Billowing Waves: Co-Op Mode
Tranquil Waters: Single Player Mode
You may obtain all rewards by completing challenges in either mode.
➥ During the challenge, the Waverider’s HP will be replaced by Durability. This differs depending on which mode are you playing on:
Billowing Waves (Co-Op): You will lose your obtained Challenge Coins, and enter a Voyage Observer state where you are unable to pick up any Challenge Coins and Prop Lamps. After a period of waiting, the Voyage Observer state will end, and you can continue the challenge.
Tranquil Waters (Single Player): The challenge will end and you will go straight to the score calculation screen.
➥ The Waverider will not be able to use its Heavy Cannon when the challenge begins. You will gain random Techniques by collecting Prop Lamps in each stage. Make use of the these Techniquest to smoothly sail through the challenge.
➥ The event consists of three challenge levels, one of which is chosen at random before you start: Crossing the Thrumming Waves, The Floating Lantern’s Mystique, and Mystical Elevation. View Gameplay Details for the rules of the different stages.
Crossing the Thrumming Waves
The sea lances where danger and opportunity meet are dotted with vortexes and hidden currents that can speed your Waverider up. When the challenge progresses to a specific checkpoint, a giant vortex may appear.
A giant vortex that will pull on your Waverider very strongly is present in this sea region, and large numbers of Challenge Coins can be found at the edges of this vortex.
The Floating Lantern’s Mystique
A great number of Xiao lanterns are floating atop the glimmering waves, and special Luxurious Coins will be present within a few of these Xiao lanterns. When the challenge progress reaches a certain checkpoint, fireworks will go up in the surrounding sea region. Follow their colors and choose the correct Xiao Lantern to solve lantern riddles.
When fireworks go up in the surrounding sea regions, follow their colors and shapes to choose the correct Xiao Lantern and obtain Challenge Coins. If you do not choose correctly, your Waverider will be destroyed, so keep your eyes peeled for the correct solutions to the lantern riddles.
Mystical Elevation
Luxurious Challenge Coins may be found within the ocean lanes lined with Sea Balloons. When the challenge reaches a specific checkpoint, these balloons will begin to dump cargo, and a mist shall descend over the ocean’s surface.
The Sea Balloons will dump out cargo that hold either Luxurious Challenge Coins or bombs. Keep your wits about you as you collect the cargoes, for risk and opportunity walk hand-in-hand here.
