Skill Rundown

Bone Hammer

One unit will have to get silenced by this attack. You want to sacrifice a unit to S2, so have that sacrificial lamb tank this hit.

Scattering Skeleton

Allow the silenced unit to get sacrificed, which will trigger C1. Tip: Put the sacrificed unit on the front right corner, to avoid a tomb on the center.

Corpse Poison Spray

Trigger: There are 4 surviving members on your team.

If you sacrificed a silenced ally to S2, you will trigger this skill. Have three units take this hit, with a tank at the front. The other two units will become immune to S3's kill effect.

If you're using Michaela, you'll be putting everyone on the left lane instead.

Wave of Apocalypse

Have the units who didn't get a buff from C1 on the back row, so they aren't killed by this skill. Afterwards, nuke the fiend!

Banquet of Corruption

A team wipe! Your next team then takes the stage as the Fiend loops back to S1 and refreshes its conditional skills.

Hunting the Fiend

S1 → S2 → C1 → S3 → S4

Simply line up the Fiend's amplifications by triggering C1 after S2. To do this, have a unit get silenced S1, then sacrifice them to S2.

After S3, the Fiend has given all its amplifications, making it a nuke turn. Make sure that your allied buffs are stacked for this turn.

DPS Review

Michaela
Angelica
Sacred Justia
Ventana
Yuri

Michaela (×8 AoE) — Best light magic for this fiend hunt (Angelica isn't exactly a high bar though), and she has full uptime on her damage.

Angelica (×5 AoE) — Angelica should be serviceable but will likely not be enough for a level 10 threshold on her own.

Sacred Justia (×11 AoE) — Best light physical (as expected) for this fiend hunt, since she has 5 targets to scale her damage, and she doesn't need Zenith to hit the weakspots. She also has no downtime on damage.

Ventana (×7 AoE with Zenith) — Decent DPS for this Hunt, so long as you use Zenith.

Yuri (×6 AoE) — Also a decent DPS, since she can use both her skills on the center.
