Abyssal Cup III

[RedRum]

I'm struggling on this one. My current strat is using Galleo, T&T, and Copernica but I am unable to heal/shield enough to deal with the poison. Any tips?

I have beat it on knight difficulty with my best team: coppernica, galleo and armilly. I think to unlock this cup you have to be at the end of the game so you should have unlocked all cards. This is my standard set up for bosses/cups apart from the last one. Armilly: Bravado upgraded
2 hot iron
2 double edge
Brave buster
Intercept
True heroes
Weapon: at that time I was still using the one you get in the story that improves your heals
Accessories: power servo
Journeyman badge (I don't think you have access to the best ones yet in the shop, of you do Fierce Deity's bead is a good one)
Coppernica: Focus (can use glass cannon too)
Mana barrier (upgraded)
2 electrolyze (upgraded)
Creeping cold
2 fire pillars
Meteor
Weapon: best one you can get with barrier as the chain card
Accessories: power booster and journeyman badge if you don't have access to the sorcerer bangle
Galleo: chill out (upgraded)
2 miracle workers
Blindside (upgraded)
Poison (upgraded)
Quick fix
Mend
Regeneration (upgraded)
Weapon: phalanx fists
Accessories: pure sash (I think you get it in a previous cup) otherwise I uses to run black belt
Ancient locket

Didn't use T&T but if I was to use them I'd probably use my usual set up: against all odds (upgraded)
Steal strength
3 Culling axe
Raven strike
Twin combo
Usually I use thel with Orik so I use dagger toss but anything with a gear cost of 2 or less shoukd be ok as a reolacement
Weapon: vile arsenal
Accessories: snake charm
Power servo

I put upgraded on the cards you really need upgraded, the other ones are a bonus. Basically armilly hits hard and can heal for 2 gears with true heroes
Coppernica helps diminish the rng factor by adding a redraw with focus and letting you draw 2 additionnal cards with upgrades electrolyze. She also deals a ton and helps with her barriers heal you comfortably.
Galleo heals a ton for cheap with miracle worker + quick fix if you don't have the gears to spare and more expensive with mend, his card chain helps a lot too. Blindside and poison can help chain without any gear cost and are pretty lengthy debuffs and really strong. Regeneration helps counter the poison. Try to always have regeneration on as it mitigates poison damage. When there is only one monster left alive heal your entire party before launching the next fight. Coppernica chain card plus regeneration lets you heal through the poison

You can beat it on legend with solo Copernica. Just Mana Barrier + Barrier book every turn, and make sure you can do 4150 damage in 1 turn to kill the final boss.

What I use
Ironbound Tome
Fierce Deity's Bead + Pure Sash.

Elementary!
Burning Desire
Mana Barrier
Book Bash x2
Arcane Detective
Dispel
Magic Mirror

Solo Armilly. Intercept x2, Bravado x2, Cleave, Hot Iron x2, Aspiring Hero.

Ancient sword, death chime, power booster.

If you're going to solo Armilly, don't equip any items that boosts HP because it probably means you're going to take more damage from poison. Damage damage damage. You'll outheal the damage you take if you play correctly.

Got it from third attempt even without potions and ressurect. 43 lvl G+C+A. Ensure you are fully healed before entering the next phase. Shields/heal + fire deal the job.

Anyone knows why the last arena is locked? It displays 50/50 challenges are done.

@Git. You need to get every treasure in the game to unlock it.

Thx! It's unlocked now somehow. But i haven't all treasures. Not all maps are 100% discovered.
Strange..

I'm fairly sure just beating the game unlocks them all.

This worked great for me, with a few tweaks. The equipment I used was Blazing Claymore, Power Booster and Pure Sash. Also, replaced cleave with Heartbroken hero, which I only used against the final boss (not really necessary in previous battles). Also, had to use one full heal potion, since I could not sustain health with just bravado. I was expecting Heartbroken hero's Despair effect to be helpful, however it's damage was so high it killed Gilgamech.

I can confirme this works even in legendary remix mode. I just swapped magic mirror for glass cannon since I didt use magic mirror the time I tried before beating it (gilgamech had 20 hp left >_<).

Thanks for the build, I was having a ton of trouble with it.
