Hard Chapter Rewards
Key first-clear rewards for Hard difficulty chapters.
Hard Chapter Rewards Guide
Hard difficulty chapters are additional content that unlocks once you clear the same chapter on normal difficulty, and they grant extra resources separate from normal rewards. Because the difficulty is higher, the per-chapter payouts of diamonds, runes, and materials are richer than on normal chapters, making them a core resource source during the build strengthening phase.
This page tabulates the first-clear rewards and cumulative totals for each hard chapter. Rather than circling back to all hard chapters at once after you finish all normal chapters, the typical flow is to clear each chapter's hard mode together with its normal mode and stack resources as you go.

Hard chapters have higher enemy stats compared to normal, so rather than forcing your way through, it is more efficient to wait until you have a baseline of character ★ breakthroughs and gear enhancement before attempting them. If you get stuck on hard mode immediately after clearing the normal version of the same chapter, strengthen your build first and try again.
Frequently Asked Questions
QWhen can I attempt hard chapters?
You have to clear the same chapter's normal difficulty first to unlock the hard challenge. Hard mode opens up immediately after the normal clear, so the most efficient flow is to clear normal and hard back-to-back.
QCan I receive both normal and hard rewards?
Yes — they are treated as separate rewards. You can receive the normal first-clear reward and the hard first-clear reward independently for the same chapter, so make sure not to miss either.
QWhat if hard chapters are too difficult?
The standard approach is to push your build up a tier with character ★ breakthroughs, gear enhancement, and rune fusion, then retry. Cross-reference the Character Tier page (PvE tab) and the gear enhancement cost page on this site to decide which upgrades to prioritize next.
