welcome to Nutaku Aigis, where Nenya is banned because loli and Kagerou is not here for not good reason

If anybody was looking for the Nanaly EX gem map's solution with Bashira and Spica, this one I see working pretty good.

->Open Spoiler<-

Just replaced Anya with Deine. And bumped healers down a bit (no platinum). Probably can substitute Deine with Bernice with skill up for Nanaly tanking and Bernice with Leanne for gatekeeping, but have no desire (nor CC'd Leanne, lack of silver HAs be damned) to test.

And why wouldn't lafate guide video work ? I've done exactly the same , but replaced the archer with spica and bashira , and the silver healers with camilla and iris/fedora. Oh , and the valk with Horace since i lacked a duelist at the time. This map isn't THAT UP heavy , as long as u place eveything at the right time

As far as I can tell you don't actually need both tanks to have exceptional defense but it really helps if at least one does. For example, I cleared the map with Iris and Fedora as my only healers by using a level 40 Awakened Bernice up top and a maxed Sybilla on the bottom. That's a bit lavish, but it indicates to me that a silver heavy and a third healer should be alright even if it takes longer.

i used bernice and lee-ann to tank, iris and fedora to heal. easy 3 stars. no awakened units used

Lol i start the map with Spica + Soma, they can manage to DPS just well, then prince
place 2 healers on bottom central (alissa + iris)
Then to tank i use Leeanne on top spot, Maribel on bottom spot, replace both archers for a healer and a mage, and add another mage to kill more quickly; i use maribel's skill just as her HP drops around 10%, along with iris + alissa skill
easy map once i figured it out

maribel may me overkill with her skill, a bernice should sufice i think, might try it out myself later today (waiting for CHA to refill)

Good to know. I strongly suspected two gold healers would be viable with a Leeanne involved. I knew her physical defense would be fine, but she's much less aggressive than Sybilla and lacks MR, so I didn't want to vouch for her and find out later that people struggle with the composition due to skills running out or other such complications.

Why don't you guys just use 3 healer, when Nanaly blocked by the tank you send your last healer, Nanaly won't target it because she's too occupied by the tank. At least that's how I 3 star the map.

Same here, I used 3 healers just to play it safe. My Leanne having hard time tanking valk rush with 2 healers alone and my Bernice is not awakened. I underestimated this map once, forgot that witch ripping my bottom tank HP apart and ended up crushing everyone with Nanaly. Never again.

Because it's actually simpler if you have the units to do it, which is why I had no problem beating the map blind.
