Join a raid
- Watch the Raid countdown in the mode bar.
- Open the raid panel when its join period is active. The recorded panel shows a one-minute join window.
- Check the boss tab and difficulty, then choose Join. A Leave action is visible if you need to withdraw before the start.
- Keep the intended Army lineup ready; watch the current raid state when the fight begins.
- Read the result and claim/inspect each reward rather than equating a fight appearance with a particular equipment drop.
Normal versus Hard
| Hard label | Displayed modifier |
|---|---|
| Rewards | ×3 |
| Boss health | ×1.3 |
| Boss damage | ×1.4 |
Those are the visible mode labels, not an assertion that a weak team always earns more by choosing Hard. The panel shows 25%, 50%, 75%, Kill reward milestones and states that tiers add up. MVP has a +30 raid-currency note. Check how the current panel qualifies your contribution; these labels alone are not a complete personal-DPS reward formula.
Gear is a separate qualification
Forge states Normal: the kill; Hard: 75%+ for gear, plus guild-war tiers 3 and 5. An early raid milestone therefore must not be assumed to guarantee equipment. Gear farming separates ordinary piece shares and Mythic raid-kill labels.
What Auto Raid buys
The official Auto Raid pass says it joins raids and returns afterwards. That is convenience; the manual Join button is visible. It does not state that it bypasses reward eligibility or guarantees a win. War Drums advertises immediate ×2/×3 and exclusive ×4 battle speed; viewing speed is distinct from card ATK or a boss reward tier.
Use gamepasses before paying, equipment for rewards and bosses to distinguish the same name across modes.
