Revision - battle theater - Roco Kingdom: World Wiki

Overview

Battle Theater (对战剧场) is a solo PVE gauntlet mode in Roco Kingdom: World. The mode tests a player's ability to build versatile teams and adapt to escalating challenges across 12 stages. Unlike the cooperative Strange Beast Flora or the endgame Territory Trial, Battle Theater is strictly a solo experience. It is the primary progression benchmark for players who prefer to measure their strength independently of group content.

Structure

Battle Theater is divided into 4 major stages, and each major stage contains 3 sub-stages, for a total of 12 stages. Difficulty escalates progressively from the first sub-stage to the last. Enemy spirits in later stages have significantly higher base stats, unique modifiers, and more aggressive AI patterns. Players must clear each sub-stage sequentially within a major stage before advancing to the next.

Roco Kingdom: World combat and character interface

Major Stage	Sub-Stages	Difficulty	Max Stars
Stage 1	1-1, 1-2, 1-3	Introductory	9
Stage 2	2-1, 2-2, 2-3	Moderate	9
Stage 3	3-1, 3-2, 3-3	Hard	9
Stage 4	4-1, 4-2, 4-3	Expert	9
Total	12 sub-stages	-	36

Scoring System

Each sub-stage awards up to 3 stars based on two performance metrics: the number of turns taken to achieve victory, and the number of spirits that survived the encounter. The maximum achievable score across all 12 stages is 36 stars.

Stars	Requirement
1 Star	Clear the stage (victory regardless of turns or losses)
2 Stars	Clear within the recommended turn count with at least half your team surviving
3 Stars	Clear quickly with all spirits surviving; requires optimal play and strong team composition

Stars are the primary currency earned from Battle Theater. Higher star counts unlock access to better rewards in the Battle Theater shop. Players can replay completed stages to improve their star rating without losing previously earned stars.

Stage Modifiers

Each stage has unique modifiers that force players to adapt their strategy. These modifiers define the tactical puzzle of each encounter and prevent a single team composition from sweeping the entire gauntlet.

Modifier	Effect	Counter Strategy
Halved Energy Gain	Players generate only 5 energy per turn instead of the standard 10	Bring spirits with low-cost skills; prioritize efficiency over raw power
Non-Super-Effective Reduction	Attacks that are not super-effective deal significantly reduced damage	Build a team with broad type coverage to always hit for super-effective damage
Speed Inversion	Slower spirits act first, reversing the normal speed priority	Use tanky, low-speed spirits that normally act last but benefit from going first under this modifier
Healing Suppression	All healing effects (skills, items, traits) are reduced by 50%	Focus on offense and shields rather than sustain-based strategies
Enhanced Counter	Enemy spirits counter-attack every time they are hit by a physical move	Use special attackers instead of physical attackers to avoid triggering counters

Modifiers are displayed before entering each sub-stage, giving players time to adjust their team. Some modifiers stack in later stages, combining two or more effects simultaneously.

Rewards

Stars earned in Battle Theater can be exchanged at the Battle Theater shop for a variety of valuable resources.

Reward	Star Cost	Description
Fruit Cores	Varies	Essential materials for spirit skill development and ability unlocking
Cultivation Materials	Varies	Stat upgrade and nature correction items for spirit development
Growth XP Boosters	Varies	Consumable items that grant direct experience to spirits
Exclusive Title	36 Stars (all)	Special player title for achieving a perfect 36-star clear

Fruit Cores are the most sought-after reward, as they are required in large quantities for high-level spirit skill development and are relatively scarce from other sources.

Strategy Tips

Read the stage modifier before entering. Building a team blind is the most common reason for failed attempts
Maintain at least 3 to 4 fully-leveled teams covering different element types so you can adapt to any modifier combination
Prioritize clearing quickly over surviving with full health; the turn-count threshold is often the harder requirement for 3-star clears
For stages with the Halved Energy Gain modifier, bring spirits whose core skills cost 3 energy or less
Replay earlier stages for 3-star improvements before pushing into harder content; the cumulative star difference adds up significantly for shop purchases
The Expert-tier stages (4-1 through 4-3) often combine multiple modifiers; prepare dedicated teams for each sub-stage rather than using a single lineup
