Each school also consists of 34 stages, A-CD, where the latter stages are more significantly more challenging but include better rewards, similar to [[Bounty Hunts]] or [[Commissions]].
Different schools will drop different upgrade materials which caterscater towardsto different guns. Trinity, Gehenna, and Millenium will respectively drop springs, hammers, and gun barrels. Springs will have a 1.5 xp multiplier when used to upgrade SMGs, SGs, and HGs; Hammers on ARs and GLs; And, gun barrels on MGs, SRs, MTs, and RGs. Firing pins will have a universal 1.5 xp multiplier.

* Only one red DPS is recommended solely for Hifumi.
* Iori and Maki are practically a must in stage C.
** Karin can be included if your yellow DPS is still lacking.
* Serina can be used at the beginning of the battle to relocate Tsubaki towards the <br />middle of the enemies. This causes Hifumi to use her EX out of range of your DPS.
* Iori can always hit both Azusa and Hasumi at the beginning of the battle. Getting <br />rid of the two early on will help save time.
* If you are struggling with Tsurugi healing too fast, wipe Koharu and lower any other <br />student. This will bait Hanako's healing onto them at which you're free to focus Tsurugi.

* Serina reposition is important in this stage as well when Midori and Momoi activate their EX at <br />~20 seconds which can easily wipe your back students. Moving Tsubaki as much to the side is <br />recommended to avoid your back students being hit by the numerous amounts of AOE EX skills <br />in this stage. ▼

** Alternatively, you could skill cancel with Tsubaki's taunt.
* It is recommended to take out Midori first due to her damage, followed by Kotori due to her shields.
* Two healers isare recommended due to the amount of damage your students will sustain.
