A community stage database describes 16 areas and 47 outposts, from Area 0 through Area 15. Each stage can carry different enemy levels, wave counts and follower requirements. The map also includes special Duels and Peak Duels. Use the overview below to understand where you are and what to check before moving on.

How map progress works

Normal stages: Repeatable battles used to continue progression and gather resources.

Outpost Duels: Special one-time wins at individual outposts in the community map description.

Peak Duels: One-time area challenges, indicated by purple skull markers in community documentation.

Follower requirements: Entry or progression gates that can become substantial in later regions. Read the active stage panel for its current threshold.

Region 12: why older stage advice may be wrong

Version 1.0.7 fixed abnormal defense values for monsters in Region 12. If your experience differs from an early guide, use the current game behavior rather than assuming the earlier enemy data is still reliable. Patch notes →

Where is the Tower of Valor?

An October 11 community map reference identifies Area 15, Stage 15-3 (Skyreach Tower) as the milestone for unlocking the central-island Tower of Valor. A subsequent official patch added 2,000 Tower floors, so old floor totals need caution. Tower guide →

How to investigate a blocked stage

  1. Read the actual stage's follower requirement and Duel status.
  2. Check the enemy lineup and whether the squad is dying or simply lacking damage.
  3. Review equipment, role fit and any relevant Combat Style in the current build.
  4. Repeat an appropriate normal stage if you need experience or materials.
  5. Try the blocked encounter again after changing one major element, so the result teaches you something.
