To clear Rivalry Ridge 01-1 in Mecharashi and secure all stage rewards using only assist pilots, you must finish the encounter within six turns. Achieving full completion relies on optimizing Field Upgrades for mobility and damage, focusing fire on key mech parts, and maintaining strict turn efficiency without needing a heavily upgraded personal roster.
Stage Preparation and Upgrades
Before launching the mission, set up your pre-deployment bonuses and review your pre-assigned unit roles:
- Field Upgrades: Select passive bonuses that boost pilot mobility and damage output. Prioritize upgrades that reduce terrain movement penalties or extend attack range, allowing assist units to strike hostiles while remaining outside heavy retaliation zones.
- Assist Squad Setup: Because the stage provides pre-set assist pilots, success depends on leveraging their base capabilities. Place durable damage dealers at the front of your formation and keep supporting units positioned safely behind cover.
Turn-by-Turn Walkthrough
Turn 1: Map Positioning and Early Clears
Advance your frontline attackers toward the primary targets while keeping your support mechs grouped safely behind cover. Focus attacks on low-health enemies immediately to destroy them before they can chip away at your squad's armor. Avoid pushing too deep into the central enemy formation, which leaves your units vulnerable to flanking attacks.
Turns 2 and 3: Frontline Break and Part Breaking
Push aggressively into the enemy frontline. Target mobile hostiles and long-range attackers first. Use assist pilot active skills to break specific weapon parts on enemy mechs, limiting their accuracy and counter-attack threat. Conserve action points whenever possible by taking direct movement paths rather than sprinting.
Turns 4 and 5: Mid-Game Positioning and Flanking
Consolidate your squad as enemy density drops. Use remaining support skills to restore action points or repair damaged armor on frontline units, while remaining aware of incoming enemy reinforcement locations. During Turn 5, maneuver your units to target enemy flanks or rear armor to trigger damage bonuses ahead of the final phase.
Turn 6: Cleanup and Final Objectives
Use the sixth turn to destroy remaining hostiles, eliminate any elite targets guarding the exit area, and collect remaining stage objectives. Ensure every unit performs a productive damage or support action on this final turn to complete the stage within the six-turn limit.
