Strategies & Tips

Shiny Akaza – The Breach Challenger Exclusive

high budget

Complete guide to obtaining and using Shiny Akaza, the ultimate Breach Challenge reward.

Acquisition: Breach Challenge Level 5 completion reward only

Rarity: Limited availability, cannot be traded

Specialization: Single-target burst damage with infinite scaling

Shiny Akaza operates on a completely different power scale than his base version. His 'Destructive Death' technique can one-shot mini-bosses and deals true damage that bypasses all enemy defenses.

The unit gains 2% attack speed for every enemy killed, stacking infinitely within a wave. This makes him extremely powerful in later waves.

Level 4: Multiple boss spawns simultaneously

Level 5: All modifiers active, Shiny Akaza exclusive reward

Tips:

  • Practice on lower levels to understand enemy patterns
  • Each level builds on the previous one's mechanics
  • Level 5 requires mastery of all previous challenges

Top Units for Breach Challenge

varied budget

Best units to use across all breach difficulty levels.

Kokushibo (Moon Demon): The current meta definer with exceptional DPS

Shiny Akaza: Breach exclusive with true damage and infinite scaling

Shinobu Kocho: The Poison Master, excellent for sustained damage

Zenitsu (Legendary/Mythic): High burst damage for boss waves

Akaza (Base): Farmable from Demon Place Portal, good for mid-tier players

Tips:

  • Kokushibo is essential for Level 4 and 5
  • Use poison units for armored enemies
  • High attack speed units excel against invisible enemies

Secret Units from Breach Challenge

How to unlock hidden units through Breach mastery.

Secret Unit #2: Achieve a perfect run in Breach Challenge Level 5 (no damage taken)

Requirements: Complete Level 5 without losing any lives

Difficulty: Extreme - requires optimal team composition and perfect execution

Tips:

  • Practice Level 5 multiple times before attempting perfect run
  • Use units with crowd control to prevent leaks
  • Positioning is critical for success

Pearl Economy for Breach Challenge

high budget

How to optimize your pearl spending for breach success.

Never spend Pearls on anything except specific meta unit enchants

The +50% damage enchants for Kokushibo pay for themselves within 3 Final Expedition runs

Save Pearls exclusively for meta unit enchants that help with Breach Challenge

Enchanting your main DPS units is more cost-effective than summoning new units

Tips:

  • Prioritize Kokushibo enchants first
  • Don't waste pearls on cosmetics
  • Focus on damage-boosting enchants over utility enchants

Unit Positioning and Traits

Advanced positioning strategies for maximizing unit effectiveness.

Testing revealed that many 'meta' units were underperforming compared to properly-built alternatives

A well-positioned common unit with proper traits often out-damages poorly-placed legendaries

Use the new DPS tracker to verify which strategies actually work versus what merely seems effective

Tips:

  • Experiment with different positions for each unit
  • Check DPS tracker after each wave to identify weak units
  • Traits and positioning matter more than rarity alone
  • Corner positions often maximize AoE coverage

Budget-Friendly Breach Teams

low budget

Teams for players who don't have access to premium units.

Akaza (Base): Farmable from Demon Place Portal with standard rates

Best For: New players needing strong mid-tier units

Focus on obtaining units through Demon Place Portal

Save gems for crucial summons rather than spending on cosmetics

Tips:

  • Farm Demon Place Portal daily for Akaza
  • Common units with good traits can work for Level 1-3
  • Join co-op missions to earn more summoning resources
