Actually cursed stygian.

This stygian is absolutely abysmal.

Menacing is the best I can do with my account, and just barely - I don't have Flins, Ineffa, Lauma, Nefer, Skirk, Escoffier, or Citlali. Pretty sure my account is cursed, I haven't won a 50/50 since 2024...

Compare to previous stygian where I could do fearless faster than this rotation...

First team clear is without beating shield check on first rotation too, my Mav's artifacts are pretty mid.

Dog - C0R0 Kaz, C2R0 Furina, C0R1 Mav, C1R0 Xilonen

Trooper - C0R0 Varesa, C2R1 Yae, C0R0 Columbina, C0R0 Yelan

Crab - C2R1 Neuv, C1R0 Xianyun, C3R1 (homa) Zhongli, C6 Mona.

If you have built chevreuse, can try overload comp on second boss.

Boss 1 is a much heavier lunar reaction check in my opinion. If you can trigger lunar on main boss, don’t have to worry about its spawns, just ignore them.

Boss 3 the crab takes a lot of damage if you can power wash all the small crab shields as well as big crab shield fast. So off field hydro chara like Furina is better there.

I do have a built C6 chevreuse, but I cannot defeat the dog on fearless at all, even using columbina (my only lunar reaction driver). The birds it spawns I can get to about 20% hp before they get consumed.

The shield of the shock trooper was actually harder to break on menacing than fearless, I found.

staryshine2026-01-23 06:45

Ah I see, yeah I did fearless. Forgot that some stages have different mechanics. Maybe the dog shield is harder as well.

tuataraaa2026-01-23 06:54

why are you running Xianyun with Neuvilette?..

I would understand the thought process if you ran Furina as well, but those 2 literally have 0 synergy

irllyshouldsleep2026-01-23 07:11

yea Sucrose would be better bc u get vapes so her em buff is good for the crab. Xianyun is just vv and nothing else for that team I'm pretty sure.

Anchre2026-01-23 11:06

Was too lazy to swap the team around - used to be furina instead of Mona, but I was still going to clear it in time so I never bothered with optimizing that. Zhongli and neuv could have cleared that chamber by themselves probably

Happy-Snow37282026-01-23 07:07

Wtf are these comps dawg?? Put lunar on boss 1 , furinw for neuv on boss 3 brute force boss 2

Anchre2026-01-23 11:12

Lunar wasn't beating the dps check on the shield, had to force it with Mav on the chickens

BlackTemplarKNB2026-01-23 07:14

Bro don't separate Neuvi and Furina, it's illegal

Anchre2026-01-23 11:13

Honestly more than Neuv on the crab at this difficulty is overkill

neuvvv2026-01-23 07:28

new valet plunge?! lmao

Anchre2026-01-23 11:11

Leftover from when I had furina instead of Mona, but needed furina for the dog.

BonusroosterJr2026-01-23 08:08

With these units you should certainly be able to do fearless

Anchre2026-01-23 11:13

Dog is proving impossible without at least ineffa

BonusroosterJr2026-01-23 23:29

Your mauvika team can definitely brute force it but it would take you learning mauvika combos and playing it relatively well

SecretSpectre112026-01-23 08:47

Yes it's abysmal but your teams are way worse

Mande1baum2026-01-23 09:00

Account is really only missing Citlali and a second Lunar 5-star. And for this SO specifically, either would make Fearless doable. That's hardly "cursed". You have 5 weeks to decide if you want to push for Ineffa or Zibai for meta and a single Dust.

Since Natlan, you should have been able to get about 10 limited 5-stars even if assuming you lost all 50:50s. Even if you only dedicate half those to meta, that's usually enough to keep up with Fearless.

Anchre2026-01-23 11:20

Yeah, I'm trying to get Ineffa before the banner is gone - I'm at 100% on all of the Nod-Krai zones and early Natlan. I would love Citlali for the Mavuika team, but probably going to skip the next rerun and save for Nicole.

I managed to pull 15 5-star characters over the last year, mostly at 80 pity. 2 capturing radiance amongst those, and zero 50-50s won.

Shahadem2026-01-23 09:06

What the heck is even that third team?

Neuvilette plunge? Neuvilette's kit is focused on constantly using charged attacks.

Anchre2026-01-23 11:40

For reference, running a proper-ish team on fearless crab (Neuv + Furina) gives me a 90s clear. Still can't do the dog no matter who I try - columbina does not do enough lunar damage to break the shield with my available units, and my mav team is just short of being able to kill the birds in a rotation.
