To reach 400,000 points in a RAID: Shadow Legends Clan vs Clan (CvC) tournament without exhausting excessive energy or gems, hoard high-yield non-energy resources between events and spend them across specific high-point categories during the 48-hour tournament window.
Reaching 400k points is most impactful during Personal Rewards CvC matches, which reward high milestone tiers with reaction accessories and Mythical gear. Executing this push requires planning your champion development, Forge crafting, Arena battles, and boss keys around tournament timing.
Stockpile and Invest Skill Tomes
Booking champion skills offers the highest point return for the least time spent during CvC. Save your books exclusively for tournament windows rather than applying them immediately upon acquiring champions.
- Legendary Skill Tomes: Award 3,000 points per book. Applying 20 Legendary Tomes yields an instant 60,000 points.
- Epic Skill Tomes: Award 1,000 points per book.
Reserve tomes for champions you have already elevated to 6-star rank and plan to gear for immediate progression in Clan Boss, Hydra, or live Arena. Avoid spending rare or epic tomes on unused champions unless closing a narrow point gap in the final hours of the match. Whenever possible, align your skill upgrades with potion ascensions and rank promotions during concurrent Champion Training events to stack reward milestones.
Craft Forge Gear and Apply Glyphs
The Forge allows you to generate hundreds of thousands of points without consuming campaign or dungeon energy. Focus on high-tier sets like Perception, Resilience, and craftable Faction Wars gear.
| Crafting / Upgrade Action | Approximate Point Yield | Optimization Rule |
|---|---|---|
| Legendary 6-Star Item | ~500 points per item | Equip Rank and Rarity charms to maximize 6-star Legendary odds. |
| Epic 5-Star or 6-Star Item | 150–330 points per item | Craft Perception in bulk; immediately sell flat-stat pieces for silver. |
| High-Tier Glyphs (5★–6★) | 150–300 points per use | Apply only to maxed Level 16 artifacts on core champions. |
| Low-Tier Glyphs (1★–3★) | Low (Cumulative total) | Burn capped low-tier glyphs across secondary or Faction War gear. |
Sell unviable gear during crafting to maintain your silver reserves. If an Artifact Enhancement event runs alongside CvC, take your best newly crafted pieces to Level 12 or Level 16 to turn that reclaimed silver into additional tournament points.
Maximize Arena Token Regeneration
Arena tokens regenerate naturally throughout the 48-hour tournament, providing over 40,000 baseline points if you consistently clear your pools without letting tokens cap.
- Classic Arena: Competing in Gold IV and Gold V awards 400 to 500 points per victory. Clear easy defenses every time your tokens refresh.
- Tag Team Arena: Push into Silver or Gold tiers before CvC begins to maximize your point yield per battle. Spend your daily battle allotments on winnable matchups, reserving gem refreshes for the second day if favorable defenses remain available.
- Great Hall Upgrades: Save your collected Gold Medals between tournaments. Upgrading a Great Hall bonus to Level 10 triggers a massive single-action point payout comparable to booking champions.
Run Stage 20 or Hard Stage 10 Dungeons
Dungeon farming should supplement your point totals rather than serve as your primary strategy. When burning energy for points:
- Target Stage 20: Standard Stage 20 artifact dungeons provide the best balance of points per energy spent.
- Consider Hard Stage 10: Hard Mode Stage 10 provides superior endgame gear and Mythical drop chances at a slightly higher energy cost per point.
- Prioritize Spider: Spider remains the fastest dungeon to cycle, allowing well-tuned turn-meter control and HP Burn teams to finish runs in under 20 seconds.
- Avoid Minotaur: Minotaur yields negligible tournament points compared to artifact dungeons and Potion Keeps; complete mastery farming outside of CvC windows.
Coordinate Clan Boss and Hydra Key Timing
Daily and weekly boss keys yield massive point chunks without costing account energy.
- Demon Lord Clan Boss: Run your daily Ultra-Nightmare, Nightmare, and Brutal keys immediately after the CvC tournament starts to bank early points for your clan.
- Hydra: Do not use your weekly Hydra keys on the weekly reset day if CvC opens later that cycle. Hold your keys until the tournament goes live. A single top-chest run in Ultra-Nightmare or Nightmare Hydra generates tens of thousands of points. Check your clan's objective board before running Hydra battles to take advantage of any active point multipliers.
