Get to level 10 (Solo) (OUTDATED)

Just a little tip for those who want to get the challenge and unlock the skill, and screenshots of the description of every girl level 10 skill

How to

First of all, if you get all the 16 relics of the game you won't even have to grind as said in this guide. Now, if you're having trouble with relics you can try this method.

Okay, this is what you have to do. Get to the 4th map with level 9 and 425 exp at least. What I did was, collected all the relics I found, destroyed every crate I could, and most important, in the end of the third map, when you fight the boss, you farm the small grimms that keep coming at you. Of course you could do that until you're level 10, but you will need to kill 360 of those to get from level 9 to 10, and the rest of the experience from the last level will be wasted.

Now, all relics collected and enemies slayed, you should be getting around the bomb part with 1425 exp, maybe more if you're lucky with the crates. You could just farm the endless beowolf, but I don't belive they spawn fast enough. You should power the cart and get it to open the first door(the place with the bridge), which will allow the spawn of the "explody green grimm" ( I don't know their name ). They have 50 hp, and give 10 exp. It is worth noting that in the end of the level there's a relic hidding to the right of the cartrails, behind some crates, but if you open the door be ready to face the Ursa. Also I belive the explody grimm will stop spawning , or at least be more rare.

Tips

Getting a perfect wave in any of the command center defense will help too. I find it easy in the first wave of the second map (last command center). Stay away from the command center and attack them as they spawn so you get the aggro on you.
This can be repeated in the third wave. 4 beowolf will spawn , attack them and take them away from the command center. Then a big beowolf will spawn, attack him and guide him away, to the side near the rocks will spawn 2 more small beowolfs that you need to get the aggro. Beware of the big beowolf dash attack, it can damage the center



Secret artifact on Map 1:

Edit: since today (december 9) this is no longer an option. This relic has been moved to the first section of the map behind a rock
You can go out of the map , and find a secret artifact/relic, which means 100 EXP, or 20 less grimm to slay. Howhever I found this reading another guide. You can check it out here

So what I do to reach level 10 solo, is use cheat engine find my value of exp, and change that value to 8095, then kill 1 grimm and im lv 10. Kappa

Or in proper RWBY fashion,
Brawler: 'The first attack that hits Yang does not reset her hit counter.'

[Somnus]

Yang's is the ability to ignore the first hit as an interuption to her combo.
