Mech Arenas are challenges found in Insula Lacrima, they are the only way to get Mech Gear Mods.

Weapons Shipment Yard (Mech Arena trigger location)

In a Mech arena, there are 8 rounds of enemies to fight in your Mech. In each round, a certain amount of Black Hand units will be sent to attack you, once you kill the Black Hand, it moves on to the next round. You can get style and bonus points for performing stunts like throwing objects at enemies, throwing enemies away, and many more.

These challenges also include unique otherwise unobtainable vehicles versions, such as the Black Hand bus.

Tips for five gears[]

  • Using an Autocannon Mech, the U41 Ptakojester that drops paratroopers can be blown up before paratroopers are dropped, this makes for a fast round time and a much higher time bonus.
  • Explosive chaos objects (such as Fuel Tanks and Sphere Tanks) can be used as throwing objects that explode on impact, especially helpful for rounds in Nebio Sud that have soldiers.
  • Throwing helicopters or drones away into the air may allow them time to regain balance, efficiently destroy these vehicles by throwing them at the ground, a wall, or another vehicle.
  • You get bonus points for throwing enemies and killing more than one enemy with one shot. Throwing enemies at other enemies can achieve both these stunts, resulting in a lot of bonus points.
  • Despite what the game says about defeating enemies "in-style," the best way to achieve a high score in Mech Arena is to finish all rounds as quickly as possible.
    • Waste no time in destroying everything that moves and keep a sharp eye on the clock.
    • A higher time bonus is actually worth more in the long run than destructive bonus points.

Locations[]

There are only two Mech Arenas in Medici. One is found at the Weapons Shipment Yard in Nebio Sud and the other is found in the Weapons Warehouse in Nebio Nord. These Black Hand bases must be liberated before you can play the Mech Arenas.
