Okay, this new challenge was less than stressful today as all the other one's had been. Maybe because I dropped 10 supports that I suddenly got a hold of some desirable supporters for the challenge. Anyway, this new challenge was a tad bit tricky since most of their arsenals were either huge crits or evasion each turn. Here's my team that I used:

2019 1st challenge quest:

v70 ParacelsusNPlv[5] [3/10/2] [No CE]

lv90 Summer Musashi NPlv[4] [6/6/7] [Jewel Bride MLB]

lv90 Nero Bride NPlv[1] [10/10/10] [Golden Carp Figure MLB]

lv80 GilCaster NPlv[5] [1/6/6] [Golden Carp Figure MLB]

lv90 Merlin NPlv[2] [10/10/10] [Scenic Beauty]

Support lv90 Tamamo no Mae NPlv[1] [10/10/10] [Tamamo's Fan Club]' -Courtesy to 口ツク for this support-

Mystic Code: Chaldea Combat Uniform lvl 10

Number of runs before completing: 4

Let me say, that the first turn for this battle REALLY MATTERED! The strategy was to use Paracelsus to buff Musashi Summer with his 2nd & 3rd skills so that she has easy NP gathering, then I switched Peracelsus out with Tamamo and further buffed her with Arts. Thankfully, Musashi had an B/A/A set ready, so I used those to take out Napoleon's Health gauge on the first turn. What's so tricky about this part is that I can't use any defense or evasion buffs since Napoleon will remove them from my team after his health gauge breaks. The other was that I needed my main DPS Musashi to retain her Guts status and not get herself killed on the first turn. Afterwards, I had considered myself lucky with Tamamo using her 1st skill to not only NP drain Fionne, but buff out Musashi's NP damage range. After further buffs, I went and used Musashi's NP on the 3rd turn and managed to gauge break both Nero & Fionne's health gauge. What really scared me the most was how Napoleon kept getting all these heavy crits on my team, killing off the support Tamamo.

Afterwards, I had enough NP gathered, plus utilized GilCaster's skills to increase the damage output for DPS AND used the 3rd skill for the Pierce buff on the 4th turn to unleash it again, taking out Napoleon and Fionne while they had evasive buffs on. Soon, I needed Musashi to survive long enough to gain more critical stars. The finale was when I had unleashed the NP while Nero Bride enemy was down on her last 100k HP. As people had said before, It's all about having a strong DPS, but also about making sure they have very good defense to last through the break gauges.
