Tartarus season rewards

Use compasses to focus season map rewards

Apply a compatible compass effect to maps where the character can handle its added encounter or challenge.

PC / Global, current Tartarus season (October 2026)
WHERE & HOW TO FARM

Where to farm

Netherrealm map setup, using a compatible compass before opening an eligible stage.

A compass adds the effect written on it to an eligible Netherrealm stage. It is an investment in a particular map reward or encounter, so read the item before slotting it and judge its value against your build’s ability to finish the added content. Seasonal compass behavior and available slots can vary; the stage interface is the final check before consuming one.

GET STARTED

How to farm

Before you go

  • Have a compass and a map stage that accepts it.
  • Unlock the current seasonal mechanic if the compass requires it.
  • Be able to clear the stage’s normal content and its added challenge.
  1. Read the compass description and identify the encounter or reward it adds.
  2. Open the map setup interface and confirm the stage accepts that compass.
  3. Check the displayed effect and any compatibility or slot limits before committing.
  4. Choose a Timemark where the added encounter is within your character’s capability.
  5. Slot the compass and start the stage.
  6. Complete the map and the compass-added objective if it appears.
  7. Collect the resulting rewards and compare the run’s time and output with an unmodified map.

Farming tips

  • Use compasses after learning the base route; basic mapping does not require spending one every run.
  • The database notes a one-season-compass limit per Netherrealm stage; check the live interface for current constraints.

Repeat, collect and use

Repeat while you have compatible compasses; each use consumes a resource and results vary with the effect.

Common mistakes

  • Using a compass without reading its effect: verify the exact added content before spending it.
  • Saving all compasses indefinitely: use one when its target fits your current map tier and goal.

When to stop or switch

Stop using a given compass effect when its reward target is met or its challenge makes clears unreliable.
