None of this helps when fighting Hidan in the plot instance, especially not in "The Immortal" mission. He does a lot of damage in that one, plus he has those bodyguards that poison my team. I usually end up with a couple of my ninjas down. I've already been using Naruto on my team. I was originally using Naruto, Guy and Tenten. My main was in front, with Naruto behind him, and Tenten behind Naruto. I did forget to mention in my main post that my power is over 14000.

I don't usually do fights manually. Most of the time, the auto works fine on its own. I should also mention the Hidan I really have trouble with isn't the one that's required to complete the mission. It's the high difficulty one, to get 3 battle points.

As I already said, I don't have problems with the mission on auto for just completing it. It's just the high difficulty fights in these particular missions. The ones before them, I was able to get through without any trouble. And either way, I'm not exactly adept to know which talents to use, or what character to focus on in manual. And I've also noticed that "manual" is partly a laugh, because I tried using it in a Ninja Exam before, and outside of my main attacking who I select, the other ninjas just fought whoever anyway.

It would help if people actually told me where to place them in a lineup, by the way, instead of just listing off ninjas, like I should know where to place them..

Actually, I'm 2 battle points extra that I'm missing, since the mission afterwards I figured I'd be struggling with Hidan again doing the high difficulty one, so I skipped it. Also, I already checked threads for the Ninja Exam. People do talk about level 70's exam, but not for Crimson Fist.

And again, listing ninjas isn't helping me. I'm not going to know where to place them to make them effective. And just guessing where to place them "according to the enemy" isn't going to help either. It's a lot easier for me to see like a screenshot of how they're placed, and what talents to use, instead of just saying "use this type of talent", without telling me any names of said talent whatsoever.

The thing is, I've been able to get by fairly easily, at least with the plot instances, when I just used a lineup largely used for the Ninja Exam (one that was good for Exam 65-69) up until now. I figured that if I got a good lineup for exam 70, it might help me continue doing well in the plot instances, at the very least.

Also, when you bring up "figuring out lineups", you do know I can't really do this for Ranked Battle or Arena, right? You can't see someone's lineup in either one to figure out a good formation. And Arena doesn't let you see who you're fighting at all until the match starts. Ranked at least let's you choose your opponent. But both of them start fights immediately after you choose to fight. You can't customize your lineup for the fight at hand.
