Fire Knight's Castle — Fyro

Swaps

• Dorothy GaleS

  NOT A SHIELD-BREAKER (audit 2026-09-01). HH 9/10, but on a fight decided by hits per rotation she is near the bottom of the useful range: A1 is single-target single-hit, A2 does not attack at all, and A3 is on a 6-turn cooldown. Suggested rating: 3.

• Armanz the MagnificentM

  NOT A SHIELD-BREAKER (audit 2026-09-01). HH 9/10 normal but only 4/10 HARD, and the hard number is the honest one for this fight: his A1 is single-hit and Turn Meter theft is blocked entirely while Divine Shield is up, so he contributes almost nothing to the break. Suggested rating: 3.

• Khamir Scald-EyeM

  THE HARD-MODE MAX-HP ANSWER (new 2026-09-01). Hard mode destroys 1% of the attacker's MAX HP per shield hit, which is what makes a 21-hit shield punishing rather than merely slow — and Khamir's A1 restores all allies' destroyed MAX HP by 5% per hit, twice per turn, on no cooldown. He is the reason the counterattack-heavy hard comp is survivable. 6★ BUILT, HH 7/10 hard. On NORMAL he is not a seat: his A1 is only 2 hits and he is Magic, which weak-hits the FK20 Force boss.

• The Cowardly LionM

  SEATED IN TEAM IDEAL AND IN THE NEW HARD-MODE COMP (audit 2026-09-01). THIS IS HIS BEST CONTENT IN THE GAME: HH 10/10 Fire Knight and 10/10 Fire Knight Hard, and the only major content where his kit is not gutted by immunities — Fyro's debuff immunity lasts only while Divine Shield is up. 3-hit A1, a 4×DEF AoE with a team 60% Increase DEF buff, and A3's team [Counterattack] + 30% [Reflect Damage], which this record already prices at up to 4 extra shield hits per boss AoE. 5★, queue #1, no gear plan authored — worth writing one.

• DemythaV

  NEW 2026-08-10 — HH 9/10 Fire Knight. Not a shield-breaker (A1 is 2 hits) but the best owned answer to the failure case: if Fyro DOES get a turn, Searing Storm destroys MAX HP by 15% of damage dealt, and her A3 puts [Block Damage] on the whole team, which blanks it outright. A2 also cuts every ally debuff duration by 1 and heals off how many durations it moved. Sustain-anchor alternative to Vogoth on a Void body, but her build is claimed by the Clan Boss unkillable comp, where she is 6★ BUILT and seated, and this team's plan is to deny Fyro turns rather than survive them.

• ColdheartV

  NEW 2026-08-10, three copies — HH 10/10 Fire Knight, joint-highest owned. A1 Flurry of Arrows attacks FOUR times at random, which is the single best shield-breaking skill on the roster, and each of those four hits rolls a 100% [Heal Reduction] at 25% (35% booked) — the debuff this fight calls non-optional, because Fyro heals AND fully regenerates the shield every turn he takes. Once the shield is down, A3 Heartseeker FULLY depletes his Turn Meter and scales its damage off his MAX HP. Void, so neutral into the Force FK20 boss. First sub for any seat rather than a seat holder: A1 hits are already surplus (14 vs 10 needed) and Heal Red is already double-covered. Caveats: her poisons and the A2 Dec ACC do nothing through the shield, and her HP/DEF are paper — she needs the team alive around her.

• AlureM

  THE seat on non-Force FK stages and 21–25: bookless 25%-per-crit TM cuts ×3 hits (crit-gated — needs 100% C.RATE); st.21/25 are Spirit bosses so her Magic hits strong, and she's HellHades' 21–25 MVP even with TM cuts halved there. Benched for FK20 only because she is Magic into a Force boss. 6★ BUILT.

• High KhatunS

  The old tempo seat — swap back in for Alure on stages where the team is too slow to cycle A1s between boss turns. Pure tempo: her A1 is single-hit, so she adds ~nothing to the break itself (Ayumi FK 2★).

• UrticataS

  FK 5 (HH 9/10, blessing rec literally labeled Fire Knight): 2/3/4-hit kit chews the shield (9 hits/rotation) and the 15% SPD aura speeds the whole rotation. HH FK Hard: 1/10 — normal-mode seat only.

• Stag KnightS

  AoE 60% Dec DEF + 50% Dec ATK payload once shield is down; Spirit edge on FK20 — but only 2-hit A1, so he rides on others' breaks

• Baerdal FellhammerV

  A1 2-hit (30%/hit 100% Heal Red) + A2 3-hit + perpetual self-Counter passive — HH calls him a Fire Knight specialist

• Gala LongbraidsV

  2+3 ignore-DEF hits, pure breaker/damage

• Acolyte of the SlitherS

  Apothecary-plus tempo AND 3-hit A1 TM-reduction — swap for Khatun once starred up

• Skimfos the ConsumedV

  FK 5★ per his own record — A2 pulls ally debuffs onto himself + 50% Dec ATK; his Twisted passive heals 5% max HP per debuff each turn (transfer-and-heal sustain); Void = no weak hits.

• SkullcrusherF

  FK 5★ — A2 Counterattack + Ally Protection on all allies but himself (+ self-Unkillable): every boss AoE = up to 4 counter-hits into the shield from the multi-hit A1s. Queue #28

• Sir ArtimageF

  FK 5★ — A1 double-hit breaker; A2 self-cleanse sheds FK debuff spam before AoEing.

• Varkos HeadsplitterF

  FK 5★ (6★ built) — self-Counterattack via A3, and counters swing 3 hits instead of 2 (A1 rider); A2 auto-joins ally attacks. (His A2 ignores [Shield] BUFFS — that does NOT bypass the boss's hit-counter shield.)

• GeomancerF

  6★ FK 5★ — A3 fully drains the boss's TM into his own (huge post-break) + 75% HP Burn; A1 is a single-hit AoE, so he contributes almost nothing to the break itself (his record's caveat). Burn only ticks if Fyro gets turns — it does not damage through the shield.

• LightswornV

  6★ FK 5★ — A1 3-hit with TM cuts (real shield-break seat), plus Inc DEF + Dec ATK anchor if Vogoth is parked at Hydra.

• GladewulfV

  3-hit A1 extra breaker; A3 adds self-Counter + 50% Ally Protection.

• Morag BronzelockS

  Conditional counters only: her passive counterattacks while she's under her OWN A2 Strengthen (4T CD) — spottier than Skullcrusher/Baerdal. A1 2-hit.

• Supreme KaelV

  NEW Legendary (6★ built) — FK 5★: Void = no weak-hit crit suppression (unlike Alure). His unresistible AoE poisons (75% roll) only pay off when the boss gets turns — bring him for hits + damage, not DoTs. FK Hard only 2★.

• Gliseah SoulguideF

  The FK HARD tech (6★ built): Tainted Fyro ignores normal TM control, but every Freeze placed insta-pops for −15% boss TM — her A3 75% AoE Freeze is the only TM lever the roster has there.

• Royal GuardM

  HH 10/10 FK but AYUMILOVE SAYS 3★ and the kit backs Ayumi for the break: A1 is SINGLE-target single-hit — the 4× random hits (60% Dec SPD + 25% TM cut per hit) sit on his A3's 5-turn cooldown, and A2's 10%-of-MAX-HP AoE is real damage once the shield is down. A burst/payload swap, not an A1-cycle breaker. Magic body: strongest on stages 21/25 (Spirit) and the non-Force rotations. Source conflict flagged 2026-07-27.

• Fodbor the BardS

  HH 10/10 + Ayumi FK 5★: triple-hit A1 — but its Heal Reduction rider is only a 15% CHANCE per hit (Ayumilove, 2026-07-27), so he cannot carry the Heal Red uptime; treat it as a bonus, not the seat's job. AoE 60% Dec DEF payload + 80% two-buff steal. Spirit — hits STRONG into FK20. First offensive swap for Hilda.

• WuzgarS

  HH 9/10 (Ayumi 5★): FOUR shield hits on his A1, the most per turn of any owned body, and each hit heals the lowest-HP ally. A3 gives the team 30% Reflect + a Shield worth 20% of his MAX HP, and his passive restores destroyed MAX HP at 30% of every heal — the direct answer to Searing Storm and the st.21–25 sustain tech alternative to Vogoth. Spirit — strong into FK20.

• ArndulfM

  NEW — HH 9/10: AoE 25% Weaken at 75% base amplifies everything the team lands post-break, plus team Reflect Damage and self-Counterattack (counters are extra shield hits). Single-hit A1, so he rides on others' breaks.

• Fahrakin the FatS

  NEW — HH 10/10: 60% Dec DEF on A1 and HP Burn + double Poison on A2. His DoTs do nothing through the shield, so he is a post-break payload seat, not a breaker. Spirit — strong into FK20.

• GoryS

  NEW — ignores [Increase DEF] and [Shield] BUFFS and 50% of DEF against Frozen targets, plus a passive counterattack whenever an ally is CC'd. Note the same caveat as Varkos: ignoring Shield BUFFS does not bypass Fyro's hit-counter shield.

• Rhaia the MournedV

  NEW 6★ Legendary — HH 9/10 Fire Knight. A1 is 2 hits and A2 is 2 hits, so she contributes 4 shield hits per rotation while ignoring up to 35% DEF; Void means no weak-hit crit suppression on the FK20 Force boss, unlike Alure.

• ShirimaniF

  NEW Legendary — the FK HARD tech seat, and the roster's SECOND source for it: Tainted Fyro ignores normal TM control, but every Freeze placed insta-pops for −15% boss TM, and Gliseah was previously the only owned body that could do it. Shirimani's A3 is an 80% AoE Freeze. Ayumilove rates her 5★ on normal Fire Knight too; Force is neutral into the FK20 boss.

• Miscreated MonsterM

  NEW — Ayumilove 5★ Fire Knight, HH 8/10: his A1 is a double hit (shield stacks) and his A2 AoE both Stuns and shields the team. Magic body, so he is neutral-to-weak into the FK20 Force boss — strongest on the Spirit stages 21/25.

• Pann the BowhornF

  NEW — Ayumilove 5★ Fire Knight and 4★ FK HARD (its listed usability is literally 'Fire Knight Hard'). The reason he holds up on the hard ladder: both his A1 and A3 ignore 50% of the target's RESISTANCE whenever he is faster than the target, so the boss's climbing RES stops gating his debuffs — build SPD as a debuff stat. A1 is 2 hits and A3 is 3, so he contributes 5 shield hits per rotation, and his 20% dungeon SPD aura speeds the whole team's A1 cycle.
