You hear some strange noises behind you and turn around to see three excited scientists. They inform you that they've figured out a way to modify The Portal to take you to a new type of challenging dimension, a system they proudly call 'Challenge2'. You will be able to activate and check out their new technology by clicking the 'Challenge2' button next time you go to use The Portal.
Challenge² is a special set of challenges which become permanently unlocked and available for completion after reaching zone 65. These are exact copies of normal challenges, except they don't end at specific zones. Instead, upon completion (through Portal or abandon), each Challenge² grants the player with permanent additional bonuses to attack, health and helium for reaching certain HZE (Highest Zone Ever) milestones. The bonus can only be increased by reaching higher zones in each Challenge²; repeating a single Challenge² to the same zone will not increase it. The total bonus will apply to all your future runs.
During a Challenge² run, it is impossible to earn any Helium from any source. This means it is impossible to buy any Wormholes. If a Challenge² is abandoned, similar to standard challenges all the rules will stop applying, and as such, Helium will become obtainable.
15 standard challenges can be unlocked as Challenge²s. These include:
- Discipline
- Metal
- Size
- Balance
- Meditate
- Trimp
- Trapper
- Electricity
- Coordinate
- Slow
- Nom
- Mapology
- Toxicity
- Watch
- Lead
In Patch 5.9.0, 12 of these Challenge²s were combined into 6 hybrid Challenge²s. By running these challenges, you set the highest zone completed for each of the standard challenges used.
- Enlightened -- Discipline + Meditate
- Paralysis -- Slow + Electricity
- Nometal -- Nom + Metal
- Topology -- Balance + Mapology
- Waze -- Watch + Size
- Toxad -- Toxicity + Lead
In addition, there are two other challenges with completely different rulesets existing purely as a challenge²:
Despite having the same rules as standard challenges, you can't complete some challenge related feats (see Achievements) in Challenge²s.
Rewards[]
Most Challenge²s give the same rewards for reaching the same zone milestones, with some exceptions. All of the Challenge²s and their following bonuses add to a single separate multiplier, and any additions to this multiplier are additive.
The total bonus gained for reaching zone z of a Challenge² using the default reward scheme is
Default | Trimp challenge | Trapper challenge | Coordinate challenge | Obliterated challenge | Eradicated challenge |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Every 10 zones |
Every 10 zones |
Every 10 zones | Every 3 zones | Every 1 zone | Every 1 zone |
1% ATK/HP, 0.1% Helium |
3% ATK/HP, 0.3% Helium | 1% ATK/HP, 0.1% Helium | 1% ATK/HP, 0.1% Helium | 1% ATK/HP, 0.1% Helium | 10% ATK/HP, 1% Helium |
The above boost will improve | |||||
Every 100 zones, by | Every 40 zones, by | Every 50 zones, by | Every 30 zones, by | Every 10 zones, by | Every 2 zones, by |
1% ATK/HP, 0.1% Helium | 3% ATK/HP, 0.3% Helium | 2% ATK/HP, 0.2% Helium | 1% ATK/HP, 0.1% Helium | 1% ATK/HP, 0.1% Helium | 2% ATK/HP, 0.2% Helium |
For every N zones you reach, you get X% more Attack and Health and Y% more Helium Bonus. And every Z zones, you get an increase in further additions to that Challenge's Bonuses. The bonus from previous zones remains the same, but reaching further breakpoints, will give increased bonuses for further zone breakpoints. For example, the default is 1% (X) and 0.1% (Y) every 10 (N) zones, and increases every 100 (Z) zones. This would give a 1%/0.1% boost for reaching 10, 2%/0.2% for reaching 20, up to 10%/1% for reaching 100. However, upon reaching 110, this would be 12% (10+2%)/1.2% (1+0.2%), up to 30% (10+20%)/3% (1+2%) at 200, at which point it increases further to 3%/0.3% per 10 zones past 200. This continues indefinitely, as shown by the table below.
The reward formula for every challenge, in general, is:
Breakdown[]
On the tables below, rewards are formatted as so:
X/Y
Where X is health and attack % and Y is helium %.
Percentages are cumulative, i.e. reach this zone record to have that amount of total bonus from one challenge.
Challenge²s are almost endless. The tables end arbitrarily, but there is a cap. The Maximum zone for most challenges is 810. For some, the maximum reachable zone is lower due to scaling. The Maximum reward from Challenge²s is 60000%

With the Mesmer Mastery, the bonus from the 12 default challenges is tripled.
Zones above 701 are worth 5x more bonus.
Trivia[]
- The challenges which are not included are Decay, Frugal, Life, Mapocalypse, Crushed, Devastation, Corrupted, Domination, Daily challenges and all Scientist challenges.
- The Headstart Mastery is disabled during Challenge² runs.
- Completing a Challenge² marks the button with a purple background, which fades to white as its record becomes dwarfed by the highest zone completed. As of patch v5.8.0, the button turns black when the record is set to your Obsidian Zone
- In patch v4.6, Obliterated was added as a completely new Challenge², having no corresponding Challenge.
- In patch v4.10, Eradicated was added as a second new Challenge², also having no corresponding Challenge.
