The First Descendant: Void Intercept Battles explained

A Void Intercept Battle is a raid that begins once you enter a specific zone with your party in The First Descendant. Your objective will be to defeat the Colossus around the area to win upgrade materials and rewards.

These raids have Standard and Hard difficulty settings, and players will have to meet specific requirements that change depending on the Colossus.

The Void Intercept Battles have a time limit and a Death Count (the total amount of times your party members can die). The mission will fail if you don’t kill the Colossus within the time limit, or if you or your friends are killed more than three times.
