Appears in 20 teams

Showing 6 representative teams.

Alternate Combo Team 1

Boss

Liter· Grave· Cinderella: Crystal Wave· Maxwell· Centi

[Source: prydwen.gg Team Database] Remember to replace Maxwell with Red Hood or another DPS if the intention is to hit two times only. Or just use the main team recommended instead of this one if you are planning to hit two times Substitutions: Grave may be replaced with Nayuta or Bunny Ade. Centi Treasure may be replaced with Summer Helm or another buffer like Privaty or Maid Mast. Maxwell may be replaced with Red Hood or Raven if players do not intend to hit three times. (Element: Iron)

Snow perma crit

Boss

Miranda· Grave· Snow White· Ada Wong

[Source: prydwen.gg character page] The idea is the same: Using Ada to fix Crit Rate buff landing. With this, during Snow burst, she always have Crit Rate buff, and making her burst deal juicy damage.

Complimentary Train to Hell

Boss

Tove· Grave· Dorothy: Serendipity· Drake· Soline: Frost Ticket

[Source: prydwen.gg character page] The ultimate SG team that competes with the Rouge Blanc variant. Grave boosts damage and accelerates rotations, whereas Soline gives CDR, deals supplemental damage, and provides a minor but potentially crucial heal. Substitutions: Leona can be used in place of Grave if well-invested and against Water-weak, and if she helps SGs reach effective range (wouldn't reach otherwise). BAde can be used in place of Grave but has less convenient burst gen.

Doro's Redemption Arc II (ft. SElegg)

Boss

Liter· Grave· Dorothy: Serendipity· Helm· Elegg: Boom and Shock

[Source: prydwen.gg character page] A Siren-and-Crown-less variant of the first team, featuring Liter and Grave. In this comp, Liter synergizes well with HelmTr and SElegg, providing ATK buff before their Burst Skill(s) — which amplifies their damage. Doro also gains extra Ammo and Pierce DMG from Grave and Liter. Grave and Liter also work together to achieve/abuse 8.2s CDR, allowing for a total of 15 Full Burst rotations. Only use against Water-weak. Substitutions: HelmTr can be replaced with XLud. (Element: Water)

Miranda Shenanigans

Boss

Miranda· Grave· EVE

[Source: prydwen.gg character page] Crit damage buff team with MirandaT, where Grave and Eve take advantage of Miranda's crit damage buffs (Element: Iron)

Grave Steals Mari's EVA friends

Boss

Liter· Grave· Asuka Shikinami Langley· Rei Ayanami· Modernia

[Source: prydwen.gg character page] This team focuses on buffing Asuka and originally used Mari instead of Grave. Now, Grave is a better option here as she can benefit Asuka's and Rei's buff as well as providing the team with loads of Pierce DMG▲ and ATK DMG▲. If you somehow don't have built Alice, or if you are a fan of Evangelion, this team would excite you. (Element: Fire)
