1. 12 FMB Warden · Eselfred · Ashen Verdict Mid progression Beats 0 of 8 reference lineups 81.98/100 out of 100 ⇗
   Warden (X06), Eselfred (X14) and Ashen Verdict (X05) score 81.98 out of 100 together, and each of the three has a job.

   Warden is the multiplier, raising what the other two put out rather than adding a number of its own: carries 65% of damage amplification across its kit, and takes the front as the one built to survive the opening exchange. Eselfred is the win condition, bringing 69% of the lineup's expected damage: Lady of the Mercians puts 522% into one enemy squad on a 65% roll, and sits in the middle, where the support reaches both the front and the back. Ashen Verdict is the lock: every squad silenced or suppressed is a turn the enemy plan does not happen — Righteous Fervor applies Disarm on a 35% roll, 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 Warden’s Aspect of the Eagle produces trigger-rate boosts, the exact trigger Ashen Verdict’s Righteous Fervor and Eselfred’s Thunder and Heavy Arrows both wait on; Warden’s Aspect of the Tiger produces extra basic attacks, the exact trigger Ashen Verdict waits on; Ashen Verdict’s Righteous Fervor applies Disarm and takes a squad out of the fight, so Eselfred swings into a line that cannot answer. What you give up: little here disrupts the enemy plan, so the fight is decided on raw output; a mid-era lineup anchored by Warden (X06). Budget note: every hero in this lineup can be completed without spending.

2. 33 FMB Eidolon · Ashen Verdict · Spectral Reaper developer pick Mid progression Beats 0 of 8 reference lineups 56.94/100 out of 100 ⇗
   Eidolon (X07), Ashen Verdict (X05) and Spectral Reaper (X03) score 56.94 out of 100 together, and each of the three has a job.

   Eidolon is the multiplier, raising what the other two put out rather than adding a number of its own: carries 140% of damage amplification across its kit, and takes the front on purpose: this kit feeds on being attacked, and the front is where the attacks are. Ashen Verdict is the lock: every squad silenced or suppressed is a turn the enemy plan does not happen — Righteous Fervor applies Disarm on a 35% roll, and sits in the middle, where the support reaches both the front and the back. Spectral Reaper is the win condition, bringing 42% of the lineup's expected damage: Tamashi-kusari puts 742% into one enemy squad on a 35% roll, and stays in the back, out of the enemy's easy reach, and those range-4 skills lose nothing for it. The lineup works because Ashen Verdict’s Righteous Fervor applies Disarm and takes a squad out of the fight, so Spectral Reaper swings into a line that cannot answer; Spectral Reaper shuts off enemy recovery, so what Spectral Reaper deals stays dealt; Eidolon raises Spectral Reaper’s output directly rather than adding a number of its own. What you give up: no hero here feeds another one's trigger; no one hero clearly carries, so the damage is easier to interrupt. Budget note: every hero in this lineup can be completed without spending. This is one of the lineups recommended in-game by the developers -- the score above is what that classic core is still worth against the current roster.

   Ramses II (SP · paid), Ashen Verdict (X05) and Spectral Reaper (X03) score 72.28 out of 100 together, and each of the three has a job.

   Ramses II is the lifeline: that healing decides whether this lineup is still standing in round five — carries 238% of recovery across its kit, and takes the front, able to both absorb the opening rounds and heal through them. Ashen Verdict is the lock: every squad silenced or suppressed is a turn the enemy plan does not happen — Righteous Fervor applies Disarm on a 35% roll, and sits in the middle, where the support reaches both the front and the back. Spectral Reaper is the win condition, bringing 54% of the lineup's expected damage: Tamashi-kusari puts 742% into one enemy squad on a 35% roll, and stays in the back, out of the enemy's easy reach, and those range-4 skills lose nothing for it. The lineup works because Ramses II’s Peace of Silver Plate produces extra basic attacks, the exact trigger Ashen Verdict and Spectral Reaper both wait on; Ashen Verdict’s Righteous Fervor applies Disarm and takes a squad out of the fight, so Spectral Reaper swings into a line that cannot answer; Spectral Reaper shuts off enemy recovery, so what Spectral Reaper deals stays dealt. What you give up: Spectral Reaper (X03) is the era weak point -- the enemy will aim at the oldest squad; raw damage reaches only about 12% of the hardest-hitting trio in the roster. This is one of the lineups recommended in-game by the developers -- the score above is what that classic core is still worth against the current roster.

Lilith adds a second source of control, so the lock rarely has an off round: Infatuated Shadow applies Confuse on a 50% roll, 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 Warden’s Aspect of the Eagle produces trigger-rate boosts, the exact trigger Ashen Verdict’s Righteous Fervor and Lilith’s Poison Needle both wait on; Ashen Verdict produces control effects, the exact trigger Lilith’s Pandora's Box waits on; Ashen Verdict’s Righteous Fervor applies Disarm and takes a squad out of the fight, so Lilith swings into a line that cannot answer.
