1. 21 FMB Warden · Darius · Frederick I
   Warden (X06), Darius (X13) and Frederick I (X16) score 77.92 out of 100 together, and each of the three has a job.

   Warden is the shield: the damage reduction and staying power buy the rounds the plan needs — carries 116% of damage reduction across its kit, and takes the front as the one built to survive the opening exchange. Darius brings a second damage line worth 29% of the expected output, so no single silence stops the plan: Disdain puts 332% into 2 enemy squads on a 40% roll, and sits in the middle, where the support reaches both the front and the back. Frederick I is the win condition, bringing 66% of the lineup's expected damage: Eagle on Fire puts 365% into 2 enemy squads on a 70% 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 Darius and Frederick I both wait on; Darius produces combat-skill casts, the exact trigger Frederick I’s Frenzy War waits on; Warden raises Frederick I’s output directly rather than adding a number of its own. What you give up: Warden (X06) is the era weak point -- the enemy will aim at the oldest squad; raw damage reaches only about 36% of the hardest-hitting trio in the roster. Budget note: every hero in this lineup can be completed without spending. How these scores work →
