Thread: Flower Knight Tactica

For your last Crit team member i would suggest either Loquat, Ume or Christmas Rose.

Loquat: Would be really good for your Crit team cause you still miss a Pierce Type, she buffs your Crit Damage for a whopping 40 % and she has really good stats. She also has Skill Act.

Ume: Atm. Your Team miss a strong Single Target Finisher and Ume provides that. She has one of the highest TP of all Rainbows, she is a Pierce Type and her 30 % Crit Damage Buff is also really solid. She also has Skill Act.

Christmas Rose: Mainly because she can buff the whole team for x1,36 Skill Act. and for a First Turn Crit Squad that's a good asset to have.

Maybe you like some of these suggestions.

I am just happy that the Tactica Thread is so lively as of late

I'll mark Ume as 1st choice Lo(li)quat 2nd.

I will stay away from X-mas Rose, since I and her have some personel issue back when I still on Nutaku.
Also she draw by Wazakita somebody I state as dead artist.
Well I don't see any new work from him for years.
His twitter only have a random re-tweet stuff.
Maybe he become hikikomori or something.

My main team is well, the usual.

Shiro-chan is wild card for hybrid offense-counter and she will move to crit team once fully assembled, this slot has no solid occupied yet. Epidendrum used to stay here but now moved to debuff team. Any recommendation for this slot?

Team 2 is sweeper, will be evolved into crit team soon.


Hit hard, die fast. They're responsible for Nidhogg 1st form defeated without single wound, and wiped in 2 turns later when it morphed.

Team 3 is debuff.


Despite needed lots of ampies for full potential, they can still dish a lot of damage and took little themselves. They might rival counter team in the future.

Team 4 is blank, still don't know what I gonna play around. Dodge sounds good but solar drive team is downright hilarious yet awesome. Straight atk/damage boost and sweeper sounds destructive enough as well.

I am not a Counter expert like you are but i think good candidates would be Mistletoe, Easter Lily (Rarity Up) or Nightmaher.

Mistletoe: Has Counter/Supercounter, Debuff (like your Epidendrum), good Stats and she Increases Attack for party members by 20% at the end of your turn (Up to 40%).
The only drawback: Your Team would only have x1,4 Skill Act. Personally i aim for at least 1,6 Skill Act in all my teams but that's just me

Nightmaher: Since you make a Crit Team why don't put Nightmaher in your Counter Team? She would fit really well.

Easter Lily: She has 4,25 Counter Damage which is one of the highest currently in the game, she absorbs HP which helps Survivability and has 1,2x Skill Act. Also good stats after Promotion.

I would like to know everyone's thoughts on radiant princess or idol version of anemone after rarity up. I am considering her as my next rarity up girl. She has 20 % attack up for all members, 1.2 skill activation rate for all members, increase dmg based on the amount of health she has, her skill absorbs hp is single target and does 4.1 times her normal attack dmg (i think) and increases her own dmg for her skill by 50% (Which I think is the highest self skill dmg increase in the game). Does anyone have her? and how much dmg can she do?

I think she is a powerfull finisher. She fits very well in a Skill Damage Team together with http://flowerknight.wikia.com/wiki/Cacao

The only problem is that Skill Damage Teams are only really good if you have a full Rainbow Squad of Skill Damage Girls. I don't know how deep you want to invest in this archetype.

Ok so i ran some variations on my second Crit team that I want to make in the future. Unlike the first one that has mostly AoE with Mace Loli Chan being the beast she is when it comes to finishing single targets like Bosses, the second team is instead more build towards single target nuking with two strong finisher characters at the end of the chain.
As you might notice Wolf Berry and Loquat are not mentioned, those two lolis are already part of the 1st Crit team (my Helper team). Though it is possible to shuffle them around a bit in between the two teams for maximum optimization.

Alternative Blue girl - Christmas Rose instead of Wheat.
Better more stable skill act. but -20% overall Crit. Dmg, does however buff damage according to number of enemies.

Yes Kerria is OP and all that yadidadidaaa.... but I dont like one trick pony teams, and I really dont wanna cater or the other girls just to her.
Especially if I wanna keep my own standard of - having at least one type of each girl in the team. Otherwise I could go full ham on Slash / pierce types with her. Plus she needs lot of Skill activation buffing to make her work. So she is a wild card. Massive damage potential but otherwise doesnt bring much else to the team itself.

On the other side the secondary team doesnt have the Insanity that is the damage a Kerria can pull if she Crits and activates her ult at the same time, but the team has overall higher skil activation, and Corn Cockle being like Anemone, does have a tripple hit ultimate and each of those hits can crit on their own.
That, and the fact that she is guaranteed to Crit on the first turn with +60% extra crit dmg onto anything the team already provides... yeah make no mistake this team can nuke pretty damn hard as well. Mei is super solid single target finisher on her own so these two combined can dish out buckets of damage.
Accaccia might work as well instead of Corn Cockle since she has increased chance for crit on 1st turn (not guaranteed) and adds up to +150% extra dmage, BUT, its not guaranteed. Also she has no skill activation which is a huge deal for Nuker teams like this one.

Alternatively if I wanted to get more stable and reliable skill act. I could swap Wheat for Christmass Rose. They would still have higher than avarage skill act (not as much as with Wheat on the first turn, but more than regular because of the Affection bonus), spread out through the entire fight, making them more reliable. Because believe you me.... I have seen my Team 1 whiff all ultimates in two turns straight at like 70% chance or so. So more reliability sure helps.

*Alternatively no.2 : Yes If I wanted to make the 2nd Crit team really Solo Boss killers, I could got with Cactus instead of either above mentioned Blue girls. She doesnt buff Skill activation in any way, but does bring good Crit. Dmg (15% chance 40% dmg), but at slightly reduced crit. activation rate.
She does however have a 60% chance to attack again, and does deal pretty solid though not the best (4.0x) damage to single targets.
The lack of Skill activation is the biggest issue as this would be at the same level as the first proposal with Kerria.

You could swap Streptocarpus with Pygmy Water Lily.
She functions as a pseudo Magic Type because she buffs herself and two other girls with Magic Weakness Damage anyway.
I think your damage output would be even better with her around because of the huge boni to weakness damage + 45 Atk for the whole Squad.

Streptocarpus only really shines in really defensive Teams cause you want to activate her Ability as much as possible without her dying.
Since i have her myself let me tell you she didn't impress me that much in my Crit Team.

I used her for giggles in my Debuff Team however and there she is really good. She can tank hits thanks to the 70 % Debuff of the other girls and helps to buff the offensive capabilities of a Debuff Team by a lot.

I would probably go with the Corn Cuckle version cause for a First turn Crit Squad you want as much Skill Act. as possible.
Consistency > Raw Damage Potential from Kerria i would say.

With only 1,4 Skill Act. for the whole group you will have to feed a lot of Skill Blooms to activate your Ults. on the first turn reliably.

Considering that Crit Teams usually don't have much defensive capabilities i would go with a First Turn Squad > Christmas Rose cause on the harder maps if the Crit Team can't kill the enemy in one turn they are usually dead if the pests attack anyway.
