This strategy applies to the first and third waves in both halves of the stage. Focus on targeting the ranged enemies to draw them in close, allowing the melee enemies to approach as well.
When fighting the Elite enemies in Waves 2 and 4, you should use Defensive Assists to deal a huge amount of Daze.
How to Do Perfect and Quick Assists
For the final wave in the Second Half, focus your attacks on the Guardian MK II since the Patrol Jaegers will follow you around and act as collateral damage.
