in my case, lv 80+ swords can still get sweep up by the naginata 3 card. so try with swords with lv 90+. use Oodachi as a leader and equip him with elite and shieldman, Hotarumaru is a good choice because he has three troops slot. use the fastest uchigatana like Hasebe and Nakigitsune, Yaman is quite fast too. equip them with 1 long ranged troops and 1 light cavalry and use the fastest horse. sometimes some of them are able to outrun Yari and Tachi card 2. and if you're lucky, the long ranged troops can sometimes kill the red or purple yari. as the anon above said, you have to choice the swords with highest HP and leadership.

if your half team got beaten up and far from boss node i recommend you should retreat. but if your leader is oodachi and your half team beaten up but near to boss node, it's okay to go since the oodachi can kill the two enemies and even you got rank B, you still got all your beads

i understand the struggle into spiritual level because i have experience in map four without kiwame. i hope this long suggestion helps you and good luck!
