Strategy:

• Team Composition: Essential to have a balanced team including a healer, a buffer, a debuffer, and strong damage dealers. Consider elemental advantages.
• Debuffs: Applying debuffs like ATK Break, DEF Break, and Slow is crucial for controlling the fight and increasing damage output.
• Crowd Control: Stuns, freezes, and sleeps can significantly reduce incoming damage and allow your team to recover or deal damage safely.
• Healers & Cleansers: Vital for surviving boss's heavy-hitting attacks and removing harmful debuffs.
• Damage Output: Focus on monsters that can deal consistent damage, especially against high-HP bosses. Consider DoT (Damage over Time) effects.
• Adaptability: Be prepared to adjust your team based on the specific floor's enemies and boss mechanics. Not every team works for every floor.
• Rune Optimization: Ensure your monsters have well-tuned runes that complement their roles and the challenges ahead. Speed, Accuracy, Resistance, and HP/DEF are often key stats.
