Team: Tennant (R10 + Elucidation / P5), Necrologist (R10 / P5), Pavia (Maxed Out + Elucidation), Diggers (Insight 3), Bunny Bunny (Insight 2), Mondicht (Maxed Out + Elucidation), Yenisei (R10 / P4), Desert Flannel (R10 / P3)

My (unironically) favorite R1999 side-mode is back~

For this patch, Cognitive Dissonance seems to be balanced for HP loss characters and also characters with shields. There are some pretty obvious candidates here (Semmelweis, Euphoria Eternity, Euphoria NewBabel). Euphoria Medicine Pocket specifically hits both gameplay types here, sadly you do not get an assist MP for this stage.

Besides the usual suspects (Bunny Bunny, Pavia, Mondlicht and Tennant, four characters I use a lot in Phototaxis), I ended up bringing in Diggers and Yenisei to fit the shield theme. "Diggers has no shied cards" yes but he does have a passive that gives a free multi-turn shield whenever he's swapped in, and he adds a bit of extra utility with his debuffs and Nightmare Ult.

As for this specific stage, it's not too bad, but it has a pretty annoying gimmick. If you don't land a crit on an enemy, you lose Moxie. It's manageable if you use the "increased Crit rate and damage with shield up" and the "gain Lucky/crit boosts when attacking with HP over 50%".
