Arms Race - Drone Boost

:robot: Drone Boost – Maximize Combat Points and Stamina Efficiency

Drones are a game-changer in Last War: Survival, and during the Drone Boost phase of the Arms Race, they become even more powerful. This guide will walk you through how to make the most of your drone points, stamina management, and combat boosts to climb the Arms Race ranks faster.


:rocket: What Is Drone Boost?

Drone Boost allows you to earn extra points for using combat drones and drone-related features. Drones are an invaluable part of your arsenal, and the Drone Boost phase rewards you specifically for using them in combat, completing missions, or enhancing drone technology. To make the most of this phase, you need to plan ahead and maximize every opportunity.


:date: Timing Is Everything: Use Drones During the Drone Boost Phase

To score big during the Drone Boost phase, don’t wait until the last minute. Here’s how you can maximize your points:

  1. Activate drones before the phase starts: Have drones ready to go before the phase activates, so when it hits, you can jump straight into action.
  2. Use drone combat points early: Start using drones for combat as soon as the phase begins, especially for missions that reward you with points.
  3. Don’t waste stamina: Every stamina spent counts during this phase. Use it efficiently for missions that provide combat points.

:brain: How to Make the Most of Drone Combat Points

Drone combat points are awarded based on the success and usage of your drones in missions and combat. The key to optimizing these points is knowing which combat types give the best returns and keeping drones at peak performance.

Key Strategies:

  • Send drones on missions during Drone Boost: If you have drones available, use them in combat missions during the phase. They’ll provide you with both combat rewards and important tech upgrades.
  • Focus on high-reward missions: Some drone missions provide more points than others. Prioritize these to maximize your return on stamina and combat effort.

Pro Tip:

Always boost your drones’ combat stats before the Drone Boost phase starts. This ensures they perform better in missions and increase your chances of high rewards.


:hammer_and_wrench: Drone Upgrades – Boost Drone Effectiveness

Improving your drones is key to getting the most out of the Drone Boost phase. The stronger your drones, the more damage they can deal and the more points you’ll earn from combat. You can upgrade drones using both materials and tech that improve drone performance.

  • Upgrade drone tech to increase their combat power.
  • Focus on drone speed and attack boosts to maximize efficiency during missions.
  • Enhance your drones in the Tech Research section so they perform better in combat scenarios and are more valuable during the Drone Boost phase.

Pro Tip:

Upgrade drones strategically. Focus on the combat drones that align with your current military strengths (e.g., air, ground, etc.). This lets you use drones that complement your army, making every mission more effective.


:zap: Drone Combat – Efficient Use of Stamina

Stamina is limited, so you need to make sure every point counts. Here’s how to efficiently use stamina during the Drone Boost phase:

  1. Perform drone combat missions that reward you with the most points for stamina.
  2. Don’t waste stamina on low-reward missions—prioritize high-stakes battles or events that provide better returns.
  3. Use stamina potions and boosts during the Drone Boost phase to keep your stamina high, enabling you to take on more missions without slowing down.

  • Max out drone capacity: Always have as many drones in operation as possible to earn more points.
  • Plan ahead: Know which drones will be at their peak during the Drone Boost phase. This allows you to time your drone usage for maximum efficiency.
