Disputed Node 4 Best Teams

Disputed Node 4 First Half

Electric Team
Anton	Grace	Rina	Plugboo
F2P Team
Billy	Ben	Anby	Sumoboo

Enemies in the first half are weak to Electric. So, having a solid Electric team is the easiest way to clear it without any of your units getting defeated.

If you do not have an Electric team, you can use anyone except for Fire characters since the Guardian MK III is resistant to it. Do note that you will have to use Ben here, a Fire character, if you are strictly an F2P player.

Disputed Node 4 Second Half

Ellen DPS
Ellen	Lycaon	Soukaku	Sharkboo
Zhu Yuan Ether Team
Zhu Yuan	Qingyi	Nicole	Resonaboo
F2P Team
Corin	Nicole	Soukaku	Booressure

Ether and Ice characters are effective in this half since Notorious - Thanatos is weak to them. Unlike the first half, any characters can also be used if you do not have a dedicated Ether or Ice team since the elite enemy has no resistances.

How to Beat Disputed Node 4

Do Perfect Assists Against the Guardian MK III's Heavy Attacks

Most of the Guardian MK III's attacks are slow and can easily be parried by doing Perfect Assists. With this, press the Switch button when you see a yellow light flashing on your screen.

Dodge the Ground Smash Attack

Not all of the Guardian MK III's attacks can be parried, its ground smash attack will deal a moderate amount of damage to your characters if you try tanking them.

When the Guardian MK III launches the attack, it will jump to the sky and leave a red circle on the ground. Dodge when you see the inner pulse reach the solid red border of the circle!

Dodge Thanatos' Swift Attacks

Notorious - Thanatos teleports frequently and will quickly attack your characters. So, pay close attention to its movement. When it glows red or charges up, you should dodge those attacks.

When Thanatos glows yellow, they will attack twice, so use Defensive Assist instead.
