Bounties and Drops
Gallant offers Bounty Quests before Hunts. These quests reward you for defeating targets you may already encounter. Enemies, especially elites and bosses, can drop loot, though individual Bounty targets and drop tables still need hands-on testing.
Reading an Encounter
Each enemy rank demands a different response. Regular groups test positioning, while elites may justify using a Weapon Art or Angel ability. Mini-bosses test the current build before the Ward finale, and the final boss determines whether you can secure recovered Gear.
Ward layouts can be learned, but their enemies and challenges may change. Enemy behavior observed at one difficulty or in one mode may not apply everywhere.
