Tips

• See testimonials and discussions.
• Bonus enemies will appear with higher frequency the higher the stage is.
  • Golden Bomb drops 500 currency on defeat.
  • Captain drops 1000 currency on defeat.
• Maps will drop randomly from the boss, but are unaffected by item drop rate passives.
• You can use Escape to avoid any regular battle, but it isn't recommended as you will lose some currency.
• Using many low level bonus units on LGD is difficult but possible with some gearing.
  • Befriend and/or use a strong friend unit with high bonus.
  • Use two or more bonus units with Pod 153, and they will be able to produce high chain for the strong unit to finish.
  • Use Defensive Freeze, Rikku's Pouch or World Destroyer to break their defenses.
  • Use Crazy Day for imperil if needed.
  • Use Hero's Rime from Siren or Apollo Harp to buff ATK/DEF/MAG/SPR.
