If you've ever joined the Crazy Joe event in Whiteout Survival, you already know the adrenaline rush it brings. For forty minutes straight, bandits throw everything they've got at your city and your Alliance HQ, and your job is to survive the storm while earning as many points as possible. Sounds simple? It isn't.
Players who walk into Crazy Joe unprepared usually end up with poor scores and wasted effort. That's why I've put together this Whiteout Survival Crazy Joe guide to help you and your alliance not just survive but dominate the event. Let's begin by understanding it.

At its core, the Crazy Joe event is about surviving 20 waves of attacks. These bandits don't come lightly; they ramp up in difficulty as the waves progress. Here is what you'll face:
●Waves 1–6 & 8–9, 11–13, 15–16, 18–19: These target all players in your alliance.
●Waves 7, 14, 17: Target only players who are online. These waves offer bonus points, so being active here is highly beneficial.
●Waves 10 & 20: Attack the Alliance HQ. This is where everyone must rally together.
Each alliance's R4 or R5 leaders are responsible for activating the event and selecting the difficulty level. There are 21 Whiteout Survival Crazy Joe difficulty levels, and you can't skip ahead; you must beat one level before unlocking the next.

Every decision you make during Whiteout Survival Crazy Joe affects your score. When you're defending your city, the score you rack up is based on how many of the attackers you take out. If you wipe out the entire wave, you snag the max points award. Even if your city is defended primarily by reinforcements, you still receive credit for the kills.
Reinforcing other members' work in a slightly different way. You earn points based on the enemies your troops defeat, though at a reduced rate compared to the city owner. It's still worth it because the more places your troops are active, the more points you collect.
If your city is defeated twice, you stop receiving attacks, but you can still score by reinforcing allies. This means no one is ever truly out of the game, even if their defenses fall early.
The key to doing well in Whiteout Survival Crazy Joe starts before the first bandit even shows up. Communication is everything. You'll want as many members online as possible, especially during the waves that target active players. Alliances that plan, assign roles, set troop strategies, and make sure everyone knows their job are the ones that usually rank higher.
It also helps to send reinforcements to your alliance mates before the event begins. This way, their cities are better defended from the start, and you immediately rack up points as waves begin. Don't forget to activate buffs or pets you have lying around. A slight increase in troop stats can make a surprisingly big difference when the difficulty ramps up.
Now let's talk about practical tactics. If you want to dominate, here's what works:

This is hands down the most effective trick. You and your allies should swap troops. You send your army to reinforce them, and they do the same for you. That way, both of you earn points from kills in each other's cities. Done right, this can nearly double your points.
With LDCloud's sharing function, you can also let trusted alliance mates step in and help manage your reinforcements if you're offline, keeping your strategy running smoothly.
In Crazy Joe, the infantry are the real stars. They engage first, deal the most kills, and maximize your points. The ideal Whiteout Survival Crazy Joe troops ratio is:
●90% Infantry
●10% Lancers
Marksmen aren't very effective here, so save them for other modes.
Some alliances use a “zero defense” approach. You send all your troops to reinforce allies. Then you leave your city empty, so if Crazy Joe attacks it, you don't lose points.
This way, you maximize points by having your troops active elsewhere. But be careful, coordinate with your alliance so nobody accidentally leaves cities undefended.
After wave 9, recall your best troops and send them to the HQ for wave 10. Repeat this after wave 19 to get them back in position for wave 20. Missing this timing can cost your alliance crucial points.
Even players who know the event can make costly mistakes. One of the biggest is healing troops during the event. It might seem wise, but healed units return to your city and reduce the effectiveness of reinforcements sent by others. This lowers overall kills and, by extension, everyone's points.
Another frequent error is piling too many Whiteout Survival Crazy Joe reinforcements into a single city. When too many troops are stacked in one place, the kills get spread too thin, and nobody scores as much as they could have. It's better to distribute support across weaker defenses to maximize point potential.
And of course, poor communication is the silent killer of many runs. Whiteout Survival Crazy Joe is a team event at its core. If people aren't on the same page, HQ defenses crumble, reinforcements are wasted, and everyone's rewards suffer.
This is another spot where LDCloud helps, since the game stays online 24/7 in the cloud, you won't miss crucial coordination messages or HQ calls even when you step away from your device.

Why put yourself through the chaos? Because the rewards are worth it. You can score three main types:
●Personal rewards: Based on your individual score. These often include resources, Polishing Solution, and Hardened Alloy.
●Alliance rewards: These are given based on your alliance's total score compared to others.
●Milestone rewards: Unlockable when you or your alliance hit certain point thresholds. These include Alliance Tokens and other valuable items.
As your state matures, rewards scale up. The higher the difficulty your alliance can clear, the better the loot.
The Whiteout Survival Crazy Joe event is chaotic, intense, but when you play it right, it is highly rewarding. By preparing early, leaning on infantry, coordinating troop swaps, and timing your recalls for HQ waves, you can improve your score and secure top rewards. Avoid the common mistakes, keep your alliance in sync, and you'll find yourself looking forward to Crazy Joe rather than dreading it.
