Princess Connect! Re:Dive Story Event: Starlight Princess Re:M@STER!

Welcome back to another edition of our Princess Connect! Re: Dive story event guides! You're in for a treat with another cross-over event featuring characters from THE iDOLM@STER Cinderella Girls Starlight Stage. This event will also feature two parts with part 2 starting on 2/13/2023. Watch as Mio, Uzuki, and Rin take over the stage in Landosol! We'll also be trying out a abbreviated format for this guide. If you need additional details, please see our previous guide here.

Uzuki (IM@S CG) Focus Gacha

Uzuki (IM@S CG) is the first limited gacha banner for this cross-over event. She's a solid unit and might be worth a pull if you're really into iDOLM@STER Cinderella Girls. You might want to consider saving your jewels for other banners though.

Rin (IM@S CG) Focus Gacha

Rin (IM@S CG) is the second limited gacha banner that runs during the cross-over event. She is arguably the stronger character of the two and will see use in arena and future events. Just be sure you'll have enough jewels for other characters you may want to roll.

Hard Lvl. 50	500,000	Deals large magical damage to all enemies and knocks them back. Decreases physical and magical defense.	Deal physical damage to enemies in range and knocks them back.	Summons a wood thing that can't be targeted. The summon will explode and deal magic damage to all enemies in range of it.
Very Hard Lvl. 90	1,400,000	Deals large magical damage to all enemies and knocks them back. Decreases physical and magical defense.	Deal physical damage to enemies in range and knocks them back.	Summons a wood thing that can't be targeted. The summon will explode and deal magic damage to all enemies in range of it.
Special Lvl. 90	2,100,000	Deals large magical damage to all enemies and knocks them back. Decreases physical and magical defense.	Deal physical damage to enemies in range and knocks them back.	Summons a wood thing that can't be targeted. The summon will explode and deal magic damage to all enemies in range of it.

This boss is a multi-target boss so dealing damage to its parts will reduce the defensive stats of the boss. None of the skills are too scary or hard to deal with.

Suggested Teams

Hard Boss

Yui	Shiori	Kokkoro	Kaori	Miyako

This is about a F2P composition that gets used a lot. Miyako will be able to tank the frontal damage while Kaori and Shiori should provide enough damage to kill the boss. Other options are more backline damage dealers but just be aware they might get turned into reindeer.

Very Hard Boss

The Very Hard boss adds a second skill where the boss summons an enemy that cannot be attacked or targeted. When it explodes, it deals magic damage to enemies in range.

Christina	Makoto (w/ UE)	Muimi	Nozomi (w/ UE)	Jun (w/ UE)

This is a pretty common team to use against most bosses with some knock back and front damage. Jun and Nozomi will keep your team alive while Muimi, Makoto, and Christina will make short work of the boss.

Yui (6★)	Rei (6★)	Hiyori (6★)	NY Kokkoro	Princess Pecorine

Remember when we said 6★ characters are very strong, especially Twinkle Wish? Yeah, this is where they shine. Against bosses and events, they really make short work of them. Obviously, not everyone can build this team but you can show how lucky you've been in farming and rolling gacha. :P

Kyoka (w/ UE)	Karyl (6★) (w/ UE)	Neneka	Akari (w/ UE)	Kuka (w/ UE)

A magic team will also work here against the boss. Akari and Kuka should be enough front line to help your back line mages to do enough damage to kill the boss.

Special Mode

Once you clear the Very Hard boss, you will unlock the Special difficulty. This difficulty is geared toward end-game players and is very difficult. It will likely take 3+ teams to properly clear. It is broken into 3 sections/modes.

Mode 1

Difficulty	HP	Union Burst	Skill 1	Skill 2
Special Lvl. 90	21,000,000-15,700,001	Deals large magical damage to all enemies and knocks them back. Decreases physical and magical defense.	Generates a field that deals magical damage to all enemies and raises their TP.

Mode 1 is pretty straightforward, the boss basically only uses their regular attack and their UB. They also generate a field that deals magic damage to all of your units but also gives you TP. This is a great place to use characters with good UBs. You'll also need a healer here.

Mode 2

Difficulty	HP	Union Burst	Skill 1	Skill 2
Special Lvl. 90	15,700,000 - 4,200,001	Deals large magical damage to all enemies and knocks them back. Decreases physical and magical defense.	Deal physical damage to enemies in range and knocks them back.	Summons a wood thing that can't be targeted. The summon will explode and deal magic damage to all enemies in range of it.

Essentially the same as the Very Hard boss except the boss is always 3 targets and they cannot be broken. Just take this opportunity to deal AOE damage to the boss to get rid of its high health pool.

Mode 3

Difficulty	HP	Union Burst	Skill 1	Skill 2
Special Lvl. 90	4,200,000	Deals large magical damage to all enemies and knocks them back. Decreases physical and magical defense.	Deal physical damage to enemies in range and knocks them back.	Summons a wood thing that can't be targeted. The summon will explode and deal magic damage to all enemies in range of it.

Just an imensively tanky version of the Very Hard boss. Realistically, this part is just a damage sponge and might take more than one team to clear just due to the high health pool once again.

Suggested Teams

Mode 1:

Yukari (6★)	Christina	Rei (6★)	Makoto (w/ UE)	Muimi

This is probably by far the easiest team to use. Yukari (6★) alone provides even survivability with the free TP gained from the boss' skill. Muimi will always have her UB active as well.

Yukari (6★)	Christina	Rei (6★)	Hiyori (6★)	Makoto (w/ UE)

If you don't have Muimi or just have Hiyori (6★) prepared, this is the team for you. This is slightly easier to farm and doesn't require Muimi.

Maho (6★)	Karyl (Summer) (w/ UE)	Yui (New Year) (w/ UE)	Karyl (New Year)	Neneka

Want to prepare for some clan battle fun? Why not throw in some New Years Bursts and call it a day?

Luna	Kasumi (w/ UE)	Karyl (New Year)	Neneka	Yukari (6★)

Want to try yet another clan battle-esque team? Well, look no further. Luna + Karyl (New Year), what could possibly go wrong?

Mode 2:

Kokkoro (6★)	Christina	Hiyori (6★)	Makoto (w/ UE)	Muimi

This is about as good of a physical team as you're going to be able to build. Kokkoro will keep the team alive while increasing their action speed. Since the boss is multi-target, we're using Hiyori and Muimi here. Since the boss cannot have their parts broken, we want to push as much damage as we can here while using debuffs.

Kyoka (Halloween)	Karyl (Summer) (w/ UE)	Yui (New Year) (w/ UE)	Karyl (New Year)	Saren (w/ UE)

A magic team that just pushes more damage and uses Saren to charge Karyl (New Year) for high damage hits.

Luna	Karyl (New Year)	Neneka	Anna (w/ UE)	Yukari (6★)

At this point, most magic teams look similar to clan battle magic teams. Just watch New Years bursts go off.

Mode 3:

Yukari (6★)	Christina	Rei (6★)	Makoto (w/ UE)	Muimi

We can go back to using this tried and true team to finish off what is less of the boss.

Kokkoro (6★)	Christina	Makoto (w/ UE)	Muimi	Jun (w/ UE)

Another strong physical team that can be used with a bit more tanking as it has Jun up front. Use this team if your team is dying.

Kyoka (Halloween)	Maho (6★)	Yui (New Year) (w/ UE)	Kasumi (w/ UE)	Karyl (New Year)

Last but not least, we have a strong magic team you can use to easily clean up the boss. Who knew that Karyl (New Year) was a strong character?

Starlight Princess Re:M@STER! Story Event Part 1

This is the twenty-fourth story event in the EN/WW server. Events generally give a generous amount of items, mana, jewels, and character memory shards. The memory shards featured in this event are for Chika and Mio (IM@S CG). On top of the rewards, it also adds event story chapters which can be viewed as you complete the event stages.

Difficulty	HP	Union Burst	Skill 1	Skill 2
Normal Lvl. 25	42,000	Deals large physical damage to all enemies and knocks them back. Reduces own physical and magical defense.	Deal physical damage to an area around the front character and reduce their action speed.
Hard Lvl. 50	300,000	Deals large physical damage to all enemies and knocks them back. Reduces own physical and magical defense.	Deal physical damage to an area around the front character and reduce their action speed.	Deal small physical damage to the front 3 characters and reduce their physical defense.
Very Hard Lvl. 90	850,000	Deals large physical damage to all enemies and knocks them back. Reduces own physical and magical defense.	Deal physical damage to an area around the front character and reduce their action speed.	Deal small physical damage to the front 3 characters and reduce their physical defense.
Special Lvl. 90	2,200,000	Deals large physical damage to all enemies and knocks them back. Reduces own physical and magical defense.	Deal physical damage to an area around the front character and reduce their action speed.	Deal small physical damage to the front 3 characters and reduce their physical defense.

Imagine not having to deal with RNG for once. You'll just need to be careful about unit placement since the front area is kind of a no-go.

Suggested Teams

Hard Boss

Yui	Shiori	Kokkoro	Kaori	Miyako

This is about a F2P composition that gets used a lot. Miyako will be able to tank the frontal damage while Kaori and Shiori should provide enough damage to kill the boss. Other options are more backline damage dealers.

Very Hard Boss

The Very Hard boss adds another skill which further reduces your physical defense. If you use the right units, this shouldn't be too big of a deal.

Yui (New Year) (w/ UE)	Christina	Djeeta (w/ UE)	Makoto (w/ UE)	Jun (w/ UE)

We're back to our standard team. Having Jun up front and Yui (New Year) as a healer will help protect your team. Makoto, Djeeta, and Christina will deal enough damage to take down the boss.

Shiori (w/ UE)	Rino (6★) (w/ UE)	Arisa (w/ UE)	Kokkoro (6★) (w/ UE)	Jun (w/ UE)

If you want to not have to deal with all the front based damage and debuffs, you can use a strong archer team here. Just slot in 3 archers with Kokkoro and Jun.

Karyl (Summer) (w/ UE)	Kasumi (w/ UE)	Neneka	Kokkoro (6★) (w/ UE)	Lima (6★) (w/ UE)

A magic team will also work well here. This team will basically help disable the boss while Karyl (Summer) and Neneka make short work of the boss.

Special Mode

Once you clear the Very Hard boss, you will unlock the Special difficulty. This difficulty is geared toward end-game players and is very difficult. It will likely take 3+ teams to properly clear. It is broken into 3 sections/modes.

Mode 1

Shadow Rin (IM@S CG) (Lvl. 90) 670,000 HP	Shadow Uzuki (IM@S CG) (Lvl. 90) 870,000 HP	Shadow Mio (IM@S CG) (Lvl. 90) 600,000 HP	Boss (Lvl. 90) 2,200,000 HP

Mode 1 is dealing with the Shadow units from the IM@S CG collab. It's actually a fairly annoying combination of units, so having the right set of units is important.

Mode 2

Golem (Lvl. 90) 750,000 HP	Viper (Lvl. 90) 600,000 HP	Bird (Lvl. 90) 380,000 HP	Bird 2 (Lvl. 90) 140,000 HP	Boss (Lvl. 90) 2,200,000 HP

Mode 2 is just dealing with a bunch of mobs. Again, pretty easy to deal with here.

Mode 3

Difficulty	HP	Union Burst	Skill 1	Skill 2
Special Lvl. 90	2,200,000	Deals large physical damage to all enemies and knocks them back. Reduces own physical and magical defense.	Deal physical damage to an area around the front character and reduce their action speed.	Deal small physical damage to the front 3 characters and reduce their physical defense.

Mode 3 is just a souped up version of the Very Hard boss.

Suggested Teams

Mode 1:

Yukari (6★) (w/ UE)	Christina	Makoto (w/ UE)	Muimi	Jun (w/ UE)

We can use our standard physical team here with Yukari as the healer and support. Jun makes a very strong front line here.

Karyl (6★) (w/ UE)	Kasumi (w/ UE)	Neneka	Yukari (6★) (w/ UE)	Kuka (w/ UE)

A magic team is also appropriate here. This team will help you easily clear the Shadow units and move you to Mode 2.

Mode 2:

Karyl (6★) (w/ UE)	Yui (New Year) (w/ UE)	Kasumi (w/ UE)	Neneka	Yukari (6★) (w/ UE)

We're back with another magic team to help clear the mobs. The magic team will give you more overflow time moving into Mode 3.

Yukari (6★) (w/ UE)	Christina	Makoto (w/ UE)	Muimi	Jun (w/ UE)

You can still use the physical team from Mode 1 but it will take you more time and leave less time for you in Mode 3.

Mode 3:

Kyoka (w/ UE)	Yui (New Year) (w/ UE)	Kasumi (w/ UE)	Neneka	Yukari (6★) (w/ UE)

A magic team is the best way to clear out the boss in Mode 3. It just does more damage and accumulates faster this way. It also helps that most of your units are further in the back and less affected by the boss' debuffs.

Kyoka (w/ UE)	Maho (6★) (w/ UE)	Karyl (Summer) (w/ UE)	Kasumi (w/ UE)	Yukari (6★) (w/ UE)

You can also use a team that combines Maho and Karyl (Summer) instead of Neneka and Yui (New Year). Both of these should help clear the boss in a single hit.

Part 1 & Part 2 Rewards

We're finally onto the main point of each of these events: the rewards that come along with it. In addition to the first clear bonuses, there are also a set number of event treasure boxes. Think of it as a mini gacha machine but each one has a set number of items. To roll this treasure gacha box, you get pulls from defeating the event boss and completing daily missions. You do not need to clear out every single item in each box to move on to the next one. However, you will need to obtain the main items in the box. In this case, the main items are the memory shards for the characters. (You would want to collect these anyway.) The contents of each of the boxes are listed below. The endless box also contains shards for Mio (IM@S CG) so if you're down to farm waifu, there is no better way to do so.

Total Memory Shards

A breakdown of all the possible memory shards gained from missions, story, and the boxes are listed here:

Location	Chika	Mio (IM@S CG)
Story Reward	4	4
Normal Quests	2	2
Hard Quests	6	9
Treasure Box	50	65
Event Missions	N/A	26
Total	62	106

Note: This does not include memory shards from hard mission drops. These only include the ones you are guaranteed to get assuming you complete the tasks.

That brings us to the end of the Starlight Princess Re:M@STER! story event guide. Good luck to everyone pulling for for the IM@S CG characters!
