Strategy
is a very tough opponent. It can deal massive damage and has two Branches with it, which can Heal and summon more monsters.

In almost all strategies a good healer is needed. It's also nice to have some characters which can take MP well (Such as Wisdom based Enutrofs or any Cra with level 5 Lashing Arrow). Taking range away from is also a good way to protect your team from getting attacked by non-linear spells (-10 range is enough unless it buffs for +63 range, which it will have for 25% of the fight, on average).

Once in the fight you should aim to kill the Summoning Branch first as it can summon a range of monsters, then the Healing Branch then last the.

It should also be noted that all of s attraction and pushback spells have an AoE of at least 2, which means they can pull/push at least 2 characters per side, like a reverse Release then a normal Release plus massive damage. The best strategy no matter your team is to stay out of line with.
