How to get all rewards
Each stage can be obtained for [b]45,000[/b] mission points, where every new stage obtained will give you a new reward. [quote][b]Please note:[/b] After finishing a stage, you need to collect the reward manually. To do this, click on your name in-game, go to “Enter the Serpent” and click the “Get Reward” button.[/quote] You’re able to earn mission points in [b]Ground Battles[/b] at Rank III or above in Arcade, Realistic and Simulator Battles. The number of mission points to complete a stage depends on the game mode and the maximum Rank of the vehicle that you use in battle. There’s a multiplier for earning mission points, which is shown in the task description in-game. You can also earn mission points by using event vehicles that are Rank I and II. Event vehicles that can be used have the name of the event that they were obtainable in on their stat card.
