# Battle: Dragma
## Overview
Send your Heroes to battle Dragma in 12-hour runs to **collect rare materials** used for **crafting gear sets**. Survival depends on **DEF**, a new stat that scales with your Hero’s level and equipped gear. Unlike Underling battles, Heroes **can die** if they’re not ready. Each zone drops the materials needed to craft stronger gear and progress into further zones.

💪 **Underleveled? No problem!**
The [**Speed Training** ](/archive/season-2-dragma/phase-2-dragma/event-speed-training.md)event (available during **Phase 2**) is a quick way for underleveled Heroes to catch up and get back in the fight. Make use of the extra push while it lasts.
{% endhint %}
***
## Dragma's Zones
Each run, send a Hero to battle one of **Dragma’s 4 zones**. They’ll battle for **12 hours**, gathering rare materials — if they survive.
😺 Heroes are transported by Mewro couriers, and a **small travel fee** is required **per Hero**.
| Zone | Difficulty | Travel Fee |
| ----- | ----------- | ---------- |
| Tail | Entry-Level | 500 $HERO |
| Legs | Moderate | 1000 $HERO |
| Torso | Advanced | 1500 $HERO |
| Head | Late-Game | 2000 $HERO |
{% hint style="warning" %}
⚔️ **Weapon Notice:** Battling Dragma **does not** reduce weapon **durability** or **sharpness**. However, if your Hero **dies** during a Dragma battle, both durability and sharpness are reduced by **2**.
{% endhint %}
### Zone Phasing
To help players prepare and pace their progress, Dragma’s zones will unlock gradually over the first week of Phase 2:
| Day | Zones Unlocked |
| --- | -------------- |
| 1 | Tail + Legs |
| 4 | Torso |
| 7 | Head |
{% hint style="success" %}
💡 Zone phasing helps create a smoother early game experience and encourages progression through each area.

## Progression and Survivability
Progression against Dragma depends on your Hero’s ability to survive, measured by **DEF** — a new stat based on Hero level and gear. This section explains how DEF affects death risk, the penalties for dying, reviving and why meeting zone DEF recommendations is essential to advance.
### What is DEF?
**DEF (Defense)** measures your Hero’s ability to survive in each Dragma zone. It’s calculated from your Hero’s level plus the **DEF** provided by their **equipped gear**. Each zone has its own death risk scale, and higher DEF reduces the chance your Hero will die based on that zone’s difficulty.
> Higher DEF = lower Death Risk.
```
DEF = (1 × Hero Level) + Sum(EquipmentDefenseScore)
```
> **Example:** A Level 25 Hero with Dragma Geaves: Standard (25 DEF): → `DEF = (1 × 25) + 25 = 50`

Gear and Hero DEF mechanics will be reworked every season. Expect changes to how defense scales and functions.
{% endhint %}
***
### Death Risk
Each zone has a **Baseline DEF Threshold** — the minimum defense your Hero should have to reduce their chance of dying.
Death risk scales based on how far **below or above** your Hero’s DEF is compared to the threshold.
#### 🔽 Death Risk: **Below the Baseline DEF Threshold**
Heroes below the threshold have a significantly higher chance of death. The risk increases the lower your DEF is.
```
Death Risk = 100 - (40 / Baseline Def) * Hero DEF
```
> For example:
>
> Hero DEF = 21 , Baseline Def is 25 → **66.4**% death chance
>
> Hero DEF = 15, Baseline Def is 130 → **95.4%** death chance
>
> Hero DEF = 200, Baseline Def is → **65.9%** death chance
#### ▶️ Death Risk: **At the Baseline**
Once your Hero reaches the **Baseline DEF**, death risk **drops sharply**
| | LVL Req | Baseline DEF | Death Risk Shift |
| ----- | ------- | ------------ | ---------------- |
| Tail | 25 | 25 | 60%→25% |
| Legs | 30 | 130 | 60%→30% |
| Torso | 35 | 235 | 60%→35% |
| Head | 40 | 340 | 60%→40% |
#### **🔼** Death Risk: **Above the Baseline**
Death risk decreases **linearly** toward **1%** as your Hero’s DEF approaches the current baseline DEF + 105.
#### Death Risk: Penalties
The following penalties apply if your Hero dies:
* Your Hero will be unusable
* Their equipped weapon **cannot be unequipped** until revived
* The weapon equipped **loses 2 durability** and **2 sharpness**
> *Mythic weapons are immune to this penalty*
***
### Reviving Heroes
If your Hero falls in battle, all is not lost.
You now have two options to bring them back:
* **Free Revival**: Wait out a cooldown period based on where your Hero fell.
* **Instant Revival**: Skip the wait by spending 6900 $HERO or using a Revive Voucher.
To begin the revival process, speak with **Commander Larp**.
#### Free Revival Cooldowns
| Zone of Death | Cooldown Time |
| ------------------- | ------------- |
| Dragma: Tail | 1 days |
| Dragma: Legs | 2 days |
| Dragma: Torso | 3 days |
| Dragma: Head | 4 days |
| Fishing: Magma Mire | 1 day |
#### Instant Revival Options
| Revive Method | Cost | Notes |

#### Crafting Material Drop Rates
Drop rates are different for each drop tier. Drop rates are determined by your Hero’s **ATK stat**.
| | Formula | Example (250 ATK) |
| --------- | ----------------- | ----------------- |
| Primary | `(ATK ÷ 20) × 3` | 37.5% |
| Secondary | `(ATK ÷ 20) × 9` | 112.5% |
| Tertiary | `(ATK ÷ 20) × 30` | 375% |
> ✅ If drop rate goes over 100%, you get guaranteed drops.
> ✅ For every full 100%, you get a chance at an additional drop. The remainder becomes the additional drop’s drop rate.
>
> e.g. 375% = 3 guaranteed + 75% chance at another drop

### Bonus Rewards
Bonus rewards are additional items you can earn on top of regular drops. Their drop rates scale with a Hero's equipped weapon rarity and the zone they're battling in.
