If you are doing Trial 4, Tridon's Earthern shield used to work but somehow (or because of that patch), it no longer works for Zebra stage.

So I threw my first team to burn Zebra below 30% and let the team wipe so that the 2nd team can kill Zebra and get BB gage filled before facing Cardes.

Cardes's Deadly end can be absorbed by Earthen Shield for some strange reason, provided you are not debuffed by Luther.

So I made sure I kill Luther and buff up (Cardes will summon Luther again in 6 turns since his last Luther summon if you kill Luther) before taking Cardes below threshold. Same applies before Carde's Endless
