This attack can be avoided three different ways: the first would be to stay still and let the ring pass over your ship. The second is optional, though more often used if being attacked by multiple ships: Dodge Rolling out of the way. The third is to quickly shoot the Hex Ring down before it has a chance to release its own laser attack. | ||

This is another medal gathering mission. Like other missions, you will want a Gummi Ship stocked with laser/lock-on Gummis. Teeny Ships are also helpful in cutting through enemies. While there are no lone asteroids to destroy, there are plenty of enemies to help rack up enough points needed for an S rank. | This is another medal gathering mission.

Quickly clear out all the enemies and watch for more to come. More gold and red enemies appear in this level, meaning more chances for a greater number of medals. Towards the beginning of the level a Hunter will appear. If you are using a higher level Gummi Ship, this Heartless will pose no threat. However, if you are not using a higher level ship, simply avoid the Hunter's lasers and retaliate with your own. Defeat the Hunter to get a great number of points, possibly moving you up one rank.

Position yourself to fire mainly on the smaller ships, with the Spider in between. The goal of this mission is quantity not quality, don't waste time entirely on larger enemies when smaller ones are available. You will need to angle yourself carefully in order to destroy enemies on the surrounding walls and blocks. Towards the middle of the level a Hunter ship will appear. This is a tough enemy even with higher leveled ships. Dodge Roll away from it's attacks and fire away at it. Remain in the center as often as possible to avoid its attacks. In order to get a higher rank in this mission, you must defeat the Hunter quickly in order to make the red Knight Head, carrying the Vernier/G, and the red Gatling Ships, carrying the Fire/G, appear. At the end of the level, two Spiders will appear at the same time. Quickly shoot them into submission with your own lasers. | ||
