Expend Storm Pods to Re-Investigate the Bleached Earth!
In Ordeal Call, you can freely travel across the Bleached Earth to make your investigations.
More and more new Free Quests and High Difficulty Quests will appear on the Bleached Earth.
In addition to AP, you'll need the new item "Storm Pod" to play the Free Quests that appear on the Bleached Earth.
How to Get Storm Pods
In addition to the three Storm Pods awarded upon clearing "Ordeal Call 0", three Storm Pods will be available as a login bonus every day. * Masters who have cleared "Ordeal Call Prologue" as well as "Ordeal Call 0", scheduled to be released on 2025-05-08 PDT (GMT -7), will be eligible for the login bonus.
You can hold a maximum of nine Storm Pods at once.
If your Storm Pod total would exceed that limit when you first log in each day, you will not be able to receive the excess Storm Pods that day.

Masters who have cleared "Ordeal Call Prologue" as well as "Ordeal Call 0", scheduled to be released on 2025-05-08 PDT (GMT -7), will be eligible for the login bonus.
In order to prepare for the trials ahead, we're implementing "Class Score", a new system that will allow you to strengthen each class by improving your skill as a Master. You can access Class Score from "Enhance" in the Menu.
Each Class Score is made up of a series of spaces called "Signs".
Nine Class Scores will be available, representing different classes. Unlock the Sign for the class(es) you want to strengthen to give all Servants for the affected class(es) a variety of strengthening effects!
You can check the effects gained from unlocked Class Score Signs from various screens, including each Class Score screen and the Class Affinity details window.

Eligibility:
Masters who have cleared "Ordeal Call Prologue" as well as "Ordeal Call 0", scheduled to be released on 2025-05-08 PDT (GMT -7), will be eligible to use the Class Score system.
How to Unlock Class Scores
Unlocking Signs
To unlock a Sign, you'll need the new item Sand of Starlight in addition to already existing items and QP.
You can collect Sand of Starlight by clearing quests on the Bleached Earth.
Not all Signs can be unlocked right away. Only the central class symbols or Signs connected by a Route to a Sign that has already been unlocked can be unlocked.
Unlocking Tour Locks
The Route to certain Signs is sealed with a Tour Lock, which cannot be unlocked when you first access the system.
In order to unlock each Tour Lock, you'll need to clear certain missions and use the newly added Torch items.
Torches are divided into three levels: Torch of Nova, Torch of the Morning Star, and Torch of the Polar Star.
You can get Torches by clearing High Difficulty Quests on the Bleached Earth and by clearing missions.
Operation: Ordeal Call begins with the re-investigation of the Bleached Earth.
Each "Ordeal Call" chapter tells the story of a turning point in the final journey.
The curtain rises on the first trial in "Ordeal Call I", scheduled for a mid-May 2025 release.
Look forward to more developments that started with the newly added Class Score system, which is sure to be useful to Masters!
Below is the main feature that will be added to the game with the update scheduled for 2025-05-08 PDT (GMT -7).
