Stage Information

Stage Strategy
Party Formation
Taunt | Not needed |
Defense Break | Not needed |
Recommended CD | ・Slots 1 and 5: CD5 or lower ・Others: No specific requirement (CD6 is fine) |
- Slot 2 and Slot 4 (★Recommended)
- Slot 1 and Slot 2
- Slot 4 and Slot 5
HP remains stable if you follow a pattern such as “Slots 4 and 5 defend → Slots 1 and 2 attack”.
So it’s recommended to assign your main damage dealers in one of these combinations: “2 and 4”, “1 and 2”, or “4 and 5”.
Example: A supporter in Slot 2 and a high-damage character in Slot 4, etc.
If both characters in Slots 2 and 4 have CD3 ultimate skills, it will be helpful in terms of damage output.
Slot 3 is the only position where attacking doesn’t inflict damage on allies.
That’s why placing your healer here is recommended.
Assigning CD3 ultimates to Slots 2 and 4 allows for one more usage compared to CD4, which is advantageous.
- Any character (CD4)
- Any character (CD3)
- Healer
- Any character (CD3)
- Any character (CD4)
- Supporter
- Guardian
- Healer
- Any character
- Any character
This setup is recommended if your Guardian has auto-guard on basic attacks.
Attacking in order from Slot 1 maximizes both support and auto-guard effectiveness.
Strategy Tips
AUTO Clear | — |
Save Ultimates | Saving recommended |
Even if one enemy reaches 1% HP first, they will not leave the field until both are at 1%.
- Slot 1 attacks → Slot 4 takes damage
- Slot 2 attacks → Slot 5 takes damage
- Slot 4 attacks → Slot 1 takes damage
- Slot 5 attacks → Slot 2 takes damage
Only attacks from Slot 3 do not inflict damage on allies.
Battle Strategy
Battle Flow
- Attack order should be “Attack → Heal” (because each attack damages allies)
- If HP is low, use the pattern “Slots 4 & 5 defend → Slots 1 & 2 attack → heal” or “Slots 1 & 2 defend → Slots 4 & 5 attack → heal”
- Ultimate Skills:
- Saving recommended for Slots 1 and 5
- Recommended to save all ultimates for turn 10n+10T
-
STEP110n+2T: Slots 1 & 5 Defend → Slots 2 & 4 Attack
[2T, 12T, 22T, 32T, 42T…]
- Slots 2 & 4 can use basic attacks or ultimate skills
-
STEP210n+5T: Slots 2 & 4 Defend → Slots 1 & 5 Ultimate
[5T, 15T, 25T, 35T, 45T…]
- Using ultimates reduces self-damage taken by 80%
-
STEP310n+8T: All except Slot 3 Defend
