Guardians in a Half Shell
Guardians in a Half Shell is a unique event that becomes available at team level 15. It starts on December 2 and ends on December 21. The event shop will be available for one more day.
The information in this article is preliminary. The event content may be subject to change.
You can summon Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and get their unique upgrades only during this event. If you do not get them during the event, you will not be able to obtain Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles any other way.
So be sure to participate in the event to get Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles!
Though Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles consist of four Turtles, they act as one individual hero. They share artifacts, the same amount of health, and other stats.
Note
Just like any other heroes, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles have a unique Artifact Weapon, but a standard Artifact Book and Artifact Ring. You can learn more about Artifacts in this article.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles join the battle a bit later, so the effects applied at the beginning of the fight do not affect them. For example, Dorian's vampirism only affects the heroes he started the battle with, so his Initiation skill will not affect the Turtles.
Also, the Turtles join a fight one by one, starting with Leo. Shortly after the battle begins, Leo joins it and performs his Signature Move. Every 12 seconds, a new Turtle (among those whose skills you unlocked) appears on the battlefield and performs his Signature Move. Each Turtle fights for 20 seconds before leaving the battle.
You can learn more about Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' skills in the full description below.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles also have a unique talent that unlocks on the red rank. The talent conjures a hatch near a random Dungeon door on each floor. Open the hatch to get a random reward!
You can find up to three hatches daily. The talent resets at 5:00 AM your in-game time zone.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' Strengths:
-
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles can deal area-of-effect damage and apply the stun effect.
-
They can remove control effects thanks to their ultimate skill.
-
Turtles take significantly less damage as long as there is more than one Turtle on the battlefield.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' Weaknesses:
-
The heroes that remove debuffs, such as Celeste, Sebastian, Nebula, and Julius, can also remove the stun effect applied by Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
-
Heroes that block healing, such as Celeste, Jet, and Yasmine, can lower the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' chances of survival.
During the event, you have a chance to summon Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and upgrades for them:
-
You unlock Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles at the start of the event.
-
The event shop offers star-rank upgrades (up to four stars).
-
The rewards of the event Season include Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' Soul Stones and unique skins for Ishmael and Luther. These skins change appearance but do not give any additional stats. This is the only way to get these unique skins.
-
Among other rewards, the Treasury also contains Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' Soul Stones.
-
The Brawls and Secret Laboratory shops offer unique equipment for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
Note
When Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles reach higher ranks, they unlock unique equipment: one orange item and five red items. That is why, starting from Orange+4 rank, you cannot use Gifts of Dominion to upgrade Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. You can obtain this unique equipment during the event. Later, there will also be opportunities to acquire equipment for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles in special events.
If you have Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles unlocked during this event, you can upgrade them just like any other hero, even after the special event ends. However, their Soul Stones will be available only in special events or in-game bundles and only if you have already obtained the hero. All event skins are exclusive and will be available only during the Guardians in a Half Shell event.
You can find the entrance to the event on the main screen.
In the Chapters tab, you can find five chapters that unlock by timer:
Some Chapters also have parallel events, giving a chance to get even more event resources. Chapters become available according to the list below:

The adventure map features seven lore battles, which unlock one after another. Scroll the map up and down to see all the battles. For winning these battles, you get Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Coins and Workshop materials.
The latest available chapter also has five daily missions that renew every day. So make sure to complete them all to get the maximum reward!

You can start boss battles here. Bosses have different levels: the higher the level, the more difficult it is to fight them. You need the Dojo of Justice enhancement to defeat a boss in battle.
