SNAP! Shining Strike Day 1 Guide

Objectives
Check Mark Take a picture of an Agent applying an Attribute Anomaly
Check Mark The picture contains a Bangboo
Check Mark The picture uses the Cinematic frame
Trial Agents
Trial Bangboo
Filter Buff • When successfully completing the main target shooting requirements, you'll receive Filter Effect and Filter Effect will gain a permanent enhancement!
• This round's Filter Effect will increase Agents' Anomaly DMG.
Enemies & Weakneses

Rely on Alice's Polarity Assault

In Stage 1, your task is to capture an Agent inflicting an Attribute Anomaly while keeping Robin in frame, all while using the new Cinematic frame.

The easiest way to achieve this is by using Alice's Polarity Assault Anomaly, which bypasses and ignores Anomaly Buildup gauges and instantly inflicts Assault. However, with Yuzuha's help, inflicting ordinary Anomalies manually is sure to be a breeze.

SNAP! Shining Strike Day 2 Guide

Objectives
Check Mark Take a picture of an Agent using an Aftershock
Check Mark The picture contains two Agents
Check Mark The picture uses the Hollow frame
Trial Agents
Trial Bangboo
Filter Buff • When successfully completing the main target shooting requirements, you'll receive Filter Effect and Filter Effect will gain a permanent enhancement!
• This round's Filter Effect will increase Agents' Aftershock DMG.
Enemies & Weakneses

Rely on Heavy Attacks to Activate Aftershocks

In Stage 2, your task will be to capture at least 2 Agents at the same time using the Hollow frame, with one of them using an Aftershock.

Set everything up by having Trigger accumulate Purge and making sure Orphie and Magus have enough Energy to launch their own Aftershocks. Then, rely on Seed's heavy attacks to trigger both of them, then take your shot!

SNAP! Shining Strike Day 3 Guide

Objectives
Check Mark Take a picture of an Agent using an Ultimate
Check Mark The picture contains at least one enemy
Check Mark The picture uses the Gilded frame
Trial Agents
Trial Bangboo
Filter Buff • When successfully completing the main target shooting requirements, you'll receive Filter Effect and Filter Effect will gain a permanent enhancement!
• This round's Filter Effect will grant high Decibels.
Enemies & Weakneses


Accumulate Technique Points

For Stage 3, try as much as you can to stack up on Yixuan's Technique Points apart from accumulating Decibels via your battle performance and taking advantage of the stage's buffs.

Your main goal is to take a photo of an Agent using an Ultimate, so having Yixuan fill up her Technique Points and combining that with 3000 Decibels will result in 2 consecutive Ultimates, leading to more photo ops!

SNAP! Shining Strike Day 4 Guide

Objectives
Check Mark Take a picture of an Agent using an Defensive Assist
Check Mark The picture contains at least one enemy
Check Mark The picture uses the Magazine Cover frame
Trial Agents
Trial Bangboo
Filter Buff • When successfully completing the main target shooting requirements, you'll receive Filter Effect and Filter Effect will gain a permanent enhancement!
• This round's Filter Effect will grant increase Agents' Defensive Assist Daze.
Enemies & Weakneses

Bide Your Time for Attack Cues

Your job on Day 4 is to capture an Agent using a Defensive Assist. Thankfully, all the trial Agents in this stage can do so, and the attacks of all the enemies in it are perfectly parryable and easy to predict.

It's better if you don't move or attack too much, as some of your Agents' attack animations may make the golden cue difficult to see. Instead, wait for them to appear, then initiate your Defensive Assist and take your shot!

SNAP! Shining Strike Day 5 Guide

Objectives
Check Mark Take a picture of an Agent using recovering HP
Check Mark The picture contains a Bangboo
Check Mark The picture uses the Film frame
Trial Agents
Trial Bangboo
Filter Buff • When successfully completing the main target shooting requirements, you'll receive Filter Effect and Filter Effect will gain a permanent enhancement!
• This round's Filter Effect will grant increase Agents' Max HP
Enemies & Weakneses

Rely on Yidhari's EX Special Attack

The main goal for Day 5 is to capture an Agent whilst they are recovering HP. The cue for this is green lights surrounding the Agent. The easiest way to achieve this is to use Yidhari's EX Special Attack, which recovers her HP on hit.

Alternatively, you can use the 3rd hit of her Basic Attack string, but you'll really have to keep an eye out for when it hits. Finally, when push comes to shove, use Lucia's Ultimate as it periodically restores HP to your active character, giving you more photo ops!

SNAP! Shining Strike Day 6 Guide

Objectives
Check Mark Take a picture of an Agent using an EX Special Attack
Check Mark The picture contains at least one enemy
Check Mark The picture uses the Poster frame
Trial Agents
Trial Bangboo
Filter Buff • When successfully completing the main target shooting requirements, you'll receive Filter Effect and Filter Effect will gain a permanent enhancement!
• This round's Filter Effect will grant increase Agents' Special Attack DMG.
Enemies & Weakneses

Preserve Burnice's Energy

Your task for Day 6 is to capture an Agent using an EX Special Attack. To achieve this as much as possible, best preserve Burnice's Energy and only cast her EX Special Attack in bursts instead of holding it down.

This will ensure you get as many photo ops as possible in the shortest amount of time!
