This mission took around 2 hours 15 minutes to beat again under these conditions. The last time I beat this (without healing/ninpo) was probably back in 2005 when I was top 20 in this mode. Now I just play the game occasionally but am out of practice. Regardless I ended up beating a few of my old scores on my original Xbox, just by completing them in a similiar way to how I did them in the past, when going for scores.

For maximum points you might be able to focus on alma until she is dead, then farm Doku with the Dabilharo weapon's ultimate techniques (UT's). That was never something I did at my rank, but the higher up players were milking every opportunity they could find. So that may be something that can be done. 50 UT's is the max per mission so it may even be possible to use a weak weapon to farm those UT's if you can land them consistantly and survive. That was the type of shit that I had to do on a number of missions with the nunchuks. I farmed the dual boss mission in this series that includes Marbus, by isolating him then using the nunchuk UT's after he landed his air drill move. Very tedious. This was basically what I did at the time though , on this mission, when I hit 40 million.

I didnt do everything I could with farming because my goal was originally 40 million points, which I reached. I wasnt really competing against the other players on the leaderboards. It was enough for a world rank 19 but I was not interested in scoring many more points. Reason being it was almost pure FARMING to get more points. Very tedious mission replays that involved using the weakest weapon and waiting for certain openings to charge and release UT's. That was really not what the game was about to me. I did you alot of the same moves over and over again when it was effective, but I was more interested in the no healing master ninja completions then redundant farming. Once you reach 40 million, anything further involves MOSTLY farming for UT's. Even before 40 million, I had to do quite alot of farming to inch the score up and hit that number.

The first step is 30 million. Thats done by beating all the missions on Master Ninja. Very straight forward. Then to get to 35 million or maybe a little higher, its doing all missions over on Master Ninja with No healing/ Ninpo use. Again very straight forward but difficult to pull off. I believe I completed all but 2 without healing. Also the Alma 2 mission I completed without healing, I used magic at the end, so that one was never fully completed. Regardless that got me fairly close to 40 million. Then to hit that I had to farm missions for several million more points. I was definately burnt out after many hundreds of hours dying in the game to get one good result on a mission.


Stay tuned !!
