Advanced Strategies and Team Building
With the new leader skills, unit categories, and traits introduced in Update 0.5, team building in Anime Story 2 has become more strategic. Understanding these mechanics is key to conquering the new Nature Tower and story mode challenges.
Understanding Leader Skills
Leader skills provide powerful buffs to specific unit categories when the unit with the skill is placed in the first slot of your team.
| Leader Skill Unit | Condition | Buff Applied | Affected Category |
|---|---|---|---|
| Magic Emperor | Unit in Slot One | +20% Max HP | Rivals Allies |
| Julius King | Unit in Slot One | +20% Crit Damage | King Allies |
| Asta (Devil) | Unit in Slot One | +15% Damage | Sword User Allies |
| Time Emperor | Unit on Field | No Elemental Weakness | Light Allies |
| Flame Lion | Unit in Slot One | +10% Damage | Brawler Allies |
| Yuno (Mythic) | Unit in Slot One | +50% Crit | Captain Allies |
| Black Bull | Unit in Slot One | +50% Crit | Captain Allies |
Remember that leader skills typically only activate if the specified unit is in the designated "slot one." Misplacing your leader can severely impact your team's performance.
Nature Tower Strategy
The new Nature Tower mode presents a unique challenge, often with specific elemental weaknesses or passive locks. For example, fire, nature, and neutral units might receive a debuff in this mode, while others get elemental bonuses.
Elemental Advantage
- Identify the elemental weaknesses of Nature Tower enemies.
- Prioritize units with elemental advantages for maximum damage.
- Leverage units that gain buffs in the Nature Tower.
Passive Management
- Some units' passives might be locked in Nature Tower.
- Adjust your team composition to rely less on locked passives.
- Focus on units with strong active skills or unaffected passives.
