Fjorm and Nifl Strategy

Use a Hit and Run strategy!

This map has no reinforcements, making a Hit and Run strategy viable. It also helps that most of the enemies are grouped together, allowing Galeforce users to immediately go on the offensive after their first actions.

The enemies will not move until you either attack a foe or end turn inside their threat range. You can use the first few turns to position your units for the perfect engage.

Since Ascended Fjorm has A/R Far Save 3 to protect her allies and has a pre-charged Ice Mirror backed up by bonus damage reduction from Nifl's Domain of Ice, we recommend initiating with a melee unit with an extra action post-combat from skills like Galeforce.

Approach any enemy that isn't Ascended Fjorm, defeat them in combat, and then use the extra action plus other assists from your other units to retreat to safety.

The enemies will then start charging towards your team. Clean up the rest of the map from there.

Alternatively, use a tanking strategy!

The enemies here can be defeated with a tanking strategy easily, as none of them are too threatening offensively. There are various effects that prevent counterattacks, however, such as Nifl's Frostbite Breath and the Cleric's Flash+ and Dazzling Shift, so prepare accordingly.

Skills like Null C-Disrupt or even your own Ascended Fjorm's Nifl's Bite help mitigate this issue if you have them.

We recommend baiting the enemies in on the rightmost column. At that spot, only the Red Mage and the Green Fafnir can reach your bait unit, and they shouldn't pose too much trouble. Once the enemies start charging forward, pick them off at your leisure.

An advantage of using a tanking strategy is neutralizing the effectiveness of Ascended Fjorm. She lacks mobility and her A/R Far Save 3 is useless on enemy phase. You can safely leave her as the last foe and focus down the other units instead.
