Best Teams Against Ten Stonehearts - Aventurine of Stratagems

Free to Play Team

F2P Team
Star Rail - ServalServal Star Rail - TrailblazerTrailblazer Star Rail - March 7thMarch 7th Star Rail - NatashaNatasha

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.

Alternative Explanation
Star Rail - HertaHerta 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
Star Rail - AcheronAcheron Star Rail - JiaoqiuJiaoqiu Star Rail - PelaPela Star Rail - GallagherGallagher

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

Alternative Explanation
Star Rail - Jing YuanJing 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.
Star Rail - Fu XuanFu Xuan Healer Replacement
Fu Xuan can increase the party's CRIT Rate and mitigate the DMG taken. Her Ultimate can heal the party, making it easier to survive longer.
Star Rail - AventurineAventurine Healer Replacement
Aventurine can provide shields to the party and can even implant a CRIT DMG debuff on his enemy counterpart.

DoT-Based Team

Premium DoT Team
Star Rail - KafkaKafka Star Rail - Black SwanBlack Swan Star Rail - Ruan MeiRuan Mei Star Rail - LuochaLuocha

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

Use Ruan Mei to increase Break Efficiency and delay the enemy's recovery from Weakness Break. Luocha can provide healing and use his Ultimate to attack all of the All or Nothing dice.

Alternative Explanation
Star Rail - ServalServal 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.
Star Rail - HuohuoHuohuo 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
Star Rail - ArgentiArgenti Star Rail - SparkleSparkle Star Rail - TingyunTingyun Star Rail - HuohuoHuohuo

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. Use Sparkle to provide extra turns and DMG buffs to Argenti.

Tingyun and Huohuo can provide energy restoration so that Argenti can use his Ultimate frequently.

Alternative Explanation
Star Rail - PelaPela Support Replacement
Pela can decrease the DEF of all enemies using her Ultimate. She can also cover Aventurine's weakness to Ice.
Star Rail - HanyaHanya Support Replacement
Hanya can provide more Skill Points for Aventurine to use. She can also use Penacony, Land of the Dreams to increase Argenti's DMG even further.
Star Rail - Silver WolfSilver Wolf Support Replacement
Silver Wolf can inflict several debuffs that are useful in defeating Aventurine.
Star Rail - Fu XuanFu 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
Star Rail - JingliuJingliu Star Rail - BronyaBronya Star Rail - PelaPela Star Rail - HuohuoHuohuo

If you have Jingliu, you can use her as your DPS to fight Ten Stonehearts - Aventurine of Stratagems. Bronya and Pela can provide Support through DMG buffs and DEF shred respectively.

Alternative Explanation
Star Rail - GepardGepard 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.
Star Rail - March 7thMarch 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.
Star Rail - LynxLynx 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.

All Ten Stonehearts - Aventurine of Stratagems Achievements

How to Get Boxcars Achievement

There is no guaranteed way to get the Boxcars achievement since it relies on RNG. This is because the achievement requires you to cause at least two All or Nothings to roll a 6 simultaneously in a single attack.

We recommend using characters like Pela and Argenti since they have abilities that can hit every All or Nothings on the battlefield.

If you have yet to obtain this achievement and the battle is about to end, consider retreating the fight in order to try unlocking it again!

How to Get All My People, All My People… Achievement

To get the All My People, All My People… achievement, you need to reach the second phase of the boss fight since this is where everyone in the team will be forced to join Ten Stonehearts - Aventurine of Stratagems's Gamble.

Do not use your Ultimates that deal DMG until Ten Stonehearts - Aventurine of Stratagems summons All or Nothings. This way, your characters can attack multiple times in one turn, increasing your chances of four characters winning the Gamble in the same round.

One more thing is the RNG for phase 1. Every time I tried this boss, Gepard was the only one selected for the gamble so he always lost. Not sure if SPD plays a factor because he has the lowest SPD on my team. Natasha had 4.4K HP and Gepard 2.6K DEF. Serval 1.7K ATK and TB 1.5K ATK. You could maybe use M7 if you don't have Gepard just manage your SP for individual shields on whoever can't AOE for the gamble mode. Phase 2 was really saved by Gepard and Natasha HP/DEF for the team.

I beat this with lv 70 Phys TB, Natasha, Serval and Gepard. All lv 70 LCs and max purple/yellow relics. You basically want to beef up as much of Gepard's DEF and have as much HP on Natasha through relics/lightcones/traces. As you lose the gambles with Gepard or Natasha you can survive and use your shield/heal ults every 2 cycles or so. Also used the Preservation LC on Gepard that applies burn DOT when he gets hit and you can patiently drain him with DOTs and Basic ATK. Slow n steady wins this.
