Sonia: Inhuman Beauty Strategy

Watch Out For Sonia!

Sonia has her Special charged on Turn 1 in Infernal difficulty. This means that she will most likely one-shot any unit she attacks.

Bait her down and defeat her in the player phase!

The Sword Knight has D/R Near Save 3

Be careful in trying to take out Sonia with a melee unit, as the Sword Knight near her has D/R Near Save 3.

If you attack with a melee unit, the Sword Knight will swoop in and take damage for her.

Either take out the Sword Knight first or take Sonia out with a magic user.

The Red Flier Has Flier Formation 3

The Red Flier on the left side of the map has Flier Formation 3, which opens up different surprise attacks when the Axe Dragon approaches your team.

Be sure to factor in any possible gap closing by the Red Flier when you attack, or have a dancer move your units out of range.
