Introduction
There are 6 Mystery Labyrinths.
To get SS rank in the Mystery Labyrinth, you need to score SS in all 4 points:
Deduction
Judgment
Reasoning Death Match
Stamina

That means you need to go through the entire labyrinth without any mistakes or damage, but you can use SHIELD, so be careful. However saving doesn't affect to score, so save often and load save file when you make a mistake. Also, when choosing a chapter, the skill leveling branch is reset each time, in that case just buy first stamina and other useful skills BUT DON'T EQUIP STAMINA, because stamina skill will affect the final rank.
Let's begin.

Confirmed if you accidentally have some of the stamina upgrades equipped and you get a lower rank during the results screen just quit out and reload the autosave from before the end of the labyrinth, un-equip all the stamina upgrades and finish the stage. You will get a SS rank at the results screen. Found this out attempting Chapter 5's labyrinth SS rank.
Weskeyel  [author] 12 Nov, 2024 @ 5:25am 
Thank you all, added to the guide.
raziel2 3 Nov, 2024 @ 7:01am 
I confirm that you can buy the first stamina upgrade (and thus unlock the other skills), just DON'T EQUIP it! I tested it in Chapter 1 just now and got SS on every category.
Arc 9 Oct, 2024 @ 4:53pm 
I think if you use the shield thing you can take a few hits and get SS as that was the case for me. The first labyrinth tho. I took 2 hits and gotten an S as a final score (without shield support). You can retry the labyrinths once you beaten the game tho. Nice guide It helped me 100% the game!.
Weskeyel  [author] 9 Oct, 2024 @ 7:26am 
I’m not sure exactly, but when I took stamina it was B rank as i remember correctly, and without it when I got 1 or 2 hits in the first labyrinth, the final rank was S.
So because of that I decided to complete all cases without level ups and damage.
[HTT✰] Ayase Eli 4 Oct, 2024 @ 12:53pm 
I don't think taking stamina matters, just do not equip it, also i took a couple of hits and still got SS in the first case so there does seem to be some room.
