DRAGON BALL Z DOKKAN BATTLE: STR Super Baby 2 Build and Strategy Guide

To run Dokkan Festival STR Super Baby 2 effectively in DRAGON BALL Z DOKKAN BATTLE, keep him in slot two or slot three rather than slot one. Because he lacks immediate guard or unconditional damage reduction before he attacks, taking hits before launching his Super Attack can quickly end a run. Once he attacks, his defensive stat buffs trigger, allowing him to handle incoming normal attacks safely while building toward his invulnerable Giant Ape transformation.

Slot Placement and Battle Flow

Baby functions as an offensive rotation anchor and utility unit. Managing his positioning protects your team from early defensive liabilities while setting up his transformation window.

Slot Two (Attacking Turn): Place Baby behind a dedicated slot-one tank. Launching his Super Attack activates his defensive stat multipliers, stabilizing his durability for any subsequent attacks in the turn. His offensive and defensive ceilings rise further when fighting Pure Saiyans or Hybrid Saiyans targets.
Slot Three (Floating): Rotate Baby off turn if the incoming attack pattern concentrates heavy attacks before his action, or if your primary slot-one and slot-two pairings require link priority.
Giant Ape Activation: When team HP drops to Baby's transformation threshold, trigger his Great Ape form. This transformation grants temporary invulnerability, deals chip damage, and consumes boss attack charges and status cooldowns without putting your rotation at risk.
Post-Transformation Recovery: Capitalize on his built-in recovery mechanics and healing links to lift team health back above dangerous thresholds.

Hidden Potential and Skill Orb Build

Invest in Additional Attack first, followed by Dodge.

Primary Focus (Additional Attack): Because Baby's survivability relies directly on raising his defensive threshold through Super Attacks, landing multiple Super Attacks in a single turn provides the highest defensive and offensive value.
Secondary Focus (Dodge): Critical Hit holds lower priority because extra damage does not resolve his primary vulnerability. Allocating remaining points into Dodge grants a survival check when enemy attacks force him into unavoidable pre-Super hits.
Skill Orbs: Equip bronze and silver Skill Orbs that grant flat Defense and Additional Attack to increase his base defensive stat pool before his passive percentage buffs apply.

Best Event Niches and When to Bench

STR Super Baby 2 excels in specific high-difficulty team missions where defensive options are limited:

Artificial Lifeforms Missions: Supplies needed offensive output, Metamorphosis healing, and free invulnerability turns.
Target: Goku & Revenge Categories: Fully activates his category-specific advantages when facing Saiyan enemies.
GT Bosses Category Missions: Operates as a critical leader and anchor for a restrictive roster.

When to Bench: Replace STR Super Baby 2 if an event disables giant mechanics and dodging, locks character positions, or features bosses whose normal attacks exceed one million damage prior to his Super Attack. In those stages, run dedicated damage-reduction tanks instead.
