What Flash Missions Are

Flash Missions are short rotating objectives received from level 12. They are generated from activities currently available to the player, including the highest accessible galaxy, its natural Monsters, available Boss maps and whether a main Research is running.

Access, Slots and Flow

Rule	Value	What it means
Unlock level	12	Random Flash Missions begin appearing from this level.
Base active slots	3	New missions stop arriving when all active slots are occupied.
Extra slots	Skill Tree and selected Weekend Events	Bonuses can increase the number of missions received.
Timed missions	From level 18	A timed mission has a deadline and a stronger reward.
Reception	Checked regularly while connected	The chance of receiving another mission falls as the available slots fill.

Mission Actions

Action	Result
Claim	Grants the completed reward and removes the mission.
Cancel	Removes the mission without reward after its cancellation delay.
Finish now	Costs 200 Stars, grants the current reward and immediately creates a replacement.
Switch task	Costs 75 Stars, replaces the task family and resets progress while keeping the same reward strength and difficulty.
Expiration	Removes an unfinished timed mission when its deadline is reached.

Rewards and Scaling

Every normal Flash Mission grants research time plus either Uranium or Experience. Rare reward rolls can replace the main reward with Skill Tokens from level 16 or Squadron Candy from level 30, while still granting research time. Timed missions increase the reward. Skill Tree, guild station bonuses and relevant Weekend Events can also improve it.

Available Tasks by Unlock or Condition

Objective amounts scale with player level, the selected target and a random difficulty rate. The tables therefore list the task itself rather than a fixed number.

How to Plan Flash Missions

Prioritize missions that overlap with your current route. Market and research-time objectives pair naturally, Monster objectives fit normal farming, and Boss objectives are efficient when you already intend to visit that map. Switch when the reward is useful but the task is unsuitable; cancel when neither is worth keeping.

Full Mission Lifecycle

A mission may be timed or untimed. Switching keeps its reward and difficulty but generates another task type. Cancelling becomes available after its delay, normally one hour minus any relevant Skill Tree reduction. Claiming frees the slot; an expired timed mission gives no reward.

FAQ

Why did I stop receiving Flash Missions?

Your active slots may be full. New missions are only generated while space remains.

Why do objective amounts vary?

They scale from the player's level, selected galaxy or enemy, and the mission's difficulty rate.

Should I cancel or switch?

Switch when the reward is worth preserving. Cancel when you prefer to abandon both the task and its reward.
