What is Desert Artifacts & Why It Matters
- Desert Artifacts is a Season 3 event in Last War: Survival. It’s one of the more resource-efficient events for obtaining Weapon Shards, Universal Overlord Shards, and high value items.
- The event introduces a mechanic called greenification, where parts of the map or artifact zones are turned into green tiles which make them easier to clear or provide more rewards. Using skills like “Double Greenification” improves your coverage.
Greenification & Recon Plane Tips
- Recon Planes are used to explore map tiles and find artifacts and ruins. Skills that allow more area scanned (e.g. Double Greenification) make your recon more efficient.
- Use your plane to find Ruins / Artifact sites, which often contain higher rewards. Prioritize activating green tiles around them to reduce movement costs and time.
Optimizing Shard & Artifact Farming
- Collect Weapon Shards via artifacts chests & seasonal event rewards. These are often more efficient than other sources if you plan well.
- Timing matters: during event windows, use boosts, maybe alliance bonuses, to maximize your contribution and get better loot.
Playing the Event as Free-to-Play or Low Spend
- Don’t spend all your recon stamina early; spread out scanning to cover more over time.
- Use alliance support to help locate artifact zones; sharing info helps reduce wasted moves.
- Avoid investing heavily in premium features unless the return is clear: prioritize events that give permanent power (shards, gear, heroes) over cosmetic or temporary boosts.
