Pick your Wilderness Compass skill by selecting Configure on the Match Preparation board! Make use of the gadget skills, such as the ability to create wind currents, to help you find all the balloons faster!

| Leapbless | Increases character's jump height. |
|---|---|
| Windbless | Creates a wind current in the vicinity. |
| Treasurebless | Increases Wilderness Balloon search radius. |
| Scoutbless | 1. Increases character movement speed. 2. Increases Wilderness Balloon search radius. |
| Trovebless | 1. Increases your character's jump height. 2. Increases the Wilderness Balloon search radius. |
| Speedbless | 1. Increases your character's Movement SPD. 2. Greatly decreases your character's Stamina consumption. |
Take note that you can only use one blessing during each challenge!
It's best that you use blessings that can help you jump over terrains to complete the stages faster. If you already have characters that can help you with exploration like Kazuha, Treasurebless makes it easier for you to collect the balloons in your vicinity.

Upon starting the event, you will be placed in a set location as your starting point. Inside this area, collect all balloons within the time limit to complete the challenge.
You can use your character's skills and talents, so feel free to arrange your team composition however you like!
