A few things that pay off across the whole campaign — combat instincts and calendar discipline that compound into a much stronger party.
Combat
- Always exploit weaknesses first — the extra turns snowball entire fights.
- Keep one Healer and full elemental coverage across the party.
- Spend MAG to inherit versatile skills so your team isn't locked to one role.
- Ambush weaker overworld foes to start battles a turn ahead.
Calendar
- Budget days: a little bonding every free day compounds into big power.
- Keep the Royal Virtue a bond needs rising so you never stall at a rank gate.
- Clear dungeons early to free up days for Followers and stats.
- Do Gauntlet Runner activities on travel days so no time is wasted.
Combat efficiency
- Open with the field attack to stagger a foe and start a turn ahead.
- Chain weakness hits to keep press-turns rolling and finish fights fast.
- Guard a vulnerable member's turn when a big attack is coming to deny the enemy icons.
- Refill at a shop or rest point before a boss instead of limping in.
