Mechanici Related Challenges Strategy:

  • To complete challenges requiring high Mechanici levels (Lv. 6), play until Difficulty 4 (Multiplier 1.6) is unlocked.
  • Upgrade the Recovery Mechanicus to Level 3 early to increase Veneficus Sigil gain.
  • In Difficulty 4, place 2-3 Recovery Mechanici and prioritize the Fearless Mystic Art for maximum Sigils (goal: 1,200).
  • Level all Mechanici equally to Lv. 4, then Lv. 5, and finally Lv. 6.

Difficulty Related Challenges Strategy:

  • The first challenge (Difficulty 1) is easy to complete while learning the mode.
  • For higher difficulties, ensure all six Mechanici are fully upgraded before attempting.
  • For defeating all enemies: Avoid the Fearless Mystic Art. Choose Mystic Arts that counter the current enemy elements (e.g., Cryo/Hydro/Anemo Mechanici ATK 75% against Pyro enemies).
  • For achieving high scores: Place Mechanici only at necessary choke points with the correct elemental counters. Avoid placing a Pyro Mechanici against Pyro enemies. Attempt Fearless Mystic Arts early to build points.
