Introduction
Hi Friends! Just like the last time we've worked here, the Scarlet Devil Mansion holds very high standards for their maids. They need a great amount of event points and...sweet beans(?)...in order to fully graduate from maidhood. They get these rewards from doing their best in cooking, cleaning, and most importantly, battles of bullets. Okay, maybe the mansion's maids aren't judged on their point collecting, but it'll end up getting you a large sum of rewards, so I wouldn't complain. Oh, and maybe some nice books and scrolls during the farming process, if you're lucky enough.
All of the following stages are chosen because they are one wave battles - which means that you can end them immediately with a powerful enough Last Word, and thus get event points way faster.
Make sure you're farming these stages on the highest difficulty you can clear with as few units as possible in a single turn, on Full Auto if possible. Ideally, you'll be farming them with 1 unit in 1 turn, although nothing is stopping you from using Auto Replay to complete stages in multiple turns, even if it is slower. The goal is to minimize time and Spirit P spent, but it's perfectly okay to bring other units along to level them up, just try to keep it to only one or maybe two so you don't run out of Spirit P too quickly.
Maid Test (Solo)
| Enemy | HP | Weak To | Resists | Barriers | Spell Gauge | Skills |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sakuya Izayoi | 126000 | Moon, Fire, Star | Sun, Earth | 5 | 2 | None |
Drops: Defense and Support Books, Plum and Bamboo Tiles, Earth and Serpent Scrolls
Sakuya temporarily extends her services to a brief testing session all by herself. A pretty standard one wave, single enemy stage, although the head maid has a rather high standard or HP. Luckily this comes at the cost of holding 3 weaknesses: Moon, Fire, and Star, so any Friends with those elements should be able to pass the test.
...does this mean my Youmu is a maid for another another day?
Maid License?! (Solo)
| Enemy | HP | Weak To | Resists | Barriers | Spell Gauge | Skills |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sakuya Izayoi | 142000 | Moon, Fire, Star | Sun, Earth | 5 | 2 | None |
Drops: Attack and Support Books, Chrysanthemum and Bamboo Tiles, Earth and Cloud Scrolls
I spoke too soon, now Sakuya is testing Youmu as well! And...nothing has changed whatsoever. Her stats and HP is raised a little bit, but everything else from her barriers to her elemental affinities are the same. Hey, at least she's a fair proctor.
There's no real necessity to farm this stage compared to the first one outside of the different drops. Oh, and a very slight increase in Event points (140 vs. 148 with no costume bonuses, in case you were curious.).
Basement Destruction Chronicle! (Solo)
| Enemy | HP | Weak To | Resists | Barriers | Spell Gauge | Skills |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Flandre Scarlet | 150750 | Sun, Water, Wood | Moon, Metal, Star | 5 | 2 | None |
Drops: Attack and Support Books, Plum and Chrysanthemum Tiles, Heaven and Serpent Scrolls
Flandre gets obsessed with power and challenges you to an explosive battle, which is just another day in the Scarlet Devil Mansion's basement. Without any unique abilities to note, this is pretty much another high-HP Solo stage, though Flandre at least has different elemental weaknesses when compared to Sakuya. You can take advantage of that if Sakuya was too costly to farm.
Night Parade Rubble Relay! (Solo)
| Enemy | HP | Weak To | Resists | Barriers | Spell Gauge | Skills |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Clownpiece | 156000 | Water, Metal, Earth | Sun, Moon, Wood | 5 | 2 | None |
Drops: Defense and Support Books, Orchid and Bamboo Tiles, Earth and Phoenix Scrolls
A fairy joins the ranks of Solo-targets, and really just boasts a higher HP bar and new elemental affinities. Though this stage is the first one wave with Phoenix scrolls in the mix, so this can be a good farm if luck is on your side.
Charge! Three Fairy Thieves! (No)
| Enemy | HP | Weak To | Resists | Barriers | Spell Gauge | Skills |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sunny Milk | 56200 | Moon, Water, Wood | Earth, Star | 5 | N/A | Increases own Yang ATK |
| Luna Child | 50800 | Fire, Earth, Star | Sun, Metal | 5 | 1 | Increases own resistance to Solo targeting attacks & lowers resistance to All targeting attacks(1T) |
| Star Sapphire | 49100 | Sun, Water, Metal | Moon | 5 | 2 | Heals all allies' HP |
Drops: Defense and Support Books, Orchid and Bamboo Tiles, Earth and Phoenix Scrolls
The first All-target one wave of the event, and it is unfortunately a rather inefficient one. For whatever reason, Luna decides to only watch out for herself and increase her own All-target attack resistance. While this is a rather traitorous move for the Three Fairies of Light, it is one that makes this stage annoying to one-man All-target Last Word farm unless you have exceedingly high firepower. So in the end, I suppose the fairies win...?
Fate Finds a Way (All)
| Enemy | HP | Weak To | Resists | Barriers | Spell Gauge | Skills |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bake-Danuki (Fire) | 42300 | Sun, Water, Metal | Wood | 4 | N/A | None |
| Aya Shameimaru | 75400 | Wood, Metal, Star | Sun, Water | 5 | 2 | None |
| Bake-Danuki (Wood) | 42300 | Moon, Fire, Metal | Water | 4 | N/A | None |
Drops: Defense and Support Books, Plum and Bamboo Tiles, Cloud and Serpent Scrolls
This All-target one wave lacks the tricks that the three fairies used to make it a lot less annoying to farm. Both tengu and bake-danuki alike share a Metal weakness, meaning any strong All-target Metal attacks will fare very well for farming here, even if the HP for Aya is quite high. She's an experienced reporter, you know.
Mamizou's Recipe (Solo)
| Enemy | HP | Weak To | Resists | Barriers | Spell Gauge | Skills |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mamizou Futatsuiwa | 171300 | Sun, Fire, Earth | Wood, Star | 5 | 2 | None |
Drops: Attack and Support Books, Plum and Chrysanthemum Tiles, Earth and Tiger Scrolls
Even learning to cook requires a battle of bullets, at least according to Mamizou's advice. This stage doesn't have any new tricks, just a large Bake-Danuki with a rather large health pool. If you desire to farm this stage, just remember to target her weaknesses to Sun, Fire, or Earth.
Oni vs. Beans Rematch (All)
| Enemy | HP | Weak To | Resists | Barriers | Spell Gauge | Skills |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fairy(Metal) | 46000 | Sun, Fire, Star | Earth | 5 | N/A | Increase all allies' CRIT Accuracy (1T) |
| Cirno | 108000 | Fire, Wood, Earth | Sun, Moon, Metal | 6 | 1 | Decreases all opponent's Yin DEF and Yang ATK (1T) |
| Fairy (Star) | 46000 | Sun, Water, Wood | Moon | 5 | N/A | Increases all allies' Evasion (1T) |
Drops: Event Story Cards (4* Demon Royalty on Hard or 5* Maid Sword Drawing Tech. on Lunatic)
As expected of a party of fairies, Cirno's band does a lot to make sure they're not the target of your Auto Replays. Primarily, look out for the Star Fairy's ability to increase everyone's Evasion and Cirno's cold air that decreases the Yang ATK of your own Friends. If you desire to collect event story cards from this stage, have a friend with high accuracy and relies on Yin ATK instead of Yang ATK due to Cirno's debuffs.
