Master Assault Scenarios
Assault Scenarios challenge you to become an offensive strategist. In these stages, your objective is to deploy Combat Units to overwhelm enemy forces and capture strategically positioned towers within the opposing base. You’re limited to selecting 6 Combat Units and 1 Leadership Skill per stage, making careful planning crucial.
Understanding unit matchups is key to success in Assault Scenarios. Different Combat Unit types have strengths and weaknesses against each other. Analyze the enemy composition and battlefield layout before deploying your units to maximize your tactical advantage.
Comprehensive Assault Scenarios Guide
Excel in Defense Scenarios
In Defense Scenarios, the roles are reversed, and you must protect your base from incoming waves of enemies. Utilize your Combat Units to strategically defend key chokepoints and prevent enemies from breaching your defenses.
A unique element of Defense Scenarios is the Support Beacons dropped by defeated enemies. Collecting these beacons allows you to summon reinforcements, providing crucial tactical flexibility during intense waves.
Detailed Defense Scenarios Guide
Understanding Suppression Rules and Combat Units
To effectively strategize in the Mutual Security Enhancing Simulation, you need to understand the suppression rules and the characteristics of different Combat Units.
Unit Types and Suppression Dynamics
| Unit Types | Characteristics | Strategic Advantages & Disadvantages |
|---|---|---|
| Single-Target | Specializes in focusing damage on individual targets. | Strong against AoE units due to concentrated fire. Weak against Team units which can overwhelm them with numbers. |
| Team | Units that excel in group combat, overwhelming single targets with sheer numbers. | Strong against Single-Target units by outnumbering and swarming them. Weak against AoE units that can efficiently clear groups. |
| AoE | Units designed to deal damage to multiple enemies simultaneously. | Strong against Team units by clearing groups effectively. Weak against Single-Target units due to potentially lower focus damage. |
| Melee | Close-combat units, effective at direct engagements. | Strong against Ranged units by closing the distance and engaging in melee. Weak against Flying units that can bypass melee range. |
| Ranged | Units that attack from a distance, maintaining safety while dealing damage. | Strong against Flying units by attacking them while they are airborne. Weak against Melee units that can quickly close in and engage. |
| Flying | Airborne units capable of bypassing ground-based melee units. | Strong against Melee units by avoiding their attacks. Weak against Ranged units that can target them in the air. |
Unit Status Effects
| Unit Status | Characteristics | Strategic Implications |
|---|---|---|
| Siege | Specifically targets Stronghold mechanisms, ignoring other enemy units. | Ideal for quickly capturing objectives but vulnerable to enemy combat units if not protected. |
| Cannot Target Flying | Unable to attack Flying Units, making them vulnerable to aerial assaults. | Requires support from units that can target flying enemies to cover their weakness. |
| Deploy Freely | Can be placed anywhere on the battlefield, even outside your base territory. | Offers tactical flexibility for aggressive plays or flanking maneuvers. |
Leadership Skills to Turn the Tide
Leadership Skills are powerful abilities that can significantly impact the battlefield. Choose your Leadership Skill wisely to complement your Combat Unit strategy.
| Skill and Description | Strategic Use |
|---|---|
| Sweeping Whirlwind The wild winds converge, drawing in opponents within a certain radius for 6 seconds and dealing Anemo DMG. 45 second CD. Has 2 initial usages. |
Excellent for crowd control, grouping enemies together for AoE attacks, or disrupting enemy formations. |
| Blazing Breakthrough Unleashes flames that deal Pyro DMG to opponents and lower their DEF. 45 second CD. Has 2 initial usages. |
Ideal for weakening tanky enemies or dealing burst damage to groups, especially effective against enemies weak to Pyro. |
| Momentous Wave Attack your opponents with billowing waves, dealing AoE Hydro DMG, and causing nearby allied units to recover health over the next 2.5 seconds. 45 second CD. Has 2 initial usages. |
Provides both offensive and defensive utility, damaging enemies while sustaining your units, useful in prolonged engagements. |
