Grave of Venom is the main source of damage output equipment, and it puts the survivability of your tanks to the test.
In this article, we'll walk you through the more easily accessible rare/epic hero lineups, aiming at guiding you to clear the stage on difficulty #9.
Meanwhile, we'll give you a legendary hero lineup for reference, which you can use for efficient auto-combat.
I. About The Boss
II. Stage Clearing Configuration
[Recommended Level and Equipment]● Recommended Level
It is recommended that your team reaches level 90 overall. When clearing early-game stages, prioritize developing your tanks.
● Equipment Requirements
This stage requires you to have well-developed tanks. You should do your best to give the legendary Tundra Tenacity set at max Refinements (+20) to your DPS heroes.
Other heroes have relatively lower equipment requirements, only needing to meet key attribute thresholds.
If you have mythic equipment with the right attributes, such as Energy Harvester, Precise Carnage Gauntlets, or Moonlight Battle Robes, it's highly recommended to equip them for this stage.
Key Attribute Reference1. Ideally, the average HP of your heroes should be over 35,000.
2. Your main tank should have over 70,000 HP and over 2,500 DEF.
3. Heroes responsible for applying debuffs should have more than 220 Accuracy.
III. Recommended Lineups
Lineup 1
Lineup: Frurbath + Sigrid + Heksandra + Rava + Usha
Positioning Reference:
Description: This focuses on the Poison and Ice Elemental Affinities in season 3.
Frurbath provides over-time AoE healing for the team, but due to the lack of means to protect himself, he will need enough survival attributes if he wants to be a tank. If your Frurbath is highly developed, Heksandra can be replaced with another damage output hero to clear stages faster. If he isn't insufficient developed, Heksandra can be replaced with Garett to take Frurbath's place as the main tank.
Frurbath and Sigrid take turns to use their ultimate skills, keeping enemies inflicted with Attack Penalty. Since Sigrid's ultimate skill targets all enemies inflicted with debuffs, it's recommended to use it after Rava applies Frost.
It's important to note that since the boss will immediately remove one debuff from all enemies after using its first skill, your debuff-inflicting ultimate skills should be used after the boss's first skill is used.
Heksandra's ultimate skill serves as an emergency measure, providing instant high AoE healing to prevent allies from dying.
Rava can inflict Frost on enemies. With her ultimate skill causing multiple damage instances over a large area, it's very suitable to wear Witch's Remains to apply Defense Penalty to the enemy.
Usha prioritizes using her ultimate skill to deal with the two wraiths in front of her, ensuring Frurbath is always in a position to heal all allies.
Recommended Legendary Hero Substitutes
Lineup 2
Lineup: Garius + Isolde + Dane + Lyle + Zlaxis
Positioning Reference:
Description: This focuses on the Radiance and Fire Elemental Affinities in season 3, requiring a highly developed Garius. If the backline heroes have low development progress and cannot withstand AoE damage, any damage dealer can be replaced with Catherine to supplement healing.
Garius acts as the tank absorbing damage while also providing high AoE healing for allies.
Isolde and Dane take turns to use their ultimate skills, keeping enemies inflicted with Attack Penalty. Since Isolde also reduces damage received by allies shielded by her, it's more recommended to use it before the boss's third skill to ensure Garius's survival.
It's important to note that since the boss will immediately remove one debuff from all enemies after using its first skill, your debuff-inflicting ultimate skills should be used after the boss's first skill is used.
Lyle and Zlaxis are two excellent epic damage dealers for your Burn build, capable of delivering considerable AoE damage while applying Burn to enemies, lowering the assistance probability of wraiths, thereby alleviating the tank's damage absorption pressure.
Recommended Legendary Hero Substitutes
Lineup 3
Lineup: Volthug + Estella + Iola + Manda + Hirvolm
Positioning Reference:
Description: This focuses on the Lightning and Necrosis Elemental Affinities in season 3, requiring a highly developed Volthug. If the backline heroes have low development progress and cannot withstand AoE damage, any damage dealer can be replaced with Meggan to supplement healing.
Volthug's exceptional survivability allows him to tank most of the boss's damage, and taking turns to use ultimate skills with Iola can keep the enemy inflicted with Attack Penalty most of the time.
Estella can provide healing for the team and use her battle skill to grant Volthug a Defense Up bonus, further enhancing his survivability.
Since Volthug's ultimate skill's Attack Penalty effect is less significant than Iola's, it's more recommended to use Iola's ultimate skill before the boss's third skill to ensure Volthug's survival.
It's important to note that since the boss will immediately remove one debuff from all enemies after using its first skill, your debuff-inflicting ultimate skills should be used after the boss's first skill is used.
Manda and Hirvolm are two excellent epic damage dealers for your Lightning build, capable of delivering considerable AoE damage while applying Burn to enemies, lowering the assistance probability of wraiths, thereby alleviating the tank's damage absorption pressure.

IV. Examples
*Using Lineup 1 as an example.
● Team Aura
Here, Frurbath's DEF Aura is chosen to allow more rooms for mistakes, and this way, you won't have to have well-developed heroes to clear early-game stages.
● Equipment
Description: If your equipment quality is low, it's recommended to choose more DEF% or HP% equipment for the backline heroes. This stage doesn't require you to deal too much damage, so prioritizing team survival is key.
● Food Improvement
When your team is not fully fledged, your heroes will have trouble surviving, so we recommend you use [Aquitaine Meat Pie], which is made of Elf Wheat ×2 and Wild Boar Meat ×1. It can give you +10% HP and +5% ATK for 600 seconds.
● Stage Clearing Tips
1. Begin applying debuffs to the enemy after the boss uses its first skill to avoid them from being dispelled too quickly.
2. Since Rava's ultimate skill causes damage over time, it can easily trigger the Witch's Remains or the Crown of the Unclean's Artifact effect, applying a Defense Penalty to enemies. Once the enemies are inflicted with Defense Penalty, you can then use Usha's ultimate skill to boost damage output.
3. Sigrid's ultimate skill can target all enemies inflicted with debuffs, so it's best to use it while enemies are still inflicted with Frost by Rava or the Attack Penalty by Frurbath.
4. Frurbath and Sigrid taking turns to use their ultimate skills can keep the boss inflicted with Attack Penalty for a long time. If Frurbath fails to apply a debuff due to lack of Accuracy, Sigrid should try and inflict Attack Penalty right before the boss's second skill.
5. When you are about to lose allies, use the Control Skill to grant shields to all allies.
V. High-end Auto-combat Lineup Rec
 『推薦陣容』
Recommended Lineup
Lineup: Acilia + Rose + Elminster + Karf + Aschetius
Positioning Reference:
● Team Aura
Here, Aschetius uses an Attack Aura, which can increase the ATK of all your heroes by 30% in this stage, allowing you to clear faster.
● Sample Lineup
This lineup is an advanced version of lineup 1 for clearing early-game stages. Since Synarell does not apply Invincibility from his ultimate skill to Acilia during auto-combat, Elminster, who can provide Attack Penalty and AoE Shield, will be more useful in auto-combat.
● Skill Timing
There's no need for anything else other than taking turns to use the ultimate skills of Rose and Elminster, and try to avoid the boss's second skill's debuff removal effect as much as possible,
Rose's battle skill makes the boss recharge more slowly, which can lead to you using skills at the wrong time during auto-combat.
However, given the ample output from Karf and Aschetius, battles usually end quickly, so there's nothing to worry about.
Refer to the setup as shown in the image, and adjust your lineup according to your heroes' skill level and Skill Haste.
[Configurations]
● Recommended Level
It's recommended to prioritize leveling up Acilia after the team reaches level 90 and a breakthrough.
● Key Attributes
Acilia HP > 70,000, DEF > 2,500.
All of the deployed heroes should have over 35,000 HP and over 1,500 DEF.
Elminster, Rose, and Karf Accuracy > 220.
● Equipment
Description: If Acilia is under significant survival pressure, the Artifact can be switched to Dargo's Blast Jar, and the equipment can be replaced with the Tundra Tenacity set.
