Strong Approaching Guide - Azure Fang

Strong Approaching is the newest update given to us by the creators of this game and with its approach is a brand new way to customize our characters and gain combat points (CP). The problem with this new update is its difficulty; especially for those who are barely a month old on this game and are unsure of such things as 'combos', 'acupuncture', 'chase', etc. Players in different servers have found it taxing to complete even the easiest mode for Strong Approaching, whether they're using a heavy damage character, an aoe, a tank, or others. We, those who use a support/heal character aka Azure Fang, also find the easy mode a daunting and difficult task, often finding our heals barely enough to keep our line up alive, lacking hp, unable to find a combo, and more.

Easy Mode
Formation:
Water Main + Kimimaro + Kakashi + Kabuto

Where to obtain these ninjas:
- Kimimaro is given out for clearing Plot Instance Chapter 5- The Final Valley.
- Kabuto is obtained either by Seal Treasure or by buying him in the Survival Trial Shop.
- Kakashi is given out early on in the game and can be upgraded via Elite Instance.

Reasons for their formation:
- Kimimaro is a defense for our two slightly vulnerable characters (Azure and Kakashi), he has a chance of evading the first standard attack and damage dealt to him only leads to an increase of defense and resistance.
- Kabuto is left by himself due to his and the others clones. At the start, he would be protected by both Azure and Kakashi's clone. While on the other following rounds, he will be protected by his mystery attack Dead Soul Jutsu.
- Kakashi and Azure may switch positions but I prefer Kakashi to be as protected as possible due to his importance and my confidence in Azure's hp/defense/resistance.

Other Lineup choices:
- For Kabuto: Sai. Sai would be preferable due to his ability to create Super Beast Imitation Drawing thus replenishing the clones lost. He's obtained either by Seal Treasure or by buying him in the ranked battle shop. If you find yourselves not needing the clones, any support characters (healers) could replace Kabuto. Sakura or Karin are the easiest to obtain but any would do. Just make sure that their pursuit (chase) and create (cause) can connect with your other characters.
- For Kakashi: Sasuke (3-stars). Sasuke 3 stars has 3 chases and thus a great replacement for Kakashi if needed. He c*so create quite a combo. The only reason as to why he's not part of the official line up is due to the fact that its harder to obtain a 3 star Sasuke than it is to get Kakashi. To obtain him, you should use the Chase Missions found in Hot Topics and sweep all Elite Instance that gives him out for sever
- For Kimimaro: Guy or Kiba. Guy can be obtained by clearing Elite Instance lvl 50. Kiba is obtained once you clear Elite Instance lvl 30.

Wave One
Not much can and should be done here, using Auto attack is encouraged due to the fact that the lineup can easily kill the 3 giants and have spare chakra to heal each other.

Wave Two
For this wave, I would highly suggest controlling your characters manually to make sure that the wave is easily overcomed and to lessen the rounds between Shizune and yourself. The trick into finishing this wave is by holding onto Kakashi and Kimimaro's mystery attacks. Spam Kabuto's mystery attack and use Azure's Regenerative Healing Jutsu as soon as Shizune attacks and heals herself. Once the dead souls attack, use Kakashi's skill and watch the combo happen before your eyes. As that round ends, her hp around 7 to 8 due to dead souls and combos, Shizune will once again use her Poision Fog. Quickly after her attack, use Kimimaro's mystery attack which allows for another set of combo that easily defeats Shizune.

Wave Three
For the last wave, make sure to click Karin before using Kakashi or Kimimaro's attack thus allowing Karin to be the focus of their combos. Spam Kabuto's attack to keep him safe while use Azure Fang's heals after Hanzo uses his mystery attack to regain hp after. Once you defeat Karin, its easy to defeat Hanzo, and thus easy to complete the mode. This post was last edited by Trismite at 2016-9-3 21:22
