General Tips

• Your Dual Gun and Close Combat Skill Ranks will carry over into the test, so having higher ranks will be useful.
  • Defense and Counterattack can be used to stop the Ghast enemies from executing their full combo, which can easily overwhelm players.
  • Crisis Escape can be used in an emergency to drop enemy aggro.
• You start with 3,000 Mana Bullets, 10 HP 300 Potions , 10 MP 300 Potions, and 10 Stamina 300 Potions.
  • You may wish to hotkey these Potions before starting the Advancement Test.
• Defeating three enemies by any means will reset Flash Launcher's cooldown.
  • Bullet Slide and Bullet Storm are effective ways to reset Flash Launcher's Cooldown.
  • Do not use Shooting Rush as it will likely draw multi-aggro.
• Use Way of the Gun early in the test so that you can use it a second time.
• Critical Flash Launcher damage is important, because attacks with high damage provide crucial bonus points.
• Red Ghasts are significantly less likely to die to a single Flash Launcher; either weaken the Red Ghast beforehand or use another skill to finish it off.
• Players can disable names and chat using Ctrl+N to improve visibility of enemy skills.
