Team Comp and Strategy Guide: Isle Cryptid

By Destroth

Thunderous Movement

When Boss is attacked or when the minion’s HP is depleted, it will gain [Thunderous Movement] stack.

• 1* Incantation = 1 stack.
• 2* Incantation = 3 stacks.
• 3* Incantation = 5 stacks.
• Follow-Up Attack (except if ranked) = 1 stack Minion HP reaches 0 = 3 stacks.

• At 1-7 stacks – Nothing happen
• At 8-13 stacks – Boss will do an additional attack, this attack hits exceptionally hard especially if Boss has a shield. Shield grants Boss 30% penetration rate, additional 20% (total 50%) on his additional attack.
• At 14 stacks and above Boss will deal dmg on self (10% of mHP, which is 20k Genesis in Endless MODE).

These units are really good to deal with the stack as they either do multiple ranked incantation in a round (Windsong, Lucy) or have mechanics to rank up incantations (Marcus, Mercuria, An Ann Lee, 6). Marcus and An Ann Lee also have afflatus advantage.

Take advantage of the shield

If Boss has a shield it receives 20% lesser dmg but if the shield is broken Boss will receive 60% more dmg but only for that same round the shield is broken. It could be a waste to use a strong incantation to break the shield hence use Genesis Dmg instead.

Tickle the right side minion

The “Right” Minion will gain taunt if it did not receive any dmg in the round before. So do any form of DMG at it. AOE follow-up attack like those from Isolde, 37, and Semmelweis can be useful to deal with it. Another highly recommended option is using Kakania, whenever she have “Empathy” and receive healing, she reflects back Genesis Dmg on the enemy which is counted as dealing dmg.

Recommended rotation

After Boss HP is depleted, a new phase will begin (Endless Mode)

• Round 1: Boss will do a single target atk and gain a shield. Use this turn to bring [Thunderous Movement] to about 5-7 stacks.
• Round 2: This is the best time to break the shield and do as much dmg as possible but make sure to go all out of you are able to hit 14 stacks. Else, use this turn to reach 7 stacks. Althought it is a wasted opportunity, make sure to break the shield to reduce dmg taken.
• Round 3: This round, unleash your saved up high rank incantation and make sure Boss reaches 14 stacks.

Recommended team

Apology, I do not have Marcus, hence I did not include her here in the list. But a team with Marcus, Vila, Mercuria will totally destroy this Boss.

Lucy additional atk are rank 2 and inflict 3 stacks of [Thunderous Movement] to the enemy. If Boss is defeated, the minion will also be defeated, hence Lucy will trigger multiple follow-up attack. Lucy also have many AOE attack and can easily defeat the minion and inflict 3 stacks of [Thunderous Movement]. Defeating the minion and not the Boss with not trigger follow-up attack.
