Preparing for the quick meta

I heard you need higher NP level for Dantes beside double Skadi in order for the quick meta to work. If so, can I compensate it if I grail Dantes to level 100 even though his only NP1?

From what I've heard, you need at least NP3 so that you can end a stage (obviously depends on which one) in 3 turns. But at NP1 it shouldn't take more than 4-6 turns to do the same thing, so it doesn't really make that much of a difference. Grailing shouldn't cause much of an impact either, since all it does is give him an additional 1000~ HP/ATK that you most likely won't even notice. With the right CEs and support from Skadi, He'll definitely shine even at NP1, so do make sure to level his skills and your best CEs so that you're prepared for when she arrives. It's also important to mention that he'll get an NP upgrade in the future too, which will make him even more viable at NP1.

The video I watched said that NP3 was the minimum, but more comfortably NP4. The point, apparently, is that the meta depends heavily on Dantes being able to charge his NP using the overkill mechanic during his NP.

Here's a URL that discusses the "double-Skadi looping NP" mechanic and what's needed to pull it off:

There are also comments on that video saying the calculations are wrong, and that Lv100 Dantes or NP2 Dantes is enough.

You might be able to 3 turn farm using plugsuit, bringing in a waver but that would require you to have dantes,waver & Skadi so you either have to be a big whale or lucky F2P
