What you can check before running a mission
- The mission type, map, and recommended power level.
- The main reward and additional rewards shown in the alert details.
- Whether the reward is still missing from your Collection Book or already collected.
- Whether the reward is worth adding to Tasks for follow-up.
Collection Book mode versus all rewards mode
Mission Alerts can be reviewed through a Collection Book-focused view or through an all-rewards view. Collection Book mode prioritizes rewards that can be matched to trackable Collection Book items. All rewards mode is useful when you are chasing materials, XP, tickets, currency, or other rewards that matter even when they are not Collection Book entries.
This distinction keeps the alert list useful for two different goals: completing the Collection Book and planning the best missions to run during the daily reset window.
Why this helps day to day
Most players do not need every alert every day. StormBook reduces that noise by helping you see whether a reward is still useful before you spend time loading the mission, checking a spreadsheet, or comparing item names by hand.
Typical flow: open the alert list at reset, scan the rewards you care about, keep the missing ones, and ignore the rewards you already finished.
Built-in database and item matching
StormBook includes an in-app reference database for Collection Book item types such as weapons, traps, heroes, survivors, lead survivors, defenders, and more. That lets the app match alert rewards to the correct item names, rarities, and collection status instead of leaving you with raw internal ids.
Some rewards can match more than one possible Collection Book entry. For example, survivor rewards may require the app to let you choose which exact survivor was collected. StormBook keeps those cases separate from direct one-to-one matches so progress is not marked incorrectly.
From alerts to action
Mission Alerts are the first step in the StormBook workflow. When an alert matters, you can send it into Tasks and Reminders, then update the Collection Book after you complete the mission. That keeps the app focused on what you still need instead of showing three unrelated tools.
V-Bucks and X-Ray Tickets display
StormBook can display currency-style alert rewards as V-Bucks or as X-Ray Tickets, depending on how the player wants to read those rewards. The amount remains the same; the label and icon change so the alert list matches the user's account type and expectations.
Daily reset timing
Mission alerts are organized around the daily reset at 00:00 UTC. The web app displays reset timing so users can tell whether they are looking at the current day's data and how much time remains before the alert list changes.
