The Terror is a Mythic-rarity unit added in Update 4.0 of Universal Tower Defense Z, modeled on As Nodt from Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War. He works as a dedicated support for units carrying the Hollow Destroyer Tag, and his evolved form applies Fear to slow enemies, boost damage taken, and turn foes against each other. The trade-off is a steep spawn cost, so he pairs best with a stable economy.
Quick answer: Pull The Terror from the Special Banner or Selection Banner at 50 Gems per summon, then evolve him into The Terror (Ascension) using 10x Phantom Fragment, 3x Universal Fragment, 6x Burning Fragment, 1x Halo of Fear, and 30,000 Gold.
How to summon The Terror in Universal Tower Defense Z
The Terror comes from the unit gacha, and two banners can produce him. A single pull on either costs 50 Gems, which you earn from redeeming codes, finishing quests, and clearing Acts and Chapters.
Special Banner: The featured units rotate every hour. When the As Nodt-inspired unit sits in the center of the banner, spend your Gems then, because the centered Mythic has a higher pull chance than the other Mythics on the rotation.
Selection Banner: Here you decide which unit takes the center slot. Open the gacha menu, press Select, and pick The Terror. You can choose a fresh featured unit once every 24 hours, so this route gives you direct control over the target.
Evolution materials for The Terror (Ascension)
The base unit evolves into The Terror (Ascension). Select him in the Evolutions menu and submit the full material set below to complete the upgrade.
| Material | Amount |
|---|---|
| Phantom Fragment | 10 |
| Universal Fragment | 3 |
| Burning Fragment | 6 |
| Halo of Fear | 1 |
| Gold | 30,000 |
Fragments and Gold drop from Challenge maps and specific Acts in the Legend Stage. You can also buy various fragments from the Merchant and the Virtual Merchant if you are short on any type.
Halo of Fear is the gated piece. It is a Secret-rarity item sold only in the shop tied to the Hollow Destroyers vs Reapers mode, and it costs 900 Soul War Medals. You earn those Medals by completing runs of that mode, so plan several clears before you can afford the evolution.
The Terror (Ascension) passives and how to use them
The evolved unit peaks with SSS grade on every stat, the Ruler Trait, and Relics that raise both its damage and debuff duration. It performs best surrounded by units that share the Hollow Destroyer Tag, since one of its passives scales directly off nearby Hollow Destroyers.
F – The Fear
- Every 10 seconds, it inflicts Fear on enemies in range for 5 seconds.
- Feared enemies are Slowed by 35% and take +50% Damage.
- Affected enemies turn on one another and attack random foes along the path.
- Knockback: enemies within 20% of the unit’s range are pushed back up to 3 times each.
One of the Hollow Destroyers
For every Hollow Destroyer within its range, excluding The King, the unit gains +50% Damage (multiplicative) and +20% Range. Cluster your Hollow Destroyer units near it to stack this bonus, which also widens the reach of The Fear as your range grows.
The Terror (Ascension) quick stats
| Attribute | Detail |
|---|---|
| Spawn cost | 20,000 Yen |
| Placement limit | 1 |
| Tags | Villain, Peroxide, Hollow Destroyer, Royal Guards |
Because the spawn cost sits at 20,000 Yen and you can only field one copy, place it after your economy stabilizes rather than early in a run. Once it is down and ringed by Hollow Destroyers, the recurring Fear pulse plus the +50% damage taken makes it a strong control-support piece for the modes where those Tags matter.
