Should I use aggression-based matchmaking for friendly lobbies?

Map
The best map to push for an effective score is Buried City. You can do this on the normal map or any conditions you prefer. Check our Event Timers to know when your next chance is!
It is “rumored” that Night Raid has higher Cabinet spawns, however, it seems to not be the case through trial and error. That being said, feel free to do whatever feels best for you!
All of the houses around the green route line above have potential for Cabinets to spawn. As a result it’s important to check them all just incase. Just remember, however, that only the top double-door and bottom double door Cabinets award score.
The BEST Route for Maximizing Score
Using the information above, moving as quickly as possible through the use of items such as the Snap Hook or Zipline, and Adrenaline Shots, move through each house and floor in search of Cabinets.
Solo Lobby
For solo play, just following along the streets and heading into every house you can cover is more than enough to get your score to the 3,000 score mark, or even push for higher.
The spawn rates can be very very hit or miss though, you may need to re-run through the buildings a few raids before getting a satisfactory score.
For reference, the green-lit containers give score, however, the red closed containers do not count, keep this in mind to save yourself time while rotating through.
Squad Lobby
For party play, you can split up the three players up between the houses on Buried City to cover all the houses in a timely manner.
Dividing up the houses between the three players like this, you’ll have no trouble checking everywhere out. Both Solo and Squad should easily reach 3,000-5,000 score on a run. However, as previously mentioned, this trial is very luck dependent.
You’ll need to interact with 11 Cabinets to reach 3,000 score for the 3-star reward.
Alternative Map Option
Alternatively, you can go to the Dam Battleground map and try your luck at the apartment complexes on the outskirts of the map.
Each apartment complex has multiple floors, giving you many condensed chances at Cabinets.
