How to Beat Drills by Lamplight: General Insights

Best Teams In General Insights

The presence of Strategem of Variation: Unpredictability requires you bring teams that are able to trigger at least 3 different elemental reactions in order to take advantage of the point game.

Teams such as a Chasca Rainbow team and Hyperbloom teams in general are able to meet this requirement due to the complexity and variation of their elemental reactions.

Rainbow Team Recommended Stratagems

Trigger Elemental Reactions With Chasca and Xilonen

Using both the Variation and Engagement stratagem conditions, your priority is to set up as much Elemental Reactions as possible while leading up to Chasca's DMG rotation.

This results in all of the stratagems having their conditions fulfilled and providing the maximum point bonus.

Hyperbloom Team Recommended Stratagems

Hyperbloom teams also have the ability to trigger Unpredictability's conditions due to the different Elemental Reactions that are possible with that combination.

The other stratagems picked are general-use Stratagems, with Sudden Move's Elemental Burst bonus, Full Preparation's bonus being activated due to Hyperbloom having healers, and Comprehensive Plan's EM bonus.

Trigger Elemental Reactions As Much As Possible

Unpredictability being the fixed Stratagem of Variation means that in order to max out your points, you must trigger as many elemental reactions as possible in order to reap the maximum amount of points.

It is generally worth it to delay killing an opponent until you can trigger the Stratagem's effects. This will almost skyrocket your score to meet all the score milestones with relative ease.
