Hello and welcome to this Hot on the Trail Event Guide!
Let's start right away~
Note: This guide is based on the BETA. Officially released content might differ.

Hisui's reworked tier list
✦ Short event explanation ✦
Hot on the Trial has a total of 4 Zones which unlock over time. Each zone is focused on one theme, in this season those will be Weapon Skills, Combo hits, Freeze and SP use.
Each zone has three stages to clear, the points of those get added together for the total Score.
Faster clear -> more points
The higher your score, the more rewards. To get all rewards, you need a total score of 252 000.
On average you'll need 63 000 points a zone or 21 000 a boss.
Bounties are basically coins you use to upgrade the Zone levels.
Each Zone has its own bounty, meaning there's a total of 4 different bounties.
Those bounties are gained by completing stages in the fitting zone.
Level up the Zones to level 5 before going for the highest score, it makes a big difference.

✦ Hisui's reworked Tier list ✦
New Trial teams: Herrscher Elysia - Kira edition; Lantern - FL/MPS edition; Thelema - LDS/FL edition; Senadina - LDS/VBs edition;
1. Garuda (7.2)
2. Hare (7.2)
3. Aponia (7.2)
4. Mobius (7.3)
5. Luna - Eden edition (7.3)
6. Lantern - FL/MPS edition
Overall pretty nice, deals good DMG and can usually clear until the first SO ends.
7. Silverwing - Kira edition (7.3)
8. Senadina - LDS/VBs edition
Feels good overall. Resonance triggers deal nice DMG, but outside of Stellar Outburst the DMG lacks.
9. Herrscher Elysia - Kira edition
Overall more comfy than with Pardo. Can't complain too much, but also not too fast of a build.
10. Silverwing (7.2)
11. Herrscher Elysia (7.2)
12. Thelema - LDS/FL edition
Could be worse, but sometimes feels pretty slow due to the constant repeating of Thelema's attacks and can't clear with one Stellar Outburst.
13. Vill-V (7.2)
14. Brick Senti (7.2)
15. Thelema - VBm/FL edition (7.3)
16. "Mars Trio" (7.3)
