Note: Tiphera's performance significantly improves if her card has Draw 1 Divine Epiphany.

Tiphera's best build focuses on generating Archetype: ○ and exhausting cards to help Kayron scale much faster while providing him enough AP to use his expensive cards. This will ensure that if you can use all your cards then you can at least exhaust up to 9 Futility per turn and still have the AP to use his Black Hole.

For her Memory Fragments, our setup works best with a 4/2 set using Glory's Reign to provide a 15% multiplicative damage buff to the party after generating or exhausting skill cards for and Tetra's Authority for more healing and shield she provides for the team alongside increasing the damage of her defense-based attack cards.

Her favored chaos zone is Burning Life to get her best equipment such as Tentacles of Chaos for an 8% additional attack stat to all her allies but can only be obtained after defeating Senectus. Vine Lord's Mask to get 80% fixed shield up to 2 times when drawing exhaust cards and Shining World Tree Stem to increase her healing output on all her cards by 25% multiplicatively.

Main DPS Support
Kayron Kayron Veronica Veronica

Tiphera's best team is Kayron and Veronica. Tiphera helps exhaust Futility for Kayron so he can scale much faster while providing AP for him with Archetype: ○. Veronica will help draw cards for the team as both of them lack it especially if they don't have a divine epiphany.

List of All Characters

Alternative Team Members

Character Explanation
Orlea Orlea Orlea can replace Veronica as a Support. She offers a consistent amount of multiplicative buffs for Kayron but she lacks card draw and hand space due to the amount of retain cards she creates.
Nine Nine Nine can replace Kayron as the Main DPS. She can deliver the same high single-target damage with her Hew and can synergize well with Tiphera's cards depending on if she needs more AP, more damage or exhaust support. However, unlike Kayron, her damage will not scale and after a few turns Kayron will start doing more than her.
Beryl Beryl Bery can replace Veronica as a Support. She can draw cards with Guilty Pleasure and can synergize well with Contaminated Spore which helps Kayron deal more damage.
Nia Nia Nia can replace Veronica as a Support. Her main goal in this party is to draw cards from a specific character and discard to help give space in your hand. However, she cannot buff Kayron's damage aside from her manifest ego and her most powerful build, Eternal Hunger, cannot be used for Season 2 content.
Cassius Cassius Cassius can replace Veronica as a Support. He can provide card draw with his quest cards and help ease your hand with discards. He can also heal and give additive damage buffs through Morale however he is incapable of AP recovery and multiplicative damage buffs.

Tiphera can easily generate her creation cards through Quantum Seed but is inconsistent. To lessen it, she can choose epiphanies for it especially the second epiphany so that you have the ability to select any of the three cards and create two copies, one in your hand and another in your draw pile.

Next is Form Covergence, this card helps her draw her created archetype cards but for this build, the best epiphany is the one that exhaust cards and draw that many based on how many you exhausted which is perfect for this build.

As for Dual Creation, the best epiphany for it is the upgraded version that only adds the Initiation tag. This will help Tiphera guarantee to create 1 more Archetype: ○ in the discard pile whenever she uses Quantum Seed and will also help activate it much earlier.

Lastly, it is best to remove Creation and Destruction rather than keeping it as she is best used in this build for support. You can replace it with Ebony Lumen for more card draw and another card you can select to exhaust.

Kayron needs specifics number of cards so that Tiphera can make use of it perfectly. For that, you need the epiphany for Echo of Futility that reduces its costs to 0 AP but can still scale and generate two futility and make sure you have 3 copies of this card. Next is Brand of Annihilation, either the epiphany that has a 7 AP original cost or the 1 AP version that scales on how many cards you exhausted for that turn.

For Black Hole, he needs to have the epiphany that increases its base damage based on how many Futility you exhausted alongside having two copies. This is your main source of high damage. Lastly, Oath of Vanity must be the epiphany that provides the highest amount of damage and healing for your Futility for more survivability options. You can also remove it if you are confident with Tiphera's healing output.

As for Veronica, all you really need on her is the 0 AP Repose to draw 2 cards from other combatants and a draw 2 epiphany for Sir Kowalski but not the epiphany that also creates a ballista after drawing a skill card to make sure that you do not clog your hand.

Archetype: ○ Form Convergence Combo

Tiphera has the ability to generate archetype cards she can use to recover AP and exhaust cards from other combatants. With this build, she can gather up to 6 AP with Archetype: ○ and exhaust up to 9 cards when using Form Convergence which is great for Kayron. Here are the steps on how to execute this combo:

  1. Use all the upgrade cards from Tiphera, Kayron and Veronica.
  2. Draw cards using Repose or Sir Kowalski to get all the cards needed from Tiphera and Kayron.
  3. Start by playing either two Echo of Futility or Echoes of True Abyss to create Futility.
  4. Once you have three or more Futility, use Quantum Seed to start creating Archetype: ○ in both your draw pile and discard pile.
  5. Play your Form Convergence to exhaust only Futility and draw your exhaust cards.
  6. Once you are out of Form Convergence, start using Black Hole to deal high single-target damage and use Archetype: ○ to restore some AP if you need it.
  7. Repeat to continue increasing the damage of your Echo of Futility and Black Hole.
