Unicorn Overlord | How to Get The Most Out of Your Tactics 

FINALLY someone who understands how to use the Tactics system in this! Great work.

If you have two "prioritize" type conditions set for skill only condition 2 will work because it overrides condition 1. That's because you can't prioritize two different things at the same time and the game checks condition 1 then condition 2.

For the First Aid skill, it would be better to target Lowest % HP instead of Lowest HP. You could have someone with 30HP of 30HP, with another unit having 35 of 40HP. With lowest HP, the 30HP member would be healed when they are full HP. Instead using lowest % HP will heal the member who has the lowest % of HP left. When it comes to attacking though, usually you'd want to aim for lowest HP versus attacking someone with lowest % HP. It's too bad that there is a limit of 8 slots for setting priorities, so you have to be careful on how many options you provide 1 skill to activate with. For the Crush attack, an option would be to attack anyone with 1 or more AP or PP (depends on your target). If 1 enemy can't do anything but 1 can, it would be better to stun and defeat the 1 enemy who could attack next round instead of stunning someone who has no more turns. If you want to maximize enemy lockdown, there is a condition to only target non afflicted enemies. That way if you have a unit setup with stunning, burning, poison, and freezing, those members can hit enemies that do not have an affliction on them versus setting multiple priorities based on each type such as burn and then poison etc.

I just noticed. Pay attention if your unit is walking or running. My first desert biome really forced me to pay attention to the roads. Use the griffing rider buff because I was mostly infantry with just two flying units. in terms of leveling. i noticed the final fight in every battle gets you lots of xp and money ... so you might want to have a liquid fortune at hand

I'm enjoying Unicorn so much, glad i've found this guide, it explain really good how to use tactics, thanks.

Solid vid! Will def use it as a ref

Wow this guide is amazing, thank you for the video! It helped a lot 😁

I'll share a couple more builds of the characters you mentioned in the vid: Travis: role: evasion tank, utility (plunder) wpn: runic sword (baroque sword vs. gryphons/thieves) acc 1: silken scarf acc 2: lucky coin gambits: 1. magic attack- armored 2. passive steal- most PP 3. evade team needs: anti-evasion, someone who has higher initiative than him that can remove armor tanks so passive steal gets used more than magick attack. Notes: if you can have an anti-armor unit go ahead of him, no need for runic sword and you can use baroque sword instead to deal with anti-evasion tanks. Auch: role: blaster, anti-armor, leader wpn: the fireburdt staff acc 1- silk hood acc 2: sorcerer's medallion gambits: 1. fireball- prioritize armored, most AP 2. fireburst- burning 3. fireburst- lowest hp team needs: tank, anti-evasion

First Aid should be "lowest percentage" imo. If you have it on "lowest HP" then it will target whoever has the lowest. This can potentially mean that it can target a full health person if their health pool is small enough. I'm not 100% sure if I'm even correct though.

Good discussion. Do you find multiple lines more useful than using conditon 2? Personally on my rolf i do: 1- flame shot- highest evasion, prioritize front row on your travis for example, i dont see the need for your 3rd passive steal- highest initiative line. I think you could set your 2nd line to passive steal- highest initative, most pp. In terms of builds, i'll share my rolf: wpn: flame bow acc: lapis pendant acc: pursuit ring gambits: flame shot- highest evasion, prioritze front row eagle eye pursuit team member needs: anti-armor, rolf should be 1st or 2nd in initiative at worst, tank role-anti-evasion tank, leader Notes: if 2+ team members have higher initiative than rolf, replace lapis pendant and pursuit ring with dove plume and warriors pendant/brown beret.

This is very helpful. I kind of got the gist of it but this really clarify things up. I wasn’t sure how the second condition works so I always left those blank.

Thank you so very much. You explained the tactics system perfectly for me to understand it now. I felt prettu dumb before but now I can kick some 🍑. 🙏 🤲 ❤

So i have multiple character that have passive skill with condition "Activate at the start of battle" but it only activate 1 skill, is it not stackable or perhaps it can only activate 1 per combat ?

Didn’t know this was a thing. 4 hours into the game and you just blew my mind lol.

Ok so I was initially confused on how this type of combat works. So im not actually controlling anything in real time during battle? Everything plays out based on what I set for tactics, and I just sit back and watch? The only thing I can do is fast forward the action so battles end quicker?

Do you end up changing these often between battles?

dev will get it

I am still waiting until I encounter the ingame introduction to maintain a sort of natural game flow.

Is there a feature that emulates presets for ur play style using each character?
