Stygian Onslaught Exalted Ones
The Exalted Ones are a batch of 16 characters that are chosen to receive buffs to their ATK, DEF, and HP while fighting in Stygian Onslaught. These characters refresh every day based on what other players use for completion on Dire difficulty.
Take note that these characters only buff the characters you already have and will not grant you free access to all 16 characters if you do not personally own them.
Co-Op Teams Are Built With 4 Players In Mind
Stygian Onslaught's fights are easier to manage if you challenge its Co-Op mode with 4 players. On that note, each Co-Op team is based on this idea and assumes that you are running the challenge in full Co-Op.
If you are looking for people to team up with, then try our Co-Op boards here below to find others who are willing to take on the Stygian Onslaught challenge together.

Requires Either Dendro or Freeze Reactions
The Iniquitous Baptist will consecutively generate elemental shields from Electro, Pyro to Hydro in that order.
Dendro reactions, especially Bloom, Hyperbloom, and Lunar-Bloom are ideal for this as they're compatible in shredding each of those shields. Alternatively, Freeze is also ideal for a similar reason.

Use Crowd Control Characters
The Iktomisaurus will summon Vortexes that are affected by crowd-control effects and will deal DMG to its shield when destroyed.
Other teams are possible as well, but this team is especially catered towards Anemo and Pyro Characters.
Use Jean and Amber to Cheese
You can cheese through this particular boss by using Jean in particular to abuse the Iktomisaurus' susceptibility to being lifted.

Made For Plunging Teams Teams
Experimental Field Generator will constantly unleash powerful attacks that cannot be dodged. Plunging centered teams are highly valuable in order to avoid these attacks and each Plunging Attack hit to the boss will lessen the power of said attacks.

When playing this stage in Co-Op, make sure that you have characters that can utilize Plunge Attacks. Claymore characters are also great as their multiplier for Plunging are much higher than other weapons.
Make use of Buffers and Supports to expedite the process of defeating the boss.

Stage 1 Enemy Information
| Stage 1 Opponent | Boss Notes | ||
|---|---|---|---|
 Iniquitous Baptist
|
• Generates Electro, Pyro, then Hydro shield in that order. • Will always attempt an AoE attack by summoning 4 elemental balls right after generating shields. |
||
| Special Boss Mechanics | |||
| • During battle, the foe will generate Electro, Pyro, and Hydro Rings on the field while charging up to unleash a devastating attack. You must trigger Elemental Reactions to destroy all the Elemental Rings in order to interrupt this attack. • During battle, the foe will sequentially deploy Electro, Pyro, and Hydro Wards to protect itself. These Wards can be broken by triggering Elemental Reactions. Breaking all three Wards will cause the foe to be temporarily paralyzed. |
|||
| Special Boss Mechanics (Fearless and Above) | |||
| • Affected by the Ley Line disturbance, the foe sequentially deploys stronger Electro, Pyro, and Hydro Wards to protect itself once the battle begins. These Wards can be broken by triggering Elemental Reactions. Each time a Ward is broken, the foe will take immense DMG based on the amount of DMG the Ward absorbed. Breaking all three Wards will cause the foe to be temporarily paralyzed. | |||

Stage 1 Strategy
Focus Down the Shields
When the fight starts, use the first few seconds to get your energy up, then execute your combos once the shields are up. If you are using any variation of a Bloom team, your main prerogative is to constantly maintain your rotations.
Otherwise, swap to your designated Cryo, Hydro, and Dendro units to take down each shield right away.
Recharge Energy By Third Shield
As the Iniquitous Baptist prepares its Hydro shield, use that time to regenerate your Elemental Bursts and execute midway through the shield's HP.
If timed properly, you will be at the apex of your damage rotation by the time you render the enemy vulnerable, allowing you to chunk down their HP significantly.
Stage 1 Co-Op Strategy
Bring Multiple Elemental Units
It is imperative that each of the designated elemental units on your team focus down the opponent when it is their turn, as coordinated shield clears are the key to reducing clear time.
Stygian Onslaught 6.2 Luna III Stage 2 Guide
Stage 2 Enemy Information
| Stage 2 Opponent | Boss Notes | ||
|---|---|---|---|
 Battle-Hardened Iktomisaurus |
• Frequently leaps into the air and carries a small hitbox, incentivizing you to have Bow characters that perform with their Normal Attacks. | ||
| Special Boss Mechanics | |||
| • During battle, the foe periodically leaps up into the air, continously unleashing powerful sonic shockwaves while airborne. • During battle, the foe will deploy a Cryo Ward to shield itself and leap into the air, dealing continuous damage over a wide area. After a period of time, it will unleash a single, devastating AoE attack. Break the Ward with Elemental Reactions to knock the foe to the ground, dealing a single instance of massive DMG, as well as interrupting its attack preparation. • Three special torches will appeear on the edge of the battlefield. While near a torch, hitting opponents with Charged Attacks or Aimed Shots will trigger an additional instance of Pyro DMG. |
|||
| Special Boss Mechanics (Fearless and Above) | |||
| • Affected by the Ley Line disturbance, the foe gains increased All RES. During battle, it leaps into the air more frequently, temporarily hovering in place and continuously unleashing powerful sonic shockwaves while airborne. • During battle, the foe will deploy a Cryo Ward for protection and leap into the air to begin charging. After a period of time, it will instantly defeat your active character. Break the Ward with Elemental Reactions to knock the foe to the ground, interrupt its attack preparation, and deal a single instance of massive DMG based on the amount of DMG the Ward absorbed. While the foe is preparing its attack, all characters in your party will regain Elemental Energy, Fighting Spirit, or Serpent's Subtlety. If, after a period of time, the Ward has not been broken, Frosthail Zones will appear on the ground: Triggering Elemental Reactions to destroy each Frosthail Zone can also weaken and eventually break the Cryo Ward. • Affected by the Ley Line disturbance, when the foe begins charging up Frosthail Execution, a Disruption Vortex will appear on the field, dealing AoE Cryo DMG to both allies and enemies. If the vortex hits the foe, the foe's Anemo RES will be reduced and its Ward will be depleted. Additionally, the Disruption Vortex can also be affected by pull effects, which may alter its movement path. |

Stage 2 Strategy
Displace the Iktomisaurus
Since the Iktomisaurus is considered a normal foe, they can be displaced and crowd controlled by Anemo units such as Venti and Sucrose, allowing you to juggle and prevent it from doing attacks for a time.
Cheese with Jean
With a Jean and Amber comp, you can use Amber to take down the Iktomisaurus' Cryo Ward before using Jean's Held Down Elemental Skill to lift and slam it down to the ground repeatedly.
If done correctly, this only needs to be repeated twice in order to defeat it.
Rotations Will Be Timed To Frosthail Execution
The Iktomisaurus will charge all your Elemental Bursts as it charges itself for Frosthail Execution. This means that your damage rotations will work around this mechanic and the Cryo Ward.
This also means that Energy won't be much of an issue during this challenge, so you can use your Elemental Skills and Bursts liberally, so long as you have enough Elemental DMG to break the Iktomisaurus's Cryo Ward.
Stage 2 Co-Op Strategy
Bring Multiple Bow Units
With more On-Field units on the battlefield, you can be more free-form with your rotations as you and your allies can maintain a steady stream of damage with multiple Bow units.
Once the Iktomisaurus attempts to charge its AoE attack, you and your allies can move to the edges where the special torches are and strike the Iktomisaurus from a distance to shred its shield easily.

Stage 3 Enemy Information
| Stage 3 Opponent | Boss Notes | ||
|---|---|---|---|
 Experimental Field Generator
|
• Needs to be Plunge Attacked in order to prevent it from powering up. • Carries a special condition that prevents units like Chasca and Flins from taking advantage of the height DMG amplifiers. |
||
| Special Boss Mechanics | |||
| • During battle, the foe generates a Gravity Reduction Field that greatly increases characters' jump height, while gravitational shockwaves that cannot be dodged continously erupt on the ground. The Gravity Reduction Field can be shut down by directing 3 Pneuma attacks at the exposed Ousia core. | |||
| Special Boss Mechanics (Fearless and Above) | |||
| • Affected by the Ley Lines disturbance, the foe generates a Gravity Reduction Field during combat, greatly increasing characters' jump height. Each time a character reaches a certain height, their ATK is significantly increased for a short period. In addition, gravitational shockwaves that cannot be dodged continuously erupt on the ground, growing stronger and more frequent over time. The enhancement to the gravitational shockwaves will gradually be reduced with each Plunging Attack received. • Affected by the Ley Line disturbance, the Ousia core grows more robust, and the Gravity Reduction Field will remain active even after receiving 3 Pneuma attacks. |

| Recommended Units | |||
| Plunging Characters | |||
Stage 3 Strategy
Abuse Plunging Attacks
While the Experimental Field Generator powers up your Plunging Attacks, it is not exclusively a boon as failing to do so will increase the damage output of the enemy if not hit with a Plunge attack, as well as putting you at higher risk of dying due to the gravitational shockwaves.
With that in mind, Plunging Attack characters can completely bypass this mechanic while reaping its benefits.
Stage 3 Co-Op Strategy
Bring Multiple Plunge and Arkhe-Aligned Units
A Co-Op team against the Experimental Field Generator must consist of either a Plunge DPS, a Pneuma Arkhe DPS, or both.
Having both allows you to clear the boss faster, as well as having the potential to disable the Field Generator for a time.

Anonymous 16 daysfor a skirk freeze team if there is no escoffier, its better to replace her slot with mika instead of with layla as mikas ultimate heal will still allow furina to build fanfare, and on the plus he buffs normal attack speed so skirk will have a bit more dps than with layla
