How to Get SS Rank in Missions

This is a guide to getting SS ranks during battles and missions in No More Heroes 3 for the Nintendo Switch. Read on to learn how the ranking system works and how to increase your rank by finishing missions quickly, taking less damage, and using Death Glove Skills.

How to Get SS Rank

Finish Mission Quickly

The amount of time it takes for you to complete a mission influences your final rank. To increase your ranking score, finish the battle quickly by taking out all enemies as fast you can. Focus on getting higher DPS over well-timed slashes.

Take Less Damage

Be conscious of the amount of damage you take during the mission, as the more damage you take, the lower your possible rank. Try to dodge and block as many attacks as possible while still delivering tons of damage to your opponents.

Use Death Glove Skills

Using Death Glove Skills can also increase your rank while at the same time may help you take down more defensive enemies quicker. As soon as a Death Glove Skill becomes available, use it as it can pull your rank up higher.
