Decagrammaton: Chesed
Chesed is the second raid boss in Blue Archive
The boss consists of two stages: For the first stage, you will face waves of Heavy armor enemies until you reach the boss room where Chesed is located for the second stage of the bossfight where you have to clear all the robots to build the stun gauge and reveal the unprotected core with zero defense when the bar is maxed out. The core will stay revealed for a period of time and then it will protect itself again, forcing you to repeat the process if you want to have it reveal itself again. The boss has extreme defenses while protected so it's reccomended to focus on clearing the enemies instead to build gauge quickly.
A good general strategy for this raid boss is to focus on building one team meant to clear the waves of enemies and get to the boss while putting all your best bossing units on the second team if you aren't strong enough to kill it in one round with your best units. If you lack Penetration units then look at your Explosion damage dealers to fill some slots, they might do the trick for your clearing team and deliver that extra damage you were looking for but is strongly reccomended to leave your best penetration units for fighting the boss himself if you are using Explosion units to fill some slots.

| Reccomended Units and their evaluations | |
|---|---|
| Damage and Survivability | |
| File:Student Portrait Sumire.png | Her 3 cost EX will help you clear waves of enemies while also acting as the tank for the team you place her in. Gets a mood boost from the stage the event is in. You might find yourself wanting or needing her T4 bag for higher difficulties if you are having issues keeping her alive. |
| File:Student Portrait Tsurugi.png | More of a beefy bruiser rather than a tank. She really shines on this map because her 3 cost EX gives her big AOE attacks and she heals herself with enemies killed so she's great to clear waves and sustain herself with her own heals. You might find yourself wanting or needing her T4 bag for higher difficulties if you are having issues keeping her alive. |
| File:Student Portrait Hoshino.png | Absolutely needs her T4 bag to be usable. Hoshino has pretty low survivability before her bag but becomes a nice defense tank with it and her 4 cost EX can help you AOE enemies if you need it. She's more of a tank than a damage dealer, the AOE on her EX is just a bonus. |
| Tank | |
| File:Student Portrait Tsubaki.png | Full tank without any damage dealing EX but her 4-cost taunt will help you cancel enemy skills like the special ability of the big robot for example. If you take too long clearing a room see caution/warning signs around a big enemy robot then you can cancel the incoming skill by using Tsubaki's taunt while the warning signs are there and before the enemy uses their skill to cancel it or you might find yourself wiping. The smaller robots will instead opt to self-destruct and you can't cancel that with Tsubaki's taunt. You might find yourself wanting or needing her T4 bag for higher difficulties if you are having issues keeping her alive. |
| Damage | |
| File:Student Portrait Nonomi.png | She's free to take to 3-star and is one of the best units you can take for this mode. Her 5-cost AOE deals great damage and will help you clear entire waves of enemies with one press. If you need more firepower then consider taking her EX skill to level 3 for a big boost or consider getting her equipment. |
| File:Student Portrait Iori.png | Also one of the best units you can take for this mode if not the best. Her 3-cost skill hits 3 times, deals great single target damage and also comes with AOE. The best boss killer you can ask for on this raid so consider investing on her if you have her because she is one of the best penetration units. |
| File:Student Portrait Hifumi.png | Her 5-cost skill summons Peroro-sama that will deal damage to everyone in the area while taunting them. She is really useful in this mode both for being able to deal AOE damage, taunt enemies and take the heat off your other units. Absolutely worth considering if you have her. |
| File:Student Portrait Maki.png | Great penetration unit but she specializes in single target damage and this raid is all about AOE damage. Even then, you can still use her and achieve good results and is a good choice for your bossing team. |
| File:Student Portrait Neru.png | Neru's 2-cost EX has strong damage against a single unit for very cheap so she is also a good unit for this mode. Lacks AOE damage but will still give you results as a solid unit |
| File:Student Portrait Junko.png | A free to obtain character, she performs well in this mode as a unit with solid damage and a strong 5-cost skill that deals damage to everything in a line |
| File:Student Portrait Pina.png | Only really shines with her 3-star passive that gives her a damage boost if she remains in place without moving. Best used on your bossing team where she can remain in place but can also be used as 2-star if you don't want to raise her to 3-stars. |
| File:Student Portrait Hasumi.png | Starter penetration unit. Not your best choice but she is still worth considering if you lack penetration units because she can do her job. Her expensive 5-cost skill is only single target damage but can be used to take out some priority targets if you wish. |
| Supports | |
| File:Student Portrait Karin.png | Strong penetration dealer. Her 4-cost skill deals damage to a single target and the damage is increased if the target is big/large so it is best to save her skill for when Chesed reveals itself for big damage. |
| File:Student Portrait Serina.png | The best healer in the game for anything you want to do. Her 2-cost skill will summon a first-aid kit that will make the closest unit run to it to heal thesmelves. Only worth considering if you're taking too much damage and require a healer, otherwise go full damage. |
| File:Student Portrait Yoshimi.png | Deals Penetration damage and stuns enemies she hits with her EX. Very useful for this game mode because she does two things you want. |
| File:Student Portrait Kotama.png | Her 3-cost skill will buff the attack units in the circle and is cheap so you can use it to cycle to your other units skills while buffing them. |
