Legendary Hero Battle - Shez (M) Strategy

Use Player Phase Units!

Using a player phase strategy is the best option on this map if you have the units to clear multiple enemies quickly in one turn. This strategy is used in order to avoid getting swarmed by the large amount of enemies on this map and to avoid Legendary Shez (M) from warping to his allies and surprising your units with a quick knockout.

Units like Brave Felix, Winter Edelgard, Summer Edelgard, and Gullveig excel in this strategy due to having ways to generate multiple actions in one turn on their base kits. Brave Felix and the Edelgards specifically can also equip Galeforce to attack up to three times in one turn, while Gullveig has two separate skills that can generate extra actions.

Legendary Shez (M) will not approach your units until turn two, while the other generic units will move immediately on turn one regardless if you step into their threat range or not.

To begin, use the first turn to defeat as many enemies as possible while using refresher assists, movement assists like Reposition, or Canto effects to retreat to safety. Be careful with the Green Mage as she has Canto Control 3 to prevent post-combat movement!

The enemies will then advance forward but be unable to reach your units if you positioned them properly. On the second turn, continue kiting as many enemies as possible while staying out of the danger area. Legendary Shez (M) will begin to advance, but be unable to reach your units due to his allies advancing too far forward.

Continue with the same strategy as long as possible, and only deviate from it if you see an opportunity to attack Legendary Shez (M). It may take two combat instances to defeat him in combat, but it is possible to defeat him in one round of combat if your attacking unit is well equipped and outspeeds him.

A Tanking Strategy is also possible!

It is also possible to form up into a ball and use Savior Tanks to enemy phase the entire map, especially when the enemy units begin approaching on the first turn whether you step into their threat range or not. However, we do not recommend this strategy as it opens up your units to Legendary Shez (M) warping in if your Savior Tanks cannot defeat their foes in combat.

Legendary Shez (M) will not approach you until turn 2, giving your units time to soak damage from the generic enemies and defeat them in retaliation. However, if a foe survives combat, Legendary Shez (M) will warp in and attack, which can lead to your defeat.

Bring Savior Tanks that deal significant damage with their attacks as well as a healer to continuously replenish your tank unit's HP. If you can equip your Far Save unit with Scowl and/or Guard effects, do so in order to prevent Legendary Shez (M) from triggering Ruptured Sky repeatedly. However, do not use a Beast or Dragon tank unit, as Ruptured Sky will deal extra damage against them.

As long as your tank units can knock out their foes upon retaliation, you won't have too much to worry about. You can wait for Legendary Shez (M) to approach, and then attack him twice to defeat and/or weaken him.

If Legendary Shez (M) is the last enemy standing, then he will be significantly weaker than usual as his Atk/Spd Finish 4 will be deactivated and his Dual Sword's passive stat penalties are minimized.
