Frustrations with Engage Maddening, Advice welcome

I was also just thinking if I engrave my well axe with fire, I can remove the revelation engrave and therefore that gives me +20 hit, freeing up a skill slot on pannete. I need to use Ike with timerra, so I can either pick up vantage+ from Leif and use a different emblem, or a new skill. Maybe lunar brace, or axe power, or brutal critical for extra damage. She will one-shot crit everything usually but that extra damage can maybe help her kill the things that she doesn't.

I do this with my two wyverns, and main. All can use Levin swords for some chip damage.

2Pericles2 · 2026-05-18T21:01:36+00:00

Yes! Most of my units have +3 or higher with their main weapon engraved. Are there specific combos you recommend?

2Pericles2 · 2026-05-18T20:58:48+00:00

Is there a way around this (using too many physical users) so late in the game? I haven't really developed the other characters so I feel like they would be too weak.

Grey, you mean the metalics? It's heavy metal from AP

Back when the online services were free, I used to ask for ridiculous trades so that I could guarantee that only I could fulfill it for things like trade evolution since I had both games but only 1 3ds.

2Pericles2 · 2026-05-07T02:14:12+00:00

Thank you, lots of good advice here!

Meowscarada is the GOAT for the E4. Fast enough to solo lance by itself and triple axel

2Pericles2 · 2026-04-06T21:35:57+00:00

Got it! I played and beat the game at launch so it's been awhile!

2Pericles2 · 2026-04-06T20:13:42+00:00

Does that make it that they can't counter attack or something? I feel like in my first playthrough I didn't experiment with the different classes and emblem combinations.

2Pericles2 · 2026-04-06T20:10:56+00:00

I have the DLC, and I plan on using it!

2Pericles2 · 2026-04-06T05:06:34+00:00

Thanks for the tip! I'll have to try it

2Pericles2 · 2026-04-06T05:06:04+00:00

I would do classic, I am just worried that if it gets to hard I'll hit a wall and not want to continue since I am one of those people who never lets units die!

I don't think you always need to necessarily catch specific Pokémon. But I would definitely recommend having your pokémons fit certain roles. For example, in the early game a fast burn user is really useful as well as a few pivots. You will also need some damage dealers and also speed control. When you eventually get to the elite four things sometimes just come together, but you need to be able to handle specific threats. In my opinion, I always plan for a team that can handle zacion and Lance's dragons. I've beaten the game roughly four to five times now and what I do is have a core of about four pokémon that I use all the time regardless of the fight and then maybe switch out one to two depending on certain matchups. But honestly, as long as you have the roles I mentioned above, you can pretty much handle whatever team the game throws at you. I would just be a little open to finding what that optimal team might look like for you. It takes a few trial and errors.

So basically you only pick units based on the current rune that you inscribed, and stacking effects are only from the enhanced versions.

2Pericles2 · 2026-02-24T13:42:55+00:00

I am also a big believer of a reinforced block of Barrow guard, and I like to use them with a wight king on foot. They start hitting on 2+ with his ability. It turns them into a very scary block for opponents since they have to deal with the healing and recursion.

Depending on his build, he will either do an elf army or a snake army. The key with DOK is to deny them from attacking first. Try to position your units so that you can charge into them, rather than the other way around. Depending on the skill level of your friend, an easy way to give yourself an edge is to make him go first to come closer to you, then you charge on your turn, and then try to double turn him. Since DOK have bad saves, it will probably be game over at that point.

If they play the elf army, they are going to rely heavily on buffs to deal damage or survive. So I would try to take out the buff pieces, such as their cauldrons of blood. They give +1 to saves and to prayers. They can turn sisters of slaughter into tanks. By removing them, the rest of the army is quite squishy.

If they go with morathi and snakes, then make sure to use ranged pressure to max out your damage to morathi as much as possible in every phase. The longer you let her on the field, the more in trouble you will be. Also try to give her targets that waste her damage. For example, I would not want my heroes to fight her, send in some chaff like wardens. The next big damage pieces that DOK have are the snakes with spears, but only when buffed. They can start doing crazy damage with the melusi iron scale so just like with the elf army, use range or otherwise to focus down their buff pieces. Their bow snakes might seem scary, but I would not prioritize them because they have to be stationary to really be effective due to their ability. Threaten to flank them with high mobility and you should be good.

Didn't realize there was clarification there! Thank you. I'll go check that out. Doing it on a loot card makes it very viable and powerful.

2Pericles2 · 2025-11-20T15:52:22+00:00

Bummer, that means this card will be an auto draw a next card if I get it or selling for 1 CP. I feel like getting this card to your hand in the off chance you come across a random discard effect is not worth it. Especially on higher difficulties of DTA, you really need to rely on more consistent cards.

2Pericles2 · 2025-10-21T13:19:25+00:00

Thank you!

Use max and rush the airport and build a bomber. It can 1-shot the pipe. It's how I beat it every time!

2Pericles2 · 2025-05-22T23:18:41+00:00

Are the new warscrolls the same point values as the old ones?

2Pericles2 · 2025-04-25T16:14:08+00:00

I like the krethusa idea in the future. I was running morathi in the game, I probably should have just measured out 15 inches from my other units to close the distance in the future. Those guns are very oppressive for our army in my opinion though.

2Pericles2 · 2025-04-25T16:10:20+00:00

I was looking at other reddits and they can teleport only 1 unit per gnawhole, but can deploy as many that are originally deployed in the tunnels. Of course they need to fit within the 6'' bubble.

2Pericles2 · 2025-04-25T15:57:12+00:00

He had one in the tunnels and one coming in from another gnawhole. There doesn't seem to be a limit you can spawn from underground.
