Clash-ing Through Campaign ft. RRH & Maxwell (CDR Variant)
CampaignCrown· Little Mermaid· Rapi: Red Hood· Maxwell· Naga
[Source: prydwen.gg Team Database] Rapi: Red Hood funnel team with Maxwell's buff. Overloading Rapipi can be beneficial for some stages where one rotation (usually Rapipi's rotation) is much more significant than the other. Substitutions: - (Element: Iron)
Clash-ing Through Campaign ft. RRH & Maxwell (CDR + RH Variant)
CampaignCrown· Little Mermaid· Rapi: Red Hood· Maxwell· Red Hood
[Source: prydwen.gg Team Database] Rapi: Red Hood funnel team that is slightly more balanced and flexible since RH can buff Maxwell's Burst and also B3 if needed. However, Rapipi will deal less damage. Substitutions: - (Element: Iron)
Clash-ing Through Campaign ft. RH & Maxwell (CDR Variant)
CampaignCrown· Rapi: Red Hood· Red Hood· Maxwell· Naga
[Source: prydwen.gg Team Database] Maxwell team used to be popular back in the days for one-shotting bosses. She has never become outdated, although many new DPS have outshone her. An invested Maxwell, paired with RH B1 buff and Naga's Core Damage can deal debilitating damage to an enemy. Substitutions: - (Element: Iron)
Manual Play with Lots of Clicking
CampaignLiter· Centi· Alice· Maxwell· Privaty
[Source: prydwen.gg Team Database] This is the traditional team pushing story. They have semi wipe with Privaty (mostly, just stun), boss killing with Alice (requires extremely high investment but she's worth), and damage buffers with Maxwell + Liter + Privaty. Problem is, they require you to "aim" manually, and it's not a good experience aiming those small flying Raptures from afar. Highly NOT recommended, just putting them here as a tribute to the past. Substitutions: This Team is part of Meta Teams - Story Guide. Check here for further information and viable substitutes.
Artillery vs Moth
BossCrown· Zwei· Snow White· Maxwell· Helm: Aquamarine
[Source: prydwen.gg Team Database] A high investment, high reward team. Snow White needs highest final ATK than the rest of the team to make sure she gets Miranda (Treasure)'s Critical Rate buff. Make sure every Snow White nuke hits the core and 2 parts. Substitutions: Zwei (Treasure) may be replaced by Miranda (Treasure). Maxwell may be replaced with Rapi: Red Hood or Cinderella: Crystal Wave if and only if Snow White still manages to get Miranda (Treasure)'s S2 Critical Rate buff. (Element: Iron)
Iron Third Team
BossZwei· Mint· Snow White· Maxwell· Helm
[Source: prydwen.gg Team Database] - Substitutions: Zwei Treasure may be replaced by Miranda Treasure. Mint may be replaced with Grave or Bunny Ade. (Element: Iron)
