The Fight▾
TRANSFORMED twice in one month — two July-pull Legendaries AND the v11.65.0 balance patch (2026-07-02) buffing Searsha: her A3 now adds a 75% chance of 60% Dec DEF (the faction's FIRST shred) on a 4-turn CD plus a new 19% all-battle SPD aura; her HP Burns are protected on BOSSES only (wave burns are ordinary), and her A2 strips all buffs, insta-activates burns, and Block-Buffs the wave. Lady of Ireth (HH FW S-tier Defensive Support) cleanses, crit-heals off her own MAX HP, and auto-Shields the lowest ally (every turn once booked); Wyrennon leads (20% crypt SPD aura) with tempo + revive safety; Locwain and Thorn Golem carry damage and control.

Dec DEF / ACC aura
Mistrider DaithiFNEW — Ayumi FW 5★: A2 AoE 60% Dec DEF at 75% that grants an EXTRA TURN when it lands on every enemy, A3 self ATK+ACC buff that also grants an Extra Turn. 40 ACC aura in ALL battles — it pays the crypt's debuff tax for Searsha and Wyrennon too4★

Rhaia the MournedVNEW and the faction's only 6★ (arrived built, 2026-07-30). Ayumi FW 5★. A3 hits all enemies 3× stealing a buff per hit; A2 ignores Block Damage plus up to 35% DEF and drops an UNRESISTABLE AoE Stun when it kills; A1 self-heals 30% and grants an Extra Turn on a kill, so she snowballs through crypt waves. Void — never weak-hits on any floor6★

Levers
- ›Build order: Lady of Ireth to 50-60 (sustain anchor, no 6★ needed) → Wyrennon → Locwain; Searsha rides her queue build (#18).
- ›Gladewulf and Treeshield Knott rotate to the bench — Gladewulf's swap case is AoE Provoke (50%, 75% booked) + Ally Protection damage-flattening on heavy-AoE stages (he has ZERO TM manip — old claim was wrong); Treeshield's case is second reviver + 15% crypt SPD aura (his Dec ATK is a 20%-per-hit 25% rider — not a plan).
- ›The Dec DEF gap is CLOSED (v11.65.0): Searsha's A3 now shreds 60% at 75% chance — sequence it before Locwain and the burn ticks. Aura call: Wyrennon's 20% crypt SPD edges Searsha's new 19% all-battle SPD, and only the leader's applies — keep Wyrennon in the lead slot.
- ›July 2026: MISTRIDER DAITHI takes Locwain's damage seat — AoE Dec DEF with an Extra-Turn rider is more throughput than Locwain's execute loop, and his 40 ACC aura in all battles is the faction's first real answer to the crypt accuracy floor. Myciliac Priest Orn joins the bench as a poison body (25% Poison Sensitivity + on-demand detonation) but rates only FW 3★ — dungeons are his content.
- ›AURA DECISION (new 2026-07-30): Rhaia's 35% Ally ATK in ALL battles now competes with Searsha's 19% all-battle SPD for the lead slot — only one aura is live. Take Rhaia's ATK when the crypt is a damage race (she also feeds her own passive: every buff SHE carries adds 5% DEF-ignore to her A2, stacking to 35%), and Searsha's SPD when floors are killing you before you act. Thorn Golem drops to the bench, which costs the lineup its dedicated control seat — Rhaia's AoE Stun is unresistable but only fires when her A2 KILLS, so re-seat Thorn Golem on any floor where reliable CC is the requirement.
- ›July 2026 (third batch): PANN THE BOWHORN joins the bench, not the five — Ayumilove 5★ Fire Knight (4★ FK Hard) and a 20% dungeon SPD aura, but this crypt already fields Rhaia, Searsha, Lady of Ireth, Mistrider Daithi and Wyrennon, and Kellan the Shrike is ahead of him for the damage bench. His RES-piercing clause (both damage skills ignore 50% of the target's RESISTANCE while he is faster than it) is a dungeon tool, not a crypt one. Sylvan is now the deepest faction on the account at 11 owned.
- ›RE-AUDITED 2026-09-01 against fresh HellHades ratings and FW-role data: ZERO seat changes. Faction Wars is faction-locked and the 2026-08-31 intake (The Cowardly Lion, Armanz, Artak, Starsage Galathir, Frolni, Dorothy Gale, Khamir Scald-Eye) placed champions in only seven factions — Barbarians, Skinwalkers, Dwarves, High Elves, Banner Lords, Orcs and Ogryn Tribes. This crypt receives nothing from it, and every seat re-derived unchanged.
