Special Event Challenge Guide
Take Advantage of Stage Effects
Stage effects are active in both Challenge 1 and 2. Hikari Shinomiya and Aoi Kaguragi are compatible with the stage effects, so we highly recommend adding them to your squad for smoother clears.
Use AoE/Blast Attack Characters
The Challenge stage effects apply a DMG Taken Increase debuff when attacking Kaiju. To stack this debuff faster, bring characters like Isao Shinomiya (Prime Fist) or Mina Ashiro (Superb Combination) who specialize in AoE or Blast Attacks.
| Name | Key Features |
 Isao (Prime Fist) | - AoE Combat/Follow-Up/Ultimate Skills - Stack Valor to gain attack buffs - Great for destroying Plates in Challenge 2 |
 Mina (Superb Combination) | - Blast Combat/Extra/Ultimate Attacks - Self-buffs CRIT Rate & gains Shields - Great for destroying Plates in both Challenges |
 Kikoru (The Inherited Will) | - Blast Combat/Ultimate Skills - Slaps DEF Down & SPD Down on enemies - Great for destroying Plates in Challenge 2 |
 Soshiro (United Front) | - Blast Combat Skill outside Resonance - Deals massive burst damage to miniature/midsized Kaiju in Resonance state |
 Rin Shinonome | - AoE Combat/Follow-Up/Ultimate - Great for destroying Plates in both Challenges - Her Additional Passive Skill gives her a high Ultimate rotation rate |
 Gen (Japan's Strongest Combatant) | - Blast Combat/Ultimate Skills - Great for destroying Plates in both Challenges |
 Soshiro (Sword Technique) | - AoE Combat Skill - Effective against miniature Kaiju due to his Additional Passive Skill 1 |
Special Event Challenge Best Teams
Best Team for Special Event Challenge 1
 Sagan Shinomiya |  Aoi Kaguragi |  Hikari Shinomiya | Mina Ashiro |
This is a team composition that chips away at the enemy's HP with Aoi and Hikari, whose Wind Attribute attack DMG dealt is increased by the stage effect. The slot for Mina Ashiro (Superb Combination) can be swapped with other Shot-type characters who have AoE or Blast Attacks, such as Rin or Gen (Japan's Strongest Combatant).
Best Team for Special Event Challenge 2
| Sagan Shinomiya | Aoi Kaguragi | Hikari Shinomiya | Isao Shinomiya |
Since many enemies (5) appear in Waves 1 and 2 of Challenge 2, this team uses Isao Shinomiya (Prime), who can perform AoE Attacks, as the Blast/Shot-type Attacker. If you don't have Isao (Prime), we recommend using Kikoru (The Inherited Will), who has a Blast Attack.
Get Characters to Lv. 100
The Kaiju in Challenge 1 and 2 are Lv. 100. If your characters are underleveled compared to the Kaiju, your DMG dealt decreases, and DMG taken increases. Level all characters used in the Challenge to Lv. 100.
Efficiently Break Plates
Kaiju and Plates differ between Challenge 1 and 2. Build a team that can effectively shred enemy Plates.
Challenge 1 Kaiju and Plates
Challenge 2 Kaiju and Plates
Use a Defender
In Challenge 1 and 2, multiple Kaiju appear. Include one Defender like Sagan Shinomiya to protect allies from defeat.
Recommended Defenders
| Name | Features |
| Sagan Shinomiya | - Combat Skill applies Taunt to all enemies and grants herself a Shield → Taunt prevents ally damage - Ultimate increases ATK for all allies |
 Isao Shinomiya | - Combat Skill grants Shields to all allies - Effective Defender in both challenges - Boosts ally DMG dealt based on active Shields |
 Akari Minase | - Key healer for ally sustain - Boosts Recovery for low-HP allies - Grants Ultimate Gauge Charge Rate increase |
