The '''Scrimmage''' (or School Exchange) are stages that drop materials required to upgrade the [[Unique weapons]] of students. Unique equipment is unlocked once a student has been leveled up to 5 stars and provides bonus stats to the student. These bonus stats can be viewed on their respective page from [[Characters]].
In Scrimmage, you will battle select students from their respective schools. Currently, there are 3 schools which include (top to bottom): Trinity, Gehenna, and Millennium. Each school also consists of 4 stages, A-D, where the latter stages are significantly more challenging but include better rewards, similar to [[Bounty Hunts]] or [[Commissions]].
Different schools will drop different upgrade materials which cater to 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.
Starting or sweeping a stage requires 10 AP for stage A or 15 AP for later stages and a ticket for the stage. 2 tickets are given for each school stage daily but more can be bought in the [[Shop]] for 30 pyroxenes. However, buying the monthly and half monthly packages will provide 2 and 1 additional ticket for each stage respectively. Additionally, the monthly and half monthly package will reduce the AP cost of clearing a stage by 10 and 5 AP respectively making the total cost 0 AP if both packages are owned. Below is a table displaying the drop rates for each stage.
