Best Teams Against Ten Stonehearts - Aventurine of Stratagems

Free to Play Team

F2P Team
Serval	Trailblazer	March 7th	Natasha

Bring in Serval and Trailblazer (Physical) since Ten Stonehearts - Aventurine of Stratagems is weak to their elements. Both DPS have AoE abilities that can attack multiple All or Nothings.

To keep them alive, bring in March 7th to provide shields and dish out some follow-up attacks. For the healer, Natasha is the best option due to her element.

If you have the other 5-star or 4-star characters mentioned below, you can replace the F2P characters above for them. Defeating the boss using a strict free to play team is difficult to achieve unless you are really lucky.

Other Recommended Characters

Alternative	Explanation
Herta	DPS Replacement Herta can be Serval's replacement since she can also dish out some AoE DMG with her kit. She will not have a hard time winning Aventurine's Gambles because of her Skill and Ultimate.

Lightning Hyper Carry Team

Acheron DPS
Acheron	Silver Wolf	Pela	Bailu

Acheron is a solid DPS against Ten Stonehearts - Aventurine of Stratagems since he is weak to Lightning. Bringing in two other Nihility units is ideal for a team with Acheron since you will be able to max out the DMG buff from her Bonus Ability.

With this, Silver Wolf and Pela can debuff Ten Stonehearts - Aventurine of Stratagems on their turn to stack up Acheron's Slashed Dream.

In case someone dies due to losing the Gamble that Ten Stonehearts - Aventurine of Stratagems initiates, Bailu can revive them with her Talent!

Other Recommended Characters

Alternative	Explanation
Jing Yuan	DPS Replacement You can replace Acheron with Jing Yuan if you do not have her. Jing Yuan's AoE abilities can easily allow him to win Aventurine's Gamble. Do note that if Jing Yuan gets inflicted with Imprisonment, his Lightning-Lord will not take its turn.
Fu Xuan	Healer Replacement With Silver Wolf in the team, you will not have any issues implanting the Quantum Weakness to Aventurine. So, you can bring in Fu Xuan to help Weakness Break the boss. With her Ultimate, she also has a high chance of winning Aventurine's Gamble because it deals DMG to all enemies on the field. Depending on your Fu Xuan's build, her heals may not be enough to keep the team alive.
Gallagher	Healer Replacement While Aventurine is not weak to Fire, Gallagher's ATK reduction debuff with his Enhanced Basic ATK is useful for this boss fight since Aventurine deals a lot of DMG. Gallagher is also one of the few Abundance characters whose Ultimate deals AoE DMG. With Galagher's debuffs, he can also help Acheron stack Slashed Dream.

DoT-Based Team

Premium DoT Team
Kafka	Luka	Pela	Luocha

A DoT-based team with Kafka as the Main DPS and Luka as the secondary DPS will work great against Ten Stonehearts - Aventurine of Stratagems.

Pela as the debuffer can reduce the boss' DEF and she has a high chance of winning the Gamble with her Ultimate. While the boss is resistant to Imaginary DMG, there is no doubt that Luocha's passive healing is needed!

Other Recommended Characters

Alternative	Explanation
Serval	Sub-DPS Replacement Although Serval is not a Nihility character, she can still add more Lightning damage and DoT for the team. With her AoE abilities she can easily win Aventurine's Gamble. So, you can replace Luka with Serval if you do not have him.
Huohuo	Healer Replacement While Aventurine is not weak to Wind, you can replace Luocha with Huohuo. She can regenerate some of the team's energy using her Ultimate, which they may need during Aventurine's Gamble. But, do not expect her to win most of Aventurine's Gamble unless you are lucky. If Huohuo dies and she is the team's only sustain unit, you basically lose the boss fight.

Physical Hyper Carry Team

Argenti DPS
Argenti	Hanya	Pela	Luocha

If you want to run a Physical team, Argenti is the best DPS to use against Ten Stonehearts - Aventurine of Stratagems due to his AoE abilities.

Similar to the teams above, Pela is a great unit against the boss due to her debuffing abilities. Hanya can apply Burden to enemies which restores SP when allies attack enemies with it. Similar to the DoT team, Luocha is part of the team due to his passive healing.

Other Recommended Characters

Alternative	Explanation
Silver Wolf	Support Replacement If you do not have Hanya or Pela but for some reason have Silver Wolf, you can replace them with her. Silver Wolf can inflict several debuffs that are useful in defeating Aventurine.
Fu Xuan	Healer Replacement With Silver Wolf in the team, you can replace Luocha with Fu Xuan. She has a high chance of winning Aventurine's gamble with her Ultimate. Depending on your Fu Xuan's build, her heals may not be enough to keep the team alive.

Ice Hyper Carry Team

Jingliu DPS
Jingliu	Silver Wolf	Pela	Bailu

If you have Jingliu, you can use her as your DPS to fight Ten Stonehearts - Aventurine of Stratagems. Bring in Pela to reduce the boss' DEF. Add Silver Wolf for her to further inflict the boss with more debuffs.

Bailu as the healer can revive fallen allies. If her Invigorated buff is active, allies will be healed when Ten Stonehearts - Aventurine of Stratagems attacks them.

Other Recommended Characters

Alternative	Explanation
Gepard	Support Replacement If you are struggling to beat Aventurine, you can replace one of the supports for Gepard to ensure that Jingliu does not die. We do not recommend swapping out Bailu for Gepard since his shields may not be enough to keep the team alive as Jingliu also drains her allies HP.
March 7th	Support Replacement You can replace one of your supports with March 7th. Her Skill can shield allies and every time Aventurine attacks that ally, she does a follow-up attack. Her Ultimate also damages all enemies on the field, allowing March 7th to win Aventurine's gamble.
Lynx	Healer Replacement If you do not have Bailu, Lynx is a possible substitute for this boss fight. Unlike Bailu, Lynx can cleanse debuffs. Cleanse is useful against Aventurine since his abilities can inflict Imprisonment. If Lynx's heals are not enough you can add in a Preservation character like Gepard or March 7th.
