RC15+ Rift: 1 Round Clear - 3 Different teams and a 4th 2 round. Kane, Milim, JackO', and Mercedes

[@TristenWulf]

I used Surin and Haste in all these teams because 1) Candlestick Surin solves the consistency problem of defense breaks falling off 2) Cadlestick Haste solves the consistency problem of too many counters getting your team killed They are not REQUIRED. They are just best in slot. Feel free to use any defense breaker to replace Haste: Eligos, Ken, Elphelt, Khawazu, Baal&Sezan, whatever. Feel free to use any debuff spammer to replace Surin: Khawazu, Haste, Serilla, Godmother, watever. These are not the only way. This was just my way. Also note: Ken's EE has no real impact in Rift as Dual attacks cannot be triggered there. It is a nice stat stick though More team comps can be found here: kzbin.info/aero/PLR4r1sF-m8S0LeP8jTfCib2aBefLuErcE

i run shuri song of stars and haste war horn both at about 190ish speed. if you have a really good rage set on kane (straze one shots all hunts except caides in it) with alencias arty and your hazel has 220 res this is pretty easy content. my shuri has a lvl 67 chest and haste has a health ring. they never die and the debuffs dont really fall off. sure the debuffs can fall off if you're the unluckiest person alive. but no real speed tuning and only 4 molas on haste. kane is gog. long story long i'm just surprised that i havent seen anyone show a team with shuri in it.

[@freakris]

You're such a blessing to the E7 community, Tristen. We are so lucky to have you. Thanks a lot.

[@roncamacho1450]

i've tried the milim team, and now I can clear the rift with 2 rounds with rc8. this really helps! thank you so much! more guide please!

[@TristenWulf]

awesome.

[@RavenGivens]

mate Tristen you are a monster can consistently clear in one run cause of this!

[@TristenWulf]

Awesome :)

[@Luke-jx6er]

These videos have been SUCH a great help for this game mode, thank you

[@g0ldenb0y87]

Explains so good, that I think if he was my math teacher, I would've loved math.

[@yokhy7080]

Awesome guide, now I able 2run RC8.. Thanks man My unit.. Haste 244spd dustdevil,Hazel 197spd idol+18,Surin 194spd candle, Kane 177spd rage with his art+15

[@Pedram_Aphotic]

🎉🎉 gogogo you are on fireeee... need more one shot hunts + hell raid teams ❤

[@TristenWulf]

Thank you :)

[@BugCatLove]

Thx for these guides man. It helps a lot

[@TristenWulf]

Glad you like them!

[@MilleniuM848]

is it ok to replace Haste with Elphelt on song of stars?

[@TristenWulf]

Eligos is better but that can work. You lose a lot of healing without haste and she wastes turns with her low damage extra attack but it is viable. I used it for a day and it worked well but didnt like the lack of healing.

[@jhonrhicortiz]

What are your thoughts on Ken's new EE that makes makes his S2 call for dual attack with the highest atk ally? I was thinking of replacing Surin with him for more stable def break, but after watching this video of Surin using candlestick i'm not so sure anymore. 😅 I only have one +30 candlestick though, so i'd probably use Alasbatron on Haste.

[@TristenWulf]

I think it makes him potentially great in other content but it does nothing for him here as dual attacks are turned off.

[@jhonrhicortiz]

@@TristenWulf ow right i totally forgot about because tbh i didn't really bother reading all the boss mechanics. I just copied what you and Valky posted in your video guides. Tnx! 🙂

[@zFlashyPoo]

can we use ken instead of surin plus his new ee?

[@TristenWulf]

his new new EE doesnt change anything but his Crit chance. You cant dual attack in Rift, But yes you can use Ken in place of Surin. Its covered in my last video in the playlist

[@tylerjhaye2560]

Thanks for the guide, I have been having a more consistent run because of this. I'm currently using adv. ras as my frontline since I still can't achieve 220% eff. res. on mascot Hazel. Can anyone pls. recommend an artifact other than Idol's cheer for Mascot Hazel? For now, I'm using Touch of Rekos on her.

[@sophmatt6932]

Prophetic Candlestick works well on Hazel too.

[@traptrixs1129]

Why 100 crit on jacko isn't 85 enough with the artifact ?

[@TristenWulf]

Correct, Its just what the gear did.

[@XDEFXD]

I have too much gear now that I have to put gear on characters to make room. X.x

[@TristenWulf]

welcome to my world LOL

[@Awesm0e]

I've been wondering if there was a good way to clear rc15 with a 4 dps team and the perk that makes extra attacks heal.. but so far couldn't come up with anything.. yet !

[@TristenWulf]

I was able to do it but not as a 1-turn clear.

[@kfc902]

@tristenwulf is it worth it though? Think you would do a vid on rewards?

[@TristenWulf]

If you can clear it in 1-2 rounds i think it is

[@Nerby121]

was wondering if there will be alternatives to no idol cheer hazel?

[@TristenWulf]

You could run it with no idols cheer but you may need to speed up the DPS to compensate.

[@meozac4195]

Tristen...I don't have Haste and Kane....Is it still possible to do this rift without them? I'm in despair 😔

[@Girm17]

fire ken, milim, surin, hazel has been reliable for me but getting it to 1 turn kill is gonna be harder

[@meozac4195]

@@Girm17 Are they auto-able?

[@Girm17]

@@meozac4195 yea i havent had any issues slamming it on auto after fire ken does his S2 i think tristen has prior videos of the comp im not at RC15 yet so im unsure how it changes from there

[@redgumball97]

I found success by using surin with lifesteal and Elphelt with some decent bulk. Sucks that it’s a collab character but I average about 70-80% damage on rift level 13. (Using the milim team)

[@redgumball97]

But as Tristen said. If you can’t reliably clear 2-3 turns before lvl 15 and 2-1 turn after lvl 15. You will have a much, and I mean much better time farming hunts. Good luck man

[@watawatan0w]

Why does Surin's S3 not stack with the bosses x5 hit buff extension?

[@TristenWulf]

I reported it as a glicth. Hate that. It should.

[@Louieskyy]

Tristan, pen set dont work on RIFT? I saw some vídeos before with crit + rage set (actually that would be easy to build)

[@TristenWulf]

Correct. If you look at one of the bosses skills it mentions "Immune to all forms of defense penetration"

[@themassagechair6785]

Doesn't relying on Haste's Vampiric Touch for survivability mean that you have 2 fail conditions due to 15 %?

[@TristenWulf]

No. you don't NEED it. Its just another layer of stability, His S2 healing is far FAR more important,

[@pittwo2683]

I know damage is the name of the game, however what if you ran lifesteal for Jack-O instead of rage? Just how much does it slow down a run?

[@TristenWulf]

With a really good lifesteal set that would be a clever solution

[@brads3484]

Do these teams work for auto clears rc8-rc14?

[@TristenWulf]

They might but no guarantee without the extra attack fragment. Best case is they are 2 round clears.

[@brads3484]

​@@TristenWulfthank you! Keep up the great content!

[@brads3484]

What's too slow on Surin? 160?

[@TristenWulf]

I wouldnt go much slower. Ideally she is as fast or close to as fast as Zeaon to help cycle hits

[@n1ghtm3rex77]

for the milim team does it matter if milim goes before surin? Asking only because I cannot make my milim faster than 175. Thx.

[@kaeldorWL]

Before I'd consider pulling for a character specifically for a given piece of content, I'd like to have more data about the content. We currently do not know how future challenges will look like. Similar to Hall of Trials there might be different "restriction + boss" combinations, so the next time we're limited to "Fire heroes only", the boss and thus the ideal teams might be different.

[@TristenWulf]

Can respect that Im sure hat new seasons will have their own custom units too :(

[@VictorRyuujin]

There is a team without haste?

[@TristenWulf]

you can replace haste with any def breaker. Eligos, Elphelt Ken, Even Khawazu. you just lose hastes healing.

[@lyken8780]

If I start from RC1 and use these teams, will I be fine all the way till RC15? Haven’t started rift yet and don’t really know much about it.

[@keoneh]

I have been neglecting this content since it came out. Getting into it now, is it advised to follow the builds for the lower levels or can I just gear me units as presented in this video?

[@chris2731]

can bingbang kill jacko if she has stealth?

[@morrisonfoerster1715]

Are all the teams that dont have surin that bad? T_T

[@TristenWulf]

No. the are just less stable. There are videos in the playlist that offer non-haste and also non-surin versions. I used Haste + Ken a whole lot before this team.

[@Alkaiser609]

Hey I understand the purpose of Magic with Friends but why not use Kaladra on her as well since she is a mage 30% damage increase? Does she die or something ?

[@andrepinto2602]

cant even get out of rift one lol

[@gnfkyu]

Hello Mr Wulf, while u said u prefer Haste what are your thought on Ken? mostly because i usually like to redeem like all my daily stam and auto repeat my runs i dont want to be watching every run and restart in case haste fail def break so Ken seems to be a better fail safe(still can be 15% but at least is not another 15% on top of that) ? did u found ur team to be dying and failing 1shot with Ken?(i assume u prolly tested most comps) just wanted a more elaborated answer if its not asking too much thanks in advance and i love your videos :D

[@TristenWulf]

Ken is safer to get the def break at the start but he has no healing. Haste has an AOE near full heal on his S2 which procs a lot with candlestick and also applies vampiric touch which helps units heal themselves. It gave me more stable runs. My assumption is by RC21 i wont need breaks and can just BG battle it at 100%

[@kihoonpark8975]

I have Haste at 190-195 speed which ensures he always uses S3 after the bosses Ult. I have water gun on him cuz anything else messes up the rotation.

[@TristenWulf]

fair

[@TheJedaly]

I would really appreciate practical gameplay without haste beeing used, thanks

[@TristenWulf]

Timestamped. Replace Kane with any of the DPS. I still prefer Surin on candlestick kzbin.info/www/bejne/o6m6paucl7CHndUsi=h4HfacvWxXu6YbvE&t=542

[@ryosasuke2832]

One run but am i 1% i thought that was a mainthing after rift 15

[@premkw3730]

May I ask why 95 Effectiveness is enough for both debuffer? Is there any reason or mechanic I missed? Since the Boss has 120 Eff Resistance and you run no unit with Water Shooter. Shouldn’t it be 105 in this case?

[@-SaKage]

Hazel brings in 10 eff for fire heroes from her runes

[@TristenWulf]

Mascot Hazel has a passive that gives all Fire units +10% Effectiveness.

[@sophmatt6932]

I'm curious why you recommend 95% effectiveness when the boss has 120% effect resistance. Is there some mechanic I'm missing?

[@TristenWulf]

Mascot Hazel has a passive in her skill tree that gives all fire units +10% Effectiveness

[@sophmatt6932]

So in other words 110 eff with Hazel's buff is close enough, considering that 10% missing won't make much of a difference? (Thanks for the reply btw) Also a big thank you for this video, I swapped my Baal and Sezan for Jacko and it's far more consistent. When I hit Rift controller 15 and 20 it might be fun to experiment with high speed Dust Devil Haste in the back row and a higher speed Surin with Baal and Sezan again. The idea is nice but very RNG heavy and the boss's CR push each turn is likely too great for extra speed and DD procs to overcome and keep the Arcs low enough for constant 7+ debuffs. @TristenWulf

[@zenderdravnn4421]

getting hard fucked by "15%" makes me wanna commit toaster bath, i swear i got "15%'d" like 10 times in a row, the least they can do is remove it from rift, but they won't it makes too much money now. All that wasted stamina will just be converted into lief packs to fuel more farming.

[@Ninja.Hitman]

all this time and after all these vids and u cant still make a team that's not mono fire (kappa)
