Guide - Union Raid #44
Hello everyone! Welcome to the second edition of this guide, for UR44! Each Boss will have basic information about them listed, as well as some tips, tricks and warnings to be wary of. Of course, it also includes the suggested meta teams that top-ranking unions use!
A high-sync player is considered someone above sync 641.
Players between 501 and 641 will constantly feel the difficulty of bosses getting easier and easier.
A lower sync player is considered someone below sync 501.
This guide targets players and unions who intend to be competitive in Union Raid.
Laitance
Element | Weakness | Healing Needed? | Difficulty |
Covering can help reduce damage. Low syncs might need a healer. | Medium for low syncs, but really easy the higher your sync level goes. |
Tips to minimise need for healing and maximise damage:
Roughly at the following timings, Laitance shoots a special charge time debuffing laser:: 1:10, 0:25. 0:15. Cover your units from this! Shield does not work, you have to cover.
Cover as much as you can to avoid remaining laser damage if the damage hurts.
Teams
Main teams
One of the strongest options for the upcoming raid should be:
You may replace
Rapi: Red Hood with
Raven ,
Eve , or
Marciana: Marine Study if you plan to use Rapi on fire, or if you want to use Rapi as B1 to save
Anis: Star /
Siren for other elements.
A weaker iron team to save
Crown for other elements is:
Iron Sub T1
Mode: Union / Solo Raids || Element: Iron
Characters
About the team
-
Substitutions
Centi (Treasure) may be replaced with Helm: Aquamarine. Bunny Ade may be replaced with Nayuta.or Crown if you only want to add Liter instead. Liter may be replaced by RapiRH B1 or Moran (Treasure) Rapi: Red Hood may be replaced for other Iron B3 DPS units like Raven.
Example Multi-hits
Tombstone
Element | Weakness | Healing Needed? | Difficulty |
No | Easy |
Tips to minimise need for healing and maximise damage:
Just try your best to kill the raptures as fast as possible, then focus on the boss.
The boss will not take damage if mobs are on the screen.
Teams
Note: There is only one great team for Water this time, since
Snow White: Heavy Arms can help clear the mobs fast. All other teams will have a harder time dealing high damage.
Main teams
Crown is ideally used against Water bosses:
Main Team V1 Water
Mode: Union / Solo Raids || Element: Water
Characters
About the team
Crown is ideally used against Chatterbox or Material H, since her shields can help against the numerous jumps CB makes. Hence, players may use this team.
Substitutions
Siren or AnisS can also be a viable option for B1 if more damage is needed. However, Liter/Moran can perform at almost the same level as Siren on Water for most players.
Summer Elegg may be replaced by Maid Mast.
Helm may be used over Privaty(Treasure) or Elegg/MMast if healing is required or if a unit is not built/needed elsewhere.
xLudmilla is a very strong option for Water bosses with core, where she may be used over SElegg or MMast if she is built, or even Privaty(Treasure) if she is not built.
Siren or
Anis: Star can also be a viable option for B1 if more damage is needed.
Alternate teams for saving
Crown include using
Nayuta or
Ade: Agent Bunny over Crown, but it is ideal to have
Elegg: Boom and Shock skilled up and OLed for these teams rather than the option we have with Crown to use
Mast: Romantic Maid :
Main Team Alternate Water
Mode: Union / Solo Raids || Element: Water
Characters
About the team
Alternate teams for saving Crown include using Nayuta or Bunny Ade over Crown, but it is ideal to have Elegg skilled up and OLed for these teams rather than the option we have with Crown to use MMast.
B1-CDR options: Anis: Star, Siren, Liter, Moran-Treasure.
Substitutions
Summer Elegg may be replaced by Maid Mast.
Bunny Ade may be replaced with Nayuta.
Helm may be used over Privaty(Treasure) or Elegg/MMast if healing is required or if a unit is not built/needed elsewhere.
xLudmilla is a very strong option for Water bosses with core, where she may be used over SElegg or MMast if she is built, or even Privaty(Treasure) if she is not built.
There is not much flexibility in Water overall, because the good units are a level apart from the bad units, so if players aim for 3 teams, they will find most players opting for a similar setup to:anis
Modernia
Element | Weakness | Healing Needed? | Difficulty |
Can survive without much healing if players can break shield | Medium for lower syncs |
Tips to minimise need for healing and maximise damage:
Skip the starting cutscene when the Modernia head shows to make your units auto-aim at the core.
Break parts as soon as possible, especially the core. Very important.
The highest ATK Nikke will be targeted by the boss, so take care of whoever she is by covering.
Do QTEs as soon as possible!
Shoot down missiles and bombs, or i-frame dodge them by covering when they are about to hit you.
Visual cues and tips are helpful (we intend to add more and more to this guide as time progresses), so watch videos of players attempting tries against Modernia for Museum, to reduce damage taken, like the following video:
If this is not enough for your team to survive, just use a team with a healer, such as Helm(Treasure).
Teams
The higher your sync is, the lower your
Alice will deal due to parts being relatively weaker to your damage.
It is important to note that for Fire-Weak, the meta teams involve limited units, especially
Brid: Silent Track . If you do not have her, you may replace xBrid with another B2 like
Crown ,
Nayuta or
Ade: Agent Bunny , but it is crucial to note that Fire-Weak UR has a critical need for XBrid.
Main Team
This UR,
Rapi: Red Hood is better used on Iron, since one of the Rapi-less fire teams can actually perform quite well on this boss:
If you are saving
Mast: Romantic Maid for Wind, you may use this team:
Main Team Rapiless
Mode: Union / Solo Raids || Element: Fire
Unions often feel the need to double or even triple-hit fire bosses, in which case there are a lot of variations players can try, such as:
Example Double hits:
Double Fire 1
Mode: Union / Solo Raids || Element: Fire
Characters
About the team
It is ideal to mock with different subsitutions to find what is best for your account. Your investments can help guide you to what would be the best option for a double hit.
Substitutions
Rei Ayanami can be replaced with Alice or a buffer for RapiRH such as Maid Mast, or even Mihara: Bonding Chain - consequently replacing Mihara in the next team with another unit.
Privaty Treasure may be replaced by Maid Mast.
Double Fire 2
Mode: Union / Solo Raids || Element: Fire
Characters
About the team
It is ideal to mock with different subsitutions to find what is best for your account. Your investments can help guide you to what would be the best option for a double hit.
Substitutions
Helm-treasure may be replaced by an invested Alice, Rei Ayanami, Maid Mast, a DPS like Summer Cinderella or Snow White: Heavy Arms, or another damage buffer.
After the release of the recent fire collab duo, players may also try:
Example Triple hit:
The ideal triple hit includes:
Rebuild Stout
Element | Weakness | Healing Needed? | Difficulty |
Yes, unless high sync level. However, Nayuta exists. | Very Easy |
Tips to minimise need for healing and maximise damage:
Shoot down the head part either before or after the shield pops up. RL units help a lot in this regard.
Use a shielder unit, like Crown, and/or i-frame dodge the green flashbang stuns.
If you still cannot break the shield, it might be time to either rethink your team or strategy, or shoot the leg.
Teams
Main teams
Most Common UR Team - Electric
Mode: Union / Solo Raids || Element: Electric
Characters
About the team
One of the most commonly used teams in top unions.
Substitutions
Crown may be replaced by Nayuta.
Maid Mast may be replaced by Privaty, Summer Anis, or Winter Maiden.
Anis: Star may be replaced by another B1-CDR, such as Moran-Treasure, but the burst generation needs to be covered by a nikke in off burst slot Nikke now, such as Helm-Treasure.
Alternate Best UR Team - Electric
Mode: Union / Solo Raids || Element: Electric
If only one of Neon or Cindy is built:
If players are trying to save Crown and Nayuta both, they may opt for:
Or, if a weak electric hit is needed, players may also aim to save AnisS with this team.
Old Meta OR Saving Anis Star
Mode: Union / Solo Raids || Element: Electric
It is ideal to avoid double/triple hitting on Rebuild Stout this UR. However, if some players face such a situation, they may try to use the following teams:
Example Double Hits:
Alternate Best UR Team - Electric
Mode: Union / Solo Raids || Element: Electric
And choosing between the following two teams for your second hit:
OR, the higher damage variant vs core bosses:
Example Triple Hits:
Alternate Best UR Team - Electric
Mode: Union / Solo Raids || Element: Electric
For the remaining two teams, players can choose between one of the two sets depending on what team they chose for their Double hit:
OR
Annihilio
Element | Weakness | Healing Needed? | Difficulty |
Yes, unless high sync level. However, Nayuta exists. | Medium |
Wind-Weak, the simplest to understand meta. Everyone should already have the main team built up, since we all love Kraken after all, do we not?
Tips to minimise need for healing and maximise damage:
Break parts in the beginning to avoid shield spawn.
Break parts as soon as possible anyways.
Do QTEs as soon as possible.
Gun down turrets if they hurt.
Elemental QTE timers can feel fast, so be faster!
ORB QTE: Check colour in center, and hit those colours of orbs.
Nayuta should be enough to take care of healing against this boss. If she isn’t, try covering from some of the boss attacks when a Nikke is low.
Scarlet: Black Shadow should reduce the number of Lasers the boss hits. Usually, all teams used for this boss either have Shield or Heals.
As always, videos are a good source of learning as well, especially for Boss 5s. Here is another video by skyjlv from the recent Annihilio Solo Raid:
Teams
Just like
Brid: Silent Track in Fire,
Nayuta is considered a crucial B2 for UR meta for Wind Weak Bossing. It is an even more serious and drastic scenario in Nayuta’s case since her DPS is irreplaceable.
Main Team
The Obvious Wind Team
Mode: Union / Solo Raids || Element: Wind
Characters
About the team
Replacing Siren with Liter/Moran for less damage is often a trick used by unions to save Siren for other bosses where more damage is required, since Wind is usually a commonly built element for players and almost everyone is able to deal good damage to it.
Substitutions
Velvet may be replaced by Maid Mast.
Siren may be replaced by Liter/Moran or Siren.
Example Double hit:
Double Hit T2 Wind
Mode: Union / Solo Raids || Element: Wind
Characters
About the team
There is a reload trrick to Asuka: Wille where you reload yourself before the end of the burst, which can substantially increase her damage.
Substitutions
Rei Ayanami may be replaced by another invested wind DPS like Black Ark Ranger or Laplace: Ultimate Hero, or with an alternate buffer, or with a common high tier DPS like Cinderella: Crystal Wave or Snow White: Heavy Arms.
Example Triple hit:
Triple Hit T2 Wind
Mode: Union / Solo Raids || Element: Wind
New Wind Team 3
Even though she was just released, she can fare well here. You can try using the new Matis team 3:
This allows you to use the Double hit split for first 2 teams, which results in higher damage!
