She's been trying this because we are sick of spending currency. Any method of cleaning the area? She's gotten to like 820 repeatedly with beetles and crawlers and that's when she's cleaned enough to make it impossible to get to the stragglers in time.


You dont want to leave many stragglers as they reduce the kill count. Maybe singular ones for backtracking. But getting nearly a full clear in one kill streak is a skill that can be learned. Personally I dont have it though. Having a suitable build, flasks (quicksilver/onslaught), etc help a lot of course, especially fast movement. Rampage helps with that a bit but not enough on its own.
Specifically for Dried Lake: A systematic circuit works sometimes to get 1000+ kills. I have gotten ~1000 kill streaks that way even without trying to do the challenge. Opening Boxes and doing Elreon mission make it easier to get there. If its beetles + spiders she should be able to get way more than 820 kills just hugging the walls while zigzagging into the areas you would miss otherwise.
No wonder it's lost, it's in the middle of the jungle!

She just fucking got it finally! Thank you Feral Lord III and extreme desperation combined with the beetles and crawlers. Almost lost the kc at 830ish.

Ok. Just did a few runs and got >1000 with just the beetles. Its pretty random though. Sometimes there are only ~900 monsters even with beetles.

Yeah that was what gave me hope though was that she was reaching 890 to about 935 on beetle spawns and would lose the kc trying to find the stragglers. After I asked if there was a way for her to clear the area better was when I decided she should try getting a frog or swarm prophecy to top it off and ended up getting the Feral Lord which was enough.
