Sooner or later you will also realize that going back in forth for your favorite units, or units that you lose that are getting bonuses from equipped items can be a real pain in the ass, and will cause a boredom to this game at various points ( even though you will only be bored for the run back ).

Using the reserve 2/2 will allow you to hold 2 more units that do not participate in battle until you swap them out with another unit. Usually it's wise to replace with a unit that is extremely low in numbers or has fallen in battle.

Simple as this: While doing this quest, whatever units you have in reserve will not be cut in 1/2, and will continue to stay as they are when you pull them from reserve after entering. Make sure it is a somewhat strong unit that is maxed out and preferably receiving bonuses from a majority of the equipped items. Using the Spirit "Lina" in this quest can be very useful for 1 of 2 reasons...

1: Gizmo is extremely useful for the Damage it gives, and for the 0 it receives.

2. Ice Thorns: Isolating 1/2 of the melee units can make it easier for all your units to rotate on one side, usually the upper 1/2 of the grid on their side, so that way you won't have to worry about not being able to counter-attack units or focusing on other units rather than archers. ( THIS TACTIC CAN BE USED FOR JUST ABOUT ANY BATTLE, USING IT IN THIS ONE IS A MUST AT A LOW LEVEL)

I hope this helps.

Doesn't seem to be anything new... Besides, there are tonnes of overpowered strategies that can let you finish this in a breeze anyway.........
