How to Complete Gibbering Grumbler

How to Complete with 4500 Point Score

To finish the Gibbering Grumbler with 4500 Points without any hitch, make sure to eradicate all the bricks as efficiently as possible.

Not only does it directly increase your point accumulation, it also forces the Gibbering Grumbler Brick Boss to summon new bricks that you can eradicate for bigger points!

How to Achieve 50 Combo Count

The key to gaining more than 50 combo count before the challenge is completed is by being on top of the reactions that you're creating, as well as the angle of the bricks that surround the Gibbering Grumbler Brick Boss.

Leveraging on Detonate reactions can pave way to eradicating bricks more efficiently, and can continuously sustain your combo counter to guarantee the 50 combo count needed before completing the challenge.

Best Modifiers for Shatterdark Day 1

Best Gibbering Grumbler Modifiers
Replicating Collider	In single-player challenges, when there are less than 3 Skill-Ball(s) on the filed, for every 30 hit(s) added to the Combo count, 1 additional Skill-Ball will be launched forward in a random direction when the next successful hit is made using the bar. In Co-Op challenges, the maximum number of Skill-Balls on the field will be 4, and the required Combo count will be increased to 50.
Relative Expansion	After switching characters, the bar will be made wider for 10s.
Concomitant Impact	When there are less than 10 bricks on the board, and the ball lands another hit, the bar will shoot 8 enhanced fireworks ahead. Should these fireworks hit a brick, they will inflict even greater damage than normal. This effect can be triggered once every 4s.

These three modifiers work perfectly well each other, especially on challenges like the Gibbering Grumbler that require efficiency. Replicating Collider will help you eradicate the bricks more efficiently with each spawn of Skill-Ball, complemented by Relative Expansion triggered every switch.

Concomitant Impact helps you clean up whatever brick is left, on top of being able to deal direct damage to the Gibbering Grumbler.

Best Elements for Shatterdark Day 1

Best Element for Shatterdark Day 1
Electro	Pyro	Cryo

Pyro, Electro, and Cryo are the Best Elements for Gibbering Grumbler!

Since the Boss Brick Gibbering Grumbler is hiding behind bricks of mostly Electro, bringing Electro, Pyro, and Cryo can help you create make Akitsu Yuugei: Detonate, Akitsu Yuugei: Detonate, and Akitsu Yuugei: Pierce, all of which can eradicate bricks in bulk.

Not only does this guarantee sustaining Combo Count and securing 4500 Points after the challenge, it will also lessen the need for you to move around because of its high potential to reflect around while destroying bricks.
