Maximize Champion Chase Points in RAID: Shadow Legends

To maximize your progression during a Champion Chase tournament in RAID: Shadow Legends, save your Ancient Shards until a 2x drop rate event runs concurrently with the tournament. Opening shards during this overlap doubles your chance of pulling Legendary champions while simultaneously generating event points, silver, and high-tier milestone rewards.

How Overlapping Events Boost Progress

Opening Ancient Shards outside of dedicated events consumes your resources without providing secondary progression rewards. When a 2x Ancient Shard event and a Champion Chase tournament are active at the same time, every shard pulled counts toward two distinct progression goals:

• 2x Summon Rate: Doubles the default baseline chance of pulling Epic and Legendary champions from Ancient Shards.
• Champion Chase Points: Grants tournament points based on the rarity of every champion you acquire, regardless of the source.
• Milestone Rewards: Yields fixed milestone payouts, such as liquid gold, silver, epic shards, and skill books, as your total point score rises.

Acquiring promotional champions (such as Mavara via creator links or promo codes) or pulling core roster champions like Criodan and Venomage provides immediate account value during these windows. Criodan offers crowd control utility for wave-clearing, while Venomage delivers poison damage essential for boss encounters and Clan Boss teams.

Step-by-Step Shard Management Strategy

Follow this sequence to ensure you reach high-value milestone tiers without exhausting your resource reserves unnecessarily:

1. Stockpile Shards: Do not spend Ancient Shards on non-event days. Hold all accumulated shards until both a 2x rate boost and a Champion Chase are active in the event hub.
2. Calculate Point Tiers: Check the active Champion Chase tournament rewards table. Identify the specific milestone target you want to reach, such as a Legendary Tome or specific skill book.
3. Open Shards in Batches: Summon shards only until you hit your intended milestone tier. Stop opening immediately after reaching your target to preserve remaining shards for future events.
4. Reserve Silver and Gold: Upgrading artifacts for newly pulled champions requires significant silver reserves. Maintain high currency balances before pulling so you can equip new units right away.
5. Evaluate Roster Gaps: Compare your new pulls against existing team compositions. Immediately invest energy and books into champions that fill specific missing roles in your Clan Boss, Dungeon, or Arena teams rather than spreading resources across your entire champion vault.
