CICADAMATA DMND Rank Guide

Easy First DMND Route - 1-1 Aensland

1. Learn the Core order first, then add score; do not improvise while the timer is already draining value.
2. Prioritize safe Dash and Stomp kills before EXFIL instead of skipping every enemy for a lower clock.
3. Use ZONE on dense scoring moments, then keep scoring inside the window instead of crossing empty space.
4. Protect the final line once you are above the target; extra fights are only good if they beat their time cost.

DMND Decision Rules

• Speed keeps Time Bonus alive, but score sources decide whether the run reaches DMND.
• Dash, Stomp, Spike and Void kills are usually more valuable than plain eliminations.
• Killing more enemies can beat a faster run when those kills feed ZONE or Wipeout value.
• If a detour breaks flow or costs too much Time Bonus, cut it and find score on the main route.
