Damage Calculator Tool

Iago: Nohr's Tactician Strategy

Iago's Special is Active on Turn 1!

Iago's Special, Blazing Wind, is active on Turn 1 in the Infernal version of the map.

He will be dealing a lot of AoE damage to your units if he initiates combat, so be sure to defeat him during the player phase! His Def is pretty low, so use a physical damage unit against him.

Iago's Weapon and B Skill Inflicts Debuffs

Iago's Tome inflicts the Guard 3 or will turn bonuses into penalties if there is a foe that has lower HP than him depending if it's an odd or even-numbered turn.

These effects will also apply depending on if your party is adjacent or apart from each other. These debuffs may prove to be annoying so be sure to either have a unit with Harsh Command+ or defeat enemy units on odd-numbered turns as the Guard debuff isn't as bad to deal with.

Watch Out for Chip Damage!

The Cleric has Pain+ while the Bow Fighter has Poison Strike 3 and Savage Blow 3, which is a lot of chip damage to your units if they attack.

Defeat both these units quickly, as they can collectively deal 27 damage for free, which makes it easier to the rest of the enemy units to take down your team!

This clear is to fulfill the requirements of only using units from Genealogy of the Holy War or Thracia 776.

The king of F2P, Reinhardt, comes into this battle added by father-son duo Arvis and Julius!

Masquerade Eldigan rounds out this party by acting as the team's dancer.

Reinhardt and Arvis are heavily merged, but if your units are unmerged, you can still clear this map by using Summoner or Ally support in order to boost firepower or by using Sacred Seals.
