Svarog Faceoff Match Guide

Svarog Faceoff Match F2P Team

Best Team for Svarog Faceoff Match
Feixiao	March 7th (Imaginary)	Robin	Lynx

Feixiao, Imaginary March 7th, and Robin are available as trial characters.

Feixiao and March 7th will be the main damage dealers in Svarog's Faceoff Match. Keep Feixiao in the first slot of the party so she can get her Ultimate faster from the Arena Environment.

Robin will be helpful in advancing your team's actions and providing extra buffs while Lynx offers healing for extra survivability.

Best Tactical Codex and Beverage

Uproot the Cause	Codex Effect: Causes ally characters to immediately take an action after their next action, and increases their DMG dealt by 50%.
Mighty Quench	Beverage Effect: After triggering a follow-up attack, increases DMG received by the target by 10%, stacking up to 4 times.

In Svarog's Faceoff Match, Uproot the Cause will help your team perform consecutive actions. Meanwhile, Mighty Quench will further increase the DMG taken by enemies, especially with Feixiao and March 7th's follow-up attacks.

How to Beat Svarog's Faceoff Match

Perform Consecutive Actions to Increase DMG

Utilize Feixiao and March 7th's follow-up attacks to increase Vibes in Svarog's Faceoff Match. This also stacks up Ready for Battle, which increases Ultimate DMG and allows the first character in the party setup to immediately use their Ultimate with every 12 stacks.

When the enemy acts, you'll lose your stacks. Save Robin's Ultimate for when your turn is about to end so that your characters can act again and delay the enemy's turn. You can also use the Uproot the Cause codex when it has enough energy.

Take Down Boss Summons Quickly

When Svarog summons his Auxiliary Robot Arms, be sure to defeat them before they act so that they don't interrupt your Ready for Battle stacks.

Stellaron Hunter: SAM Match Guide

Stellaron Hunter: SAM F2P Team

Best Team for Stellaron Hunter: SAM
Feixiao	March 7th (Imaginary)	Lingsha	Asta

Feixiao, Imaginary March 7th, and Lingsha are available as trial characters.

Feixiao and March 7th's follow-up attacks will be your main source of damage in this fight. Meanwhile, Lingsha and Asta can also help decrease enemy Toughness as they provide healing and additional buffs.

Best Tactical Codex and Beverage

Out of Thin Air	Codex Effect: All allies immediately activate their Ultimates.
Mighty Quench	Beverage Effect: After triggering a follow-up attack, increases DMG received by the target by 10%, stacking up to 4 times.

Out of Thin Air and Mighty Quench will allow your team to get their Ultimates quicker and further increase the damage taken by enemies.

How to Beat Stellaron Hunter: SAM

Inflict Weakness Breaks on Summons

To gain Vibes quickly in this battle, you'll need to inflict Weakness Breaks on enemies. This will reduce the Toughness of other enemies on the field, including the boss. It's best to keep your attacks aimed at the regular Trashcan summons, who'll be easier to Weakness Break.

Target the Boss in Super Hype State

Once you've entered the Super Hype state, the Golden Trashcan boss will become vulnerable. Unleash your strongest attacks on the boss while it's Weakness Broken!

Best Team for Karmic Hinkypunk
Argenti	Herta	Huohuo	Asta

Argenti, Herta, and Huohuo are available as trial characters.

Keep Argenti in the first slot of the party setup since he can quickly get his Ultimate and earn Vibes for this match. Herta will deal additional AoE DMG while Huohuo and Asta provide Energy, healing, and ATK buffs for the team.

Best Tactical Codex and Beverage

Out of Thin Air	Codex Effect: All allies immediately activate their Ultimates.
Westroc Super Drink	Beverage Effect: For every target defeated by allied characters, the characters regenerate 3 points of Energy.

Out of Thin Air and Westroc Super Drink synergize well with Argenti and will allow the team to unleash their Ultimates much faster.

How to Beat Karmic Hinkypunk

Use Argenti's Ultimate as Much as Possible

Argenti's Ultimates will be the only way you can raise Vibes during this match. Be sure to use it as soon as it's available to quickly accumulate Vibes. You can also use Huohuo's Ultimate to replenish Argenti's Energy faster!

Defeat Waves of Summons with AoE Attacks

You can only defeat this match's boss by taking down its summons. Continue using your team's AoE attacks as much as possible to clear the enemy waves easily!
