Character Overview and Comments
Recruitment
  • 3F: Talk to Wriggle. Two insect bosses will spawn; one on 3F and one on 4F. Defeat them, then go back to Eirin on 2F and she will make a medicine. Bring it back to Wriggle and she will join you.
Play Notes Wriggle is your roster's Poison expert. She deals little up-front damage but can deal a large amount of damage over time to some enemies. While not so useful against random mobs, a significant number of bosses are vulnerable to Poison and Wriggle can rack up huge amounts of damage over the course of a battle. Further, since Poison is relatively independent of Wriggle's own damage capabilities, you can set her up as a tank to take advantage of her fair durability and excellent ailment resists.

Wriggle's skills, sadly, do not have much synergy with her strategy most of the time. She can gain a power-up from poisoning enemies, and she can take advantage of poison on allies as well as reducing its effect for them, but they do not help her inflict poison better, nor do they help her tank. She is a prime candidate for a subclass (Toxicologist in particular) which she can get much more help from.

I'm Fine Even by Myself 1 50 If no character in the party of 12 has learned Team ⑨, increase the user's all stats by 16%.
Comments
Wriggle receives both offensive and defensive bonus from her awakening skills. Shining Swarms play perfectly into Wriggle's typical game plan; by inflicting poison Wriggle also increases her own defense, making her tougher to take down. Nightbug Carnival increases Nightbug Torando's damage greatly, to the point where offensively invested Wriggle can actually deal appreciable damage with it on poisoned enemies. Beyond direct boosting to her abiltiies, Wriggle also receives the standard Team ⑨ enhancements that allows her to receive some bonus even without rigid team limitation. That being said, she doesn't do away with her reliance on enemies being vulnerable to poison, so be aware of that if you plan on using her against resistant foes.

Character Overview and Comments
Recruitment
  • 5F: Defeat Kaguya on 2F, find Reisen on 3F then defeat Mokou on 4F and complete Wriggle's event. Find Mokou and Kaguya fighting on 5F; you will be able to choose one of them to recruit.
  • 10F: If you recruited Mokou on 5F, Kaguya can be recruited after finding her kimono and talking to her on 10F.
Play Notes An elemental mage, Kaguya has the low-physical-but-high-magical stats expected of a caster. Of particular note are her affinities - with 100 Physical and over 100 everywhere else, she has the highest combined affinities in the game and thus her lowish durability can be deceiving if you choose to hand her a First Aid Kit and HP Boost to fix her pitiful HP count. Offensively, Kaguya's spells are all fairly slow, but come with a myriad of special effects. Buddha's Stone Bowl in particular is useful for simultaneously buffing her and cutting foes' Defenses, and Swallow's Cowrie Shell can help lessen the effects of ailments or debuffs. She also has three elements at her disposal, further increasing her versatility.

Royal People of the Moon is her best offensive skill, as it allows her to almost completely bypass the enemies' Mind, and thus should be a priority pick against any enemy with decent Mind scores. Her other skills allow her to recover efficiently once she is switched out to compensate for her poor recovery rate, but look elsewhere if you're looking to improve damage. Like a pampered aristocrat, she is amazing if you either have someone looking after her (switching her out often) or rare accessories (to boost MP regen) but otherwise her abysmal MP regen will make her dead weight.

Lunar Ilmenite 5 20 Rarely, when the user receives a turn, restore all of user's MP. The skill's activation chance increases with skill level.
Five Impossible Requests 1 75 When Kaguya uses a persona spellcard, increase Five Impossible Request counter by 1. When she attacks while the counter is at 5, remove the effect to increase the attack's damage by 75%.
Proof of Kinship 1 100 The user's synergy skill will grant half of its bonus for every synergy partner who is in the backline.
Comments
Kaguya's awakened skills consist of powerful effects that are difficult to use. Power of the Hidden Lunar Princess lets the entire front row join the defense ignoring fun; high defense bosses in Plus Disk are rarer than the main game but are still present. However, her low durability makes it hard for you to keep this bonus, since she's likely your best weapon against such enemies and thus you need to build her offensively. Five Impossible Requests is a 15% damage boost on paper, but because it concentrates five times amount of that boost on one out of five attacks, the player will need to do all they can to ensure that one large attack counts (via things like Herb of Awakening or Renko's Starting Point of Assault). Lunar Ilmenite has a nice effect but often won't have much impact as Kaguya rarely will have MP problems due to Desire to Rest. Proof of Kinship, being a standard skill, is the only one that can be used without much thought, though since both Eirin and Reisen are fairly durable its value isn't too high. These skills can greatly contribute to a player's strategy, but they need to be carefully worked with.

Character Overview and Comments
Recruitment
  • 5F: Defeat Kaguya on 2F, find Reisen on 3F then defeat Mokou on 4F and complete Wriggle's event. Find Mokou and Kaguya fighting on 5F; you will be able to choose one of them to recruit.
  • 10F: If you chose Kaguya on 5F, Mokou can be recruited on 10F after finding her ribbon and talking to her.
Play Notes Mokou is an interesting character equally well-suited for being built as a tank, or as an attacker. If you want to go more offensive, her Fire spells can provide decent damage, although Fire-resistant foes will always be a problem (and unfortunately there are a good number of Fire-resistant foes in the game). Set up as a tank, she becomes a defensive bruiser with few weaknesses aside from low Cold affinity and low resistance to two rare ailments. Her high Death resistance is also a big plus against a few annoying foes midgame.

In either build, her passives are greatly helpful. Blazing and Fighting Spirit helps her damage (although the latter isn't very useful if you're using Fujiyama Volcano) while Regeneration, Resurrection and Fighting Spirit again helps for increasing her durability. Resurrection can also greatly help you in a few specific fights where your only hope of survival is to toss sacrifices, allowing Mokou to make a great, reusable sacrificial pawn.

If you do plan to use her offensively as a bruiser who just refuses to go down, consider in boss fights that Warrior's Explosive Flame Sword is nearly as strong as Fujiyama Volcano, with far better delay and lower cost. However, it still leaves her limited to FIR, so you might wish to look into Monk until the Plus Disk's Swordmaster class opens up. As a tank, Mokou has little to do other than fish for debuffs with Iwakasa, but boasts a lovely 4 mp recovery, so just sub her with a support class of choice such as Herbalist or Healer to open up options.

Continued Spirit 1 60 When the user is switched to the back, Fighting Spirit counter will be reduced by 1 instead of disappearing entirely.
Sheer Force 1 15 When attacking, pierce enemy elemental affinity and status affinity.
Desperation 2 5 When the user's HP is less than (20 + SLv * 20)%, all stats are increased by 25%.
Imperishable Shooting 1 80 Increase ATK commensurate with TP lost. For each TP missing, increase ATK by 1%.
Comments
Mokou continues to receive a nice mix of offensive and defensive boons from her awakening skills. Continued Spirit essentially lets her keep the valuable Fighting Spirit buff even when she switches out (the -1 penalty will be lifted as soon as Mokou gets another turn upon switching back in). Sheer Force allows Mokou to pierce fire resistance to some degree, since she is so reliant on that element; or as a tank, it makes status skills notably more reliable, boosting Iwakasa's Curse, or opening up the thought of subbing for PAR/PSN/HVY with Toxicologist... or the Guardian's SHK on Shield Bash.

The other two skills synergize with Resurrection; Desperation gives her an ample stat boost after resurrection until she can regenerate her HP back above 60%, while Imperishable Shooting increases her firepower upon resurrecting. Especially Impersishable Shooting can result in quite a bit of ATK boost if Mokou's max TP is sufficiently high, and her current TP can be lowered even for boss battles by running away a few times beforehand.

Play Notes The undisputed speed demon of your roster, Aya packs a blistering Speed stat and an Evasion unmatched by anyone else on your team. Her most obvious strength is augmenting your team's Speed - Sarutahiko's Guidance can directly impart a Speed buff, and Divine Grandson's Advent can be an ace-in-the-hole by letting one ally instantly act. She can also play an offensive role if you find foes that don't resist her mono-Wind spellcards; Peerless Wind God both deals good damage and buffs her own Speed. The more she gets to attack with it, the faster she'll get and soon she'll be taking turns far faster than any ally or enemy. While unimpressive defensively, her agility combined with the HP Boost skill could let her attempt evade-tanking, which works well against a select few bosses but in general is a gamble that often isn't worth losing.

Her personal skills make her faster than ever. Gensokyo's Fastest Lessons is an absolutely amazing skill for exploration, allowing Aya to get one or two free hits on everything before anyone else can even move or better yet, pass free turns to a slow moving character, and it's still useful in boss fights. Extra Steps can give her another free hit or two against mobs if you're using her offensively. Tengu's Wind's effect is minor, but certainly never hurts either. You'd have to look elsewhere for skills that directly increase her damage, however.

Comments
Aya's awakening skills provide a modest but useful boost to her. Crow Tengu's Watchful eye indirectly increases her durability and works with Proof of the Fastest to provide her with a constant SPD boost; since Aya's turns often directly correlates to the rest of your party's turns, in a way Proof of the Fastest is a speed buff for the entire party. Youkai Mountain Alliance provides another source of durability and speed boost for her; it's one of the easiest synergy skills to keep online and its effect is decently strong too. Alternatively, Proof of the Fastest and Youkai Mountain Alliance also provide offensive boosts to her, though she can often contribute more damage by speeding up your party instead of attacking herself.

Character Overview and Comments
Recruitment
  • 1F: Reach Mystia from a stairway on 2F and talk to her. Then defeat an FOE on 4F and bring its dropped item (Meat of the Eight-Eyed Serpent) back to her, and she will join.
Play Notes Mystia is a zippy but somewhat frail fighter adept at spreading status effects. Poisonous Moth's Dance in the Dark and Midnight Chorus master can both leave an enemy party debilitated, while Ill-Starred Dive is a fast attack that represents her best chance of causing damage. When not inflicting ailments, she can use Mysterious Song to cure allies of them; if she successfully removes Poison, Paralysis, or Heavy, the ally will be healed (in theory, since the spell is bugged and doesn't currently heal). Mystia isn't durable enough to really stay out any longer than she has to, but for the few moments she is out the enemy team won't get away unscathed.

Her skills are a mixed bag. Instant Attack aids her in attacking and thus is of most use offensively, while Silent Singing Voice powers her up as she inflicts silence on enemies, which can help if you happen to be fighting one that's vulnerable to it. She can also help defend the party from silence, but Mysterious Song already does plenty for it.

Comments
Mystia's awakening skills give her a brand new way to function - Intense Sight Narrowing increases evasion for the entire team and punishes enemies for missing, but the boost is a precentage one and Mystia's own base evasion isn't very high. Also, since the boost is precentage based, it works better with an entire team of evasive characters (and maybe an Avoid Ring or two), and possibly Suika to add to the evasion boost. Beyond that, Dead to All but the Song lets her get a 30% all stat boost from silencing even one enemy, which can greatly increase her capabilities - as long as the enemy in question is vulnerable to silence. Proof of Kinship and I'm Fine Even by Myself lets her stack another source of stack increase (or rather make the existent source easier to use), and combined with the high multiplier of Midnight Chorus Master, Mystia's role as an attacker is greatly bolstered as well.

Character Overview and Comments
Recruitment
  • Get defeated 12 times and she will join you.
Play Notes Kasen packs an impressive set of stats, especially given that you can recruit her practically at the start of the game (and given that she requires twelve Game Overs to access, it's entirely possible she was made to be overpowered on the early floors on purpose). That power only gets better as the game goes on - none of her stats are bad or even mediocre except a few affinities. Higekiri's Cursed Arm will be one of your go-to nukes for anything not resistant to Dark - high accuracy plus two useful Debuffs are just icing on the cake compared to how much raw damage you can squeeze out of it. Diving Waltz of the Raijuu can let her fish for Paralysis, and Echo of the Nine Forest Gods is simply a good all-target Nature spell. As if all that weren't enough, Breath of the Hermit is a powerful and fast self buff.

The only negative aspect to Kasen is her low MP recovery. Without careful conservation Kasen's MP pool can deplete rather fast, so please be aware of this if you are using her as a stay in attacker/tank. Granted, this can be easily mitigated with the proper equipment, so it is not a large detriment. While she isn't perfect, she has so much going for her that it's difficult not to justify giving her a spot on your team for at least the first half of the game.

Kasen has a number of skills that support a stay-in attacker style well. Fighting Spirit boosts both her offense and defense as long as she stays on the front line, while Guts and Adversity give you a buffer against the unexpected. Her ability to add Silence and Shock are also helpful against opponents that are vulnerable to them.

Comments
The main addition from Kasen's awakening skills is a self-buff that grants special effects. Although the mechanics are complicated, in essence they lets Kasen do 25% more damage and take 25% less damage, and although they are not permanent they can keep working for a while. Combined with Fighting Spirit Kasen can achieve quite a lot of damage increase and reduction, although 8 MP can be pretty expensive, especially if you're unlucky and the effects run out quickly. Besides that, Adversity+ and Healthy Mind and Body work in tandem to give Kasen a boost depends on her current condition; Healthy Mind and Body gives her a small offensive and defensive boost, while Adversity greatly increases her damage output. Four Deva of Mt. Ooe can also grant her another boost; all three participants are some of the toughest characters in the game, though the other two onis may want to use their high damage, high delay attacks and thus need to be switched out frequently.

Character Overview and Comments
Recruitment
  • 5F: Talk to her after you found three Mysterious Scrap Iron on earlier floors, and she will join you.
Play Notes Nazrin is a single-target mage who specializes in killing blows. Each of her spellcards has a different reward-boosting effect when it defeats a foe, allowing you to stock up additional experience or money, or fish for item drops. Each spell also has a different element, which always comes in handy. Numerically she's fairly nondescript, packing average stats in most areas, although beware of her rather poor ailment resistances.

Her skills further her ability to treasure hunt - a flat 20% item drop bonus is very nice, and certainly may earn her a spot in the party's back row alongside Rinnosuke by itself. Extra steps is extremely useful when she is actually in the front killing things. Finally, increasing damage against Divine Spirits is very useful in end-game where all the artifacts you fight are classified as such. Bishamonten's Blessing skills gives her a choice in a damage or speed boost, though their effects are far less efficient than boost skills and should only be invested in after learning the relevant stat boosts.

Comments
Nazrin receives a very strong firepower boost from her awakened skills. Wits of the Tiny Clever General provides her a 33% damage boost essentially, while Extra Attack is essentially another 50% boost. These two stack multiplicatively that nearly doubles Nazrin's damage output on average, though the boost is also highly RNG-reliant. On the other hand, Nazrin also steals Effective Formation Change from Rinnosuke, which when combined with Bishamonten's Protection - Gale gives her far higher speed than Rinnosuke (or Keine, for that matter) to switch people in with, though she isn't nearly as durable as those two.

Character Overview and Comments
Recruitment
  • 4F: Talk to Rin then talk to Satori to remove the barriers leading to Hina.
  • 5F: Hina is a mandatory boss in front of the 6F stairs. Defeat her and she will join you. She is required to beat the game.
Play Notes At first glance, Hina looks like another high-Mind mage with also-moderate stats everywhere else. However a closer look reveals a gimmicky character focused around debuffs. Biorhythm of the Misfortune God can debuff everyone on the field - make sure your party has debuff resistance! - but also sets her up for more damage, as Pain Flow releases Hina's debuffs for massive damage. Old Lady Ohgane's Fire can also fish for a debuff if you need something more conventional. Hina can work as a "standard" mage who uses her setup to try and deal damage, or you can build her straight defense and use her as a frighteningly effective debuff bot capable of taking hits as well; Biorhythm boasts very high debuff accuracy in tandem with covering all stats at once, and can be worth a spot in your team by itself.

Her skills are the backbone of her unorthodox strategy. Misfortune Reversal, in particular, is absolutely required to use her well. Role of Nagashi-Bina completes the gimmick, allowing Hina to get those debuffs passively, without needing to spend a turn using Biorhythm. Two-Way Curse complements the set, giving Hina essentially free damage and defense. Spinning Around More than Usual and Ability to Stockpile Misfortune are situation-specific skills that require you to figure out whether it's the right place to invest in them, but they're very useful when they can activate. Warding Away Bad Luck will actually play against her strategy, but there may be times where it just makes more sense than relying on Hina's own strategy; it's free debuff protection against debuff-happy foes. Also, if you're simply using Hina to debuff enemies with Biorhythm, Warding Away Bad Luck will help protect your own allies from it.

Cursed Hina Doll 1 120 When Hina attacks with a personal spell on debuffed enemies, increase damage with the bonus being equal to the total magnitude of their debuffs.
Comments
Hina's awakening skill grants her a very Hina-like damage boost. Cursed Hina Doll can give up to +250% damage, which is absolutely insane, especially since the enemy would already be at -50% at every stat. Of course, that's assuming that the enemy can be debuffed in every stat, but even then very few enemies have complete immunity to every debuff, especially when Hina's Biorhythm has higher than 100% rate (and possibly combined with Reisen's Intense/Magnificent Vertigo). Do keep in mind though that this boost only applies to Hina's personal cards (which can be quite limited, especially since Pain Flow clears Hina's own debuffs). Aside from that, Youkai Mountain Alliance provides her with a decent stat boost (though keep in mind that Hina often wants to work with characters who are not part of the alliance), and Sorrows of Exiled Doll grants her a passive support ability when she needs to tank attacks rather than dish them out.

Character Overview and Comments
Recruitment
  • 4F: First meeting event
  • 5F: After talking to Satori, a boss will appear on 5F. Defeat the Kraken and she will join you. She is required to beat the game.
Play Notes Rin remains a high-Mind speedster who excels at debuffing foes and blowing through random encounters. Three of her spellcards are capable of debilitating the foe in some way; Cat's Walk also pulls double duty at delaying Rin's turn slightly, allowing her to be an effective switcher, especially in conjunction with her Accelerated Rank Switch skill. Blazing Wheel is her sweeping tool, making short work of enemy parties without high Mind or Fire affinity. She's not very durable, so don't let her try to stay out and fight - pop off her attacks and get her off the front lines quickly.

Rin's skills capitalize on her speed. First and foremost is Extra Attack - it can, in fact, proc on itself, so two levels in this skill will increase Rin's average damage by nearly 50%, which is extremely amazing for the skill points spent. Final Blow will likely increase her damage against bosses as well, as rare are the boss fights where the player does not seek to utilize some sort of status ailment vulnerabilities. Accelerated Rank Switching is certainly useful if you're using her as a switcher.

Once you have a Gem of Awakening to spare, Rin's ideal subclass is almost definitely Warrior; Needle hill is already her strongest attack and benefits greatly from Row Attack Enhancement, and Explosive Flame Sword is far stronger than Blazing Wheel when it comes to bosses if FIR is more desirable than PHYS. To top it all off, Tension Up will proc each time that Extra Attack activates; allowing Rin to pump up her own ATK buff easily with a little luck.

Comments
With one of Orin's awakening skills, one of the best offensive skills in the game becomes even better. It's unclear the magnitude of Vengeful Cat's Erratic Step's boost, but even in the worst case (32%->48%), it still increases the average damage from around 150% to around 200%. Combined with an omnipresent 30% defense ignore, Orin's offensive potential can increase quite a bit. Proof of Kinship can also help her with the firepower, especially since Satori isn't the sturdiest character in the world. None of these skills help Orin's durability, though, so you should still beware of enemy attacks when using her.

Character Overview and Comments
Recruitment
  • 4F: Meet Rin for her first event, then find Satori to make the boss appear on 6F.
  • 6F: Defeat Blue Orchid, then she will join you. She is required to beat the game.
Play Notes Utsuho is a mage that gets more and more powerful the longer she fights. Uncontainable Nuclear Reaction increases her power at the cost of her defenses and Speed (Debuff resistance doesn't work, though upgrading the spell reduces the penalties). Note that Giga Flare in LoT2 pierces most of enemies' Mind, not completely ignoring it so she can still deal no damage to enemies with sky-high Mind. Hell's Tokamak while having low base power, it can debuffs enemy Mind. While her base survivability isn't terrible, it isn't that impressive either, particularly given low ailment resistances(a Resistance Boost tome can work wonders). It will be up to the player to either remedy that or find safe moments for her to stay in for a while.

Utsuho's personal skills encourages her to stay in and fight rather than hit and run. Overheating and Fighting Spirit tend to provide that kind of incentive. However, Blazing still provides good bonus for her even if she does not (or cannot) follow that playstyle. Sheer Force is more notable on her than others, since Giga Flare ignores Mind but not affinity, it can allow Utsuho to deal Mind-ignoring damage even against Mystic-resistant enemies.

Comments
Okuu's awakening skills further increase her firepower (in a very literal sense of the word). High Blazing squares the effect of Fighting Spirit on her fire spells, turning a 30% boost into 69%, while Self Tokamak also removes the side effects of Uncontained Nuclear Reaction, as well as turning Overheat into a free 75% boost. All the damage boost skills she have multiply to a total boost of nearly 4x damage! Although none of the damage boosts help her pierce enemy mind at all, or help her with a Giga Flare-and-run playstyle (which is the only viable playstyle she has against extremely high MND enemies). That being said, Proof of Kinship does let her have an easier time keeping her synergy bonus (which has now increased due to the inclusion of Koishi), and that skill will be in effect regardless of what playstyle Okuu is running.

Character Overview and Comments
Recruitment
  • 4F: Start Rin's event, then find a stairway back to 4F and talk to Satori. Then recruit Rin on 5F, recruit Utsuho on 6F, and return to Satori and she will join you. She is required to beat the game.
Play Notes Satori is defined by her Spellcard Recollection skill, which allows her to play a kind of reverse blue mage - she has access to all base spellcards your front line characters currently have (albeit at a slightly higher MP cost). This lets you double up on your party's best spells, allowing you to effectively get things done up to twice as fast. Of course, this is only as useful as your best spellcards, and Satori herself is likely not quite as powerful as your other characters may be - on the other hand, she will make better use of your tank's offense spells if the latter is built purely defensively. In particular, she's fairly slow and the increased costs of copied spells can put a severe drain on her MP without several ranks in Spellcard Recollection. Without copying spellcards, she has only a ho-hum Mystic nuke to work with.

Spellcard Recollection is obviously the first priority for her no matter what she wants to do. Try leveling it whenever possible, as the increased MP cost can quickly become a bother. Small MP Recover does remove that strain somewhat, so its rather useful for boss fights. Her other skills are largely offensive. Trauma Recollection especially stands out on a character as versatile as Satori is and Eyes that Perceive Reality effectively negates the enemy's buffs for Satori , although that only goes if you're using her for dealing damage.

Comments
Satori obtains a very weird way of inflicting damage with her awakening skills. Extra Experience of Trauma lets her inflict small but defense ignoring damage every time she gets a turn that scales to her HP. This can be combined with very quick delaying spells, such as Grand Patriot's Elixir, Kimontoku or Cat's Walk to inflict a steady stream of damage to enemies, and Eirin's overheal can be used to increase the damage even further. It also works well with subclasses with per-turn effects like Healer . It's a weird and team-dependent playstyle (and entire paragraphs can be dedicated to making use of it), but Satori is team-dependent in general to begin with. If that is not your cup of tea, Terrifying Hypnotism increases her weakness damage bonus to 60% for herself, which is also a potent damage bonus that works well with her gimmick. Proof of Kinship is possibly not as helpful for her as some other characters since her DEF and MND are already low and she may not make use of her ATK/MAG any more, but at the minimum it still helps her SPD.

Character Overview and Comments
Recruitment
  • 6F: Defeat 10 FOEs in total (achievement 32). Then find Yuugi as an FOE and defeat her.
Play Notes Yuugi is a single-target, no-quarter, physical monstrosity who excels in beating down anything and everything without sky-high Defense. Statwise, she's a more extreme version of Youmu - excellent HP, massive Attack and Defense, and downright crummy MP, Mind, and Speed. Interestingly, Yuugi also brings utility in Irremovable Shackles, which can apply the rare and valuable Heavy status - a number of bosses are vulnerable to Heavy and being able to do so often makes Yuugi worth it for that alone. Make sure you give her equipment to boost her hit - her slow Speed combined with medium-to-long-delays mean a miss wastes lot of MP and time.

She has a very good store of offensive personal skills. Ruinous Super Strength powers up Knockout in Three Steps greatly; Hoshiguma Dish helps her a lot if she is staying in using lower-delay cards, Last Fortress and Adamant Helix powers her up in dire situations. You will have to identify what kind of situation she will likely find herself in, though, to pick her skills efficiently.

Comments
Yuugi receives quite the number of conditional stat boosts with her awakened skills. Dreadful Raging Waves and Ability to Cause Supernatural Phenomenon increase her damage, but only when she has full HP and MP, though Dreadful Raging Waves also extends its effect on the entire frontline. The full MP restriction in particular makes them very hard to use for a stay-in attack style, though Supernatural Phenomenon does have a small MP cost that can easily be offset by subbing Magician and/or making other use of MP recovery skills like Sanae's awakening skills. Last Fortress+ doesn't really change the fact that Last Fortress isn't really a bonus you should aim for (unless you're planning on using less characters to get around challenge level or are working with Cirno), but turning the bonus from 4% per fallen character to 8% does make the effect much more notable, especially after having lost a few characters to a tough boss. Four Deva of Mt. Ooe provides her with a synergy skill to use, though it's probably one of the easiest synergy teams to make good use of.
