Tips and Tricks

Take the Northern Path

Following the northern path will allow you to back up Judith. Judith's team will easily get overwhelmed by Gwendall so it is necessary to group up with them swiftly.

Defeating Ashe

Defeating Ashe
Ashe is a unit that has a high critical rate. Deploying units with low defense stat near him might spell that unit's death. Use units with high defense and mobility to easily reach and defeat Ashe.
