Thread: Spectral March Guide

The point of the third healer is to heal your lightning rod in the second slot. So your main healers focus on your duelist in the first slot. You wanna place a lightning rod in the second slot as your last placed unit

5) stock up enough unit points and deploy Valerie - Odette - Imelia (withdrawing Elaine and Phyllis) during/after the 1st wolf rider rush
6) at this point you're approximately at screenshot 1. stock up enough UP using katie, preferably around 100.
7) withdraw katie, drop Leeanne at screenshot 2 (note that Leeanne's spot is exactly the same as Elaine's during the starting build)
8) only when the black gob riders come (around 370+ kills) would you need to activate Iris and Leeanne skills I think. Imelia's skill might be a bit risky since mine ended when the black ogres came which almost got her killed.
9) screenshot 3 = just before 3 liches spawn. activate Imelia skill when 1st lich spawns, activate Iris and Alissa skill when 2nd lich spawns, and just drop mortimer and other lightning rods on Imelia's spot when she dies. repeat until out of lightning rods and hope you killed 1 lich by then.
10) screenshot 4, activating bashira cloris and calliope skills to kill the last 5 flying dragons. see how my only remaining unit is Fedora (spare healer I brought for fun)

All units are 100% affection/trust except Elaine who doesnt matter since her aff bonus is hp, and phyllis who doesnt tank anything. (I have 30% on elaine but even 0% should be fine for her)

->Open Spoiler<-

Imelia has 2k hp, 297 base def (including aff). Conrad has 1.8k hp. Odette I already mentioned should be replaceable by Valerie/Pallis since they have 10 MR and 950+ hp. Conrad was just there for additional hp soak, easily replaceable by any high hp unit. you should have Imelia. so this should be completely replicable for you. just lacking levels and sheer no. of lightning rods. I gave you room for 3 lightning rods using this strategy, although dropping high hp bandits and princesses are the best drop-replacements after Imelia's death.

edit: Also, finally realized that by placing AW Bernice behind Claudia, I just completed my 500 kill full afk run. orz would've saved me some charisma if I did it earlier.

This deployment is fantastic. If you have stronger/different units and can replace, it makes it even easier.

Using this as a basis I can consistently get 500 kills now with little danger. I use Claudia (-2CR, 4 skill) to tank/lightning rod with Imelia and Sophie in reserve just in case. I deploy Julian early (with Katie) instead of Phyllis and Elaine. I also replace witches with Elizabeth and Adele, Leeanne with Bernice, Odette with Cyrus.

Yes, this deployment order is very good, and can be tailored to fit an individuals needs if you understand the purpose each unit serves. For example If you recognize that the first three units are UP generators you can simply substitute your UP generators, or if you realize that "Valerie - Odette - Imelia" Are the main units used to kill the lichs, and in Imelia's case your first lightning rod, then you can substitute the units you want to use to kill the lichs. Also in the previous example understanding that placing Imelia last is important. ect.

500...That is all.

No, but seriously I finally got 500, but not only did I get 500 I did it and NOTHING died. Extra lightning rods? Who needs em? lol

This was my team...

->Open Spoiler<-

Phyllis, Eunice, Russell, and 2nd Leeanne weren't needed.

I made minor changes to the deployment order, and used a 3rd healer. It went super smoothly. Now I have to get my second account ready and see if I can do it without Sasha doing the heavy lifting.

Very nice congratz, I always find it interesting to see what teams people use as everyone is going to be different in some ways or another.

This was my team and setup, I also had Katie (replaced by Leeanne) and Elanie (Replaced by Sybilla). In the end I didn't really need to drop my Bandit to slow the dragons down but I did anyway just to make sure I got them this time round.

I'm so jelly of your Sybilla!

My set up was...

Elanie - Katie (same spots as you)
Prince (one spot to the left of yours)
Iris (where your Allissa is)
Cloris (where your Soma is)
Calliope (where your Palis is)
Valerie (where your Cloris is)
Stall while generating UP to delay next placement as long as possible (Placing Sasha to help with last set of fliers)
Sasha (where your Bashira is)
Marr (where your Valerie is)
Alissa (where your Iris is)
Imelia replaces Elaine
Leeanne replaces Katie

Iris-Alissa ability usage when second lich fires first shot
Imelia ability usage before first swing
Valerie ability usage when a lich gets in range
Cloris-Calliope ability usage on dragons

(Marrs ability usage was on dragons I believe, that is since she can't heal melee slot 1)

500!

I envy your Sasha

I was thinking to use Imelia over Sybilla (I feel very lucky to gave gotten her lol) but my Imelia is still only lvl 10 I had already spent a lot of coin, spirits and platinum armors getting Sybilla (Who I only got very recently) and some of my base units like Iris and Elanie to a decent lvl and maxing Bashira to 50cc70 to take this mission on. But hopefully this quick bulk lvl will put me in a good spot for future events.

Just gotta get the 10,000 kill count and I will be set. So far have gotten 2 silvers off this event, Alissa and Lauren.

Still no silver+ units for me, and that includes coming in with 4 CP, and getting 8 from my stamp card yesterday...SP gatcha hates me. (5.7k kills btw, but running Dailies today, and event start tomorrow, so I will finish the rest later on)

Just got Monica (gold unit) from the SP summons. There goes all my good luck for any future summons lol.

I would have to say those SP crystals have been worth it from this event.

They are good if you get silver or better but when you get iron.. feels like a huge waste of time ahaha

Kinda loving this event. Just did the 400 kill level. Been a bit slow at it since I have lots of time and I am using it to figure out strats on my own. Haven't used any video guides and it's really helped with learning more about my units. If for some reason the end of the event gets close and I haven't beaten the 500 level I will resort to the videos but for now I am so using this as a learning experience and it is working great at eating my excess charisma since I only usually get to play once a day. Learning to deal with the Liches is the biggest thing. After this I should be able to finally 3* Immortal Beast. I have the units it's the timing and placement I need to work on. When I can do it on my own and see the why it makes the video guides so much easier.
