Challenge Mode Tips and Tricks Options

Well with the addition of Specials for S-Ranks now, it seems interest in C-Mode has picked up again. This thread will be used for everyone to give their hints to getting optimal time on the stages.

In Stage 4 when the team gets to the first junction and has to split up, a quicker way to do it would be to have the Hucast(or strongest Hu) go solo to the left. This room is usually populated by only one wave of monsters. The person left behind need only wait for the right team to activate the switch for the warp to appear. The solo player should not activate their switch so as not to confuse the player left behind.

Another that comes to mind that always seems to slow us down is the barrier puzzle in Area 17 of Stage 4. This is a very easy puzzle, but somehow it always gets messed up. Here is a map taken from Mamak to help explain it.
