Ardell Chase Guide, Planner & Calendar · 10 Aug – 30 Aug 2026

Ardell Chase Guide

This full guide of the Ardell Chase event shows the Tournaments Calendar, the full list of events and the Chase Leaderboard, and lets you track the progress of your Crowns.

Win Crowns in Tournaments to then get a Legendary Invoker from the Event Shop. You will gain Points for almost any action in-game, like upgrading Gear or defeating Bosses. Completing specific actions during related Tournaments will earn you x2 Points. You will also get extra rewards by placing 1st on your Local Leaderboard in a Tournament.

Remember, you can receive Points for specific actions any time while a Chase is live, but you will get x2 Points during specific Tournaments. You can still earn Points for a Chase Event after a Tournament has finished.

Ardell is a strong Legendary Eldrin Invoker — Water Element, Melee Attacker — and with a kit built for PvE content. He strips and steals enemy buffs, places a wide-scale DEF Down, moves a debuff off an ally and onto an enemy, and can utilize Mindworm and debuff extension on top of that.

Bosses that keep buffing themselves — Sakiel and Ulgorim for example — go down markedly faster once someone can take the buffs away, and a team-wide DEF Down is always useful in both Spires and Campaign. The debuff transfer is the secret weapon though: a debuff your healer would otherwise have to cleanse becomes the enemy's problem instead.

Ardell lives or dies based on his Accuracy — build this before anything else so his debuffs land.

Legendaries are always needed for the Spire, where the rewards are among the best in the game — so the Chase pays off even if he is not the Invoker you would have picked.

How the Ardell Chase Works

Missing a Tournament does not take you out of the running to complete a Chase! As long as the Chase is live, almost every action you take will earn Points, whether or not the matching Tournament is active. This means that if you summon a Destiny Star during an Invoker Summon Surge, you will earn double Points, but on any other day, you will still earn Points. So long as you're playing, all of your actions will count towards earning Crowns in the Chase!

Completing your Daily Quests and Clan Quests is extremely helpful, because it gives you Points towards all goals every day. It is especially important to do Arena battles daily, as it helps you progress through the Arena goals, which are quite challenging.

Ardell FAQ

How many Crowns do you need to get Ardell?

How many Tournaments run during the Ardell Chase?

19 Tournaments run during the Ardell Chase, and together they are worth 200 Crowns.

Can I see how many Tournaments are left?

Yes! The in-game Event Calendar will tell you which Tournaments are upcoming in the next 7 days, while the Calendar on this page will tell you all of the Tournaments in the Ardell Chase. Ardell Chase Calendar

How do I plan the Ardell Chase?

Open the Planner on this page. Set your account level, your Campaign and boss stages and what you hold, tick the Tournaments you will play, and it works out each day's Energy, what every Tournament pays, and whether you reach the 170 Crowns for Ardell.

Is the Ardell Chase worth playing?

It is. Ardell is a Legendary Water Melee Attacker from the Eldrin who strips and steals enemy buffs, applies DEF Down to the whole enemy side, moves a debuff from an ally onto an enemy, and extends the debuffs already in play.

He works especially well against Bosses that buff themselves — Sakiel and Ulgorim among them — and he needs Accuracy, levels in his buff-steal Skill, and enough durability to hold the frontline.

And Legendaries are always needed for the Spire, where the rewards are among the best in the game — so the Chase pays off even if he is not the Invoker you would have picked. Read Ardell The Torrent's full kit

Where does Ardell rank among Invokers?

You can check the Tier List, either in-game or on the Portal, to see where other players think Ardell stacks up. Keep in mind, you may have to wait until other players earn the Chase Invoker to get a proper idea of their placement in the Tier List! Invoker Tier List

Can I finish the Chase as free-to-play?

Yes, comfortably. Play every day, claim all of the free Energy, and complete every Daily Quest and Clan Quest. Earn your Points while the matching Tournament is running so they count double.

Should I play Arena every day?

Yes. Free Arena Tokens stop refilling once you are holding ten or more, so banking them wastes the ones you never receive. Up to 34 are handed out across a day — spend them all, every day.

Short of Stars for the Summon Goal?

Wild Stars count too! Collect Wild Stars from clearing Boss Stages and Campaign and then use them during Invoker Summon Surges. It's the best way to clear these Tournaments if you're playing free-to-play.

Not going to reach 170 Crowns in time?

If you've exhausted your resources from just playing the game and are a little short of a Tournament goal, consider getting a pack from the Shop to make up the difference. Remember you can earn some extra VIP Points if you do purchase via the Shop on the Portal.

How do I run a Chase Event free-to-play?

Save any rewards you earn from clearing the Spires and use them for the matching Tournament. Spires rewards should get you most of the way there to finishing at least one Tournament's Personal Reward track. How to Get Free Stars and Orbs How to Progress and Earn Free Rewards
