Rose Kingdom Expedition
Rose Kingdom Expedition follows the same defense-format structure as the other two Expedition zones, protecting a payload through 5 waves that scale up from a calm 4x Toy, 8x Soldier opening. Wave 2 jumps in difficulty with 1x Senior Magenta, 9x Soldier, 4x Toy, 2x Bouncer, and 3x Sashimi, all three of Rose Kingdom's Elite variants appearing at once, before easing back to 6x Toy, 7x Soldier for wave 3. The stage closes with 9x Toy, 8x Soldier, and String Demon joining the fight in wave 5. A parallel Elite Wave track runs through the same five Rose Kingdom bosses seen in its Story acts, Heart Officer, Club Officer, Diamond Officer, Spade Officer, and String Demon.
Two enemy modifiers recur through the defense waves: Regen1, which slowly regenerates health over time, and Reinforced, which cuts incoming damage by a flat 30%. Together they make sustained damage-over-time effects noticeably weaker here than raw burst hits, since a Reinforced enemy regenerating on top of a 30% damage cut can outlast a slow-ticking DoT that would otherwise finish off an unmodified target.
String Demon's assault on the payload hits for 50 damage roughly every 6 seconds while moving at speed 1.8, matching Cursed Summoner's numbers in School Grounds Expedition rather than Purple Flower's heavier single hit in Flower Forest Expedition. A clear rewards ExpeditionMaterial3, this zone's specific crafting material, instead of the flat Gem and Gold payout used by Story and Raid stages.
Details
Wave breakdown
Defense wave 1 opens with 4x Toy, 8x Soldier.
Defense wave 2 spikes with 1x Senior Magenta, 9x Soldier, 4x Toy, 2x Bouncer, 3x Sashimi, all three Elite variants at once.
Defense wave 5 closes with 9x Toy, 8x Soldier, and String Demon joining the fight directly.
The parallel Elite Wave track runs Heart Officer, then Club Officer, then Diamond Officer, then Spade Officer, then String Demon as a fifth solo encounter.
Farm efficiency
Like the other two Expedition zones, Rose Kingdom Expedition pays crafting material rather than Gems, so it is worth prioritizing when ExpeditionMaterial3 is needed for expedition upgrades. Its wave 2 spike, which throws all three Elite variants at once well before the final wave, makes early preparation more important here than a smooth difficulty ramp would suggest.
