Party Build Tips
Recommended: 2 Attackers + 1 Healer
A balanced
party consists of offensive, defensive, and utility-focused characters. We recommend having two damage-dealing attackers and one healer to start. For your remaining party slots, consider utility such as buffers or debuffers depending on the stage.

Include Knockback and Ranged Attackers
It’s also important to include characters that can get fall kills with knockback skills or make use of objects like powder kegs. By activating gimmicks from a distance or defeating enemies with fewer hits, you can minimize damage to the entire partyand shift your focus towards the next threat.
Consider SPD and Movement Range
When deciding where to place units at the start of every battle, take their movement range and turn order into account. Whether you want to lure enemies, flank them, or clash head on, adjust your placement to match your strategy.

Key Points
Consider the Characters' Roles
Pay attention to Role compatibility when building your team, especially in the early stages. Enhancement materials are scarce, so focus on a small group of varied units instead of trying to upgrade every single one of your Elysium Characters.
Be Ready to Counter Enemies
By taking advantage of enemy Role weaknesses, you can efficiently reduce HP and take less damage. Avoid investing in too many units from the same Role to prevent getting cornered by characters that counter yours.
Select Supports Based on Skills
Each character has unique Traits and Skills. Among them, Skills that can heal or buff allies besides the user are especially powerful. For support characters, focus on choosing those with strong support skills rather than damage potential.
Consider Leader's Auras
Some characters can unlock skills known as Leader's Auras that boosts allies belonging to specific Factions. Simply being part of the affected Faction provides stat bonuses, so factor in each character’s Faction when minmaxing your team.
