- Enter the arena once your setup is ready, jump in and start destroying enemies.

- Stat growth defeating enemies pushes your stats up each time.
- Attack and defense stronger stats translate into higher damage dealt and more hits absorbed.
- Pilot progression your pilot levels up in parallel with your tank.
