The Doom Tower

The Doom Tower is one of Raid: Shadow Legends’ toughest PvE challenges, offering players the chance to test their teams against increasingly difficult encounters. With two difficulties, Normal and Hard, each featuring 120 floors to climb, Secret Rooms to conquer, and 8 unique bosses spread across the rotations, there’s plenty to overcome. Explore our Doom Tower guides for boss strategies, team recommendations, and everything you need to progress through the tower and claim its rewards!

The Doom Tower is a challenging PvE game mode that unlocks at Player Level 40, featuring 120 floors to climb across two difficulties: Normal and Hard. Each rotation lasts around one month, with a selection of 8 unique bosses appearing across the different rotations, alongside Secret Rooms that offer additional challenges and rewards.

Most floors consist of 3 waves of enemy Champions that must be defeated to progress, with every 10th floor featuring a boss encounter. Completing a floor for the first time unlocks the next stage and grants a one time reward, while previously defeated bosses can be farmed for Forge materials.

Normal vs Hard Difficulty

For players with an established roster of around 6-10 Rank 6 Champions covering important roles such as damage, healing, support, debuffs, and crowd control, Normal difficulty should be a very achievable goal. Having a balanced team that can survive incoming attacks, control enemy waves, and deal consistent damage will make climbing the tower much easier.

Hard difficulty, however, is where the challenge increases significantly. Enemies have much higher stats, including SPD, ACC, and RES, making it harder to control waves and survive incoming damage. Players will need to consider stronger defensive builds, reliable crowd control, and enough damage to defeat increasingly durable enemies.

Boss encounters also become far more demanding, often requiring teams built around their unique mechanics rather than simply overwhelming them with damage. Understanding how each boss works, bringing the right Champions to counter their abilities, and balancing survivability with damage will be essential for progressing through the higher floors.

Even if you’re not ready to complete Hard difficulty, it’s always worth attempting the early floors to see how far your roster can progress and collect any additional rewards along the way.

Doom Tower Keys & Daily Progression

Each day at the daily reset, players receive 10 Gold Keys and 10 Silver Keys, with an additional 5 Silver Keys available through an Advanced Quest. These keys are shared between Normal and Hard difficulty and serve different purposes:

• Gold Keys: Used to clear Doom Tower floors for the first time, including regular waves and Boss Floors. Each successful clear consumes 1 Gold Key and rewards players with the floor’s completion rewards.
• Silver Keys: Used to complete Secret Rooms or farm previously defeated Boss Floors for Forge materials. Secret Rooms provide additional rewards, including Champion Fragments, while repeated Boss battles offer materials for crafting unique Artifact Sets.

Keys are only consumed upon successfully completing an encounter, meaning failed attempts won’t cost anything. Previously completed regular floors can also be replayed without using keys, although they won’t provide additional rewards.

With 10 Gold Keys available each day, players need a minimum of 12 days to complete all 120 floors on one difficulty, or 24 days to clear both Normal and Hard. Since each rotation lasts approximately 30 days, making use of your daily keys is important if you’re aiming to conquer both difficulties before the tower resets.

Whether you’re working towards your first Normal clear or attempting to conquer Hard difficulty, making use of your daily keys and understanding the mechanics of each boss will help you get the most out of every Doom Tower rotation.

Each difficulty of the Doom Tower features 12 unique Secret Rooms, offering additional challenges with specific restrictions on which Champions can be used. These encounters work similarly to regular Doom Tower floors, but require players to build teams around certain conditions, such as using Champions from a particular Faction, Type, Affinity, or Rarity.

Successfully completing a Secret Room rewards players with 2 Silver Keys, effectively gaining 1 additional key after accounting for the key used to enter. You’ll also earn 3 Champion Fragments towards exclusive Doom Tower reward Champions, allowing you to collect up to 36 Fragments per difficulty each rotation.

With 100 Fragments required to summon a Champion, consistently clearing all 12 Secret Rooms allows players to unlock a new reward Champion approximately every three rotations. These Champions offer another great incentive to develop a versatile roster capable of tackling different team restrictions.
