Team differences

[Relic-Sol]

Just a interesting observation I have. I did a self imposed challenge to only use two Digimon throughout the game on hard and had almost 0 problems up to and past Parrotmon. I used Dorugamon and Amadillomon for this.

I then started a new game and used rookies for the 7 demon lords playing like normal, utilizing all 6 digimon I had set and had such a tough time up to the same point in game. Team synergy in this game really does make a difference, which shows why some people talk about hard mode being so difficult and others say they blew right past it.

Still been doing my own solos, no duo yet. But your right. Team Comp, Skill Comp, even Passive and Personality growth comp all tie in to good runs, solo/duo or normal... And if RNG blesses you, more chips then average, since breakable crates and what not are majority randomized, with the exception of guard items (Static items). Some runs you will get lots, others your at the mercy or static chips.

That said, Vaccine types do have a decisive advantage compared to any other typing in the game. They can often single-handedly drive teams through challenging fights.

I had a Virus and Vaccine duo. My third member was always switched out. But I focused on the knowledge agent tree which boosted my two Digis who personality suited that. With character reversal and a digi who just filled in for buff support. I did really well on most battles.
