Summary[]

  • After the start of the event, a new challenge will become available each day. Each challenge will include 3 battle stages.

  • After the start of the event, a new challenge will become available each day. Each challenge will include 3 battle stages.
  • You will be provided with two trial characters during each challenge. The more of your own characters in your party, and the higher level they are, the more Load you will have to exchange and the higher level Buff Modules you will be able to equip.
  • During the challenge, using Pressurized Impactors will provide enormous assistance, enabling you to activate Buff Modules and release "high-pressure shockwaves."
  • You must charge the Pressurized Impactors before you can release high-pressure shockwaves. Charging requires increasing the pressure 3 times. Use the right timing to stop the pressure increases within proper range to successfully charge.
  • Note that high-pressure shockwave damage is affected by the charging results.

Tutorial[]

Tutorial The Peaks and Troughs of Life 1
Each of the test stages for "The Peaks and Troughs of Life" consists of 3 combat rounds. A party must be prepared for each combat round. The more of your own characters you deploy and the higher their Levels, the more Load you have.
Consume Load to equip parties with Buff Modules. The same Buff Module can be used on different parties.

Tutorial The Peaks and Troughs of Life 2
You can use the Pressurized Impactors within the tests to activate the Buff Modules you chose.
Activated Buff Modules will stay active for a while. Use the Pressurized Impactor again to refresh the active duration.

Tutorial The Peaks and Troughs of Life 3
Activating the Pressurized Impactor will initiate 3 pressure increases. When this happens, you must stop the pressure increase at the right moment to achieve the perfect amount of pressure.

Tutorial The Peaks and Troughs of Life 4
When the Pressurized Impactor's pressure increases, the more perfect pressurizations you obtain, the greater the pressure level of the shockwave unleashed, and the greater the DMG said shockwave will deal (there are 3 levels and 3 DMG brackets in total).
