Introduction
AAA ranks are related to secret objectives needed in each mission, this includes Scarlett's challenges, side missions and main story. They reward you with more money and unlock costumes to purchase in the gift shop.

If you fail an objective you can reload a checkpoint before the screwup happened. You can also restart the mission, no need to finish it.
Gigolo Missions
These ones are pretty straightfoward, just finish the mission 3 times for each girl. You'll get a better rank each time with the max being AAA for the third.
Scarlett's Challenges
To unlock every Scarlett's challenge, refer to this guide :

Protip : You thought killing the true last boss in Cave Story+ was impossible ? You thought clearing Hell in Spelunky was hard ? You thought you'd better eat ♥♥♥♥ and die rather than do a Teleglitch knife only run ? You thought it was impossible to teach Kobe how to be a team player ? F*CKING CASUL.
Prepare to re-assess everything you knew about the world, welcome to our ♥♥♥♥♥♥ hitboxes tour. Next stop : CSGO 1 tickrate servers.

Protip fo realz : You can block bullits.
Running your game at higher framerates seems to make the bike slower, might be wrong though. I've found that I tend to get hit way less if I do everything in advance. For example if an enemy is in front of a barrier, change lane before hitting him. If he's behind, change lane before having passed the barrier.

The Connoisseur (not required for the achievement) : got AAA after finding 13 bottles

Vampire Chillers (not required for the achievement) : got AAA using the charge cannon for the bats and cleared all of the enviroment (barrels, coffins).

For Survival 2 - Just use Guard Break as much as you can instead of trying no hit run.

Got it, thank you so much.

That motorcycle submission was relatively easy, i'm completely stuck on combo 3 challenge, samurai attack is borderline impossible to just guard for me :berserk:

Hello,
a question to the Episode 7 about AAA. I played the mission on "normal" and I haven`t died and I found all scarlet locations in the Episode. But i still got only "B". I got several times damage from the enemies. I remember on the "job after report" that i got for "bonus for cool moves" an 0$. so my question what i did wrong? Thanks for your help

To get AAA on the bike mission you have to
1. Always lean torwards the direction of our current lane (so if you on the left have your stick to the left)
2. Always keep block pressed

For anyone having issues with Reckless Riding and don't wanna bother to do it legit go to KillerIsDead\KidGame\Config and find KidHamadayamaBike.ini and edit the bike speed to be slower. Should make it an absolute joke.

Got reckless riding on my 3rd try. Pretty easy, much easier then some other missions. Hitboxes are good, and everything is pretty predictible. Just remember that changing lines takes ~0.5 seconds, and the change itself happends AFTER the animation, not before, which would be obvoius. That also means you cant hit the side of the spike if you start to change line right next to him.

Bug hunt can be aaa ranked by guard breaking first bug 30 times, than shooting all the others. Just got to wait till it jumps than punch it, to soon and it will hit you
