Fair Game (Restricted Mode) Tips and Strategies

Fair Game General Tips

Proper Positioning and keeping an eye on your allies' HP is the key to getting an S rank for this challenge. Visions appear in slow motion, but the timer doesn't slow down apparently. Keep your Allies' HP above 50% at all times to improve your clear time.

Wave 1 Enemies and Strategies

You'll want to let Shulk and Reyn enter the fray before making any actions. This is to prevent your aggro from rising, which will cause them to separate from each other, making your area attacks weaker.

Position yourself in a way so that you can hit them all with Break Shot for maximum efficiency. Aside from that, just watch your allies' HP and heal anyone whose HP reaches 50% or lower.

Wave 2 Enemies and Strategies

Start the battle and focus on healing your allies. Break Shot will likely be on cooldown, so it's best to just heal your allies. Use Cool Off if no ally needs healing, or only a single enemy remains so you can enter the next wave with 0 rifle heat.

Wave 3 Enemies and Strategies

Start the battle, then use Break Shot at an angle where you can hit the majority of them. Follow it up with a Chain Attack using Break Shot, Stream Edge, and War Swing for maximum Area damage. Their HP should be around 50%, so eliminate them one by one to end the challenge.
