Kurokumo glazing. I recommend following the deployment order ishmael > heathcliff > ryoshu > rodion > gregor > hong lu to "maximize" the usage of some deployment-restricted
e.g.o gifts, for example Bloody Mist, Ashen Constellation Blessing, Sundered Memory for #1 (ishmael will have two skill slots, and she's the most important member of the team), meat tenderizer for #5, Awe for #1, #2, #3, etc

the plushie fusion is always great and you should definitely prioritize getting it,
either here or later on, but if you don't get the plushie tier III as clear reward,
avoid picking it at all now because you might genuinely not find it and brick the run.
Otherwise the magical girl gift is very useful with adversities later on, as well as the blessing

CORE pack for its gifts of course. Flexible floor if you don't have at least like 2000
cost to use in the shop to look for everything. Hardwood liquor cup is great to have but not necessary.

at this point ANYTHING is useful. I like to go into line 2 because of Bridle, which basically
nullifies the Adversity for max HP reduction, and the metronome is also cool, but not vital.
Line 1 is more damage.
unbound wrath is there only because of both the resonance tier IV, very useful on higher floors for early
clashing, and the new burn tier IV, since lust skills can maintain burn, and it's basically extra damage every turn but if you don't get it, it's totally fine, just a cool additon
anything else to your discretion. might be a pack with good rewards or an easier, faster pack to clear, or
the miracle in district 20 if you didnt get it earlier, or maybe the yield my flesh to claim their bones bokgak

usually i like to go with The Unchanging as last pack because i can hoard a lot
of cost with elite encounters/boss nodes, and spend a bit more cost in the shop
before the "double cost" adversity. Also it pretty much guarantees the Broken Glasses
e.g.o gift as clear reward and without brutality.

at this point, skill plays a fair role with this team. Constantly run a x4 lust resonance
in every turn for Ishmael's passive, and maybe a 7x on turn 2 for the entangled fate gift
activate. Pack choice is totally free, honestly i prefer to go with the suggested packs for
these reasons:

• Line 5 / floor 11: early line 5 means free tier IV's to fuse and a better chance to get a hidden boss
• Line 3 / floor 12: good for both the tier IV and tier II exclusive to the pack, free revival? yes sir!
• The master of la manchaland / floor 13: good tier IV from papa don for bleed in general
• A beautiful voice, Line 3 / floor 14: easier packs (IMO)
• Bridle of Infinity, Bloodtinged Ichthyic Odor: best and easiest packs for floor 15 (IMO)
