Gauntlet (Restricted)
Conquer the Gauntlet and receive the Hero's Laurels.
The Gauntlet is largely the same flow regardless the category or ruleset, as your attack is artificially capped at 1 inside. Besides the first wave, your own personal preference for how to tackle the Gauntlet is largely fine.
Fairy Wave
-
Immediately activate the fairy wave (far left). Your objective in this wave will be to damage down to peril state to activate Orange Peril Ring for the remaining waves.
-
Stand on the upper-right of the arena and start sniping the fairies as they spawn. You should be able to take out 10 before any become a threat.
-
You'll quickly run out of mana--run through the dead fairies to replenish. Rinse and repeat until you are in peril state, then down the last fairy.
Remaining Waves
-
Again, preference: My personal order: Fairies, Mages, Rudelings, Garden Knights, Frogs, Skeletons. I like using the extra lure for the Mages wave.
-
You do not need to activate the health wave to complete the Gauntlet.
Laurels
-
While the Laurels chest is spawning in, equip bombs. As soon as you acquire Laurels, exit the Gauntlet to the south.
