Basic Tips

Gameplay

Look at Enemy Demon Stats

You can check if the opposing demons have been awakened, look at their skills and unlocked spirit panels, and the HP/atk/def values before you enter a fight. Pick your fights wisely and select the correct demons for each situation.

Checking enemies' agility (Ag) stats is particularly important in selecting which targets to take out first when you are running a team with moderate to high evasion (ex: for a typical enemy team of Rama.jpg Rama / Mother Harlot.jpg Mother Harlot / Guan Yu.jpg Guan Yu / Masakado.jpg Masakado, turn order would typically be that as well. Muting that team and dodging Rama and Mother Harlot means you have free shots at Guan Yu and Masakado if you can continue to mute the enemy team)

Make use of Pass

If you're short of MP, make sure to pass. Getting as much MP around to your demons should be your priority - so try to fit in your actions at 1/2 Press Turn.

Yellow Yellow Jack Frost.jpg Jack Frost and Pyro Jack.jpg Pyro Jack are extremely helpful for getting more MP & actions for your main demons.

Target Selection

Pick your targets carefully - take out the most threatening demons on the enemy team first. This also includes demons that may have Samrecarm/Recarmdra.
