Visoria’s challenges are quite tough - there’s a footrace that involves some very steep drops, a hectic fight againstsomany flocks of birds, and a boss battle against some of Tanta Olas’s favorite toys. Here’s how to get the best scores.

The waves in this challenge are all spread out, so follow the flag icons to find the next enemies when you’re done with a wave.
Waves:
The doglike enemies in this challenge areweak to Frey’s Magic, so they’re quite easy to beat with simple rapid-fire shots orBurst Shots. The Chapalania, however, are weak toSila’s Magicinstead, and thanks to their large health pools, it’s worth switching to that to take them out.
The final wave is the toughest to avoid damage on -attempt to take out the Amphicyon with area attacks- Surge Magic would be perfect, if it’s charged.
Visorian Plateau Flashback Challenge - Nightmare’s Roost
In this flashback, you’ll need to avoid damage as you take out lots of flying enemies.

Theflying enemies in this challenge are all weak to Frey’s Magic- mashing the trigger button to shoot at them quickly will counter any speed they have as birds, and Disperse will help massively.
Kelaino, on the other hand, are weak to Sila’s Magic. Use Blast Slice at a range to avoid their dazing attacks, and beware the huge swarm that spawns at the end of the challenge. Crucible will help out massively once the second wave of Kelaino spawns.
Academy Hills Flashback Challenge - Outpost At The Edge Of Despair
This tough challenge involveskeeping some NPCs safe from enemieswho want nothing more than to kill them.

Knowing and taking advantage of your enemies' weaknesses is the key to success here. Thedogs areweak to Frey’s Magic, while thecats and bears are weak to Sila’s Magic. When faced with groups of both cats and dogs, use yourSupport Spells (Disperse, Tendril, etc.)to deal with one group easily and then focus on thinning out the alternative.
When it comes to the bears, make sure you distract them and move them away from the townspeople quickly - they can deal a lot of damage with their large attacks.
Be wary once theBorophagus and Nunda Simulacrumsjoin the fray. They canbuff their allies with howls, making it very likely that any stray hit puts you in severe danger.
Inner Visoria Flashback Challenge - Downhill Dash
This is Visoria’sracing challenge- all you have to do is reach the destination, taking the enemies out as you go. We recommend grabbing the Float spell from the Fount in Inner Visoria, just nearby, before taking this on.

Your success in this challenge depends on how quickly you’re able to kill the more annoying enemies, which would be the Thylacoleo and the Vorona. Boost your Purple and Red Magic stats as high as you can for the best success.

The boss is aBardaga Lantern, meaning you have to take out the enemies it is connected to, these being two Recreant Knights and two Pitiless Arbiters. This makes this challenge a tough one unless you’re a bit overleveled.
