Block Tales Demo 5 Guide
Chapter 5, Trouble on the Heights, leads from Opticus’s trial through the three districts to Trinity Council and Frostmaw. Use the checkpoints below to find the guide for your current obstacle.
Main story checkpoints
1. Survive Opticus’s trial
Ultimate Overseer ends the trial; you do not need to remove all 600 HP. The post-fight conversation awards Paintball Gun.
2. Collect the three district shards
Continue with Cassie through Redcliff, Splintered Skies and Astral Isles. The chapter guide identifies the council encounters and return to the castle.
3. Defeat Trinity Council
Keep 1 SP for Ghost Potion after Azuri’s Astral Chargeup. Choose one target, watch Robur’s Shield and account for the potion’s skipped action.
4. Keep Cassie alive against Frostmaw
Clear the Korblox summons, let Windforce Cassie break Armor and attack during Broken Armor. Her defeat ends the encounter.
Unlocks and optional returns
- Paintball Gun
Use Paint Platforms to copy the reference painting. Its battle action costs 4 SP and applies Painted.
- Windforce
The Chapter 5 story sword costs 3 NRG. It is a reward after Frostmaw, so it cannot be in a first-clear loadout.
- Mutant’s optional encounter
Return to the normal Manor with Brigand’s Sword and cut the barred entrance beside the Diner.
- Trinity vendors
Find Sam’s BUX cards near the castle entrance and Valor’s TIX stock, including Bombardment.
- Chapter 5 BUX
The current location reference lists 11 pickups in this chapter; check the tower, districts and Seventh Sanctum.
- Pit floors 51–60
Floor 57 combines emotion bosses with Opticus. Floor 59 adds Toothy Deer to the council; Floor 60 rewards Pack Tactics.
Before copying a build
Call: Cassie is unlocked after Frostmaw. For the first council clear, Ghost Potion and the earlier Ghostwalker sword provide available protection options. Check each encounter’s restrictions: a loadout that uses a later reward does not describe a first clear.
The build maker checks BP and action SP costs. It does not simulate enemy turns or prove that a loadout survives a boss.
