■ Infiltration Operation

   1) Unlock Condition  
     ㄴ Unlocked upon clearing Season 2 Normal Mission 2-15 ‘Unchanging.’
   2) How to Enter  
     ㄴ Lobby > Adventure > Irregular Extermination Project > Infiltration Operation to enter the dungeon.

   3) How to Play
     ㄴ Enter a Floor, which is divided into difficulty levels, and proceed with battles in the Areas within the Floor.
     ㄴ Each Area consists of Sectors where you can engage in battle, recover antibodies, or obtain treasure chests.      ㄴ Clearing the Boss Sector in an Area unlocks the next Area.      ㄴ Repeat clearing until you reach the final Area, then defeat the Boss Sector to unlock the next Floor.      ㄴ There are a total of three Floors with varying difficulty levels, and completing the highest difficulty Floor 3 marks the end.

   4) Sector Details
     ㄴ The Sectors within an Area are divided into six types.

   5) Infection Antibody
     ㄴ To enter a ‘Battle Sector’ within an Area, you will need heroes with Stamina and Infection Antibodies
           that meet the sector's requirements.      ㄴ Clearing a Battle Sector will reduce the Infection Antibodies of all participating heroes            by the sector's specified antibody depletion rate.      ㄴ Infection Antibodies can be restored at Antibody Recovery Sectors or Caren’s Supply Shop.      ㄴ Allies’ Infection Antibodies will reset to 100% at the daily reset time.   6) Caren’s Supply Shop
     ㄴ At the supply shop run by the Irregular Hunter Caren, you can use ‘Irregular Samples’
          to purchase various currencies that aid your gameplay.      ㄴ Unused ‘Irregular Samples’ will be reset at the monthly reset time.      ㄴ ‘Irregular Samples’ can be obtained from Battle, Treasure, or Event Sectors..   7) Irregular Hunter Bonus
     ㄴ Buffs are applied when an Irregular Hunter hero is deployed to the team.
     ㄴ For each Irregular Hunter hero, all allies gain a 20% increase in damage dealt and a 10% reduction in damage taken.           These bonuses scale based on the number of Irregular Hunters in the team.      ㄴ The bonus can stack up to a maximum of 4 times.

    8) Reward  
     ㄴ In Infiltration Operation, you can obtain the following rewards with a certain probability.

■ Pursuit Operation

   1) Unlock Condition
     ㄴ Unlocks after clearing Irregular Extermination Project – Infiltration Operation [Floor 1].
   2) How to Enter
     ㄴ Adventure > Irregular Extermination Project > Pursuit Operation to enter the dungeon.

   3) How to Play
     ㄴ You can choose one of the four bosses to exterminate and either consume the new currency, Location Tracker,
           to start an Extermination Project or join an already started battle.      ㄴ If participating Masters defeat the boss within the time limit, the battle is cleared successfully,            and rewards will be distributed.       ㄴ Battles are available in Normal, Hard, and Very Hard difficulties. Clearing a lower difficulty unlocks the higher difficulty.      ㄴ Rankings are determined based on how much HP has been lost and number of entries of the Masters in the battle.           However, there are no differences in rewards based on rankings.      ㄴ Each Extermination Project lasts for 24 hours after the start, and Masters can enter the same battle up to three times.      ㄴ Participation in Extermination Projects consumes Stamina.            If re-entering the same battle, the amount of Stamina consumed decreases.      ㄴ You can participate in up to 10 Extermination Projects per boss.

   4) Extermination Project Initiation
     ㄴ The Extermination Project can be initiated by consuming Location Trackers, which you acquire for every 250 Stamina spent.       ㄴ A maximum of 5 Location Trackers can be held at any time.
     ㄴ When initiating a battle, you can select one of three difficulty levels: Normal, Hard, or Very Hard.      ㄴ Once a boss's HP is reduced by a certain amount, you can change the battle to a public room where other Masters can join.           ㄴ You may cancel a private Extermination Project, but the currency used to initiate it will not be refunded.

  5) Extermination Project Participation
     ㄴ Masters can join Extermination Projects initiated by friends, guild members, or other Masters.
     ㄴ After selecting a boss, you can browse the Recruiting board to find and join an available Extermination Project.   6) Reward    
     ㄴ By participating in Pursuit Operation, you can earn various rewards such as Irregular Cells,
           Refined Upgrade Stone Chests, Hammers, and Present Chests.        ㄴ Gold is awarded upon participation, with the quantity of final rewards varying based on the success or failure            of the boss extermination and the selected difficulty.

■ Point Exchange

   1) Accumulate Irregular Cells earned from Infiltration Operation and Pursuit Operation
         to exchange them for rewards at the shop.
   2) The type of Irregular Cell earned depends on the boss defeated, and you can claim rewards assigned to that specific type.    3) Purchasing the Irregular Pass grants access to additional rewards.
