Best Team for Ruin 5

Underground Treasure Hunt Day 5 Best Team
Kafka	Sampo	Asta	Luocha

With Kafka and Asta as the Trial Characters on Day 5 we will be able to make a very strong DoT-type team.

Adding Sampo to team is a great choice since Svarog is weak to Wind-type damage and adding Luocha to the party will ensure the party can survive through anything.
