Your Green Savior
Heal a hero from less than 5% health to full with a single card.
Key card: Galleo’s Overcharge + Miracle Worker. Try to lower one of your hero’s health to <5%, while building up 5+ SP, then use Overcharge to heal the hero while protecting him/her with Damage Shield from Copernica. Another method is letting the enemy kill one of your team member in one fight. Then do the above method in the second fight, since 1 health will definitely <5%.

Tips
- You can have less than 3 members in your team. Try Orik solo!
- You can run pass enemies if you keep staying away from them even they notice you.
- Some chapters have hidden rooms with treasure chests. The hidden room will not show up on map.
- You can check enemies stats both in battle and outside battle. Some enemies are immune to certain type of attacks (e.g. dragons), so be prepared for the fight.
- Check the vendor at each new chapter, sometimes the vendor will unlock the selling of new weapon, new accessory, and new rare materials.
