	~175	~271
3 · Research	Orange intercity trade truck	~60,000	~300,000	~465,000
3 · Research	Research badges spent	~10× the points the same badges give on other days — spend badges on Day 3 only
2 or 4 (confirm live)	Pulse Module consumed (new)	~82,000	~410,000	~640,000
2 or 4 (confirm live)	Forging Stone consumed (new)	~3,300	~16,500	~25,600

Since the Mythic Forging update, consuming Forging Stones and Pulse Modules scores duel points — the per-item values above are community-reported, and reports differ on which day they count (some place forging under Construction, some under Hero day). Check your live Points Details panel before deciding which day to forge. Hero-day and training-day per-item values have no reliable public numbers yet; they’ll be filled in from live panels as we verify them. Refugee value scales hard with rarity (purple ≈ ⅙ of orange, blue ≈ ¹⁄₃₀, green ≈ 0) — orange or nothing.

Alliance Recognition Research: Why It Matters Early

If you only remember one long-term event rule from this guide, make it this: Alliance Recognition is the research that makes future Alliance Duel weeks more valuable. It increases reward value, unlocks more chests, and improves how quickly the event pays back your badge investment. It is important for event economy, but it should still be balanced against core combat research needs.

This research does not give direct fighting power, but it:

Doubles every chest reward — a full-clear day pays 1,660 badges instead of 830 and 220k Enhancement Alloy instead of 110k, and Day 6’s Valor Medals jump 5,200 → 10,400
Unlocks chests 4-9 — Access to all Alliance Duel rewards
Gives more versatile fragments — 2 orange fragments instead of 1
Increases score capacity — Easier to hit 6 million points

Badge Requirements

Event King research: ~143,500 badges total
Event Expert: Additional 22-44k badges
Important scoring checkpoints: approximately 175,000–200,000 badges depending on the exact nodes selected
Complete Alliance Recognition tree: 356,770 badges

The investment pays off: Once maxed, full-clearing every day pays 9,960 badges per week from the chests alone, before league and ranking rewards. Farm badges efficiently with Lucky Discounter.

Research Benefits

Event King: +200% global score modifier
Event Expert: +100% points
Combined: 300% extra points when maxed

Chest Thresholds & Rewards

Nine chests per day. Days 1–5 share one threshold ladder; Day 6 (Enemy Buster) is cheaper and adds Valor Medals:

Points needed	C1	C2	C3	C4	C5	C6	C7	C8	C9
Days 1–5	20k	80k	300k	550k	840k	1.5M	2.2M	3M	6M
Day 6	17k	69k	240k	290k	450k	980k	1.1M	1.6M	3.2M

What a full clear (all 9 chests) pays — base, and doubled once Alliance Recognition’s reward node is complete:

Reward	Per day (base)	Weekly, all 6 days (base)	Weekly ×2 with AR complete
Badges	830	4,980	9,960
Valor Medals (Day 6 only)	5,200	5,200	10,400
Enhancement Alloy	110,000	660,000	1,320,000
Orange (Versatile) Fragments	2	12	24
Orange Skill Books	20	120	240
Diamonds (100-packs)	300	1,800	3,600
Purple Hero Fragments	8 (Days 1–5)	40	80
Purple Skill Books	80 (52 on Day 6)	452	904
Duel Master Supply Boxes	15	~90	~180

On top of the chests, the alliance league pays per matchup (Gold / Diamond league): daily victory 140 / 160 badges + 6 / 8 purple fragments + 20 of each resource chest; weekly victory 1,000 / 1,500 badges + 5 / 6 orange fragments + 500 / 1,000 diamonds; even a weekly defeat pays 500 / 1,000 badges + 4 / 5 orange fragments + 200 / 500 diamonds. Personal state ranking (Diamond league) adds up to 200 badges + 200 diamonds + 80k alloy per day for rank 1.

Alliance Duel Day 1–6 Schedule

The Alliance Duel schedule repeats in a fixed Day 1–6 pattern. If you plan your week around this cycle, you waste fewer resources, hit more milestones, and make it easier to score on the hard days without overspending.

Day 1 — Modification: Use wrenches, blueprints, and component boxes. Clear saved radar tasks.
Day 2 — Construction: Use building speed-ups, refugee recruits, and orange bounties. Finish long upgrades.
Day 3 — Research: Spend research speed-ups and badges. Prioritize orange trade trucks.
Day 4 — Heroes: Use recruitment tickets, fragments, cores, and alloy upgrades for your main team.
Day 5 — Training: Train/assemble units and use training speed-ups in bulk.
Day 6 — Combat: Coordinate attacks, defeats, and rallies to hit combat milestones.

Day 1 (Monday): Mod Vehicle Boost

What gives points:

Using golden wrenches
Using modification blueprints
Opening vehicle component boxes
Opening chip chests (orange = 1 million points!)
Radar tasks
Rally boomers

Strategy:

Save radar tasks from Sunday
Open ALL component boxes and chip chests on Monday only
Buy 15 wrenches weekly (10 VIP store + 5 Glory shop)
Stop at 6 million — save remaining items for next week

Day 2 (Tuesday): Shelter Upgrade

What gives points:

Construction upgrades
Construction speed-ups
Recruiting refugees (orange = 165k points with max AR research)
Orange Bounty Missions (247k points with max AR research)

Strategy:

Save 20-40 refresh tickets — Use ONLY on Tuesday for orange missions
Refugee trick: Recruit once, then “Try Your Luck” to save tokens
When orange refugee appears — DON’T reset, recruit them
Save unfinished buildings for future upgrades
Sync with Full Preparedness at Apocalypse Time 08:00 and 20:00

Day 3 (Wednesday): Age of Science

What gives points:

Research speed-ups
Tech points
Consuming badges
Orange intercity trade trucks (4 trucks = 1.2 million points)

Strategy:

Use research speed-ups ONLY on Wednesday
Use badges ONLY on Wednesday
Complete 4 orange intercity trades = 1.2M points (easy)
Focus on Age of Science at Apocalypse Time 08:00 and 20:00

Reality check: This is one of the HARDEST days. If you can’t reach 6 million, stop at 3 million — at least get one versatile fragment. Speed-ups are scarce.

Day 4 (Thursday): Hero Initiative

What gives points:

Hero fragments (any color)
Exclusive equipment fragments (orange only)
Primary recruitment
Power cores (equipment upgrade)
Equipment upgrades
Orange skill books

Strategy:

Easiest day to score!
Focus on orange gear upgrades first
Upgrade main 5 heroes equipment ONLY
Upgrade blue/purple heroes ONLY on Thursday (for gathering speed skills)

Critical warning: Do NOT spend enhancement alloys on purple/blue equipment. Save all alloys for orange equipment only.

Where to get Power Cores: Tent event rewards (up to 250), Military shop (1,000 — only after all 5 heroes have orange equipment).

Day 5 (Friday): Holistic Growth

What gives points:

Any speed-up (construction, research, training)
Training/assembling/promoting units
Radar tasks
Season 2: Overlord items (Bond Badge, Training Certificate, Guidebook)

Strategy:

Main focus: Training troops
Use training speed-ups ONLY on Friday
Save radar tasks from Thursday
Keep training daily, but save speed-ups for Friday

Day 6 (Saturday): Enemy Buster

What gives points:

Defeating enemy units
Your units getting killed in battle
Orange Bounty Missions
Orange intercity trade

Strategy:

Easiest event!
Ask enemies for tank vs tank battles
Or just attack and destroy
Use Bounty refreshes carefully — orange missions still score, but TvT and enemy Headquarters attacks are usually the bigger point source.

Enemy Buster also opens the free Saturday server teleport to your Alliance Duel opponent. Use the Enemy Buster Teleport Guide before spending normal teleport items or jumping servers for farming.

Tip: If low on points, just go kill. It’s the simplest solution.

Additional Tips

Radar Stacking: Complete radar missions but don’t claim them until the appropriate day. To stack mission just complete (they will have a red dot) all the missions you see on map and leave them there. For Laura’s missions, click on the icon on the left when it appears and do not claim it.
Gathering: Send out troops to gather resources strategically to maximize points. “Gathering – send out your troops to gather all day.”
Hero Experience: Use hero EXP on Mondays to win the day, even if it’s not the designated Hero Day. “Its nice but blowing exp on a Monday is definitely a valid strategy.”

General Strategy for Alliance Duel

Maximize Alliance Recognition (AR): This is crucial for achieving high scores.
Hoard and Spend Strategically: Save resources like blueprints, wrenches, and speedups for specific days when they yield the most points.
Discipline and Coordination: Ensure everyone in your alliance follows the same strategy.
