Alliance Duel (AD) · Last Asylum: Plague guide

What it is

Every week your alliance is matched with another alliance of a similar level. From Monday to Saturday you both earn points by doing that day’s activities. Every point you earn counts twice: once for you, and once for your alliance’s total.

You: Your own points fill your daily chests and count toward your weekly reward.
Each day: The alliance with more points that day wins it, and its win points.
The week: The alliance with more win points wins. There are 13 to play for.

How the week works

MondayEnhance Raven1 win point
TuesdayTerritory Development2 win points
WednesdayTech Research2 win points
ThursdayEnhance Heroes2 win points
FridayWar Preparation or Full Development I2 win points
SaturdayRaid the Enemy or Full Development II4 win points

Each day closes at 00:00 server time. The game takes a few moments to settle the result, and nothing scores Duel points while it does.
Sunday has no phase: it’s the week’s result. To be matched for next week, your alliance needs more than 20 members on Sunday and a place in the server’s top 32 by Might.
You can take part from Sanctuary 10.
Friday and Saturday come in two versions: Full Development I and II, or War Preparation and Raid the Enemy. Your event screen shows which one you have.
Change alliance mid-week and your points stop counting for your new alliance that day. Your own chests still fill.

What scores each day

Pick a day. Point values are the game’s, before your Duel research bonuses.

My server has Raid weeksFriday and Saturday are War Preparation and Raid the Enemy

“Today” follows the game’s server time (UTC−2), so it changes when the Duel does.

Monday: Enhance Raven

What’s in it for you

Your own points open up to nine reward chests every day, shown in the game as Phase 1 Points to Phase 9 Points. They’re yours whether your alliance wins or loses.

The rewards and their points are the same every day of the week. Phases 1 to 3 are open to everyone. Phases 4 to 6 need the Super Rewards research, and 7 to 9 need Top Rewards, both in the Alliance Duel research tree. Without them, those chests stay shut however many points you score.

Reach 180,000 points in a day and you also get the Daily Participation Reward:

25Antitoxin Level Supply (SR) ×25
25Grain Level Supply (SR) ×25
25Timber Level Supply (SR) ×25
25Herb Level Supply (SR) ×25
5Resource Supply (General) ×5

Critical action

Research Top Rewards

Phases 7 to 9 are the best chests of the day, and they stay shut until you research Top Rewards. Score all the points you like: without it, that loot is gone, every day. Those three chests alone give 800 Study Scrolls a day.

Here’s exactly what to research in the Alliance Duel research tree, drawn like the game shows it. Work from the top down: the gold numbers are the level each one needs (MAX means all the way). Top Rewards itself needs Research Lab 20, so keep your Research Lab moving too.

Super Rewards first. It opens three more rewards every day for 1,150 Study Scrolls from scratch.
Then Arena Expert. It boosts every kind of Duel point, so each level pays off every day.
Research on Wednesday. Study Scrolls score 300 Duel points each on Tech Research day, on top of the research itself.

Winning and losing

Separate from your chests. These depend on how your alliance does.

Save it for the right day

When you do something matters as much as what you do.

Wrong day

You finish a building with speed-ups on a Monday.

You get the building. That’s all.

Duel day

You finish the same building with the same speed-ups on Tuesday, while your whole alliance does the same.

You get the building, 50 Duel points per minute of speed-up, progress toward your chests, and your alliance takes the day.

When each item scores
Item	Used for	Scores on	Fine to use now when
Construction speed-ups	Finishing buildings	Tuesday, Friday, Saturday	A build you need right away, like a Sanctuary requirement.
Research speed-ups	Finishing research	Wednesday, Friday, Saturday	Research that unlocks something you need now.
Training speed-ups	Training and promoting soldiers	Friday, Saturday	When you need troops to defend.
Soldier promotions	Raising soldiers to a tent’s max level	Friday	When you need stronger troops right away.
Healing speed-ups	Healing wounded soldiers	Saturday	When you’re under attack and need your troops back.
Raven Gear Chests	Raven gear	Wednesday	Hardly ever: the big ones are worth a fortune on their day.
UR and SSR hero shards	Starring up heroes	Thursday	Rarely. A few days’ wait costs you nothing.
Awaken shards	Awakening heroes	Thursday	Rarely.
Recruit Tickets	Recruiting heroes	Thursday	When a limited hero is on offer and won’t last.
Survivor recruits	Recruiting survivors	Tuesday	Rarely.
Raven Essence	Upgrading your Raven	Monday	Rarely.
Stamina	Hunting Blights	Monday	When it’s full, so it doesn’t go to waste.
Study Scrolls	Duel research	Wednesday	Research you can start straight away; the research matters more than the points.
UR Caravan and UR Covert Operation	Big one-off rewards	Tuesday, Saturday	If you’d lose it by waiting.

Common mistakes

Spending things before their day
A Lv.7 Raven Gear Chest is worth 810,000 points on Wednesday and nothing on Monday. The item is gone either way.
Fix: Check the day before you open, use or speed up anything big.
Stopping just short of a reward
549,000 points reaches Phase 2; 550,000 reaches Phase 3.
Fix: Use the reward calculator below and top up the last few points.
Not knowing some rewards are locked
The Phase 4 to 9 rewards stay locked without Super Rewards and Top Rewards research, however many points you score.
Fix: Research them in your Research Lab. They’re worth every Study Scroll.
Scoring alone
The day goes to the alliance with more points. Your big day on the wrong day doesn’t win anything.
Fix: Do your big pushes on the days your alliance pushes.
Using everything early in the week
Saturday is worth 4 win points, twice any other day, and it scores speed-ups of every kind.
Fix: Keep some speed-ups and your Caravan and Covert Operation for Saturday.
Mixing up your rewards and the alliance win
Your point rewards depend on your points only. Winning the day or week is a separate reward on top.
Fix: Fill your point rewards every day, win or lose.
Chasing points at any cost
Past your last reward, extra points only help the alliance total and the ranking.
Fix: Push hard when the day is close. When it’s won or lost, keep the rest for next week.

For leaders (R4 and R5)

How to run Alliance Duel for your alliance

Set expectations by level. Ask everyone for all their loot every day: at least Phase 3 (550K), and Phase 9 once they have the research. Ask more of the players who can give more, and say it plainly.
Post the day’s priorities before reset, so people know what to use and what to keep.
Talk about saving early in the week, not on the day. Chests and shards spent on Monday are gone.
Look at the week, not one day. A member who scores modestly every day is worth more than one who spikes once. Someone who scores nothing for days is a different conversation.
Pick your battles. If a day is clearly lost, say so and save the effort for a day you can win. Saturday is worth 4.
Be fair to low levels. A Sanctuary 12 player can’t score like a Sanctuary 28 one, and a member who’s pushed too hard just leaves.

Today’s post for alliance chat

AD Monday: Enhance Raven, worth 1 win point.
Best points: Complete Falcon Quest once (10,000), Consume 1 Raven Essence (2,500), Get 1 UR Epigraph Shard for each Epigraph Chest opened (1,125).
Everyone: get all your loot first (Phase 3, 6 or 9, depending on your research). Anything more wins us the day.
Save your construction speed-ups, ur caravan, ur covert operation for Tuesday.

This follows the day you’ve picked above. Edit it to suit your alliance.

The unsaid agreement

When you join an alliance, there’s an agreement nobody says out loud: you play Alliance Duel, on the right days, with everyone else. That’s how the alliance wins, earns its rewards and grows. It’s a team effort.
