''i've tried the zaad dungeon hard, but its past turn 40. well, most of my unit havent take the sp enhancement so its really weak in case of attacking the boss. Need help and which unit should i maxed out. Thanks for the help.''

Hi there! Sorry for the late reply. (^^)/

You'll have to be a tad bit more specific about which pieces of hard content you're aiming for. I'll assume that you're wanting to clear the Brave Frontier 2 dungeons, but if it's anything else just reply and I'll gladly help you out then.

As a whole, you should be able to clear The Warmonger, but I'm a touch bit worried about The Cursemaster & The Savage Lion, - mainly because your'e lacking a bit in units. You should be able to pull through with a bit of extra work, though.

Zaad: Dungeon

Seria (Lead, DBB bonded)

Allanon

Lugina OR Honoka&Hisa (DBB bonded)

Kranus

Karl

Osiris OR Any Recast Friend (Friend)

''• Zaad's dungeon is fairly straightforward: just follow the mechanics of the dungeon, and you'll be fine. It's really more of a puzzle dungeon, really - the only big issue is his third phase, but other than that it's a walk in the park.''

''• The main strategy here is to rotate between Allanon's and your Recast Friend's UBBs for both offense and defense. Allanon is there for his unique 100% element-based damage reduction, which cannot be pierced. The tradeoff here is that he lacks raw stats and offers rather subpar buff percentages, but it's alright since you'll be mainly spamming his UBB anyway. The Recast UBB just makes chaining this much easier.''

• You can opt to use Hakuzo with his Recast SP unlocked in Kranus' stead, provided you bring a Mitigator friend.

''• To get through Phase 3, you'll be using Honoka's or Lugina's DBB. Equip her with critical hit rate spheres, and buff her with crit buffs - this is because DBB damage scales a ton when it crits. Make sure to use your Steam DBB to get your Synergy Shards much quicker.''

The Savage Lion: Pseudo-Water

Karl (Lead, DBB bonded)

Serin (Extra Action SP unlocked)

Hakuzo (Recast SP unlocked)

Paris (DBB bonded)

Kranus

Tsovinar (Friend)

• ​​​​​Serin'' is there to help with farming DBB Synergy Crystals. Due to the recent update, players are now locked to generating two DBB crystals per turn: one generated by activating a unit's UBB, and another by leaving a DBB candidate on Overdrive mode when you end your turn. As Serin carries a 100% Extra Action buff via UBB, and Hakuzo carries a 100% Recast via UBB, you can, in a sense, loop the two's UBBs: you activate Serin's UBB and spam everyone else's BB/SBB to generate OD, then leave Hakuzo on Overdrive before ending your turn, doing the same in reverse order the next turn.''

''• As DBB damage scales exponentially when it crits, make sure that your DBB caster (Paris) is equipped with crit-boosting buffs; in addition, make sure that before you cast the DBB, various crit-related buffs via SBB and UBB are active. Aside from this, make good use of Karl + Seria's Steam DBB to easily get synergy shards when you need them the most - you could, theoretically, cast three DBBs in one turn thanks to Steam, after all.''

''• I personally recommend using Phase 1 to grind for Synergy Shards, and nuke Baragan in Phase 2 and 3. This is because Baragan casts a turn skip debuff on his second phase, which is dangerous given the 35 turn limit of this dungeon.''

• Once you clear this dungeon, you'll gain access to Opal Goddess Tilith and have the opportunity to craft her Unique Sphere, "Iridescent Hope." 

• As per usual, read the mechanics of the dungeon here.

The Cursemaster

Bjorn & Linlin (Lead)

Karl (DBB bonded, Lad Mirzah equipped)

Hakuzo (Recast SP unlocked, DBB unlocked)*

Allanon

Opal Goddess Tilith (Iridescent Hope equipped)

Vanila (Friend, Taunt SP unlocked)

• This squad's a touch bit unique, so give me a moment to fully explain how it works.

''The basic idea is that you'll be cycling through both Allanon's and Hakuzo's UBBs for both offensive and defensive purposes. Much like in Zaad's dungeon, you'll be using Allanon's UBB for unpiercable mitigation, and Hakuzo's UBB for Recast.''

''To make this easier, you'll be running two Leads who each bring a 30% BC cost reduction, totaling up to a 60% cut. With Tilith's and Karl's respective unique spheres equipped, this cost reduction is boosted up to 80%. You can fill up the remaining 20% with spheres that reduce BC cost. ''

''You should actually be able to cast both Allanon's and Hakuzo's UBBs in one turn, provided you get enough OD fill. You'll probably need to equip OD filling spheres, like Vrana's Calling, Chrysalis Zeta,  and Vesper Argentum. ''

''• Elhaza's dungeon is an example of a heavily scripted boss battle, where the boss' moves are heavily choreographed and follow a certain cycle. Again. make sure to read the battle mechanics. The TLDR is to target the idols that appear every so often to purge Elhaza's mitigation, and to use Vanila's Taunt BB whenever Elhaza casts "Death calls out..."''

''• Hakuzo's DBB partner is Ceulfan, a free Light unit obtainable in the Exchange Hall for 20000 Guild Tokens. You'll be using his DBB to do heavy damage, so equip him with various Crit spheres and buff him accordingly.''

Good luck! I hope this helped! (^^)/

Thanks for the reply and explanation. I'll try your suggestion then ^^
