Kit Analysis

Strengths

  • Limited to single-target content
  • High energy cost on Ultimate

Team Compositions

BiS Team

Tangtang massively boosts Last Rite with her Cryo Inflictions and Arts Susceptibility. Even better if you own Brigand's Calling as it adds a Arts DMG Taken% on enemies. She also benefits from both Xaihi and Perlica buffs to deal considerable damage (~27%) and fill the gaps while Last Rite build Cryo Infliction stacks on enemies.

F2P Last Rite Team

Last Rite is already very efficient at applying Cryo Inflictions with her Battle Skill, so the rest of the team can be used for support. Xaihi Amps with her Ultimate, heals, and applies Cryo Infliction. Ardelia provides Arts Susceptibility, can hold Eternal Xiranite and even more healing. Akekuri is great for SP Generation, hold Thermite Cutter and apply Link with her Ultimate.

Yvonne Team

Last Rite is a great teammate for Yvonne, but not vice versa. If you want Last Rite to deal the most damage, you do not want Yvonne. But you can enable your Yvonne with Last Rite's Cryo application.
