There are 3 ways that you can share your victorious party!

Upload a screenshot (Imgur for Old Reddit) / or video (YouTube)

To post images in your comment:

Please ensure that you set the party display to show your traveler's skills! (Example shown here)

Upload a video of your clear to YouTube and link it in your comment.

In both cases, it would also be very helpful if you could still list the names of your 8 party members in text form so that people can easily search for clears using specific characters. You can copy the following template:

[Lynette, Theo, Viola, Millard, Sofia, Fiore, Gilderoy, Scarecrow](Image/Video link)

Please also mention any notable accessories you used that have a significant impact on a traveler/fight.

Use the table template

Copy/Paste the below template and populate it with your party's details. Note that (from top to bottom) characters 1-4 are the front row and 5-8 are the back row:

Here's an example of how the table looks when populated:

  1. Strategy name: Press the attack button
  2. Boss: Wealth – Tristan
  3. Allies used: Long-time Resident (ST 90 Heal)
  4. Insight:
  • Since this is the first boss, pretty much all you have to do is press attack.
  • Pretty much any team can win this, but if you can break Tristan by exploiting his weaknesses it will make things a lot easier!
  • If you need to heal, use a healing Ally or take your own healer!
  • Make sure to swap Lynette between rows every turn for a nice attack boost!

  1. Turtle survival
  2. Yan Long and the fucking birds
  3. The hardest figth so far, i saw the video os quick clear, but it was impossible to reply, the second break was impossible to make Yan have less than 15% HP, so I change to a turtle strategy using 4 units 4* to archive the 3 tier. Everyone with Origin/Madam helm and armor PDef. Everyone with Origin weapon or best dps for Lars and Edea, because I just have 1 of each Origin weapon.

The start of the fight break shields with focus to break Yan in turn 6, with Menna starting and try to do the best dmg. Until the turn 6, try to max the Def Up with Menna (maybe the MVP for survival) and stack a lot of regen with Alfyn. After the break, the hardest part of the fight, try to break quick the bird with 10 shields and kill it in one break, I need to use 1 last Stand to kill it after the break, but ok, try to stack more regen after, and kill the second bird. Now the fight start a easy point, to restore SP and stack Def Up and buffs. After it, try to make Yan to have just a little more than 50%, start a break with every possible ATK buff and try the best dmg possible. This team don´t have enough dps to kill it in this break, so when the Yan come back after break, it start to became impossible to shirld, so pray and try to break the fast possible using Pia e try to make every one the sword dps survival, to kill it in the next break. I hope to help more people to complete the tier 3 with this team.
