The recent Halloween-themed updates in Anime Last Stands have introduced exciting new items and mechanics, with Rainbow Candy and the Sugar Rush Event at the center of it all. Here’s a detailed guide to help you understand and maximize these new features.
What is Rainbow Candy?
Rainbow Candy is a new special item used to access the Sugar Rush Event. You can craft it by combining:
- 15 Candy Bags or
- 5 Big Candy Bags
Once you have Rainbow Candy, you can use it to enter the new event and earn exclusive rewards.
The Sugar Rush Event
The Sugar Rush Event is a high-speed, optional mode for Midnight Hunt (Halloween Part 1). It dramatically changes the gameplay:
- Enemy Speed: +400% faster than normal
- Halloween Basket Rewards: +50% extra
- Starting Cash: $15,000, earning $2,000 per kill
- Farms: Disabled for this mode
Entry Cost: 1 Rainbow Candy per run.
Rewards:
- Win: Guaranteed Trick Candy Bag
- Lose: You still keep what you earned
This mode is designed for players seeking faster-paced gameplay and bigger rewards than the standard Midnight Hunt.
What Are Trick Candy Bags?
Trick Candy Bags are similar to Big Candy Bags but are more difficult to obtain. They contain high-value rewards such as new skins and items, making them a valuable target for event participants.
How to Get Candy Bags
Candy Bags are automatically added to your inventory. You can farm them by playing any of the game’s modes:
- Story Mode
- Raids
- Boss Rush
- Dungeons
For higher efficiency, infinite modes like Candy Bowl (Halloween Part 2) are the best places to farm Candy Bags consistently.
New Skins in the Event
Several skins were introduced in this update:
- Frieren, Ichigo, Goku: Only obtainable through Candy Bags, cannot be summoned elsewhere.
- Teto: A paid Bundle-only skin, similar to Miku.
Farming Candy Bags increases your chances to unlock these exclusive skins.
Candy Corn and Drop Boosts
- Candy Corn: Acts as EXP food for your units, helping level them up quickly.
- Drop Boosts: Increase the likelihood of obtaining units from drops but do not affect capsules, vials, banners, or in-game currency.
Candy Wrappers
Candy Wrappers are the new Halloween currency used in the Event Shop, where you can exchange them for various exclusive items.
Tips for Maximizing Rewards
- Farm Candy Bags in Infinite Modes: Focus on Candy Bowl or similar gamemodes for efficient farming.
- Craft Rainbow Candy Wisely: Save up enough Candy Bags to ensure multiple entries into the Sugar Rush Event.
- Prioritize Trick Candy Bags: Winning the Sugar Rush Event guarantees these high-value rewards.
- Collect Candy Wrappers: Exchange them in the Event Shop for cosmetics, pets, or other seasonal rewards.
By understanding Rainbow Candy, Trick Candy Bags, and the Sugar Rush mechanics, you can optimize your Halloween event progress and unlock all the new skins, currencies, and rewards in Anime Last Stands. Keep farming efficiently, and make the most of this limited-time event!
