Fatigue and injury

Mercenaries lose attack strength and speed as combat and training build fatigue. Injured mercenaries cannot deploy until they recover, and falling while exhausted can mean a longer recovery.

Open a mercenary under "Mercs" and check "Condition" in the "Growth" tab. Before departing, also check the party sheet in "Tower" and "Party status" on the scouting screen for exhausted mercenaries or those assigned to rest.

Assign rest and advance the week if your main party needs recovery before a boss. Upgrade Lodging to help with fatigue, and consider the Infirmary if injuries keep leaving gaps in your party.

When fatigue runs high

Once fatigue reaches these values, attack and action speed drop in battle. Hard and Expert lose more on regular climbs.

Fatigue	Standard	Hard, Expert
40 or more	−5%	−7%
70 or more	−15%	−20%
85 or more	−24%	−38%
95 or more	−32%	−50%

At fatigue 70 or more a mercenary is overworked. The fatigue number turns red, and falling in battle while overworked means a longer injury. Auto-assign puts overworked mercenaries on rest and the others on training. When "This Week’s Party" in "Base" includes overworked members, a rest button appears on that row. Tap it and they rest once they return from the expedition.
