I decided to write a guide for Dragon Quest Walk as a way to improve my English.
※Since the proper nouns in the game are translated by AI, they may contain errors.
Elemental Weaknesses
Pre-transformation: Hyad (1.1x), Bagi (1.1x)
Post-transformation: Mera (1.1x), Zaba (1.1x)
Party Setup
Equipment
Arch Mage: God Eater Greatsword (Support)
High Priest: Paw Rod (Support)
Demon Swordsman: Chronos Sword (DPS)
Guardian: Divine Bird Wing Axe & Rune Buckler (Tank / Support)
Essential Souls(Hearts)
Arch Mage: Hibabango & Mikazuchi
Demon Swordsman: Hibabango & Madaraichou
Note: Hibabango protects against tension reduction.
Mikazuchi provides the skill "Zazanpa," which advances the enemy’s turn count by 2.
I use it to remove the enemy’s "Protective Shield" and "All-Elemental Resistance" buffs.
Madaraichou have the skill "Charge".
Speed Order
Arch Mage = High Priest > Demon Swordsman > Guardian > Hero of Loto (Carriage)
Notes
The Guardian should have the highest defense.
Orgodemir targets the ally with the highest defense and uses a knockback attack on Turn 1.
The Demon Swordsman should have the highest Ice-element attack power.
When reaching Super High Tension, their highest elemental stat is further boosted.

Demon Swordsman: Protective Shield → Time Reversal Blade

High Priest: Encore (on Demon Swordsman)
Demon Swordsman: Time Reversal Blade → Charge

High Priest: Encore (on Demon Swordsman)
Guardian: Ouen (on Demon Swordsman)
Demon Swordsman: Guaranteed Critical → Force Blast
Detailed Explanation
You don't need to read the following text.
I wrote it to practice writing in English.
Turn 1
Arch Mage: Zazanpa
Used to remove the enemy’s Protective Shield and elemental resistance buffs.
Time Reversal Blade cannot reduce the enemy’s level unless Protective Shield is removed first.
High Priest: Encore (on Demon Swordsman)
The Chronos Sword activates multiple buffs on the 6th action.
Therefore, the High Priest needs to use Encore to increase the Demon Swordsman’s number of actions.
Demon Swordsman: Protective Shield → Time Reversal Blade
Orgodemir uses debuffs on Turn 1.
Protective Shield prevents debuffs.
Time Reversal Blade reduces the enemy’s level.
Guardian: Mirror Shield
Orgodemir targets the ally with the highest defense using a knockback attack.
Mirror Shield reflects one spell back to the enemy.
Turn 2
Arch Mage: Hyadain
The Arch Mage is equipped with the God Eater Greatsword.
This weapon raises the user’s tension to maximum against ??? enemy types.
At maximum tension, the user can reliably activate Force Break and Echo.
As a result, Hyadain applies a 2-stage Ice-element Force Break in a single action.
High Priest: Encore (Demon Swordsman)
No special notes.
Dark Swordsman: Time Reversal Blade → Charge
About the question of whether Charge will last until the 6th action when used here:
The Chronos Sword extends buffs every 3 actions.
- 4th action: Charge
- 5th action: Guaranteed Critical (Charge icon remains active in a flashing state)
- 6th action: Buff extension activates → Force Blast
Guardian: Swaps the Demon Swordsman with the Hero of Loto. → Holy Rush
Orgodemir uses Disruptive Wave, which removes all allies' buffs.
To avoid losing buffs, swap out the Demon Swordsman.
Holy Rush reduces the enemy's tension.
Orgodemir: Disruptive Wave → Zam AoE Spell
This AoE Zam spell deals very high damage.
You should equip Zam resistance gear.
Turn 3
Arch Mage: Swap Hero with Demon Swordsman → Sap
Sap reduces the enemy's defense.
High Priest: Encore (on Demon Swordsman)
No special notes.
Guardian: Ouen (on Demon Swordsman)
Ouen increases an ally's skill damage by 80%.
Demon Swordsman: Guaranteed Critical → Force Blast
Guaranteed Critical ensures a critical hit.
The Chronos Sword activates multiple effects on the 6th action:
- Attack +3 stages
- Skill damage +2 stages
- Critical damage +2 stages
Force Blast increases all elemental damage by 125%.
