Best Team Compositions

Versus Newborn Dead End Butcher

Attack	Stun	Support
Ellen	Lycaon	Soukaku
Alternate Agents
-	Anby	Rina

It's recommended to bring an Ice team comp to exploit the Newborn Dead End Butcher's weaknesses. If you're a F2P player, you can use alternate characters instead, like Anby or your strongest DPS Agent.

As for Rina, she provides Faction and Electric synergy with Ellen and Anby respectively, but is overall weaker than Soukaku who is a free character.

Best Team Comps

Versus Unknown Corruption Complex

Attack	Anomaly	Support
Anton	Grace	Rina
Alternate Agents
Grace	Anby	Nicole

It's recommended to bring an Electric team comp to exploit the Unknown Corruption Complex's weaknesses. If you're a F2P player, you can use alternate characters instead, like Anby or Nicole.

As a note, this team comp can be very flexible with roles since you have someone like Grace who can adjust to have a more DPS or Supportive-centric role.
