To unlock Secret Itachi in Mythic Expedition without relying on Unbound upgrades, spend your stamina exclusively on limited-time event stages using a duo of two high-tier Mythic units. Running a reduced squad concentrates stage experience into your primary carries, allowing non-Unbound units to reach the damage and survivability thresholds required to clear event bosses.
Focus Resources on Event Stages
Secret Itachi requires exclusive event currency rather than standard campaign progression.
- Direct Energy to the Event Map: Stop pushing standard campaign nodes during the event window. Reserve all daily energy strictly for event stages to accumulate the currency needed for unlock milestones.
- Monitor Daily Shop Rotations: Check the event shop daily. Purchasing event summon tickets or unit fragments consistently prevents resource bottlenecks near the end of the event window.
- Avoid Roster Splitting: Do not spend upgrade resources on temporary filler units. Reserve all character materials and high-stat artifacts for your primary two event carries.
Build a Two-Mythic Synergy
Clearing late event nodes without Unbound characters requires strict role division between your two Mythic choices.
| Role | Preferred Unit Characteristics | Strategic Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Frontline Tank / Sustainer | High survivability, self-healing, or crowd control | Draws enemy aggro and stalls wave pushes |
| Backline DPS | Area-of-Effect (AoE) or high single-target burst | Clears minion waves quickly and passes boss DPS checks |
Running only two units split across these roles ensures both characters hit maximum level caps faster than a full six-unit squad, compensating for the lack of Unbound stat bonuses.
Execute Positioning for Event Bosses
Proper lane placement determines whether a two-unit composition survives high-difficulty stages:
- Absorb Initial Aggro: Place your tanking Mythic directly in the lane with the heaviest initial enemy density to prevent mobs from advancing.
- Protect the Damage Dealer: Position your burst DPS unit on the opposite side or behind the tank to keep them free from collateral damage.
- Adjust for Rear Spawns: On stages with flankers or backline spawns, shift your damage dealer closer to the tank or equip a shield-providing artifact to prevent direct wipes.
