Three party builds that carried me through Emberfall Saga

Emberfall Saga gives you cheap respecs, so I ended up experimenting a lot more than I usually do in a mobile RPG. After finishing the main campaign, here are the three party setups that consistently worked for me.

The first is the classic front-line wall: a heavy tank, a straightforward damage dealer, and a healer. It's boring but bulletproof for the early chapters, and it teaches you the combat's positioning rules without much risk.

My favorite is the debuff team. Turning my healer into a debuffer, as I mentioned in our review, opened up fights I'd been losing. Stack weakness and slow on a boss and the whole encounter tilts in your favor. It takes a couple of turns to set up, so pair it with a durable tank.

The third is a glass-cannon burst team that ends fights before they get dangerous. It's fragile and it fails hard against fast enemies, but against slow armored bosses it's the quickest path through.

Whatever you run, use the respec option. The game practically encourages you to rebuild between chapters, and adapting to each area beats forcing one comp the whole way through.
