After completing that research and purchasing it with credits, there will be aChallenges tabwhere you can find each character’s challenge after attaining max friendship with them. These challenges are a puzzle of sorts, leaning into the play style of the character. Upon completion, they grant access to a special outfit and powerful legendary card.
The Hunters challenge is the first one you must complete to unlock the rest — along with getting to friendship level 5. This challenge requires the use ofWhipandKnockbacksto position an enemy correctly tohit them into a crystal to win. There are three total enemies. One is close to you and grants a Whip card on death. Start by killing the furthest enemy (doing it later puts you out of position, and you’ll need the card it drops), then kill the one holding Whip.
That should leave the one in the middle remaining. Throw them to the right side between the rocks so that they line up in front of you and have a clear path behind them to be knocked into the crystal. Avoid knocking it too close to any walls, as you need to make sure they have a clear line to the crystal, and hitting a wall will kill them too soon.

verify you knock him into it withSoul Blast,as you wanna save your damage cards for after he is vulnerable. After that,create a portaland knock him into the other leyline for more damage. Then use the last trapdoor card to position him to be knocked into another enemy and finish him off for the card. Play Darkchylde, and end your turn to win!
