Master Tactics Ogre: Reborn's Coritani Castle battle. Learn enemy weaknesses, strategic positioning, and how to effectively level your units to 18 for optimal class changes.
Walkthrough
- 1Pre-Mission Advice: The Edit screen will be available before the battle for equipment changes.
- 2Lineup: A standard setup of warriors at the front and ranged units at the rear is recommended.
- 3Strategy - Initial Turn: Wait for your first turn to heal injuries. Avoid grouping your party due to enemy Wizards' long spell-reach. Position your units carefully, noting safe movement squares down from the 'bridge' (one square left, two middle, three right). Save your game.
- 4Strategy - Enemy Luring: Enemies will group together after your wait, allowing for magic attacks. Prioritize eliminating Valkyries and Wizards before they can use Cure+ items. Be wary of Clerics using Heal+ with AoE. Lure direct-attackers to the lowered side-paths to trap them.
- 5Strategy - Turn Order: Constantly check the Turn Order to anticipate enemy actions, especially Clerics' healing spells, and to prioritize threats.
- 6Strategy - Leveling and Leader: Surround Knight Zaebos with four level 18 characters while the rest of your party (excluding healers) deals with the Clerics. Use 'hassling-and-healing' the leader to get any stragglers to level 18.
- 7Post-Battle - MVP and Class Change: Denim may receive MVP, leveling him up. Aim to get Denim to 30 Kills to unlock the Terror Knight class.
- 8Post-Battle - Training: Engage in 'Training' at Coritani. For the blue team, use low-LUK Presance and a magic-user with FireBurn. For the other team, use Sara (if her luck is 43-56).
- 9Training Objectives: Have Presance get Buried Treasure at 'B' then 'A'. Have Sara get 'C' then 'D'.
- 10Training Items: 'A' - Soil Ring (Low-LUK character); 'B' - Chicken (Grass needs burning, Low-LUK Character); 'C' - FolCharm (Mid-LUK character); 'D' - FolCharm or VanCharm (Mid-LUK character).
Intermission Notes:
- Class Change Example (Forcas): Changing Forcas to Dragoon initially lowered defenses. Using a 'Chicken' item in a Training battle boosted defenses by 10, negating the penalty. Equip a Balder Sword for increased ATK and consider a magic spell matching his Element. A Crossbow is recommended.
- Class Change Planning (Voltel & Denim): Plan to change Voltel to Sword Master at level 20, using a 'Chicken' and VIT Cards to counter defense loss. Swap Denim's FireOrb with a FolCharm to boost attacks, especially if he lacks the Fire Element.
- Priest Acquisition: A 'Story' Priest becomes available in Chapter 4. Alternatively, recruit two Lawful Alignment level 1 Amazons, train them to Clerics, then Sirens, and finally Priests, leveling them to match your main party. This is optional if you are confident in your skills.
- Denim's Terror Knight Requirement: Denim may have the stats for Terror Knight but still needs 30 Kills.
Tips
- Save your game before entering the battle and before making critical decisions during the fight.
- Pay close attention to the Turn Order to manage threats and healing effectively.
- Consider acquiring a Priest with Revivify if you struggle with character deaths.
- Utilize the lowered side-paths to trap enemies.
- The choice of story options after the battle does not significantly impact the game.
