You can assemble up to three squads. All three squads will be present in your battles.

Each Squad consists of 6 units with no deploy cost limit. Squad One is sent to assist teammates and allies in their battles. The formation of Squad One that is sent to teammates and allies is set when you join a team. Any changes you make to your first squad after joining a team will not be applied to your teammates or allies.

The ATK, HP, Wait Time, Type, and Skill of your Squads are determined by the units you include.

For example, if you use units with fast speeds, the wait time after attacking becomes shorter.

Squad Type(Melee, Missile, or Magic) is the type there are the most units of in the squad.

• If there is a tie, then your leader unit's attack type determines the Squad Type.

Using Attack Type Matchups to your advantage is vital to success in the Fanta Tactics event.

Find information on Squad Skills in the Squad Skills section.

Teams consist of 3 members. Once 3 members have assembled, the battles will automatically begin.

Press the Form Team button on the event page to join or create a team.

• Whether you create a new team or join a team looking for members is determined when you press the button.

Team formation takes up to 60 seconds. Battle begins automatically if 3 players are found. If after 30 seconds 3 players are not found, the player at the top of the team list can press the Form Team button and 2 options will appear - FORM and WAIT. If FORM is chosen, NPCs are added to any open slots and battle will begin. If WAIT is chosen, an additional 30 seconds is given to wait for players to join. After the 30 seconds pass, NPCs are added to any open slots and battle will begin.

Teams are automatically disbanded after 10 battles.

• Failed battles are included in the battle count.
• Continuing a battle does not count as an extra battle.

The Form Team button will only be available once you form your First Squad. NPCs are picked randomly. Names are NPC-A through NPC-Z and NPC-AA through NPC-AN. ATK power of NPC squads is determined by your squads and teammate's squads.

In the Fanta Tactics: Heavens Reach event, you battle with your three Squads, the First Squads of your 2 teammates, and the First Squad of an ally if available.

Fighting battles uses CP. One CP is restored every 10 minutes.

CP can be restored instantly by using Time Elixirs or Ethereal Plasma. ・Each Time Elixir restores 1 CP. ・Each Ethereal Plasma restores all CP.

• There is a limit to the number of Time Elixirs you can use.
  • Limit resets each day at 4:00 AM, 8:00 AM, 12:00 PM, 4:00 PM, 8:00 PM, and 12:00 AM PST/PDT.
• The MAX CP is 6. Using an item to restore CP will not bring your CP over 6.

There are 2 types of battles: Normal Battles and Boss Battles. In both, victory is yours when all enemy monsters are defeated. A victory earns you BT Pts, an Overkill Bonus, Imperial Shields, and EXP for the units you used.

Failed battles also give (much smaller) bonuses if at least one enemy monster was defeated.

Battles can be continued by using Potions or Ethereal Plasma which heal all the HP of your squads.

• There is a limit to the number of Potions you can use.
  • Limit resets each day at 4:00 AM, 8:00 AM, 12:00 PM, 4:00 PM, 8:00 PM, and 12:00 AM PST/PDT.

Boss battles can be challenged again using CP, even if you choose not to continue with Potions or Plasma. Defeated monsters will NOT reappear and Boss HP will NOT be restored.

The combat flow in battles is shown in the picture below. File:FantaTacticsModes.jpg

Targetting is not necessary to attack monsters. 

• • AUTO MODE**

Auto Mode can be switched on and off during battles. In a Auto Mode, attacking monsters is automatically done. You can still target specific monsters manually.

• Combo attacks may be set off if your squads have no wait time, but not always.
• If a Squad Skill is available, it will be used immediately.
• Auto Mode may not always be the most strategic choice.

During battles in the Fanta Tactics, there are good and bad attack type matches.

・Good Matchups In a good matchup, your unit will do 1.5X its normal damage against the enemy unit. Ex.) Magic units(staff icon) do 1.5 x damage to Melee units(sword icon).

・Bad Matchups In a bad matchup, your unit will do 0.5X its normal damage against the enemy unit. Ex.) Magic units(staff icon) do 0.5 x damage to Missile units(bow icon).

• Against a unit of the same type, your unit will deal normal damage.
• Enemy unit damage is also affected by attack type matchups.

In Fanta Tactics, special Combo Attacks can be used.

You can use Combo Attacks by tapping ready(no wait time) units in a row. Combos reach a MAX of 6 attacks. The higher the combo, the greater the damage to enemies. Combo attacks will continue to hit the same enemy even if its HP is reduced to zero.

• Active Squad Skills cannot be used in Combo Attacks.
• Passive Squad Skills may sometimes be used in Combo Attacks.
• Multiple attack skills used in combos are counted as one attack.
