❌ Top 10 Mistakes to Avoid

Random Stat Point Allocation

❌ Problem: Distributing hero stat points without planning leads to weak late-game performance
✓ Solution: Follow episode-specific stat allocation guides, prioritize each hero's strengths

Recruiting Weak Heroes Too Early

❌ Problem: Hiring low-tier heroes wastes resources and roster space
✓ Solution: Follow recruitment order: Invisigal → Blazer → Coupé → Flambae → Prism → Sonar → Malevola → Golem → Punch Up

Ignoring Synergy System

❌ Problem: Sending heroes without checking synergies loses 10-20% success rate bonus
✓ Solution: Always check hero relationship chart before dispatching, pair synergistic heroes

Hoarding Consumable Items

❌ Problem: Saving items for 'later' means failing missions now
✓ Solution: Use items strategically on high-risk missions - they're meant to be used, not collected

Poor Save Management

❌ Problem: Not saving frequently means losing hours of progress after mistakes
✓ Solution: Manual save: before each episode, before critical decisions, after mission successes

Rushing Difficult Missions

❌ Problem: Attempting hard missions without preparation leads to failures
✓ Solution: If success rate < 85%, wait for hero recovery, level up heroes, or use items

Wrong Romance Choice

❌ Problem: Choosing Invisigal locks you out of Unity ending path
✓ Solution: Choose Blonde Blazer in Episode 3 if targeting Unity ending (as per perfect route)

Skipping Hacking Minigames

❌ Problem: Failing hacking reduces Intellect temporarily, causes mission failures
✓ Solution: Practice hacking paths in advance, use Focus Pills if struggling

Ignoring Hero Fatigue

❌ Problem: Overworking heroes leads to failures and injuries
✓ Solution: Rotate heroes, never dispatch fatigued heroes on hard missions

Missing Achievement Timing

❌ Problem: Some achievements are missable if not done at specific times
✓ Solution: Follow achievement unlock schedule, don't skip optional objectives

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Can I achieve a perfect run on my first playthrough?

It's extremely difficult. Most players need 2-3 attempts to learn mission patterns and optimal strategies. Consider your first playthrough as a learning experience.

What happens if I fail one mission?

Load your most recent save immediately. Perfect runs require 0 failures, so any failure means you need to reload a previous save point.

Is there a difference between Unity ending and Perfect Unity ending?

Yes! Perfect Unity (S-Rank) requires completing ALL 166 missions with 0 injuries, maintaining high team unity, and making all correct decisions. It unlocks a special extended cutscene.

When should I use consumable items?

Use items on high-difficulty missions (4-10, 6-8, 7-5, final mission). Don't hoard them - they're meant to be used to ensure success.

Can I romance Invisigal and still get Unity ending?

No. Unity ending requires choosing Blonde Blazer in Episode 3. Invisigal romance leads to a different ending path.
