Basics
  • You normally get the first turn in a battle so take advantage of your team's initial position by moving them into attack range or position.
  • Attacking an enemy from the side or rear does much more damage than a frontal assault.
  • Use the cursor to see the health, magic, and weapon of your force and the enemy's.
  • Watch your position when attacking magic wielding enemies since many spells can hit more than one hex at a time.
  • It's best to stick together around non-magic wielding foes so that they can't surround you as easily.
  • If you don't like the position or attack potential during a move, then just press the B button a few times to return to the given character's original position.
  • Attack with ranged weapons first, then move in for the close-combat kill.
  • Always finish off one enemy at a time by surrounding him/her.
  • Whenever you can, hit an enemy with 0 health for a chance to gain bonus magic points.
  • Try to bait one enemy at a time when magic wielding enemies are in a group.
