Farm routes

Cosmic Dog Act 5 loop, Dungeon Train Pages on the 30-minute refresh, Lich Portal into Lair, and Nightosphere Infinite into Halloween Raid.

  1. Cosmic Dog farm (Ice Kingdom). Open Enchiridion on Stretchy Dog → Go there → clear Ice Kingdom Act 5 ten times for Sandwiches → run Dungeon Train for 5 Pages → Evolve for 1,000 Gems.
  2. Pages while you Act 5. Check Dungeon Train every 30 minutes. Three cars refresh with modifiers. Bank Pages before you start the next Story evolution.
  3. Lich line. Farm Infinite until Portals drop (30% every 10 waves) → open Lich's Lair → bank Ooze → Evolve The Lich with 5 Ooze + 10 Pages (no Gems).
  4. Halloween Raid loop. Nightosphere Infinite to 10/20/30 for Bug Milk → Vampire Queen house face door → clear 15 waves for Candy → spend Candy on Banner, shop, or Halo Lily crafts.

Mode tips

  • Farm one Act 5 at a time. Ten personal materials equals ten Act 5 wins for a standard Story evolve. Do not split farms across three heroes mid-route.
  • Bug Milk before Raid. Select the Nightosphere Infinite card that shows Bug Milk. Older servers can still show the pre-patch 30% text; the Oct 24 card lists 100% every ten waves.
  • Raid Candy bonuses. Base is 25 Candy per wave. Halloween heroes and skins add listed Candy bonuses (caps on the panel). 2x Drops doubles Candy and listed drops when owned.
  • Raid party entry. One Bug Milk opens the gate for the party. Friends join at the face door without spending their own bottle.
