Explanation

This is the team used by the writers which focuses on stability. Everyone on the team can attack, while the Princess and Scientist can keep most status ailments away from their teammates. It's recommended to run Cool personalities on them to give them higher odds of dodging attacks.

Alternatively, you can also run Clerics as a safe option for situations where your teammates will die. Vampires are also viable due to their durability and their higher likelihood to take hits from the enemy. Elves are another great option as they provide a variety of supporting tools such as giving heals and MP as well as applying barriers.

Tips on Beating the Dark Sun

Master the Safe Spot

The Safe Spot is the most efficient method of recovery in the game, and proper use of it can help immensely with your team's survival. The recovery method is much preferred than using healing skills or Snacks, as these options are far less efficent and burn through your precious MP and turns. Don't be afraid to skip out on attacking for a turn in exchange for healing up in the Safe Spot, and always be ready to shuffle your units in and out of the Safe Spot as well.

Defeat the Medals as They Spawn

Every once in a while, the Dark Sun will summon enemy Medals to assist it in battle. The Summoned Medals aren't exactly much of a threat and don't deal too much damage, but they can cause your teammates to prioritize attacking them over the Dark Sun itself. You'll want to take the medals out quickly by focusing your attacks on them, or use area-of-effect skills to damage both the Medals and the Dark Sun at the same time.

Watch Out for the Big Bang

When the Dark Sun reaches critical HP, it will use its Big Bang attack, which damages your whole party and leaves them with 1 HP. There are several things to take note of with this attack:

• This attack ignores Shield Sprinkles.
• Party members with 1 HP left will take 0 damage from this attack.
• The Dark Sun still acts twice per turn. This means that it will do another attack after using Big Bang.

Once the Dark Sun uses this attack, be ready to use Sprinkles or move important units to the Safe Spot before it uses its next attack.
