Practical Monster Wave Strategies and Tips

1. Mobbing and Use AoE Skills
When the round starts, run around in circles to make the monsters follow you. Le
arn the movement pattern to mob them together. Then use your AoE attacks to quickl
y kill them all at the same time. This is the fastest way to clear out earlier w
aves. Also consider to make the monsters walk in a line for you to use your line bas
ed skills.
2. Time the Kill and Attacks
When you reach the point where your HP is low enough that you cannot advance. Sa
ve the last enemy on your current level, and kill it at the last moment before the
timer runs out. This way you will still get more points for surviving through t
he last level.
3. Hit and Run with Dash
You will need to get really good at dashing to dodge enemies while tossing out y
our skills. Learn which skills for your classes that cause push back or stun eff
ects to stay alive, this is key to surviving more waves for harder Monster Wave
difficulties in Zenonia S.
4. Save Your MP for later waves
Beginning of the Monster Wave stage is usually easier, since monsters get increa
sing tougher as you advance. This means that whenever possible, use normal attac
ks may save you the MP for later waves where the monsters hit harder with higher
HP pool.
5. Go for DPS Gears
Since you will most likely be clearing out the monsters waves with skills only f
or the later levels. You want your skills to hit as hard as you can to kill them
with the least number of skill casts. This means that you should focus more on
your damage output to advance further in the Monster Wave stage.
