While strategies vary in this chapter, the seemingly best strategy for unit preservation is to start out with all of the slower units in the group on the left and slow on the right. If you have a [[Restore Staff]], it is highly recommended because of the [[Berserk Staff]] the Druids wield in Vigarde's room and the [[Bishop]] with the [[Sleep Staff]] on the left. As there are Archers and a Sniper with Longbows, it is your pick if you want to let your flying units, as the Archers on the two sides won't move unless they can attack a unit, and the two Archers and Sniper in the middle will be unable to move around. [[Artur]] and [[Lute]] will come in handy because of the Knights, although it should be noted that most if not all of the Knights are armed with Javelins. [[Colm]] is not exactly needed with his lockpick because you can gain Rennac, who can automatically open all chests and doors, but nevertheless is still nice to have. [[Neimi]], if she is alive and has a [[Longbow]], would also find herself quite useful here.

Start by pouring everyone onto the left side of the map, using your lance-users (preferably Cavaliers) to guard against the reinforcements that will chase the group down on the right side. Ignore the central treasure room, as you can always go back later. However, if you have any low movement units, it would be best to have another unit ferry them or kill them as they always have [[Javelin]]s.
  
   
  +
===In [[Creature Campaign]]===
−
As you move the units upwards on the left side, the Bishop behind the large door on the left begins to use Sleep on your units. Reinforcements also arrive on the left, but they are very easy to defeat if you have decent units and have been training on the [[Tower of Valni]] and Monster skirmishes. Kill the Knight in the middle of the large door to obtain a door key. Then quickly kill the Bishop. The units on the right side will not pay any attention at all, apart the reinforcements, so you can deal with them later when you want to for items and XP. Make sure you have a decent unit that has a C Rank in Staffs so they can use the Restore staff to remove the Sleep/Berserk effects.

Once you open the door(s), enemies will begin to move in, including the Knights and [[Myrmidon]]. If you have any units near the doors, attack the Bishop behind the door as it is likely their Sleep/Silence will still have some charges and each one has Shine, which can deal a considerable amount of damage to your troops.

While strategies vary in this chapter, the seemingly best strategy for unit preservation is to start out with all of the slower units in the group on the left and the fastest on the right. If you have a [[Restore]] staff, it is highly recommended because of the [[Berserk (staff)|Berserk]] staff the two Druids wield in Vigarde's room, the [[Bishop]] wielding the [[Sleep (staff)|Sleep]] staff to the west, and the Bishop wielding the [[Silence Staff|Silence]] staff to the east. As there are Archers and a Sniper with Longbows, it is your pick if you want to move your flying units to that vicinity, as the Archers on the two sides won't move unless they can attack a unit, and the two Archers and Sniper in the middle will be unable to move around with a friendly flying unit there.
   
  +
Rennac spawns in the north-eastern ring. He will immediately loot the chest next to him, before proceeding to the north-western chest. He will not bother with the cluster of chests in the middle. As he will save a lot of time in opening chests and doors and has the only [[Member Card]] (the one he has makes it easy to get, as the other method is extremely time consuming), it is highly recommended to recruit him. '''DO NOT''' use Ephraim to start a conversation, as Rennac will demand 10,000 gold to join. Have [[L'Arachel]] talk to him instead, as Rennac will reluctantly join your army at no cost.
−
If you plan to attack both ways, make sure your units do not have any Killer or any other weapon (Lancereavers, Anti-dragon weaponry) because the Druids in the throne room may get lucky and make your unit go Berserk, and the affected unit may attack your weak units or specific unit and kill them. Make sure if they are low on health to heal them as they may also attack enemy units that they should not attack. An example would be the two Druids in the throne room, as one has Luna and another has Nosferatu which can deal decent damage against any of your units.
  
   
  +
Push through the enemies as quickly as possible. Note that all of the knights are equipped with [[Javelin]]s, so use high strength and speed units to get rid of the two groups at the gates to the sides. Watch the range of the Archers and Sniper, as they're all equipped with [[Longbow]]s. Upon rushing the gates and killing all enemies within range, players should be incredibly careful at this point.
−
When waiting out for the Druid's Berserk staffs, block the square where only one unit can get through. That way, Rennac will go around the whole map to go onto the other side. Rennac will not attack your units.
  
   
  +
This is due to two [[Druid]]s in the throne room carrying [[Berserk (staff)|Berserk]] staves. If their staff hits, the affected unit goes in a rage, searching and attacking any unit. This can cause the death of a weaker unit brought along when the berserk unit attacks them. To counter this, either send in a unit with very high Resistance, or simply bait them with Phantoms. [[Ewan]] is a good choice if invested into, as the Druids will not attempt to use Berserk on him, or as a Summoner, the phantoms will barely deal any damage if they spawn with an iron axe.
⚫
==Trivia==
  
  +
−
*Once the Druids in the throne room have run out of Berserk charges, one of them will then have a Red Gem in their inventory. Checking it while they still have their Berserk charges will not show the Red Gem.
  
  +
Vigarde is the only threat in this level, possessing high stats. However, he's only equipped with a [[Spear]], which has 15 uses. If Ewan is a Summoner, you could simply summon phantoms to until Vigarde's spear breaks, after which he has no means to defend himself (this can also be used for experience abusing). If he is not a Summoner, your best best is to use anti-armor weapons alongside high accuracy due to Vigarde's moderate speed and throne bonuses.

Subjective: The following part of this article is based upon the editor's personal experiences and opinions, and therefore may not be applicable for all readers.

While strategies vary in this chapter, the seemingly best strategy for unit preservation is to start out with all of the slower units in the group on the left and the fastest on the right. If you have a Restore staff, it is highly recommended because of the Berserk staff the two Druids wield in Vigarde's room, the Bishop wielding the Sleep staff to the west, and the Bishop wielding the Silence staff to the east. As there are Archers and a Sniper with Longbows, it is your pick if you want to move your flying units to that vicinity, as the Archers on the two sides won't move unless they can attack a unit, and the two Archers and Sniper in the middle will be unable to move around with a friendly flying unit there.

Rennac spawns in the north-eastern ring. He will immediately loot the chest next to him, before proceeding to the north-western chest. He will not bother with the cluster of chests in the middle. As he will save a lot of time in opening chests and doors and has the only Member Card (the one he has makes it easy to get, as the other method is extremely time consuming), it is highly recommended to recruit him. DO NOT use Ephraim to start a conversation, as Rennac will demand 10,000 gold to join. Have L'Arachel talk to him instead, as Rennac will reluctantly join your army at no cost.

Push through the enemies as quickly as possible. Note that all of the knights are equipped with Javelins, so use high strength and speed units to get rid of the two groups at the gates to the sides. Watch the range of the Archers and Sniper, as they're all equipped with Longbows. Upon rushing the gates and killing all enemies within range, players should be incredibly careful at this point.

This is due to two Druids in the throne room carrying Berserk staves. If their staff hits, the affected unit goes in a rage, searching and attacking any unit. This can cause the death of a weaker unit brought along when the berserk unit attacks them. To counter this, either send in a unit with very high Resistance, or simply bait them with Phantoms. Ewan is a good choice if invested into, as the Druids will not attempt to use Berserk on him, or as a Summoner, the phantoms will barely deal any damage if they spawn with an iron axe.

If Ewan is a Summoner, you could simply summon phantoms to until Vigarde's spear breaks, after which he has no means to defend himself (this can also be used for experience abusing). If he is not a Summoner, your best best is to use anti-armor weapons alongside high accuracy due to Vigarde's moderate speed and throne bonuses.
