There's a difference between just changing tactics (rearranging teams and positions) and "banging your head against the wall" (your teams are just too weak to beat more than 1-2 pest nodes)

Well...yes and no. If you can boost just one single girl to the point where it isn't level-limited so much, your helper team can clear (sometimes even complete) an event map where you got utterly wrecked before. You still won't be able to clear a single pest with your own teams, but you can use them to soften up the pests for the helper. That is totally doable within the time frame of the event...and I know because I've done it.

(And the medal count now stands at 19, BTW. Nothing about which to be particularly proud, but I sure didn't think I'd ever clear ?-8 in time.)

Ah right, forgot about that "1-girl level grind" trick so you can make better use of strong helper teams. That makes it more reasonable (if you're doing that and not spreading levels around like I'm sure some newbies do)
