To earn the maximum payout of 1,200 Study Scrolls in Last Asylum: Plague: Plague, you must reach the final milestone chests during the weekly Alliance Duel event. Instead of spending resources daily to secure partial rewards, hoard your speedups, recruitment vouchers, and stamina items until their corresponding themed days go live.
Study Scrolls are an essential bottleneck for high-level lab research, providing permanent boosts to squad attributes, march capacity, and gathering speed. Unlocking them without spending real money requires concentrating your assets exclusively on days where you can clear all nine personal chest tiers.
Alliance Duel Milestone Chest Tiers
Alliance Duel personal rewards are distributed across nine daily chest tiers based on individual point totals. Lower tiers yield basic consumables, while Study Scrolls are concentrated in the final tiers.
| Milestone Tiers | Primary Activity Needed | Key Reward Yields |
|---|---|---|
| Chests 1–3 | Baseline participation and resource gathering | Basic speedup crates, standard resources |
| Chests 4–6 | Moderate speedup usage and daily task quotas | Diamonds, hero fragments |
| Chests 7–9 | Full themed inventory bursts and active multipliers | 1,200 Study Scrolls, advanced development items |
Stockpiling and Pre-Event Preparation
Consuming speedups or recruitment items outside of an active scoring window prevents you from hitting top-tier milestones. To build a sufficient reserve between event cycles:
- Hold universal and category speedups: Stop speeding up general construction, troop training, or research during unranked periods.
- Save recruitment tokens and hero EXP: Keep all recruitment vouchers and hero experience books in your bag until the designated hero advancement stage begins.
- Queue long-duration projects early: Start high-tier building upgrades and multi-day research projects two to three days in advance so their timers complete immediately after the relevant duel stage resets.
- Bank stamina consumables: Retain stamina-refill items for stages that reward clearing map objectives, radar missions, and infected threats.
Daily Scoring Themes and Task Alignment
Each stage of the Alliance Duel awards points for specific base-development actions. Focus your inventory spending on the matching day to maximize point-to-item efficiency.
Construction and Technology Days
Do not start and finish massive projects entirely with speedups on the day of the event. Instead, time your pre-queued laboratory research and facility upgrades to finish right after reset. Once collected, spend your saved construction and research speedups to finish secondary queues, claiming maximum points at minimal inventory cost.
Hero Growth and Troop Training Days
Spend saved recruitment vouchers and hero EXP items during the hero advancement stage. Invest experience primarily into heroes used in your active march squads rather than spreading points across unused roster slots.
For troop training stages, promote existing lower-tier units to your highest unlocked tier instead of training new units from level one. Unit promotion requires fewer speedups and resources per point earned, offering a superior conversion rate toward the final chest tiers.
Maximizing Points with Tech and Active Buffs
Point multipliers significantly lower the raw resource requirements needed to reach the 1,200 Study Scroll threshold.
- Alliance Duel Research Tree: Prioritize unlocking nodes within the Alliance Duel research tree in your laboratory. These nodes grant permanent percentage increases to points earned across all duel tasks.
- Score-Boosting Items: Activate personal score-boosting cards or alliance-wide duel buffs immediately before completing major construction queues, collecting research, or conducting mass unit promotions.
When to Spend and When to Hold
Before spending items on any duel day, check the point requirement for chest nine and calculate your available inventory.
Adopt an all-or-nothing approach:
- If your hoard can reach Chest 9: Activate your score buffs, finish your queued projects, and spend your speedups until the final chest is unlocked.
- If your hoard falls short of Chest 9: Complete only your free daily tasks, claim early baseline chests, and save your remaining speedups for the next cycle. Stopping mid-track exhausts your inventory without awarding the 1,200 Study Scrolls.
