The game, as always, pushes the player to try out different team builds to overcome its challenge. While the main game will be fairly easy, taking on the challenges will be a bit difficult, since you will face enemies’ resistance to different elements. The game also has trials that require a specific type of damage to finish them. In short, different builds are more than necessary to get through the majority of the content in the game.

Tips to Build a Solid Team:
Follow the tips to create a team with little to no weaknesses.
- Just focus on DPS/ Sustainer/ Buffer or Debuffer, you will have all the ingredients to create a good enough team in the game.
- Every teammate’s abilities should complement each other in terms of raising the attack rate or damage dealt. In the Curse Team build, we have the Joker. To make his curse attack powerful, we choose Rin. Rin has Full Bloom ability, allowing her to increase the curse damage dealt to enemies. Or choosing Key with Panther on the Fire Team Build helped deal more Fire damage to enemies.
- Feel free to swap the DPS with any other if you are facing different obstacles in the game. As long as the Buffer and Healer in the team are on point, you can swap the DPS dealer from fire to curse based on your need.
- While you can focus on offense, as most combat scenarios will require a good amount of damage dealing. The game also throws curveballs, as it sometimes requires you to play defensively. Here, you need to keep sustainability in mind. A good example would be Morgana, who can heal outside of a turn and revive. A healer that can be very advantageous in keeping up the health and reviving allies from death.
- When it comes to Wonder (Main Protagonist), choose a Weapon and a Persona relating to the Team’s build. A cursed persona with a good weapon can help elevate your Cursed Build team to a new height.
