Tiles Survive!! Spooky Market Bat Stumps Spending Priority Guide

During the Tiles Survive!! Halloween Bash, spend your limited Bat Stumps on high-value, non-farmable progression items—specifically Universal Legendary Hero Shards and permanent event stat buffs—before investing in gear refinement or speedups. Standard base resources and non-functional cosmetics should be skipped entirely.

Bat Stump Priority Tiers

Because Bat Stumps are capped by fixed daily event tasks and milestone rewards, your total purchasing power is limited across the event. Once the seasonal timer expires, the Spooky Market closes, meaning every spent stump must count toward long-term power.

Priority Tier	Item Category	Primary Benefit	Recommended Target
Top Priority	Universal Legendary Hero Shards	Guarantees star ascension for key combat heroes	All players regardless of base level
Top Priority	Exclusive Permanent Stat Items	Account-wide percentage combat or gathering buffs	Active mid-game and endgame players
High Value	Reforge Hammers & Refinement Items	Upgrades equipment substats on high-tier gear	Players pushing competitive combat
Situational	Long-Duration Universal Speedups	Accelerates high-cost research and construction	Players pushing event point milestones
Avoid	Raw Base Resources (Food, Oil, Wood)	Short-term materials gathered freely from the map	None
Avoid	Non-Stat Cosmetic Skins & Decor	Visual customization with no gameplay benefit	None

What to Buy First

Universal Legendary Hero Shards offer the most reliable return in the Spooky Market. Hero ascension represents a major bottleneck for clearing higher threat sectors, and universal shards bypass recruitment drop rates to let you directly star up core heroes.

Pair these with any event-exclusive items offering permanent percentage increases to troop lethality, health, or construction speed. Unlike flat consumables, percentage-based attributes scale alongside your base as your overall stats increase, delivering compounded value over time.

Secondary Purchases and Spending Traps

Once top-tier shards and permanent relics are secured, allocate remaining currency based on current account bottlenecks:

Reforge Hammers and Refinement Materials: Hero equipment substat optimization becomes increasingly resource-intensive in later tiers. Event stores provide a reliable source of reforge items that normally appear in small quantities during standard play.
Large Universal Speedups: If equipment refinement is not an immediate priority, large-denomination universal speedups help push extensive facility upgrades or bank points during competitive alliance milestones. Avoid spending event currency on small five-minute or fifteen-minute increments.
Resource Traps: Never spend Bat Stumps on raw wood, food, or fuel. These resources regenerate passively through base production and can be farmed continuously from map tiles without spending rare seasonal currency.
Cosmetics: Inspect event skins before buying. If an item offers purely visual flair without active march or passive defense attributes, skip it in favor of account progression.

The Delayed-Allocation Spending Strategy

To avoid running out of currency before securing high-tier items, hold your Bat Stumps until the second-to-last day of the Halloween Bash.

Accumulate all daily task and milestone currency throughout the event without making daily purchases.
Tally your total Bat Stump balance near the end of the event window.
Purchase your essential Universal Legendary Hero Shards and permanent stat items first.
Check remaining milestone achievements if you fall just short of another shard bundle.
Spend any leftover balance on refinement materials or universal speedups so no currency is lost when the shop closes.
