Arvis: Emperor of Flame Strategy

Try to Defeat All Enemies In One Turn

Reinforcements will appear in this map, so it will be easier if you could defeat all enemy units on the first turn using skills like Galeforce and having dancers.

If you defeat all enemies on the first turn, you clear the map!

Magic Users Are Recommended

Due to the enemy units having Life and Death 3, their Def and Res are reduced.

Coupled with the armored reinforcements, it's recommended to use units that deal magic damage.

Watch Out For Ridersbane!

The Lance Cavalier comes with Ridersbane+, so if you are using a cavalry unit, they can one-shot them.

Keep your cavalry units away from the Lance Cavalier and don't let them attack you!

Defeat Arvis Before He Attacks

Arvis's Special is up by turn 1, but he cannot trigger it unless he attacks first.

His Def is very low, however, so you can have a unit one-shot him with a weapon like Brave Lance+ or a unit with 39 Spd or more.

Have One Unit With Harsh Command

Arvis comes with Def Ploy 3 and his weapon inflicts -4 on your units' Atk and Res if his Res is higher.

For this reason, having a unit with Harsh Command+ will convert these debuffs into bonuses, so it may be worth having.
