"Fantasies of the Thousand Gateways" - Wuthering Waves (31 March - 06 April)

"Fantasies of the Thousand Gateways" is a permanent weekly combat game mode in *Wuthering Waves*, introduced in version 2.1. It’s a roguelite-style challenge that offers players a condensed version of the "Depths of Illusive Realm" event, with opportunities to earn rewards like Astrite and leveling materials. The mode first became available on February 17, 2025, and resets every Monday, making it a recurring feature for players.

### Overview of the Mode
- **Team Setup**: Players assemble a team of up to three Resonators. Each week, certain "Dreamscape Aid" Resonators are featured; including at least one of these in your team boosts your Illusive Points by 150%, which are essential for unlocking rewards.
- **Gameplay Structure**: The mode consists of 13 Memory Zones:
- Zones 1–5, 8–11: Combat areas where players fight enemies, earning Metaphors (buffs) and Dream Fragments (currency).
- Zones 6 and 12: Rest areas where Dream Fragments can be spent to acquire more Metaphors.
- Zones 7 and 13: Boss battles; defeating these allows players to spend Waveplates for additional rewards.
- **Lucid Dream State**: By filling the Dreamscape Energy gauge through combat, players can trigger this state, activating powerful buffs tied to the week’s Dreamscape Aids and selected Metaphors.

### How to Unlock
To participate, players need to meet these requirements:
- Reach **Union Level 30**.
- Complete the prologue of Chapter II in the main story, "Through the Sea Thou Break," which unlocks Ragunna City in Rinascita.
- Activate the **Resonance Nexus** in Ragunna City.
- Finish the side quest "Fantasies of the Thousand Gateways" to access the event location each week.

### Rewards
- **Illusive Points**: Earned by clearing Memory Zones, with a weekly cap of 6,000 points. These points unlock rewards, including up to **160 Astrite** (enough for one Convene pull).
- **Waveplate Rewards**: After defeating bosses in Zones 7 and 13, players can spend 60 Waveplates (or 120 for double rewards) to obtain:
- Unborn Echoes (redeemable for Echoes from a chosen Tacet Field).
- Sealed Tubes, Tuners, and Shell Credits.
- **Weekly Reset**: The mode refreshes every Monday, updating the Dreamscape Aid Resonators, Metaphor buffs, and reward availability.

### Regarding 31 March - 06 April
The week of 31 March to 06 April falls after the mode’s debut on February 17, 2025, and aligns with its Monday reset schedule (e.g., resetting on 31 March). While no specific details are available about this exact period—such as the featured Dreamscape Aid Resonators or Metaphor buffs—the mode was active during that time. Players could participate as usual, earning Illusive Points and Waveplate rewards based on the weekly rotation.

In short, "Fantasies of the Thousand Gateways" during 31 March to 06 April would have followed its standard format: a challenging combat mode resetting on Monday, 31 March, with opportunities for strategic gameplay and weekly rewards. For precise details about that week’s Dreamscape Aids or buffs, players would need to refer to in-game announcements from that time.
