What Is Cell Fusion?
Way To Upgrade Cells In Dauntless
Cell Fusion in Dauntless is a way to make your Cells more powerful. This will upgrade their rarity, therefore improving the specific perk that they can implement onto your gear.
Cells Should Be Same Rarity To Upgrade/Sacrifice
In order to successfully fuse Cells, they need to be of the same rarity. Green Cells can only be fused with other green ones, blue Cells with other blue ones, and etc.
Takes Real-Life Time To Fuse
Fusing Cells together take a certain number of hours, depending on their rarity. This is real-life time that needs to pass by before you're able to retrieve the Cell you fused.
Cell Fusion Time Needed Per Rarity
Rarity | Hours |
---|---|
Green (Uncommon) | 22 Hrs |
Blue (Rare) | 26 Hrs |
Purple (Epic) | 70 Hrs |
Pay Ace Chips To Hasten Cell Fusion
You can pay the Middleman Ace Chips to speed up the Cell Fusion process. You can earn Ace Chips from the Hunt Pass or purchase them from the Dauntless Store for Platinum - the in-game currency.

Cell Fusion Tips
Equip Cells You Don't Want To Fuse
When you're choosing Cells, you might accidentally choose ones you don't want to fuse. To prevent this, make sure to equip those Cells on any of your gear. If Cells are equipped, they aren't shown in your available Cells for fusion.
Gather Several Same Cells Before Fusing
If there's a specific Cell that you want to power up, it's best to farm as many of that Cell before fusing. You need the exact same Cell to fuse together in order for you to get a higher rarity version of that Cell.
Unlock Additional Cell Fusion Slots
There are 2 additional Cell Fusion slots that The Middleman can offer to unlock for you. This will help you fuse several Cells at a time but will cost Platinum for you to unlock. 1st Fusion Slot will cost 500 Platinum, and the 2nd slot will cost 1000 Platinum.
