Introduction

  • Welcome to the 100-floor Pagoda! This Event is an exercise in how well Masters can juggle their Servant roster in clearing 100 battles as they climb the Pagoda to reach the final challenge!

Floor Quests

Setsubun Floor Quests
  • Completing Floor Clear Quests is the primary goal of the Event:
    • Every Floor Clear Quest costs 1 AP.
    • A boss appears every 10th floor, which features a battle against a Break Bar enemy Servant (10F, 20F, 30F, etc).
    • Servants that participate in a Floor Clear Quest will gain "Exhaustion", which lasts for 4 hours, and will render them unable to participate in another Floor Clear Quest while they are still exhausted.
    • Failing to clear a quest or retreating will not incur "Exhaustion".

Hot Springs

Setsubun Hot Springs
  • The Event also features Hot Springs, which are unlocked after the first Floor Clear Quest.
    • Hot Springs allow Servants to recover from Exhaustion at double speed.
    • Masters can assign up to five Servants at a time to the Hot Springs.
    • Servants can be removed from Hot Springs before recovery is completed. Recovery progress is kept, but recovery rate will return to normal speed.

Lineup Restrictions

Setsubun No Supports
  • There are some Party Lineup Restrictions:
    • NO SUPPORT SERVANTS ALLOWED! Masters must rely on their own Roster!
    • At least 3 Servants must be placed in the lineup to begin a Floor Clear Quest.

Event Tips

  • Some tips on organizing Servant lineups:
    • For most non-boss floors, if possible, try to bring the minimum of 3 Servants to clear a quest.
    • The most roster- and time-conserving method is to bring 1x AoE Class-Advantage Servant that can NP immediately (Kaleidoscope, The Imaginary Element, or NP Gauge charge via Mystic Code: Mage's Association Uniform) + 2x Fodder Servants
    • If the above is unavailable, almost all Floor Quests (except the last 10 floors) are mono-class, so bringing a party of three Servants with class advantage is sufficient to comfortably clear most quests.
    • For boss floors, don't forget to equip [An Oni in Human Clothing] for the damage boost!
Floor Type Floor Clear Party Suggestions
Non-boss floor
(1~9F, 11~19F, etc)
Fastest Method - AoE NP first turn:
- 1x [AoE NP Servant w/ Class Adv] + An Oni in Human Clothing
- ( An Oni in Human Clothing ) if needed for NP Charge
- 2x Fodder Servants
If above is not available:
- Most floor clears are mono-class (except last 10 floors)
- Bringing a set of 3 Servants with Class Advantage is sufficient.
Boss floor
(40F, 50F, etc)
Lineup will depend upon the Boss.
- Remember to bring An Oni in Human Clothing An Oni in Human Clothing on your damage dealer for +100% Damage (+200% MLB). The first copy is provided on 30F.
  • The entire event lasts just under 7 days (~164 hours).
  • If planning to clear all 200 floors, you will need at least one party that can defeat floor bosses and at least 3 independent floor-clearing parties (and this assumes perfect quest start times after exhaustion comes off cooldown). Practically speaking (sleep is important!), Masters will want to have 1 or 2 boss-slaying parties and at least 6 floor clear parties at minimum.
