When tackling Humble Beginnings at a lower level than the recommended level, make sure to equip Skill buffs that require higher level enemies to activate. Overall, just focus on using Area attacks to finish the fights ASAP.
Melia | Dunban | Reyn | Shulk |
You can draft any team you want, but choosing characters among the recommended characters can make clearing the level easier. We highly recommend Melia (If you have her on your team), as she can use several Area attacks that deal high damage.
Enemy (Quantity) | Level |
---|---|
Colony Krabble (x2) | 21 |
Marble Krabble (x2) | 22 |
Nothing really noteworthy, just focus on using Area attacks to defeat them. Try to use bonus effects from arts to build up your party gauge too, for a potential chain attack in the next rounds.
Enemy (Quantity) | Level |
---|---|
Baby Armu (x3) | 22 |
Baby Armu (x1) | 23 |
Like in the first round, if a Chain Attack is available, immediately use it and focus on using area attacks. If Melia is in the team, it should be easier to increase the chain multiplier due to her talent art.
Enemy (Quantity) | Level |
---|---|
Knuckle Bunnit (x1) | 23 |
Wood Bunnit(x1) | 24 |
Junk Bunnit (x1) | 25 |
Burst them down with Area attacks to finish the fight. Make sure to focus on Junk Bunnit first since it has the highest damage capability among all targets.
