Silver Palace: How to Get 3-Star Clears in Long-Term Challenges

To earn three-star completions in long-term challenges such as Hypothetical Experiment Stage 10 in Silver Palace, save your high-damage ultimates for staggered boss windows, cancel skill recovery animations to save fight time, and maintain offensive pressure without over-committing team cooldowns simultaneously.

Because closed beta testing performance relies heavily on strict clear times and minimal squad damage, meeting the three-star threshold requires tactical execution rather than relying solely on high character rarity.

Synchronize High-Burst Skill Windows

Securing three stars requires maximizing damage output during brief boss vulnerability windows rather than casting abilities as soon as off cooldown.

• Save Ultimates for Weakened States: Hold high-damage abilities until the boss enters a staggered, parried, or transition phase. Unleashing damage during these states bypasses health-gating mechanics and reduces time spent in dangerous combat phases.
• Select Fast-Animation Burst Units: Prioritize characters with immediate damage delivery over units with prolonged cast animations. Long wind-up times reduce damage efficiency during short stagger windows.
• Stagger Secondary Cooldowns: Alternate offensive skill usage across your primary damage dealers so at least one unit maintains pressure while others await cooldown resets.

Execute Animation Canceling and Blind-Spot Positioning

Meeting tight challenge timers requires eliminating empty animation frames and staying close to targets to build stagger meters continuously.

1. Watch character attack animations in practice settings to identify the exact frame damage numbers appear on screen.
2. Input a movement or dodge command immediately after damage registers to cut the recovery animation.
3. Chain your next attack or reposition without waiting for the character's full animation reset.
4. Position your squad in boss blind spots during heavy attack telegraphs to maintain continuous damage output without retreating to arena edges.

Balance Squad Composition and Cooldown Resets

Pure damage output will fail a three-star run if your squad wipes mid-challenge. Adjust your team composition to balance damage output with survival mechanics.

If high-level mechanics repeatedly down your offensive units, replace one pure damage dealer with a support offering shields or damage reduction. Compensate for the reduced squad DPS by playing aggressively inside boss blind spots to ensure steady progress toward the three-star completion time.
