Strategy / General Tips

• Brave weapons are a a good idea to use here. Fast units can quad Lucius and Raven and trigger moonbow/glimmer and kill them in one round. This is important because Raven and Lucius are two of the big threats on the map.

• Avoid ____breaker skills, they are Hp dependent and due to the savage blow and pain+ of Lucius and the Valkyrie it will be problematic to make use of them.

• Kill as soon as possible the Lance Cavalier, between the slaying lance+, the Fire Boost 3 and the special, its perhaps the 3rd most dangerous unit in the map (Lucius and Raven come first).

• Drawback and Reposition are important skills to have, same goes for QR2 or QR3 units with ____raven tomes, used correctly they serve as good bait for the Valkyrie and can kill her.

Unit Recommendations

• Brave Lyn (with a Brave bow and Swift Sparrow, Moonbow and someone giving her +2 speed)

• Brave Bow users in general with Life and Death 3 or Darting blow 3 mixed with Hone speed 3 and spur speed 3.

• An Example is a 4* +SPD Gordin who at +3 with these boosts will kill Lucius in one combat round.

• Klein with +SPD or +ATK and the above and S ally support will kill Lucius in one combat round.

• Setsuna with a Brave Bow and Deathblow 2 along the hone, spur and Moonbow kills Lucius in one combat round.

• Virion with Darting Blow 3, the spurs, ally support S a brave bow and an ATK+3 Seal can also get the job done.
