You only have to kill Captain Hunt to win. You don't need to kill his sidekicks to win. It's like the Corrupter in Zone 7. You don't have to kill the orbs to win.
Defensive attacks random targets if they aren't healing either. Veradaux isn't good for offensive.
Tip though - Captain Hunt throws up a desperate shield. It doesn't pay off to attack only him, you might get killed by the 2 sidekicks. I would aim to kill the sniper first, the medic doesn't do much.
Well, what you can also do (I've done this before) is to send Captain Hunt into the desperate shield, then attack the sniper. Then Captain Hunt won't give you all those fire debuffs. Roald isn't very good at defensive either. But his "Greater Purpose" buff is very good too. But when Roald is on Relentless he does "Shell Shock" Which in many cases can be a life saver.
when i was a psycho lightning i crit captain hunt when he was right above the threshold for the shield and killed him, thats how i realized you only had to kill him, was funny to with only 4 turns and he was dead, but yeah i would say go for the sniper first especially if you dont have anything to mitigate his damage
Yeah. It doesn't seem right. Except for the fact that sometimes the Sniper gives himself that insane buff. But yeah. I actually tried to beat the combo so many times that I actually got it down to a system, and it got so exact that the entire battle depended on 1 move 0_0.
