B Rozen Blade · Farah · Sundiata developer pick Mid progression Beats 3 of 8 reference lineups 76.23/100 out of 100 Rozen Blade (S03), Farah (X11) and Sundiata (X15) score 76.23 out of 100 together, and each of the three has a job.
Rozen Blade is the lock: every squad silenced or suppressed is a turn the enemy plan does not happen — Blitz applies Suppress for 1 round on a 30% roll, and takes the front as the sturdiest of the three. Farah is the multiplier, raising what the other two put out rather than adding a number of its own: carries 100% of damage amplification across its kit, and sits in the middle, where the support reaches both the front and the back. Sundiata is the win condition, bringing 77% of the lineup's expected damage: Flame of Revenge puts 537% into one enemy squad on a 40% roll, and stays in the back, out of the enemy's easy reach, and those range-5 skills lose nothing for it. The lineup works because Rozen Blade’s Swarming Attack produces extra basic attacks, the exact trigger Farah and Sundiata both wait on; Rozen Blade’s Blitz applies Suppress and takes a squad out of the fight for 1 round, so Sundiata swings into a line that cannot answer; Farah raises Sundiata’s output directly rather than adding a number of its own. What you give up: raw damage reaches only about 14% of the hardest-hitting trio in the roster; the damage runs off different engines, so the three do not compound. Budget note: every hero in this lineup can be completed without spending. This is one of the lineups recommended in-game by the developers -- the score above is what that classic core is still worth against the current roster.
