Here are my weekly challenge tips for this week's event - Boss Team Vanquish, if anyone is aiming for those weekly pool of Rainbow Stars:
1. Win a Match. This challenge only requires you to get a single win, so it should be relatively straightforward. As usual, if you get placed during a match, you may be placed on the winning team (I did when I did this challenge). If so, you should just get your win easily. Either way, try your best to help your team and make sure you get your grasp on that win. As this mode is a variant of the regular Team Vanquish, 3 things are very important to consider while doing this mode, just like normal Team Vanquish: Vanquishes, Revives and Healing. If you can do that, hopefully you and your team can win.
- Vanquishes are very important as they give your team points, which is the main objective of this mode. When your team gets 50 points, you win, so vanquishes are very important to aim for. It is important to try not to get vanquished yourself when you can as your opponents get 1 point on their team as a result. Being unrevivable after being vanquished is not very good as your opponents' team gets to keep the 1 point they earn, and you can't be revived.
- Revives are very important as well, it has the opposite effect, instead of giving your team 1 point by achieving a successful revive, you take 1 point off your opponents' team which is very handy as it gives your fallen teammate another go at vanquishing opponents and you deny the other team's point, reducing their chances of winning. Using upgrades like Refreshing Revive, Super Saviour and Revive Reward and so on are useful as it makes it easier to achieve revives or rewards you for your effort.
- Healing is important as it keeps you and your teammates alive, reducing your or their chance of being vanquished. Opponents are looking for vanquishes and by keeping you and your team alive, you hopefully prevent them from getting points. Although you can always try and revive them if you get vanquished. As this variant of Team Vanquish has bosses, it may be useful to keep the bosses healed as they have a lower chance of being vanquished, although if they do they can't be revived and your opponents get about 3-5 points for that vanquish, so be careful.
For this reason, Scientists and Sunflowers are useful as they can heal allies at any time and can revive allies quickly and to full health. On top of that, they have very good revive upgrades that you start with before you even promote them the first time. It may also be worth waiting for a revive if you are vanquished.
Vanquishes are also very important though, so if you would rather do that, try to go as an Attack character and/or a character with damaging abilites. Then, go forth, conquer, and aim for as many direct/shared vanquishes and assists as possible. Hopefully your team will win!
Lastly, always try and help your team whenever you can. Stick with your team when you can, back them up, and make sure to try and use your chosen character to the best of your abilities.
2. Get 5 Vanquishes in a Single Match. This one should not be particularly time-consuming, but you need to earn 5 vanquishes in a single match, it can't carry over between matches. This does include shared vanquishes. For best results, it's best to attempt this challenge when you have a full match ahead of you. That way you will maximise your time you have to get these vanquishes. It's also best if you try to complete this challenge quickly so that you can move on to the last challenge, which will take a while. For this challenge, Attack characters are most likely the best choice as they are designed to deal high damage and to get many vanquishes. Stay with your teammates if possible so you are less likely to be vanquished while trying to vanquish your enemies. But truly, it does not matter which character you choose too much for your vanquishes but make sure to try and use your attacks and abilities to your advantage so that you can achieve these vanquishes. If you are involved in 10% or more of the vanquishes in one match (and your team wins), you should obtain this challenge. This is not as difficult as other vanquish challenge as you don't need as many, but you must do 5 or more in a single match as a catch!
3. Win 3 Matches. This challenge, let's be honest here, is basically the same as the first one. The only main difference is that it will take longer than the first one, unless you are lucky. You need 3 wins instead of 1. Try to use the same tactics as the first challenge here, as they will work here as well. Just remember that this challenge will take a significant amount of time to complete. Try and complete your first two challenges first so you can get straight onto this last one. Good luck, should you be up to the task! 👍 This challenge is not very difficult, thankfully, but it may take some time to complete.
That's it for now! 🙂
