Crystal Defense is a special late-game mode where players can earn unique currency and unlock rare items. The real endgame begins in this challenging arena, which is restricted to veterans who have fully reached Sea 2. If you want to see everything in this mode and grind skillfully, our comprehensive guide on how Crystal Defense works in Sailor Piece is here.
Where to Find Crystal Defense in Sailor Piece?
Crystal Defense is located on Punch Island in Sailor Piece. To get there, you need to unlock Sea 2 in Sailor Piece and use the portal. Proceed along the path to the left where you find the Fast Ninja NPCs. By passing them, you can find the Crystal Defense NPCs. This is directly to the Northwest of the Cosmic Being World Boss.
How to Enter Crystal Defense?
To enter the Crystal Defense mode in Sailor Piece, Crystal Keys are required. You can only obtain the keys by defeating all NPCs in Sea 2 of Sailor Piece. Once you have a key, head towards the Crystal Defense NPC on Punch Island and interact with the NPC on the right.
After the interaction, click the Spawn button to open the Crystal Defense portal. The run will automatically start after the timer. You can enter by clicking the Start button immediately.
If it is not the portal you entered, stand close to the portal and hold down the E key to enter Crystal Defense with the host. Up to 4 players can enter Crystal Defense at the same time.
Crystal Defense Mode Description in Sailor Piece
Now that you have learned how to start the Crystal Defense run, here is how the game mode works in Sailor Piece:
- When you enter Crystal Defense, you need to vote to start the run. Therefore, prepare your best damage build in Sailor Piece before voting.
- The main objective of Crystal Defense is to protect the crystal in the center. The crystal spawns with 100% HP, and all NPCs and bosses attack it to deal damage. You must defeat them before they can damage it.
- A random debuff is applied at each level. This includes half ability damage, increased cooldown, and more.
- Every 5 levels, a boss appears with a chance to drop Anti Magic sword, Demon Wings accessory, and Demon Dweller title. The drop chance depends on your luck stat in the game.
- When the crystal is destroyed, the run fails, and a prompt appears to restart Crystal Defense. You need to spend 1x Crystal Key to restart. You can enable automatic respawning from the settings option by typing the level.
- You can earn 1-4 Crystal Coins for each wave you clear. Improved luck stat helps you earn more coins.
