Elemental stones
Amulets inserted into a card directly affect your creature's battle skills, making it resilient, deadly, or agile. To improve amulets and increase your card's rank, you need elemental stones. They can be obtained in the process of developing your Castle.

Catacombs

After level 14 you gain the ability to send a party to the Catacombs for elemental stones. Gather a squad of adventurers and explore the tombs of ancient kings. Fight other players in the darkness of dungeons and steal their loot.

Expedition launch
Depending on the level of the Catacombs, you can send from one to three simultaneous expeditions. An expedition of level 2 and 3 allows your squad to go even deeper and collect even more elemental stones. You need to assemble a separate squad for each expedition.

Squad
Choose 10 cards and send them to the dungeons to look for treasures. The deck strength should match the value specified in the Catacombs info if you want to collect 100% of elemental stones. If the deck strength is significantly lower, you will collect less resources.

Elemental stones
Right after the expedition launch, your squad will descend to the dungeon where it can attack other players and take their elemental stones to fill your sack until the expedition is over. If the strength of the deck is lower than that in the Catacombs info, there will be fewer elemental stones for each battle.

Attempts
While the expedition timer is active, you can spend attempts on attacking other players and stealing their elemental stones. Each attempt has recovery time. When your sack is 100% full with elemental stones, your squad will automatically begin the return to the city.

Return
Now the elemental stones that you have collected can be attacked and stolen by other players. You can speed up your squad for crystals or wait until the timer is done. If your squad gets attacked, they can bring back not less than 50% of the sack.

Open - applications are accepted automatically if an applicant's rating is not lower than required and if there are empty slots for new members.

Experience, rating, and development level
The experience affects the position of the clan in the TOP 100. It is a combination of the clan rating and development level. The better your clan is developed, and the more often it wins Clan Wars, the more experience it has. The development level grows with every levelup of clan towers, and the clan rating is earned in clan events.

Leagues and Clan Wars
Leagues determine the number of clan members that is required for registration in the weekly Clan War.

Summoning Portal

The Summoning Portal is the basic method of acquiring new Cards. Find three Soul shards, add them to slots, and begin the Ritual. When the Ritual is over, you will receive a new Card or an upgraded Shard. The higher the levels of Shards you use, the higher the chance of getting a good Card.

Gather Resources
To perform the ritual, you need mana and soul shards. You can get the latter in the Shard Obelisk, as a reward for completed quests, in other players' castles, in chests, or in the store.

Ritual and reward
You can insert three shards into the slots for the summoning ritual. Before the ritual start, you will learn the chance of getting a card or a new soul shard. When the ritual is over, you will get a new card, a duplicate of one of the cards you already have in your deck, or an upgraded soul shards. The rarity of the summoned card depends on the rarity of the shards you use in the ritual.

The ritual is suspended
When enemies attack your castle, they know that your ritual is in progress and can try their luck at stealing one of your shards. The ritual is suspended if your shard is stolen. To renew the ritual, you have to either win back your shard or insert a new one of the same rarity and level. If you insert a shard of different rarity and level into the empty slot, the ritual will start all over again.

Soul shards
If you have obtained a new shard but there are no empty slots in the Portal inventory, the new shard will replace that with lower level or rarity - or will be dispelled if there are no weaker shards in the inventory.

Card pieces
Card pieces are obtained from various chests and rewards, for example, they can be found in island chests or in the Relic Chest. When the required number of pieces is collected, you can create a unique Uncommon card in the Portal. Later you can upgrade the rarity of this card using pieces, even up to Legendary. The higher the rarity, the better the card stats and stronger its ability effect. When such a card is dispelled, its pieces won't be returned to you.

Shop
You don't have to wait until cards fall out of the ritual. It's possible to purchase cards that are available in the Shop. The assortment is updated every day.

Catalog
In the catalog, there are all cards that you can get from the Portal with the help of rituals. The cards that are already in your deck will be marked as such. If you dispel such a card, it will become available for acquisition during a ritual again.
