Etheria Restart Best PvE Teams for Campaign and Boss Fights​​

Etheria Restart Artwork 8

For Etheria Restart PvE, most high‑performing teams follow the same pattern: 1–2 strong DPS, 1 support/DEF‑ unit, at least 1 sustain, plus a turn‑meter/control slot. Campaign squads lean toward flexible damage and sustain, while boss teams stack control and debuffs tuned to each fight.

Best campaign PvE teams

Guides and team databases agree that campaign teams should clear waves quickly while staying safe, built around a strong DPS core and Gray‑style support.

  • Lian / Xiada carry comp
    • Lian or Xiada (main DPS), Gray (crit buff + AoE DEF‑), Lingluo or Valerian (healer), plus Freya/Rilmocha/Helkid as flex DPS or extra sustain.
    • HellHades and LDPlayer both highlight Lian and Xiada as standout early carries, with Gray’s DEF‑ and team crit making them shred story waves even on modest gear.
  • Phoenix Harmony (Freya‑centric)
    • Freya (DPS/support), a secondary DPS like Lian or Rilmocha, one healer (Lingluo/Valerian), and one generic support (Gray, Lily, or Beyontin).
    • The “Phoenix Harmony Squad” is praised as a top all‑rounder for story because Freya brings cleansing, debuffs, and solid AoE, letting beginners lean on her kit while the rest of the roster is still weak.

Prydwen’s PvE tier list places units like Freya, Massiah, Xiada, and Lian near the top for generic PvE, and the teams database shows multiple starter campaign builds centered on those carries with Gray plus a healer.

Best generic boss teams (Terrormaton, Aurora, etc.)

Early‑game boss guides emphasise that Threshold bosses demand control, DEF‑, and strong sustained damage, not just raw burst.

  • Standard 5‑man boss core
    • 2 DPS (e.g., Lian/Xiada/Massiah), Gray or Kloss (DEF‑ and support), 1 sustain (Lingluo/Valerian/Helkid), and 1 control/TM unit (Chiaki, Lily, Cachi, Kloss).
    • HellHades’ Threshold section specifically recommends focusing on Terrormaton and DokiDoki with a mix of on‑element DPS and Light/Shadow “neutral” units like Lian plus strong shield or heal support.
  • Control‑heavy boss comp
    • Freya or Xiada (DPS), Gray (support), a control unit (Kraken/Obol/Kazuyo/Lily), a TM rotator (Chiaki/Kloss), and a healer if you run 5 slots.
    • The synergy guide describes control units as “non‑negotiable” for mechanics‑heavy bosses; they stop dangerous skills, extend debuffs, and give your DPS windows to burst safely.

Prydwen’s teams database lists multiple generic Terrormaton teams using this template: DEF‑ breaker (often Gray or Kloss), TM control (Kloss/Cachi), main DPS (Lian/Xiada), and sustain, with optional flex DPS in 5‑man variants.

Best specialised boss/farming teams

Once your account matures, some PvE teams focus on fast farming or specific bosses.

  • Speed farming team (Rengokutsu example)
    • Liliam (main DPS), Kloss (DEF‑ + speed control), Cachi (stuns + TM control), Lily (ATK buffer).
    • HellHades showcases this comp as a “speed farming” Rengokutsu team, balancing tempo, stun‑based control, and huge burst from Liliam to keep runs under a couple of minutes.
  • Xiada boss‑focused squads
    • Xiada core with Valerian (sustain), plus 2–3 supports/DPS like Gray, Lily, and other buffers or debuffers.
    • LDPlayer’s “Soul Flame Syndicate” and “Evolved Guardian Group” Xiada teams are built around her scaling DPS and DEF‑ over long fights, with Valerian providing invincibility and HP equalisation to survive tough thresholds.

Tier‑list overviews and late‑game PvE lists consistently mark Liliam, Xiada, Massiah, and Freya as some of the strongest PvE units, and real team examples plug them into the same skeleton: DEF‑ + buffs + sustain + some form of turn control.​

Simple templates you can copy

Across HellHades, Prydwen, and community posts, most recommended PvE teams boil down to a few reusable templates.

  • Campaign template: 1 main DPS (Lian/Xiada/Freya), Gray or Lily as support/DEF‑, 1 healer (Lingluo/Valerian), plus 1 flex DPS or utility.
  • Generic boss template: 2 DPS, 1 DEF‑/support (Gray/Kloss), 1 healer/shield (Lingluo/Helkid/Valerian), 1 TM/control (Chiaki/Cachi/Lily).
  • Speed‑farm template: 1 busted DPS (Liliam/Rilmocha/Xiada), 1 DEF‑/support, 1 TM controller, 1 extra support or DPS tuned to the dungeon.

Using these shells, you can swap in your own best units by role and element while still following the proven PvE structure seen in top guides and team databases.
