Match each pictured shape to the colour seen in your match. A number and direction with the same colour tell you which tower leg to strike.
Record all eight tile colours before striking the tower.
Find North before striking. It is the pylon leg beside the photographed tile spawn, facing away from the Power Building. The other legs follow compass order around the tower. Use Galvaknuckles only after the quest has lit the legs. A wrong order means waiting until the next round.
Eight tiles occupy these possible positions. The reference chart shows the shapes; its printed colours are not your match’s colour assignments.
