Witch Gate

The Witch Gate is a special area that has a chance of appearing traversing the event maps. There is no limit to the number of times the witch gate may appear, but you are limited by the amount of vitality you are able or willing to spend. Witch gates offer two purposes:
 * to collect the archwitches only found inside.
 * to collect the awakening items only found inside.

Each witch gate is active for a maximum of 30 minutes. When the timer reaches zero, the gate closes, automatically returning you to the event map.

Inside Witch Gate, there is a limited number of archwitch and fantasy archwitch encounters, which include some archwitches that cannot be found elsewhere. The types of encounters are indicated at the top of the progress screen. The number of encounters and their types are random for every witch gate.

Every step inside the gate costs 7 vitality. While the gate is open, you will not be able to progress the event map. You can return to the event map anytime you wish by tapping the "Return" button. If you leave, the gate will close.

There is no stage clear reward for completing the witch gate. Instead, the rewards only come from the encounters inside. Upon finishing all the encounters, the gate closes.

Your Magic School has no effect on the archwitch encounter rates inside witch gate.

Number of Challenges
You can choose the number of battle points (which the game calls "challenges") to spend per fight to defeat an Archwitch inside the Witch Gate. The more battle points you spend, the more advantages you receive. Up to 3 battle points may be used at once.

Requesting Reinforcements
Due to the advantages gained from spending multiple battle points, you cannot request reinforcements inside the Witch Gate.

Items for Awakening
The witch gate is the only location where you can collect the items required for awakening. By collecting the special items, you will be able to awaken some cards. There are four kinds of different items in each of the four elements. The orbs have the lowest chance of dropping.

Archwitch Level and Rewards
Archwitches inside the gate will level up independently to the ones encountered in the event map. On the Rewards screen, these archwitches are indicated in purple and can drop the items used for awakening.

Limited Enemies
The Time Traveler is a limited enemy which can appear inside the witch gate. These battles function the same way as any other limited enemy but is not guaranteed to drop rewards every time. When she does, it will be one or more of the awakening items.
