Aura Gate is an area that features a randomly generated dungeon with 50 floors. It's open 0~55 minutes every hour and randomized the floors during the 5 minutes that it isn't available. Action power is consumed while inside Aura Gate, which restores at 1 per minute.

Overview

Each floor is traditional dungeon crawling with random encounters. A boss is at the end of every floor, and you can return back to any of the floors you’ve cleared every time you enter.

  • When the time that Aura Gate is open for is over, it will forcibly kick you out if you were exploring.
  • If you are in a battle, it will not end your battle but wait until the end of the battle.
  • If you were in a boss battle and defeated the boss, that will still be saved even after you are kicked out of Aura Gate.
  • The main loot in Aura Gate is Magnetite, 3~4★ Demon Talk, 6★ Brands which are found at the highest floors.
  • Hence, the main goal should to be climb as far as you can, and that’s by seeking out the boss of every new floor.
  • Floor 46~50 is the best floor to farm Magnetite. To farm Magnetite, you should seek out the MAG chest on every floor and move onto the next.

There are a couple gimmicks in Aura Gate indicated by the tile
Gimmick Description
Damage Tile Take damage and lower HP of your party demons every time you step on this tile.
Dark Zone Tile Consume a lot of action points. Hides the Minimap.
Magnetite Chest Obtain some amount of Magnetite once per Aura Gate exploration. Uses 10% action power.
Fountain Restores 50 action points and your party’s HP to full. Usable only once per Aura Gate exploration.
Moon The moon changes phase every 10 minutes. During the full moon or new moon, the amount of magnetite and experience acquired inside will increase.
Random Item You can acquire some magnetite or action points or an item.
Gatekeeper Powerful demon appearing on the floor for all players. Receive a reward according to the ranking of damage dealt at the end.
Gravestone Appears when another player is defeated. If you choose to battle, you'll battle with the defeated party (this won't affect your main party at all). If you win, you get fame, magnetite, and a demon's soul
Chaos Knight If you succeed in the picking the right card, the number of random items encountered on this floor will increase for all players, and HP + Steps will be restored to full. If you fail, you’ll take damage or all random items on the floor will become 1 in quantity for all players. There is no indicator for when the White Rider will appear, it’s completely random.

To deal with the gimmicks, a sub party like below is recommended:

Demon 1 Demon 2 Demon 3 Demon 4
Hare of Inaba - Immunity to Dark Zone Tiles. Zouchouten (Purple Awakened) - Immunity to Damage Tiles. Any Demon Any Demon

As well, since your party’s HP isn’t recovered after battle, a healer is necessary.

Party Building

While floors are randomly generated, demons you find are not.

Liberators

Main - Templar Dragon for difficult fights
Sub - Eileen for item drops, Megakin for demon talk.

Healers

Horus/ Feng Huang (Teal Awakened) [transferred Samarecarm] and Isis/Yellow Sandalphon (transferred Diarama) are recommended healers.

Floor 40+ Demons

These demons are required as it becomes difficult to perform the first attack without Speedster, and auto buffs to help are very valuable.

Fenrir (Purple Awakened) - Speedster + Auto-Takukaja
Sleipnir - Speedster + Mahamaon
Yatagarasu - Speedster + Auto-Sukunda
Kama - Speedster
Azrael - Tetrakarn + Makara Shift
