General Attacking (Attack)

Generals (Attack)
(All generals' level 4 stats used)

It is mostly recommended to equip army limit generals for invasions. Mephistopheles will increase your invasion score by about 8% while Chase, Crom and Artanis will give you a boost of about 4%. However, they only work if you have a complement of 541+/521+ army members (depending on the general). If not, their ability would become useless and it would be better to equip another general who enhances your attack stat. Savannah is an alternative if you don't have at least a 501 army. She does not provide any increase if your army is already at 501.

Soldiers Attacking (Attack)

 * Whether it is worth combining Hydra Heads depends on what soldiers you can purchase.


 * Forming Volcanic Knights or Blood Zealots is not recommended unless you have calculated that the gain in stats from them overcomes the loss of the combined stats of those items used to create them.
 * Spartan Phalanx takes a while to get but serpents, especially Amethysts and Ancient Reds, have a good rate of dropping FP that it maybe worth your while to pursue them.
 * Pursuing Alpha Bahamut for the Alpha Serpents is generally not recommended unless you can get into the Legendary threshold within the time limit with no problems.

Weapons

 * Exsanguinator. You can get this one from a regular, wimpy Vincent at a relatively low damage-to-loot ratio.
 * Genesis Sword. Among the other monsters who drops decent weapons, Genesis is the easiest.

Equipment

 * Deathshield. Farm Skaar for this, it drops easily and requires less stamina commitment than other monsters.

Magic

 * Frost Bolt. Farm Ragnarok for this, it's a bit rare but like Skaar, the stamina commitment is less than others.
 * Swarm of Darkness. Like Exanguinator, you can get this one from the weak Vincent relatively cheap.
 * Pestilence. This magic from Skaar is also good, since you are farming for his shield anyway.
