CitizenDawn04How to Defeat Citizen Dawn: Dawn’s biggest asset is her army of citizens. Global damage works best against these pesky ne’er-do-wells, but if she has “Citizen Truth” in play, you have to get rid of him or else he provides a shield for every other villain target, including Citizen Dawn.

Tempest works best for global damage. If you have him on your team, you can have Tempest knock out the weeny citizens, while other players concentrate on Dawn herself. If you don’t have Tempest on your team, you’ll have to spread responsibilities between citizen damage and damaging Dawn with each hero.
