Master 'An Unexpected Encounter (2)' in Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes! Get S-Rank tips, strategies for defeating the Cavalier, allies, and the Demonic Beast.
Hey there! Ready to tackle 'An Unexpected Encounter (2)'? It's another one of those extra quests that's pretty straightforward, especially if you're aiming for that S-Rank. The good news is the requirements for time, kills, and damage taken are pretty forgiving. You've got a 7-minute time limit, need to defeat 200 enemies, and can't take more than 30% damage. Honestly, if you focus on the main objectives, you'll likely hit that kill count without even trying too hard. Just keep an eye on the Demonic Beast, though – those things can pack a punch!

Mission 1: Defeat the Cavalier and Allies
Alright, first things first. You'll start the battle and your immediate goal is to take down the Cavalier and their buddies. Think of it as a warm-up. The enemies here are mostly Armored Knights and some Spear-users on horseback. Remember those Armored Knights? They're a bit of a pain for physical attackers, but they really don't like magic. So, if you've got anyone in your squad who can sling some spells (Tomes are your friend here), now's the perfect time to let them shine. Just go all out on these initial officers; it should be a breeze depending on your characters' levels.

Mission 2: Defeat the Cavalier and Exp. Demon Beast
After you clear out the first group, the commander and a rather large Demonic Beast will show up. It's not super clear what triggers their appearance – maybe defeating a certain number of officers? Anyway, the Cavalier commander will initially be in the northwest, but they'll quickly move down towards the Demonic Beast in the southwest. You've probably tangled with these Demonic Beasts before, but if not, here's a quick refresher: they have four shields, and each one is weak to a different damage type. This particular beast is a bit simpler, only having two health bars, and it's weak to Sword, Axe, Bow, and Ice attacks. So, make sure you've got characters ready with those weapon types or elemental affinities. Breaking a shield not only gives you a Critical Rush opportunity but also drops some nice materials and weapons. Plus, it knocks off one of its health bars. Your final task is to defeat both the Cavalier commander and the Demonic Beast to wrap up the mission.
- Assign your strongest allies to focus on taking down the main officers needed to trigger the second part of the mission.
- Don't underestimate the Demonic Beast's attacks; they can deal significant damage quickly.
