The two halves of Ambush Node 2 have the weakness and resistance flipped. In this half, you will be up against machines that are weak to Electric but resistant to Fire.

Bringing along a Shock Team or a Mono-Electric Team is a great option for cancelling incoming attacks, incapacitating enemies, and breaking shields instantly. You can use an Ether Team for more variety.

As for the second half, you will be up against one enemy that is weak to Fire but resistant to Electric. A Mono-Fire Team is the way to go, with Soldier 11 being replaceable with Zhu Yuan for more variety.

You can also opt for the Physical route with Caesar providing Daze and Shield capabilities. You can opt for a Mono-Calydon Team with Lucy being replaceable with Jane for an Assault Team!

How to Beat Ambush Node 2

Ambush Node 2 First Half

Target the Lightfoot Rover First

Target the Lightfoot Rover First

The more dangerous enemy in this half is the Heavy Striker, so eliminating any distractions before eliminating it will make for a much easier and less deadly encounter.

The Lightfoot Rover will send out drones and fire projectiles at you from afar that will deal great DMG if you let them hit you. Eradicate it first, then move onto the Heavy Striker, which has attack patterns that are much easier to predict.

Inflict Shock Often

Inflict Shock Often

To further negate as much DMG as possible, it would be wise to inflict Shock often to the machines you're up against.

Not only will it interrupt their actions and effectively cancel any incoming attacks, it will also incapacitate them for a short time, presenting you with opportunities for your own attacks!

Ambush Node 2 Second Half

Use Dodge Counters Often

Use Dodge Counters Often

Taking into account this stage's effect and the Hati Pack Leader's relatively easy-to-predict attack patterns, Dodge Counters are your key to success.

Watch out for attack cues, dodge accordingly, and initiate Dodge Counters as often as you can! In no time, you'll be able to stun the Pack Leader and really dish out massive DMG! Don't forget to use your Perfect Assists whenever necessary!
