SD Gundam G Generation ETERNAL: Expert Eternal Road 23 Guide

To clear Expert Eternal Road 23 in SD Gundam G Generation ETERNAL, deploy two variants of Setsuna F. Seiei in the 00 Gundam and Gundam Exia. Your immediate goal is to eliminate priority support enemies during the first two turns using concentrated melee burst damage before enemy fire overwhelms your frontline.

Unit Roles and Setup

Running two Setsuna pilots allows your squad to combine the flexible engagement range of the 00 Gundam with the single-target elimination power of Gundam Exia. Both units benefit from Anno Domini (A.D.) synergy and defensive GN particle abilities to stay alive under heavy enemy assault.

Turn 1 Positioning Strategy

Expert Eternal Road 23 features high-health vanguards supported by long-range artillery. Rushing straight forward exposes your units to crossfire, while passive turtling allows the enemy to surround and wear down your team. Use these opening steps to dictate engagement range:

1. Advance the 00 Gundam to the frontline edge: Move 00 Gundam forward just enough to bait the nearest enemy cluster. This triggers defensive GN Field mitigation while drawing enemy attention away from squishier allies.
2. Angle Gundam Exia obliquely: Keep Exia off to the flank and avoid placing it directly adjacent to 00 Gundam. This prevents enemy area-of-effect (AoE) weapons from striking both units simultaneously.
3. Focus the primary support enabler: Identify the specific enemy unit that provides buffs or initiates support attacks. Concentrate all attacks on that target rather than spreading damage across the vanguard.
4. Hold counterattack capability: Ensure both units end their turn with attack readiness intact so they can retaliate during the enemy phase.

Attack Sequence and Cooldown Management

Conserve your high-tension special skills for shielded and elite commander units rather than wasting them on standard vanguard enemies. Execute your target elimination in this order:

1. Mid-Range Initiation: Attack first with the 00 Gundam to soften the target and strip defensive shields or buffs.
2. Melee Burst: Move Gundam Exia into close range and attack with its primary GN Sword strikes to finish off the weakened foe in a single turn.
3. Mop-up: Use basic beam rifles and blade attacks to clean up secondary targets while saving skill gauge energy for the next wave.

Defensive Positioning and Common Failure Points

Neither unit can survive prolonged, unfocused fire. Keep these operational constraints in mind throughout the encounter:

• Do not overextend Exia: Exia relies on short-range attacks. Pushing Exia deep into enemy lines without a guaranteed kill leaves it vulnerable to surrounding counterattacks.
• Utilize defensive terrain: Place your units on forest, crater, or structure tiles to gain passive evasion and defense boosts.
• Manage weapon dead zones: Track enemy attack ranges closely. If enemy fire begins to focus on Exia, shift Exia one tile behind 00 Gundam's zone of control to split enemy targeting.
• Keep your battleship nearby: Maintain moderate proximity to your carrier ship to receive passive stat auras and tactical recovery options if health runs low.
