Wave 1:
A demanding challenge with revival pressure; plan counters and sustained recovery.
Skull Knight seals kills and Guts can gain turns from critical hits. Remove the dangerous attacker before deaths snowball, or use a proper Phys anti-Pierce pairing.
DemiurgeSummon-onlyPair his Repel/Drain Pierce effects with actual Phys Repel/Drain affinities to deny the listed enemy attacks and reduce the enemy’s turns.
Setup: Keep him alive and cover Phys on the other demons.
Watch out: Almighty, fractional damage and explicit Anti-Pierce bypasses remain dangerous.
HirokoLimited collaborationMerciful Gaze removes revive ban before reviving fallen allies, which specifically helps recover from Skull Knight’s sealed kills. It also gives an extra turn.
Setup: Limited summon; recovery has a per-battle limit.
AinzLimited collaborationFallen Down bypasses elemental affinities and ignores death prevention, useful for a targeted finish on Skull Knight or Guts. Its single-target opener lets you choose the priority enemy; the follow-up damages the rest and debuffs them.
Setup: Collaboration-exclusive; build MATK and max the active skill.
Watch out: Its damage reduction does not cover Almighty or Light.
Choose complementary roles from demons you own. These are matchup suggestions, not a verified automatic-clear team.
