How to Enable


Unlock Act 3: Maelle

Lumiere World Location

Challenge Modifiers will only unlock during Act 3: Maelle and will not be available prior. Finish the earlier chapters and get through Act 3 to get this feature unlocked.

Note that the feature is designed mainly for endgame fights and we suggest using Challenge Modifiers only if you are in post-game or after finishing the main story of the game to fully utilize its features better.

All Acts and Chapters

Go to any Expedition Flag and Pick Challenges

Challenge Mods 2
Go to any Expedition Flag afterwards and select the Challenges tab, the option is in between New Game+ and Upgrade Expedition Resources. Do note that this is a recent addition and the players need to update to the 1.3.0 patch to have this option appear.

How to Enable Challenge Modifiers Main
You will be in the Challenge Modifiers option screen, of which you can apply a damage cap to your attacks from 99,999 to 999,999 or increase enemy HP up to 100x of their original value.

This allows for more difficult and lengthier fights or even longer testing of equipment builds. These adjustments can be disabled anytime by going through any Expeditonary Flag and ticking Disable for the options modified.
