I cleared it with Gladiator Vincent, Samurai Miu, Grand Ranger Cybella, Inquisitor Luthor and Mind Warder Zedd.

The biggest problem is Luthor(boss) who has such a ridiculous status that can one shot your entire backline. Basically, I cycle between stun, blind and sleep. If he manage to resist status aliment, use DEF item and use defend on backline (even that they almost die).
Don't worry about his skill, it only heal 2700 per turn so you can easily outdamaged his heal.


I have to say that it barely worth a reward and 2nd trial is not let anyone die which is next to impossible.

I used this setups for 30++ :
HD Faye, Samurai Miu, Berserker Vincent, GR Kane, and GS Kane.

I put my Faye far on the back, separated from the others, because pillars' ranged AI have tendencies to target tank first (I forgot if 30 have Mystics or Rangers, maybe both), and avoid those Mystics to land AoE Crits and kills my squad. I'm still using this setup for PoU 30 and up. Managed to get to 34, and will try 35+ after they are unlocked for my guild.

I made sure that both my CCs survive, using Faye's shield. If possible, I made sure not to let anyone die. Those squads are enough to clear 30s without another Miu.

Since my Berserker is a Hera, he can land Crits easily (30% CRIT chance, can get to 35% or even 40% if I change his runes and equipment).

Anyway, other than my setup, there are also various things you can try. Experiment with your squad and come out with the best/interesting things you can do. >.<

He is talking about the luthor on Tower of Exile(solo), which has like double the status on the Tower of Unity.

In comparison I cleared the 30th floor on Tower of Unity with no problem and without any units dying. BUT the chuck norris luthor on tower of exile is just insanely hard he can 1 shot my tank with a crit.

Not for the faint hearted. Well it also means I can sit back relax and farm the 5 energy rounds.

Yep, PoE's Luthor is definitely a terminator. When I fought him, I just treat him the same as another Legendary story bosses. I still have both of my CCs survive and relied on RNG to land CCs without being resisted. Once it is resisted, I'm done for. Same case as Miu's Blind. Then just burst him with Berserker and Miu. I cleared PoE floor 30 for about 55 rounds.

Now that I cleared it, though the rewards are tempting, I nope my way out of it. Even I desperatedly keeping at least one CC alive, with Faye as sacrifice. No Unit Dies? Nope.
