whats a good team to have mid game?

[Rayburt]

im currently 20 hours in, i got rid of mio for lugo

[GalanOfTruth]

My biggest tip for this game is to use any characters that have the Charge command for defense, to call it OP is an understatement in my opinion. Tbh anyone else felt viable to me but having at least 1 or 2 characters that can break shields and 1 or 2 that can use the Water full party healing spells are all you need to worry about.

Iugo, Yusuke, Hakugin, Falward, Isha, Lam

[Rayburt]

Kogen, Kuroto, Zabi, Protag then. You need protag for duels anyway unless you intend to lose it (the story never intended for you to win the 1st duel but you can try)

Any reasonable combination of above average character is viable. Just put in what you like, and avoid low HP characters (i.e.: below average) that can got knocked out often.

Iugo, Yusuke, Koruto, Falward, Francesca and Nowa. Though there is a good argument to be made to replace Nowa or Koruto with Kogen, who has the only AOE SP skill at this point in the game.

Once you get Great Wood, don't push into the Treefolk village immediately after beating the ancient seed so you can double back and get Gieren. He is a very chunky spellcaster with a 20% discount on all spells. He can easily replace both Falward and Francesca in the buffs and healing department, so that opens up one more slot for you to play with. Personally I'd go with either Garr, Lian, Zabi or Mellore.

atm im forced to have a member on my team, but right now its sabine,bernard,lugo,gar,lian,nowa

[Do It For Hargon]

zabi-chan carries my whole team, sometimes even one-shots the next area enemies i go to (and is above level from everyone else lol), but i usually take all the kogen bois and rotate other people besides them unless i just feel like leveling lower members.

yusuke is probably one of the "most op" for me so far too.

zabi-chan hasnt left my team at all since his introduction tho.

If you don't like them, you can always kick them to Attendant status.

Attack Range: (S)=Short. (M)=Medium. (L) = Long; DD= Damage Dealer.

characters worth using (in my opinion):

Reyna: (S) Tank with high HP/DEF/RES, can cover the same row and counterattack.

Falward: (L) Spellcaster, good stat spread, OP Hero Combo with Francesca.

Francesca: (L) Spellcaster, squishy early game, gets much better lategame. (hp ring and hp helmet are recommended) with Falward can do a full teamheal + attackbuff (3sp)

Milana : (L) Spellcaster, best stats I've seen so far for a caster. 3 magic rune-slots and 1 passive rune-slot, 2SP attack that targets all enemies.

Garr: (M) DD. Kit is nothing special but you get him from the beginning and he stays good throughout most of the game

Kogen (M) DD, Front row Tank stats with M range, his rune lets him attack a row for 4SP
High HP/ATK/DEF ok MP/RES, can work as a buffer for the team as buffs don't need Magic stat.

Iugo: (S) Damage/Tank a bit squishy early but get's good around level 25ish and is great till the end.

Yusuke: (S) Tank/DD, Charge Up is a really good skill. it halfs your damage while charging and increases your next attack by 3times. it can also be charged twice in a row for 5times damage.

Galdorf (S) Tank/DD, has Charge Up, same as Yusuke. BUT has better HP/ATK/DEF, has low RES so might struggle a bit more against caster.

Prunella (L) DD Has high MP and good HP/ATK/DEF/RES making her the best ranged dd so far (haven't unlocked all characters yet) other ranged DD fall off earlier

Other than these ones are obviously Nowa and Seign.
I use Nowa, Reyna, Seign, Francesca, Fallward and last is fill, but most of the time either Milana or Prunella

IMO mid game = shark city arc, so there would be in the list

Yuferius Reyna Iugo Garr Sabine Nowa Lian Milana Mellore Isha Hakugin Lam

Some will get stronger since lv 40+, so I suggest to use them now and invest for late game. While some like Yusuke or Falward gonna status drop since lv 40+. You can keep them for a while but don't rely on them much.

In this game, there is no need to preventively leveling characters who you don't need to use them now.

You can even bring a level 10 character with you in late-game fighting level 50+ enemies, and he/she will catch up very fast. Just use 1~2 of you leading main characters to bomb the enemies with spell of skill, and the newbie character will catch up in 3~10 battles.

Hakugin is fantastic for carrying random battles. She has high speed and power and a 2 SP row AoE that doesn't tank her turn order. So, she can usually hit 3 enemies for good damage and make mopping up easy after that, especially after you get the +1 SP accessory.

You don't need to invest in them early. During the route split, your characters all scale towards a certain level even if you have never used them before.
46 for the invasion where you split 3 parties to defeat undead.
53 for end game.
Unless you exceed that certain level threshold, game will not consider character as underlevelled and will not increase their level for you not to get stuck by route split.
Only characters that leave/join during the route split will not have level scaling. But since there are more than 2 route split and the earlier ones I grinded everyone and wasted my time to even notice.
