Shiyu Defense 11 Best Teams

Shiyu Defense 11 First Half

Mono-Fire Team
Koleda	Lucy	Soldier 11	Rocketboo
F2P Team
Corin	Ben	Soukaku	Booressure

Enemies in the first half of Critical Node 1 are weak to Fire and resistant to Electric. Apart from these, they have no affinities to any other Attribute, so should you not have any of the units above, you may adjust accordingly.

The team that clearly stands out for this half would be a Mono-Fire Team led by Soldier 11, with Koleda enabling Chain Attacks and Lucy providing DMG support. You may switch Soldier 11 with Zhu Yuan should you want more variety.

Shiyu Defense 11 Second Half

Zhu Yuan DPS
Qingyi	Nicole	Zhu Yuan	Resonaboo
Mono-Electric Team
Grace	Rina	Anton	Plugboo
Alternative Mono-Electric Team
Qingyi	Grace	Anton	Plugboo
F2P Team
Billy	Nicole	Anby	Sumoboo

The second half highlights Qingyi's top-notch Stun capabilities, but Anby will do very nicely too. Either Stun units with Nicole and Zhu Yuan will work wonders as all Additional Abilities will still be activated no matter who you choose.

Alternatively, a Mono-Electric Team with Anton as your Attack and either Rina or Grace for PEN Ratio or Shock support can help interrupt enemy attacks, allowing for an easier battle.

How to Beat Shiyu Defense 11

Shiyu Defense 11 First Half

Prioritize the Greedy Rangers

Though there will only be two of them in Wave 3, prioritizing the Greedy Rangers will make for an easier time eliminating as many as possible.

The two Vicious Strikers will close in on you constantly, allowing you to group them in one spot. Getting them near one of the Rangers can enable you to take out three enemies in one fell swoop.

Shiyu Defense 11 Second Half

Defeat the Light Jaegers First

Similar to the tactic above, lure the melee units like the Patrol Jaegers to the ranged units' location and take them out simultaneously. If you have Qingyi and Nicole in party, grouping enemies together will be a piece of cake.
