Fairy King Forest Act 2
Fairy King Forest Act 2 is the 2nd story stage inside Fairy King Forest, an ancient forest ruled by fairies and armored demons. The act is built from 15 waves and roughly 297 total enemy spawns, opening with a manageable mix of 8x Fairy, 8x Knight and scaling up wave by wave until the final wave throws 9x Fairy, 14x Knight, 1x Faith, 3x Red Demon (Elite) at the player's placed units. Faith is the boss that caps the stage, and its health pool and aggression sit noticeably above the Basic and Elite spawns that lead up to it.
Along the way, watch for enemies carrying the Armored, Tank, Commander, ZoneDebuff modifiers: Armored enemies shrug off a flat 33% of incoming damage; Tank enemies trade speed for a larger health pool; Commander enemies buff every enemy near them, so they are worth focusing down early; ZoneDebuff enemies pulse an attack-speed debuff onto nearby placed units. Compared to Fairy King Forest Act 1, this act keeps the same core wave shape but raises the difficulty by swapping in Faith as the closing boss.
Clearing Fairy King Forest Act 2 on Normal pays a flat 75 Gems, 75 Gold, 115 Player EXP, and 500 Unit EXP, while Hard raises that to 100 Gems, 100 Gold, 145 Player EXP, and 1000 Unit EXP for the same wave list. Both difficulties also drop a zone-exclusive food item on every clear (1 on Normal, 2 on Hard), and a first-time clear bonus on top of the standard reward applies the first time each difficulty is beaten. Since Hard pays roughly a third more currency for an identical wave layout, it is the better long-term farming target once a team can survive Faith reliably; Normal remains the safer option for teams still gearing up.

Wave breakdown
Wave 1 opens with 8x Fairy, 8x Knight.
By the midpoint, wave 8 of 15 throws 12x Knight, 7x Fairy at the field.
The final wave caps the stage with 9x Fairy, 14x Knight, 1x Faith, 3x Red Demon (Elite), with Faith anchoring the push.
Farm efficiency
Fairy King Forest Act 2 pays the same flat reward on every clear regardless of how fast the wave list is cleared, so total Gem and Gold income per hour depends entirely on team clear speed and whether the stage is run on auto-replay. Hard is the stronger currency target since it pays roughly 33% more Gems and Gold than Normal for an identical wave list, and it is the only difficulty that can drop the zone-exclusive equipment on Act 5. Players still building their roster should stick to Normal until their team can clear Faith without losing units, since a failed Hard clear pays nothing.
