Focus on Defeating Nemesis Enemies

To quickly gather points, you need to defeat the first few waves of mob enemies as fast as possible and prioritize on defeating the Nemesis enemies when they show up! Defeating Nemesis Enemies will grant you a lot more points!

Target Enemy Weakspots

Enemies like the Ruin Guards, Ruin Graders, and Ruin Drakes have weakspots on their heads or other glowing parts of their body. Use Aimed Shots from bow characters to quickly immobilize those enemies.
