Tower of Salvation – High Score Guide

High scoring rules

Is clearing Level 10 too easy for you? The next challenge is to get a high score for more season rewards.

The rules for high scoring are somewhat hidden in the game. Other than just clearing all floors, there are bonus points awarded for clearing with certain conditions. The scoring rules are as follows:

2,000Finish with at least 20 relics

High scoring strategy

Silver bonus

To finish with enough silver for the silver bonus, relics that increase interest earned are essential. Always buy them because they are always worth it.

Interest is earned based on how much silver you have in your possession. To maximize interest, try to avoid spending silver as much as you can during your run and try to avoid shops until you get to the end. This in itself is a big challenge.

Event encounters and elite battles

The number of event encounters and elite battles generated each run are entirely up to RNG. You may need to do multiple runs daily throughout the season to be lucky enough to generate 7 or 10 event encounters in a single run.

Always check ahead at the beginning of your run to plan your route.

The event chance relics are worth it if you are aiming for many event encounters.

Relics bonus

It's almost impossible to naturally get to 25 relics during your run.

Therefore, the aim is to get to the floor 29 shop and then buy as many cheap and discounted relics as you can, even if they don't really help your team. If you've already made it to floor 29, your team is most likely already strong enough to take on the final boss on floor 30. Once you've bought all the cheap relics, refresh and go again. However keep an eye on your remaining silver and avoid dropping below 100,000 silver (or else you will lose the silver bonus).

Characters bonus

It is quite difficult to finish a run with 7 or less characters, because it takes luck to not accidentally go over 7. You start with 5 characters, so you can get no more than 2 new characters during your run. You need to be lucky enough to get mostly costumes of existing characters that you already have in your existing team. If you are trying for the low characters bonus, it's ideal to have characters on your team with multiple costumes (e.g. Justia, Lathel, Teresse, etc).

Most of the time, 15 characters is a lot easier. If you go over 7 characters, then prioritize picking up new characters whenever there is no better choice available, and on Floor 29, buying as many discounted new character costumes as you can.
