Asphodelos: The Fourth Circle (Savage) - Part 1
PF uses Inumaru’s strat as a base, and:
- Swap in YPP’s strat for passing/resolving tethers and debuffs.
- Orb strats differ depending on the party.
- Japanese parties will use Inumaru’s strat, with cardinal Braindead orbs.
- English parties will use Inumaru’s strat, typically with Gumi’s orbs.
Things to check on Party Finder
- Check green orb spread positions (There are multiple orb strats)
English
I personally recommend “Braindead” orbs, although English parties often prefer Gumi orbs (below, in the hideaway) for legacy reasons.

YPP
“YPP” refers to how PF resolves passing tethers/debuffs for Director’s Belone + Inversive Chlamys.
- Tanks/Healers take the north side.
- DPS take the south side.
- First, pass debuffs.
- If you are passing debuffs stack on your side.
- If you are taking debuffs, spread on your side.
- Take debuffs in the order
Tank > Healer > D1 > D2 > D3 > D4.
- Then, pass tethers.
- If you are passing tethers, stack on your side.
