Lighthouse

From Whiteout Survival Wiki

The Lighthouse is a key building in Whiteout Survival that provides daily Intel missions — a steady source of valuable rewards including Fire Crystals, Hero Shards, resources, and speedups.

Overview

The Lighthouse functions as a mission hub where players send their Heroes on reconnaissance operations: rescuing survivors, hunting beasts, or investigating dangerous locations. Completing Intel missions is one of the most consistent ways to obtain premium progression resources.

The Lighthouse contains a Searchlight that can be upgraded up to level 20. Higher Searchlight levels unlock more missions per refresh cycle and improve the quality of available missions.

How It Works

  1. Access the Lighthouse and view available Intel missions
  2. Select a mission suited to your heroes' stats
  3. Send heroes to complete the mission (takes real time)
  4. Collect rewards when heroes return
  5. Missions refresh regularly — complete them consistently for maximum rewards

Searchlight Upgrades

Upgrading the Searchlight (up to level 20) provides:

  • More missions available per refresh
  • Higher-quality missions with better rewards
  • Access to missions that reward Fire Crystals (especially at higher Searchlight levels)

Rewards

Intel missions can reward:

  • Hero Shards — Including shards for specific heroes like Natalia, Bahiti, Freya
  • Fire Crystals — Critical for late-game FC progression
  • Basic resources (Meat, Wood, Coal, Iron)
  • Speedups — Construction, research, and training speedups
  • EXP items — Hero EXP and Chief EXP

Expert Bonus

The Agnes Expert boosts Intel mission quality and rewards, making her a priority Expert for players who rely on Lighthouse Intel for Fire Crystal income.

Tips

  • Complete Intel missions every day — they are among the best consistent free rewards in the game
  • Prioritize upgrading the Searchlight to unlock higher-tier missions
  • Level up and star up your heroes to clear harder, more rewarding missions
  • The Agnes Expert significantly improves Intel rewards — unlock her at the Dawn Academy when possible
