Bonus points are rewarded for completing optional objectives and taking on Challenge Cards. The start of each track will present players with three Challenge Cards to pick from. Challenge Cards introduce new rule modifiers that mix up combat and increase difficulty. These include rules such as: [list] [*] Comeback - Upon recovering from a status effect, enemy attacks are 100% more powerful for 10 seconds. [*] Break Invuln (ii) - Enemy invulnerable after recovering from Break for 4 seconds [*] Lost Grace (ii) - Reduces non-S Rank Corruption reduction by 75%. [/list] Each Challenge Card will introduce more challenging rules, but grant greater score bonuses during a run. Challenge Cards will stack cumulatively over the course of a player’s entire run, so it is critical to make deliberate decisions about which cards to take on and when. Escalating the risk can provide great rewards, but only if you can survive to complete them.
