In Summoners War Chronicles, players are continuously seeking ways to gather and mine essential materials more efficiently. Introducing the Exploration NPC Lizardman, a game-changing feature that allows your monsters to automatically loot materials on your behalf, saving you valuable time and effort.
In this article, we will give a comprehensive guide to help you understand the Exploration NPC Lizardman feature, detailing how to utilize this powerful asset to optimize your gameplay.
Meet the Exploration NPC Lizardman
The Exploration NPC Lizardman can be found in every region of the game, including Rudelin, Tesca, Ayah, Flurence, and Rukurangma. You have probably encounter him from one of the tutorial stories of the game.
To find him, just go to the nearest town and you’ll see an “Exploration Caption” on the top left corner of the screen. Clicking that will automatically lead you to the nearest Lizardman.
Through Lizardman, you can send a minimum of three monsters with a combined power of 30,000 to gather materials of your choice. This enables you to continue using your monsters while they collect resources for you, increasing the overall efficiency of your gameplay.
While the default settings require three monsters and a total power of 30,000, you can significantly increase your material loot by changing the difficulty. By doing so, you will need to meet a power requirement of up to 150,000 and can send up to seven monsters to gather materials up to 6 hours.
Remember, each map has a specific element, so ensure that you send the appropriate element monsters for each exploration. For example, only Water-element monsters can be sent to explore Rudelin materials – so you have to strengthen a team of elemental monsters to efficiently use this feature.
Squad List
You can send up to 3 squad in the game, two of them are FREE and the other one requires you to unlock it for 3,000 Crystals.
