Arete: Requiem's Beauty Strategy

Use a hit and run strategy!

Due to the map being split into essentially two islands, it's easy for the enemy team to defeat your own units without you reaching them, unless you are using an all-flying team.

You can, however, bait the enemy team into funneling towards your units by using a ranged unit to either defeat or deal some initial damage and then either using a skill with Canto like A/D Far Trace or using a dancer to retreat to safety.

Use brave weapons!

Brave weapons make this battle a breeze, as those using them can easily defeat the enemy units on the map without taking a lot of damage in return.

This is especially helpful against Arete, as she heals herself after combat and prevents healing through Fatal Smoke 3.
