Chapter 4: The Storming of DagsionMajor spoilers

Use two bow users and fliers to engage enemies in waves, and exhaust Bolting with a high-Resistance unit. If War Elephants keep arriving, activate a blessing and switch to killing Lind.

Draft · Updated 2026-10-19

Bring two bow users, including Inyoni, alongside three fliers to handle both flanks. Wait for fliers to approach in waves at the start. When the pegasi on the left stop moving, mount up to lure them. Keep withdrawing when reinforcements gather on the right. Before advancing, exhaust Bolting with a high-Resistance unit. Wait for the War Elephant to come down, break its shields, then rotate attackers. More War Elephants arrive later. Once your main attackers and healers can all reach Lind, activate a blessing and finish him with Combat Arts.

Keep two bow users alongside three fliers

Your army spreads out from the southern end. Enemies and obstacles occupy both sides of the bridge; bow users need to move with the engagement points on each flank.

Bring two bow users with your three fliers, keeping Inyoni among them. You do not need a third. Keep your bow users close to the fighting so they can support your fliers promptly.

Give your main units healing items before deployment. Fighting War Elephants repeatedly uses up your healing spells, so use medicine when a unit can heal itself instead of leaving all recovery to healers. They will struggle to keep up if you keep clearing elephants.

Stop and engage fliers in waves

Hold your vanguard and wait for reinforcements to approach instead of charging after clearing the enemies in front. Moving too far ahead can get a unit killed instantly by the next ambush. A slow advance leaves actions available to meet it.

When the pegasi on the left stop approaching, use a mounted unit to enter their threat range and lure them in. Attack with an Iron Bow, then finish with an ally.

When reinforcements gather on the right, move your bow users to the engagement point, then withdraw another step to keep luring. Pressure differs between the flanks: one wave has one enemy on the left and four on the right. Even if Seteth can take one hit, he cannot kill the whole group alone. Bow users must be close enough to follow up.

Fliers outside the right wall have reached your squad on the bridge. Move bow users toward the fight rather than leaving Seteth to handle them alone.

Bait out both casts of Bolting with a high-Resistance mage

Advancing before Bolting is exhausted can expose you to another ranged attack. Calculate incoming damage before moving forward.

Use a high-Resistance mage to exhaust Bolting. Of its two uses, if you already dodged one, draw out the remaining cast to use it up. The Caladrius starts moving once Bolting is spent. Keep waiting for it to approach instead of chasing into the enemy group.

Rotate attackers after breaking the War Elephant’s shields

Once the War Elephant starts moving, wait for it to approach before focusing attacks. After breaking shields, clear attack tiles for another unit to use normal attacks and Combat Arts, aiming to remove one HP bar. Move units out of the way promptly after they attack.

After clearing one group, save actions and healing for the next: more War Elephants appear later. If healing is already strained, consider switching to the boss. Chasing a full clear spends your healing uses on repeatedly arriving elephants.

Switch to Lind if War Elephants keep arriving

Approach 1: kill the boss. If War Elephant reinforcements continue, stop trying to clear every one and focus on Lind. Activate a blessing, then advance with Combat Arts to secure the kill. Check that your healers can reach your main attackers first. If normal healing is in range, save your ranged healing uses.

Approach 2: clear the right-side War Elephant first. If you still want to clear remaining enemies, delay killing the boss and keep dealing with the elephant on the right. Clearing elephants takes many actions, prolongs the fight, and consumes more resources.

Reassign weapons and items after battle

After obtaining Angela at the end of this chapter, check every unit’s weapons and items before the next battle. If their previous items have been replaced with Antitoxin, restore their equipment.
