Expert Challenges

Expert Challenges are optional battle objectives introduced in and exclusive to Mario & Luigi: Dream Team and Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam. If Mario and/or Luigi complete these challenges, they earn points that if hit certain requirement totals, can result in various equipment rewards upon meeting the set requirement total, the usefulness of each reward increasing as they become harder to obtain. Different types of challenges give different amounts of points. There is a total of 111 Expert Challenges in this game.

Rewards
Not all rewards are available at the outset, and require a certain number of challenge points earned to unlock, e.g. Mario/Luigi's Shocking Boots/Hammer DX unlock when 2500 points are earned and Paper Mario's expert boots/hammer unlock when 7500 points are earned altogether. The Duplex Crown is once again the ultimate reward, only when all 10000 points are earned.
