Damage Calculator Tool

Díthorba: Cutting Knight Strategy

Watch out for Flier Formation and Ground Orders!

Díthorba has Flier Formation 3, while the Green Flier has Ground Orders 3.

Flier Formation allows Díthorba to move to a space adjacent a flying ally within 2 spaces, while Ground Orders allows infantry, armored, and cavalry units to move to a space adjacent to any ally within 2 spaces.

These movement skills open up for some surprise attacks so be mindful of how the enemy team can use them.

Try to take down both Díthorba and the Green Flier as soon as you can.

Ranged units are recommended

Several of the units on this map have low Def and are flying, so you can use bows or daggers to take out the enemy team.

It's better if you can use units with Brave weapons like Ninja Lyn or Gordin as they can one-shot the enemies quickly.
