Chaos
Temuair Master-AB99
Chaos is not for the faint of heart… until later on, that is.
I have had many… accidents… in Chaos, and I've enjoyed every single one of them. Sgrios is well fed because of my reckless choices.
Bard Support
If you have a Bard with the Trinket Wake Scroll, Chaos becomes much easier to manage.
The added support can make a noticeable difference when things start getting out of hand.
Light Damage
Light damage works very well in Chaos.
If your character can take advantage of Light damage, bringing a Lumen Amulet and using Fas on the monsters can increase your clearing speed considerably.
Summoners
Summoners are also effective here.
Using Summons with Cradh provides a reliable way to clear monsters without relying on Light damage.
If you have high MP and a Lumen Amulet, MSPG can be an excellent way for a Summoner to clear floors quickly.
Archers
An Archer with Star Arrow can make short work of Chaos.
With enough damage, Star Arrow can keep floors surprisingly clean and works especially well against monsters vulnerable to Light.
Priest Support
Bringing a pure GM Priest with a 0-line Ard Staff is very helpful.
Keeping debuffs active makes the hunt faster and gives the rest of the party more room to focus on damage.
Just remember: Chaos rewards preparation, strong damage, and occasionally accepting that Sgrios was getting hungry anyway.
