The Mercenary's Trial Recommended Units

Recommended Unit Leaders
Unicorn Overlord - Travis Travis Unicorn Overlord - Rolf Rolf Unicorn Overlord - Sharon Sharon

The Mercenary's Trial lets you use up to 5 units, but this stage can be finished using only three.

We recommend the Unit Leaders listed above. Click on the leader's name to see our recommended Unit Formation for that leader in this stage.

Travis's Unit

Travis's Unit
Unicorn Overlord Bruno Bruno
(Gladiator)
- Unicorn Overlord Mordon Mordon
(Warrior)
- Unicorn Overlord Travis Travis
(Thief)
-

Travis' Unit along with Rolf's will be dealing with the enemies in this stage. Have Travis' team battle enemy units that are mainly composed of Sellswords as they will be eliminated quickly with this lineup.

Mordon and Bruno are both brutes that deal heavy Physickal DMG to enemies, plus Bruno can finish off rows of Sellswords with his Wide Smash. Travis on the other hand will be untouchable in this battle as his Evade skill will be fully utilized.

Rolf's Unit

Rolf's Unit
Unicorn Overlord Nina Nina
(Warrior)
- Unicorn Overlord Rolf Rolf
(Hunter)
- Unicorn Overlord Josef Josef
(Paladin)
-

Having Rolf in this party is quite excellent against enemies with high Accuracy such as Clerics and Thieves, which will be encountered in this stage along with Sellswords. Josef will be in charge of defense and healing in this unit, he can also attack multiple times using his Pursuit passive for maximum damage.

Having another Warrior with high ATK such as Nina in this unit will be great for defeating enemies fast and unabling Sellswords to utilize their Following Slashh passive.

Recruiting Nina

Nina is a recruitable character available after finishing the Uprooting the Rock Rats side quest.

Having Nina in this stage is great but not really recommended as her side quest requires you to be at least a bit stronger to finish. If you do not have Nina yet, you can replace her with any hired Gladiator or Warrior mercenary. You can hire mercenaries at any nearby Forts you have by spending Honor.

Sharon's Unit

Sharon's Unit
Unicorn Overlord Sharon Sharon
(Cleric)
- Unicorn Overlord Alain Alain
(Lord)
- Any Hired Thief Mercenary -

Sharon will be responsible for treasure collecting and healing only in this stage by using her Healing Assist. Protect Sharon by having another untouchable Thief on the front lines while having someone to protect her such as Alain.

You can interchange Alain with another character of your choice, as long as they deal damage. Since Sharon will only be tailing the first two teams, her unit is less likely to fight in this stage.

Recruiting Sharon

Sharon is a recruitable character accessible by finishing the The Winged Knight side quest.

After defeating Mandrin, you will have the option to recruit Sharon or not. It is advisable to recruit her as she will be a great healer for the party.

# Step by Step Guide
1
Deploy All Units
Deploying all your units is the first thing to do. Have Sharon go to the treasure near Fort Colmare and get a Barricade Kit, the other two units will charge through Fort Colmare while defeating the wandering enemy nearby. Use Rolf's or Travis' team to battle and have Sharon use Healing Assist.
2
Garrison in Fort Colmare
The next step will be to garrison in Fort Colmare and get enough Valor Points to deploy another unit. Deploying another unit is optional but feel free to do so.
3
Clear Out the Watch Tower
There will be a Watch Tower nearby guarded by Clerics and a single Sellsword. Clerics have a high Evasion rate so it is best that you use Rolf's team to deal with these enemies.
4
Advance to the Bridge
Use either Rolf or Travis' Team to take control of the Bridge and defeat the enemy, and have Sharon continue tailing. Garrison at the Bridge and get a nearby ally to pick up the treasure above it to collect Smoked Nuts.
5
Head Towards Berenice
As you get closer to Berenice, she will use Summon Warriors to deploy additional reinforcements, battling the enemy unit summoned by her using either Travis or Rolf's team would not be enough so the optimal way to deal with this is to have Travis' unit engage in battle while using Rolf's Ranged Assist leader effect. Mordon will take care of the Hoplite.
6
Defeat Berenice
After defeating the enemy units summoned by Berenice, another set of Cleric units will be going towards you, use Rolf's team to battle them, Berenice will be defenseless afterward. Travis will take the helm and battle Berenice while Rolf offers Ranged Assist. The enemy might not get defeated in one battle due to their high evasion, you can use Valor Skills or fight the enemy again if this happens. Once defeated, you will get a Brown Beret.
