1. 7 FMB Alberich · Achilles · Zhao Yun
   Alberich (X18 · paid), Achilles (SP · paid) and Zhao Yun (X26) score 81.76 out of 100 together, and each of the three has a job.

   Alberich is the saboteur, stripping the enemy's stats before the blows land: strips 27% of enemy Might, Resistance and damage in total, and takes the front on purpose: this kit feeds on being attacked, and the front is where the attacks are. Achilles is the lifeline: that healing decides whether this lineup is still standing in round five — carries 500% of recovery across its kit, and sits in the middle, where the support reaches both the front and the back. Zhao Yun is the win condition, bringing 77% of the lineup's expected damage: Dragon Battles in the Wild puts 300% x2 into all enemy squads every time it fires, and stays in the back, out of the enemy's easy reach, and those range-5 skills lose nothing for it. The lineup works because Achilles produces combat-skill casts, the exact trigger Alberich’s Treasure Holder waits on; Achilles’s Blade of Judgment applies Silence and takes a squad out of the fight, so Zhao Yun swings into a line that cannot answer. What you give up: the trigger chain is thin — the three lean on one link rather than several; damage is spread across the enemy line rather than focused on one squad. How these scores work →
