You'll be playing as Reyn, and Reyn's job is to draw aggro from allies to himself. Use the command feature to make Shulk target your enemy, and use Aggro increasing arts, such as Mad Taunt and Hammer Beat to stop them from attacking Shulk.
| Enemy (quantity) | Level |
|---|---|
| Colony Krabble (x2) | 21 |
| Marble Krabble (x2) | 22 |
Immediately use Reyn's Sword Drive against the high level Krabble, then use Engage on it. Follow the fight with War Swing to fill Reyn's talent gauge, then use Mad taunt to draw all aggro. Position yourself in a way so that all enemies get lumped together, then keep on using Hammer Beat and Aura Burst to slowly whittle everyone's HP down. Make sure to use Wild Swing against enemies with break to increase your final rating later on.
| Enemy (quantity) | Level |
|---|---|
| Baby Armu (x3) | 22 |
| Baby Armu (x1) | 23 |
Repeat the same strategy from the first wave with the high leveled Armu as your first target. Make sure to not let Shulk die. Reviving allies will cost one bar of the party gauge, which you will need for a chain attack for a higher rating.
| Enemy (quantity) | Level |
|---|---|
| Knuckle Bunnit (x1) | 23 |
| Wood Bunnit(x1) | 24 |
| Junk Bunnit (x1) | 25 |
Repeat the same strategy from the first wave with Junk Bunnit as your first target. Use a Chain Attack before ending the fight to increase your final rating as well, since your party gauge should be filled up from Shulk's arts.
