UNDEFEATED serves as an excellent Free-To-Play Superhero Simulator, in which you control an invincible hero and the only things with health bars are your enemies and the city you protect. Successfully completing challenges, saving people, and defeating enemies will earn you Hero Points and eventually increase your Rank.

As you increase your rank in UNDEFEATED, you'll improve your existing powers and, at certain ranks, gain new powers entirely. Since your rank is dependent on completing challenges and preventing damage to the city, your Rank can go down if you fail a boss fight or cause property damage with some of your more destructive powers, so it takes quite a lot of effort to hit the coveted SSS Rank.

Batman: Arkham games are great, but they are the seed that should bloom into other open-world superhero games like Captain Marvel or Superman.

How to Earn Hero Points Quickly

How To Use Heat Vision In UNDEFEATED

While you'll earn enough Hero Points to get to Rank A pretty easily, and even Rank S if you're scoring particularly highly at the Destruction and Flight Challenges, it can be hard to push further. Getting beyond Rank S can take a lot of time if you don't know the best spots to grind.

There are three methods of quickly building up Hero Points in the game, two of which involve the Hard Flying Challenge.

Hard Flying Challenge

The Hard Flying Challenge offers a ton of Hero Points, since you get some every time you pass through a ring and a bonus reward at the end of the challenge. One way of building up Hero Points, therefore, is just to clear the Hard Flying Challenge over and over again. You don't need to hit the smaller red targets to get the full benefits of this.

Alternatively, you can start the challenge, then look behind you to find the end of the course. Fly up to the top of the vertical stack of rings and use a Superhero Landing to pass through all the rings in that column and instantly finish the challenge. While more tedious, repeating this generates Hero Points noticeably faster than repeatedly clearing the Challenge normally.

Farming the Final Boss

How To Get Heat Vision In UNDEFEATED 2

The Electricity Boss, being the final boss you fight, grants 70,000 Hero Points every time you defeat it. While this might sound challenging, it's actually very easy to sweep through this boss by using the Heat Vision Power. Head for the Meteor in the southwest of the map (on the beach) and stand near it for a little to absorb energy from it and gain Heat Vision.

Once the fight starts, lock onto the boss and use heat vision until they're stunned, then perform a melee combo until you launch them away from you. Then use Heat Vision again while flying towards them, swapping to melee once you get right next to them. This will let you loop the melee combo a few extra times before they recover and deal a ton of extra damage. When they recover, focus your Heat Vision on them again to stun them and repeat the process until they're beaten.

What's the Reward for Reaching SSS Rank?

Unfortunately, after grinding to SSS Rank to test it, it seems that ranks beyond S grant no further benefits. At S-Rank you'll be at top speed on land and in the, with full access to all of your special attacks and abilities.
