Example Strategy

Healers

   - I would recommend placing 2 Healers (Shield Type or Support Type) directly in front of the Boss.

   - You may also replace 1 Healer with a Buffer, Debuffer, Control, DoT (Poison/Burn) unit, or a Debuff Remover (recommended!), unless the Boss got immunity to certain status effects.
   - Example Debuff Removers: T3 Master Lang Ya (SSR, 60% chance), or T2 Evil Doll (SSR, 40% chance).

1 DPS Character

   - Initial Formation: Avoid Attack Pattern 1, start attacking after Attack Pattern 1 or 2.

   - Place 1 DPS unit (T3+ Output Type or Range Type) in the 3rd column from the left (4th/bottom tile from top-left). Move him/her to the 2nd column (center tile) after Attack Pattern 3 to dodge the incoming Attack Pattern 1 and ATK- debuff, then move him/her back to the original position to attack again (Attack > Attack > Dodge > Repeat).
   - It is possible to defeat this Boss with only 1 strong DPS unit.

Other Info

   - 4th Character: I would recommend 1 T3+ Output or Range Type Buffer, Debuffer, Control, DoT (Poison/Burn) unit, or a Debuff Remover, unless the Boss got immunity to certain status effects. Place that Yokai in the 3rd column from the left (top tile - refer above pic). DPS is not good here because of the ATK- debuff unless you have a debuff remover.

   - 5th character can be any unit that you like, or just use 4.

   - Note: The above example strategy is NOT the only way to defeat this Boss.
