This round is all about dealing with a lot of Spiderchests, so keep your movement up and try to hit them in groups. The Tank Topplers can be a bit annoying, so prioritize taking them out if they get too close.

Reward: 300 Medals
Rounds: 6

Round 1

Prepare for a ground assault:

• 9 Scrappers
• 8 Monotruckers
• 9 Shoegazers
• 8 Bruisers

This round is packed with tough ground enemies. Scrappers and Shoegazers can be a pain, while Monotruckers hit hard. Use area-of-effect attacks and keep moving to avoid getting overwhelmed.

Round 2

• 6 Axe Flappers, 3 Floods
• 3 Blue Sea Salts, 3 Scrappers
• 6 Axe Flappers, 1 Buckle Bruiser
• 4 Buckle Bruisers, 3 Blue Sea Salts, 3 Scrappers

You'll be dealing with Axe Flappers and Floods, which can be tricky. The Blue Sea Salts are support enemies, so try to take them out first. The Buckle Bruisers are also a threat, so watch out for their powerful attacks.

Round 3

A mix of magic and physical threats:

• 4 Sonic Blasters, 4 Vile Phials
• 3 Blue Sea Salts, 3 Tank Topplers
• 5 Tank Topplers, 3 Blue Sea Salts, 1 Vile Phial

Sonic Blasters can be dangerous from a distance, and Vile Phials add to the chaos. Focus on taking out the Blue Sea Salts to prevent them from buffing the others, and manage the Tank Topplers carefully.

Round 4

More elemental and physical challenges:

• 8 Vile Phials, 1 Tank Toppler
• 3 Tank Topplers, 3 Vile Phials, 1 Chrono Twister
• 3 Buckle Bruisers, 3 Vile Phials, 1 Chrono Twister

This round is heavy on Vile Phials and Tank Topplers, with Chrono Twisters adding some tricky movement disruption. Keep an eye on your positioning and try to take out the Vile Phials quickly.

Round 5

A final wave of diverse enemies:

• 9 Blue Sea Salts
• 9 Archravens
• 9 Bruisers
• 9 Tank Topplers

This is your last chance before the boss. You've got a mix of enemies here, so use your best crowd-control abilities and make sure you're healed up and ready for the final fight.

Round 6: BOSS - Iron Imprisoner III

Stats / Weaknesses:

• Health Points: 1300
• Strength: 24
• Defense: 13
• Status Resistance: Immune to all
• Elemental Weaknesses: Physical x 1.0, Fire x 1.0, Blizzard x 1.0

This big guy is the final challenge of Harsh Punishment. He's immune to status effects, so don't bother trying to poison or slow him. His elemental weaknesses are all 1.0, meaning no particular element is super effective. Focus on dealing consistent physical damage and dodging his attacks. Keep an eye on his HP; at 1300, he's got a decent amount, but he's manageable if you stay focused.

Good luck with these challenges! They're tough but totally doable with the right strategy.
