[Blue Archive] Final Restriction Raid Jan/Feb 2026 - Chokmah Special: Stage 49 Farmables + Ako Clear
We have now cycled back to Chokmah! Except this time, it is no longer Heavy Armor, we are now dealing with Special Chokmah instead. So, what's the difference? Well, the only differences are the HP amounts on each Stage, as well as the armor type. That's it. Everything else, from the raid mechanics to all other stats remains the same as Heavy Chokmah
Therefore, I will not waste time reintroducing you to all of Chokmah's mechanics again. If you want to know more, refer to this video: https://youtu.be/8lg_31oxqJQ
Now, we want to clear Stage 49 with just farmables and Ako. Is it possible? Yes. In fact, you won't even need a Saori Swimsuit borrow (even though she's a much better borrow for solo DPS). We will, once again, be ignoring the debuff damage mechanics of Chokmah and brute forcing with our lovely Shiroko Terror
The team is as follows:
- Akane. She's here for some optional Def Down, but her main role is to activate the Ballista with her EX
- Tsubaki. Our tank, which is needed to not die
- Kotama. Atk buffer with Atk Down Basic and Atk Sub
- Ako. Crit + CDmg buffer with Basic heals and CDmg Sub
- Mari. Flex slot, I just used her in case I need the HP shield. Also, she has Max HP Sub
- Serina. My bare minimum healer, she's barely even raised, but this is all I need for Stage 49
- 3 level 1 Strikers to charge initial cost and then die to missiles. I just grabbed my Izuna, Michiru and Tsurugi Swimsuit for that, any random low level student works
The general skill cycle is as follows: Kotama, Shiroko Terror, Ako, Akane. We do it in this order because there is an animation delay for Shiroko Terror's EX and Basic. By using Ako after Shiroko Terror, we maximize the buff uptime on actual attacks. Serina is occasionally used in-between attack cycles to keep Akane and Shiroko Terror healthy. Between occasional Serina EX usages, Serina's Basic and Ako's Basic, no one should really die in this team. If Akane is at risk of dying to triple missiles, you can always use Mari's shield to help her stay alive
There are a few keys to making this strategy work:
- Repeat the general cycle as many times as you can, while ensuring you have enough cost for groggy. Everytime you use Shiroko Terror's EX, her Basic activates, which does big damage, especially if the main hit crits
- Maximize damage during groggy
- Maximize damage in beginning of Phase 2
To maximize damage during groggy, we will want to fit in 3 Shiroko Terror Basics within 1 groggy session. To do this, you will need to use Shiroko Terror's EX immediately after using Akane's EX on the ballista tube. Then, quickly cycle back to Shiroko Terror, and use her EX again after the Basic hits Chokmah (you'll know, it loses a lot of HP when the Basic hits). Then, repeat the cycle one more time, you should get the last Basic in before groggy ends
The final piece of damage maximizing comes from the start of Phase 2. This is because Chokmah has a 100% Dmg Taken debuff in Phase 2 whenever the Reactor Gauge is below 70%. Since we do not have any debuff damage in this team, we have no way of lowering Chokmah's Reactor Gauge whatsoever. Therefore, the only window where we will have this Dmg Taken debuff is at the very beginning of Phase 2.
What this means is that you will want to run the general skill cycle immediately at the start of Phase 2. If done right, Shiroko Terror's Basic will hit Chokmah before the Reactor Gauge hits 70%. This will do a huge chunk of damage to Chokmah (1.5m damage in this sample clear). By doing this, you ensure that you will definitely kill Chokmah in time no matter what, as long as Shiroko Terror lives
If you have debuff damage and/or cover options, they will help immensely in this fight, but this is a sample clear where we bring neither of these core Chokmah utilities into the fight
