Hel: Death Sovereign Strategy

Measures to Defeat Hel

Hel is a unit that can be troublesome to defeat because she can survive lethal damage due to her weapon, Hel's Reaper, if your unit does not use magic.

A way to defeat her is to attack her with multiple units so her weapon can't save her.

Another is to attack her once, taking her HP low enough and then defeating her on the next turn.

Defeat the Axe Knight With Magic

An Axe Knight will spawn as a reinforcement with Armored Stride 3, giving it surprising mobility.

It has extremely high defense and can make a guaranteed follow-up attack with Bold Fighter 3, so it's better to defeat it with magic instead of physical damage.

Watch Out For Reinforcements!

Several enemy units will come as reinforcements, so it's important to defeat as many on the map every turn to avoid getting overwhelmed.

Having a dancer or skills that give mobiliy like Galeforce and March 3 means that your party can cover more areas of the map and defeat more units in a turn.
