Endurance Monsters[]

Vi, Viyu, and Viyusa were introduced during the Meteoroid. They were available in all areas, and continued to be available everywhere after the event.

The global quest: Procrastination's a Thief, which requires Dust Warriors to fight the endurance monsters, was introduced during the Meteoroid. This quest remained available after the event.

Kyiat and Dessti were the first to spot the new creatures, warning about "a myth of olden times" in a letter. I'm sure I'll find out more as I chase them down. All I know is that they're stealing every type of currency, so I'll make sure to keep my coin bag close. On the plus side, the Alien Fleet isn't pleased with their tokens being stolen, so they've offered a set of Wardrobe Antenna as a reward for defeating one of each creature!

Wardrobe[]

Token Store[]

At the token store found on the Spaceship, Dust Warriors could trade fleet tokens for wardrobe rewards.

Reaction Market[]

These reactions (along with others) were available in the Reaction Market for 10 core crystals for a pack of 25.

Wardrobe Collection[]

These were available at the Wardrobe Store in exchange for core crystals.

General Tactics[]

See each event area for tactical recommendations specific to its quests.

The mission briefing indicates we will need 750 fleet tokens to purchase all items from the store, and a fleet token will be dropped for about each 100 words. This sets the goal at 75,000 words, before ATK bonuses, for completionists (however, established completionists will have useful items from previous events).

Toko (150 words/20 min.) seems to be the best word-drop ratio for Fleet tokens, dropping two due to rounding, giving a net rate of 75 words per token, thus making the 750 fleet token goal possible with 56,250 words for Dust Warriors who only fight Toko. However, getting this drop rate may depend on your Luck score (as well as little-l luck).

Fin is needed for both the We Will Rock You! single quest (x10) and each step of the three part series (50 total) so double counting makes sense.
