Walkthrough Guide:





In this place, you need to build your defenses, which are the Wall, Tower, Ballista, Moat, and Cannon. In addition, the phase of this place is divided into two: Day and Night. During the Day, hunters hunt normally to gather materials to build the defenses. The mice during the Day are mostly weak against Law trap. At Night, hunters will have to face stronger mice which has Shadow -type weakness. These mice drop better materials to upgrade your defenses more. Each time the horn is sounded, the night mice attack the wall reducing its HP. Once the wall is breached, hunters will return to the Day automatically and can build more defenses if enough materials are gathered. Remember to also repair your wall during the Day using Meteorite Piece . Hunters can also use the 'Retreat' button to return to the Day for no penalty.

Night has several phases that are different in length. During the different phases the mice populations change. Please refer to the Night Phase above for more information.







1. Accessing Fort Rox

Adventure: Gain Access to Fort Rox Obtain the Fort Rox Battle Summons from the Claw Shot City Cartographer













Adventure: Prepare Your Defenses Collect 50 Meteorite Pieces Build the Basic Wall Build the Mage Tower





To start, collect the Meteorite Piece dropped from the mice here during the Day.

Use regular cheese, such as Gouda Cheese or Brie Cheese and equip your Law trap to hunt them







After you have at least 50 Meteorite Piece , you can start building the Basic Wall which costs:

50 Meteorite Piece and 30,000 gold





I also recommend you to build the Mage Tower as it only costs:

5,000 gold













3. Enter the Night Howlite , get 1

Adventure: Prepare Your Defenses Get Moon Cheese Get Crescent Cheese Face the Night

Adventure: Discover the Source of Howlite Collect Howlite





Now that we have the Basic Wall ready, we can start hunting at Night.

Click the Defend Fort button to enter the Night mode.

The first phase is Twilight, which lasts for 35 hunts. If this is your first time hunting in Fort Rox, you might not last to Midnight phase, which is normal. Do not get discouraged.





The goal here is to get at least one Howlite as it is an important material to build your next defense, which is the Ballista.





Change your trap to Shadow as the mice here has weakness to this element.

Meteorite Piece If you do not have enough of these cheese, you can either purchase it from Fort Rox - Cheese Shoppe for severalor buy it from Marketplace.









Once you have the Howlite , I suggest you to use the 'Retreat' button to return to the Day.









4. Build your first Ballista

Adventure: Discover the Source of Howlite Build the Basic Ballista





With your first Howlite , you can now build the Basic Ballista, which costs:

1 Howlite and 30,000 gold







Also repair your wall during the Day, before you enter the Night.









5. Build defenses more using Howlite

Adventure: Discover the Source of Howlite Dig the Small Moat Build the Howlite Wall





What is next is to repeat the process to get more Howlite from the Night mice enough to build defenses that exclusively cost Howlite.





These two are a must to progress your adventure book:

The Small Moat costs:

10 Howlite and 30,000 gold





The Howlite Wall costs:

15 Howlite and 45,000 gold







The following is optional, but still nice to have:





The Silver Ballista costs:

25 Howlite and 45,000 gold











6. Build Cannon using 5 Bloodstone

Adventure: Discover the Source of Bloodstone Collect Bloodstone Build the Small Cannon





Now that you have stronger defenses, you can last more during the Night, probably even reaching Midnight or Pitch phase.





If you reach Pitch phase, switch your trap to Arcane as the mice during this phase is weak to the element.





The target is to get 5 Bloodstone . Since going to the night requires you to start from the Twilight phase, probably it is best to hunt during the Night until your wall breaks.





If your wall crumbles before you get enough Bloodstone , you can keep the stone until you have 5 to build the necessary Small Cannon, or you can build any other optional defenses to last more during the Night.





The Small Cannon costs:

5 Bloodstone , 20 Howlite and 3,000 gold









Adventure: Survive the Night and Defeat the Monster Make it through the night and reach Dawn Catch Monster of the Meteor





The more you build your defenses during the Day, the more you can last more during the Night.

The more you can last more during the Night, the better the materials you can gather to build defenses during the Day.

Repeat this process until your wall can survive the Night til the Dawn phase.





Dawn Guardian Mouse The way the mouse damage your wall stays the same at first, however with miss of the Monster, the damage of every mouse in the area is multiplied by additional number, for example, as you miss one Monster, the damage ofincreases from 3 to 6. Second miss, will make it to be 9, 12 and so on.





Dawn Dust These two mice drop the, which are the materials to craft new Traps:





Monster Of The Meteor Mouse Other materials required to craft each of the trap above are dropped byat low rate:

















Fort Rox Treasure Map The Core and Console is a rare drop fromeven if it is dusted. Based on Horntracker, the drop rate is 12% for normal map, and 25% for dusted map. Each chest can only contain one of the Portal items.

















Fort Rox Portal Projector With thein hand, you can activate the Portal via the HUD during the Dawn phase.

Bear in mind that the Portal is one-time use , as it will be destroyed to open the Portal.





The Portal is also similar to Zugzwang's Tower which means that once you go in there’s no coming back to buy items or craft things, so be sure to have everything prepared before you go in, which is as follows:





This cheese is required to hunt the boss.





It is highly recommended to have at least 10 of this, as with each piece of the cheese the boss steals, it gets weaker by 10%.

Which means that your 10th try is a 100% catch. So do not waste Portal pieces by being too low on it!





- Your best Arcane

Simply as the boss is weak to this element.





- Your best Charm

There are many options here, but any High Luck Charm or Regal Charm might be useful.

Although if you want to 100% catch it at the first try, you can always use Ultimate Charm , even though not recommended.





The following is the cost:

1,200,000 gold

1 Meteoric Core Fragments

10 Bloodstone

60 Howlite





In addition, you will also get which is required to open up a new place for you to hunt: Queso River

And in this place, you can upgrade your new Meteor Prison Core Trap to be Ember Prison Core Trap .









Preparation for next

If this is your first time clearing Fort Rox, then the next area to visit is Queso River. I will do a guide for this area next week or so. Stay tune! =)
