On principle, you can't encounter another Elite Guard, Super or not, without having eliminated the one you're already locked in an encounter with.

However, there are exceptions when you perform a certain action that will let you bypass the restriction programmically. That is...you can end up with several Elite Guard encounters at once if you do certain things.

I'm not familiar with all of them but one that I've noted is that the restriction is lifted if you eliminate a friend's Elite Guard encounter. Support might work too though I'm not entirely sure since by nature I'm also a hitter and most of my weak hits also finish as a result.

To simplify: Encounter an Elite Guard, find and finish a friend's Elite Guard, try searching for an Elite Guard again and repeat as desired. Given the rarity of SEG encounters, I'm not sure if the encounter chance would include them in the restriction lift but it could be possible.

Hmm I see, thanks for the info! Learned something new today.

Correct.

The guard needs to be eliminated. Being in support is not enough and it's not required that you get the last hit. SEGs are included in the restriction lift.

*Edit* Opened up some friend slots.

I'm up for some poking. Willing to replace my lowbie friends to those with 1M+ SED.
I can be a spotter for now, i guess.

I think you meant to type 'being in support is enough'. You are able to encounter a new EG/SEG whenever an EG/SEG that you have attacked at least once gets eliminated. That's why its' a good idea to poke lots of elite guards, super or not.

No... being 'in support' is not enough. That means you're currently in support (indicated by an icon) of an EG/SEG that's still alive. Once the EG/SEG dies you would have 'supported' instead. I just don't want someone to tag an EG/SEG and not wait for it to die before rolling for an encounter.

I guess it's just some confusion if you read the sentences as is and don't assume anything.

1. Spawn EG/SEG.
2. Support in a kill of a guard. Last hit not required.
3. Repeat.

Fair enough. I guess I was expecting to read "Being in support is not enough but it's not required that you get the last hit," had you meant something else.
