Which Strategy Should You Choose?

Best Preset Strategy

Fight with moderation and Focus on healing are the two best preset strategies we recommend.

Fight with moderation is great for normal enemy battles and when you're grinding for EXP or Gald.

On the other hand, Focus on healing is great for boss fights and gigant zeugle fights.

List of Preset Strategies

Best Strategy Setup

Fight With Moderation Recommended Setup

Prioritize Healing

Since you'll be using the strategy Fight with Moderation in normal zeugle battles, it's unlikely that your party members will be incapacitated.

With this in mind, it is much better to prioritize healing when you use this strategy. If you think this strategy won't work well with your playstyle, you can always customize them to your liking.

Focus on Healing Recommended Setup

Prioritize Reviving KO'd Party Members

This strategy works best against bosses and gigant zeugles. However, these enemies will have a higher attack power and can one-shot your characters easily.

Because of this, we recommend the above setting which focuses on reviving any party member that has been KO'd.
