Wave-by-Wave Strategy

WAVES
1-30

Easy

Focus on economy. Place Speed Cart immediately, upgrade it fully. Start placing DPS after Wave 5.

Max out Speed Cart firstPlace 1-2 DPS unitsSave money for later waves
WAVES
31-50

Medium

Start scaling your main DPS. Place Virtual Idol to buff your carries. Begin placing Kenpachi for debuffs.

Virtual Idol should be placed by Wave 35Start upgrading main DPSKenpachi for Vulnerability debuff
WAVES
51-70

Hard

Full team should be placed and upgrading. Focus on positioning for maximum buff coverage.

All units should be placedPosition Virtual Idol centrallyUpgrade priority: Main DPS > Buffer > Sub-DPS
WAVES
71-80

Very Hard

This is where builds are tested. Make sure all units are maxed. Proper positioning is crucial.

All units should be near max levelCheck buff coverageBoss waves require timing
WAVES
80+

Extreme

Only well-geared teams with proper traits usually survive. Secret carries such as Jinoo or Ragna are legacy meta recommendations, not confirmed requirements.

Ruler/Sacred traits help carriesMythic relics strongly recommendedPositioning matters more than early over-upgrading

Placement Tips

🎤

Virtual Idol Positioning

Place Virtual Idol where it can reach ALL your DPS units. Its buff range determines your team's effectiveness.

🛒

Speed Cart Placement

Place early and in a safe spot. It doesn't need to be near enemies, just needs to survive.

⚔️

Kenpachi Coverage

Kenpachi's Vulnerability debuff affects enemies in range. Position to hit as many enemies as possible.

🎯

Chokepoint Control

On maps with chokepoints, stack your AoE units there for maximum efficiency.

Common Mistakes

  • Placing all units immediately

    Economy first. Speed Cart should be your first and only unit until Wave 5-10.

  • Ignoring Virtual Idol buff range

    If your DPS isn't in Idol's range, you're wasting damage potential.

  • Delaying economy too long

    Speed Cart/Fastcart should be upgraded early in long runs. Upgrade timing still depends on leaks and owned DPS.

  • Using Infinite to farm Takedowns

    Legacy evolution data marks Story Act 1 as the preferred takedown farm andInfinite Mode as slower for pure takedowns.

Lelouch Quest: Survive 80 Waves

One step of the Lelouch questline requires surviving 80 waves in Infinite mode. Here's how to achieve it:

  • • Bring your best-geared team with proper traits
  • • Economy is key - upgrade Speed Cart/Fastcart early without leaking
  • • Place Virtual Idol by Wave 30-35
  • • Full team should be active by Wave 50
  • • Focus on positioning over rushing upgrades
  • • Consider bringing Admiral for late boss waves
