Understanding Rift Beasts#

Rift Beasts are some of the toughest PvE content in Summoners War. They aren’t your everyday dungeons; these powerful entities require strategy and specialized teams to conquer. Ready to dive in? Let’s break down everything you need to know about Rift Beasts.

What Are Rift Beasts?#

Rift Beasts are monstrous bosses located in the Rift of Worlds. They are divided into five different elements: Fire, Ice, Wind, Light, and Dark. Each beast has unique attacks, phases, and mechanics that make them a challenging adversary.

Preparing for Battle#

Team Composition#

To face these bad boys, you need a well-rounded team. Here’s a quick rundown of what you’ll need:

• Attack Units: High DPS monsters to maximize damage.
• Support Units: Buffers and debuffers to enhance your team’s capabilities and weaken the beast.
• Healers: Keep your team’s HP up to survive the beast’s onslaught.

Key Mechanics by Beasts#

Fire Beast#

• Incendiary Breath: Inflicts AoE damage and leaves a burning effect.
• Overheat: The beast deals more damage as its HP decreases.

Strategy: Focus on water element monsters, which have a damage advantage. Bring cleansers to remove debuffs and have consistent healing.

Ice Beast#

• Frosty Breath: Reduces your team’s attack speed and chills them.
• Freeze: The beast can freeze units, making them lose turns and take more damage.

Strategy: Wind elements are your best bet here. Adding speed buffs and immunity can save you from being frozen solid.

Wind Beast#

• Tempest Blast: Deals AoE damage and can push back your team’s attack bar.
• Whirlwind Protection: Buffs the beast with shields that deflect damage.

Strategy: Fire element units will fare well. Strip the beast’s buffs quickly and bring units that can deal with shields.

Light Beast#

• Holy Ray: Hits everything hard and can blind your units, affecting their accuracy.
• Purification: Heals itself and can cleanse debuffs.

Strategy: Dark element units get an edge. Uncage your heavy hitters and make sure you have defense breaks.

Dark Beast#

• Shadow Claw: These swipes hit hard and can land continuous damage.
• Nightmare: Puts your units to sleep, rendering them useless unless woken up.

Strategy: Light element monsters shine here. Immunity to sleep debuffs and burst damage can turn the tide in your favor.

Phase Breakdown#

Rift Beasts have multiple phases:

1. Normal Phase: The beast uses its basic skills.
2. Enrage Phase: As the beast’s HP drops, its attacks hit harder.
3. Groggy Phase: The beast becomes vulnerable after taking significant damage. This is your key to dealing massive damage.

Tips and Tricks#

• Rune Quality: Ensure your monsters have decent runes. Speed and Crit Rate are essential.
• Skill Rotation: Optimize your skill usage to maximize damage during the Groggy Phase.
• Elemental Advantage: Always use monsters that have an elemental edge over the beast you’re facing.

By understanding and exploiting these mechanics, you will significantly increase your chances of striking down these formidable foes. Gear up summoner, and take on the Rift Beasts with confidence!

That’s all for now on Rift Beasts in Summoners War. Stay tuned for more tips and strategies to evolve your game. Happy summoning!

Building Teams for Each Beast#

In Summoners War, tackling the Rift of Worlds can be super rewarding, but also incredibly challenging. Each beast you face in the Rift of Worlds requires a specialized team to bring it down efficiently. Let’s break down the core strategies for the five main Rift beasts: Fire, Ice, Wind, Light, and Dark.

Fire Beast#

The Fire Beast is known for dishing out powerful damage over time (DoT) effects. To counter this, bringing healers and attack debuffers is crucial.

Suggested Team Composition:

• Leader (ATK/HP): Sigmarus (Water Phoenix) or Verdehile (Fire Vampire)
• Healer: Colleen (Fire Harpu) - She provides excellent healing and attack buff.
• Nuker: Water Nuker like Theomars (Water Ifrit) or Stella (Water Assassin).
• Support/Debuffer: Belladeon (Light Inugami) for defense break or Shannon (Wind Pixie) for attack buff and slow debuff.
• Tank: A solid frontline tank like Darion (Light Vagabond) or a strong bruiser.

Key Strategy: Focus on applying defense breaks and keeping your team’s health up. Regular curing of DoT effects will keep you from getting overwhelmed.

Ice Beast#

The Ice Beast can freeze your units, stalling your progress. Therefore, immunity and debuff-clearing units are paramount.

Suggested Team Composition:

• Leader (SPD/HP): Megan (Water Mystic Witch) for speed boost or Bernard (Wind Griffon).
• Healer: Konamiya (Water Garuda) for cleanse and heals.
• Nuker: Lushen (Wind Joker) for ignoring defense or any strong Water damage dealer.
• Support: Chloe (Fire Epikion Priest) for immunity buff.
• Damage Dealer: Sigmarus (Water Phoenix) or Verad (Water Dragon).

Key Strategy: Always have immunity up during crucial turns to avoid mass freezes. Use cleanse abilities wisely when freezes do get through.

Wind Beast#

The Wind Beast requires you to nullify its heavy single-target nukes. Buffs and shields are essential here.

Suggested Team Composition:

• Leader (SPD/ATK): Baretta (Fire Sylph) or Megan (Water Mystic Witch).
• Healer/Shield: Ariel (Water Archangel) or Delphoi (Wind Undine).
• Nuker: Teshar (Wind Phoenix) or Lagmaron (Wind Chimera).
• Support/Debuffer: Shannon (Wind Pixie) for her buffs and debuffs.
• Tank: Wind-based tanks like Ramagos (Wind Warbear) to absorb heavy hits.

Key Strategy: Proper timing on shield and defense buffs will protect your team from devastating single-target attacks.

Light Beast#

Facing the Light Beast means dealing with glancing hits and light-based AoE attacks. Stacking buffs and using multi-hitters can turn the tide.

Suggested Team Composition:

• Leader (SPD/ATK): Belladeon (Light Inugami) for additional healing support.
• Healer: Fran (Light Fairy Queen) for her practical buffs and healing.
• Nuker: Mav (Wind Penguin Knight) for multi-strike capability.
• Support: Colleen (Fire Harpu) for attack buff.
• Tank: Strong light units like Darion (Light Vagabond).

Key Strategy: Neutralize the Light Beast’s AoE with buffs and heal regularly to maintain team stamina throughout the battle.

Dark Beast#

The Dark Beast combines high damage with debuffs that can quickly spiral out of control. Buffs, immunity, and cleanse are critical.

Suggested Team Composition:

• Leader (SPD/ATK): Verdehile (Fire Vampire) for turn boosting.
• Healer: Ariel (Water Archangel) or Delphoi (Wind Undine) with cleanse.
• Nuker: Amarna (Light Anubis) or Theomars (Water Ifrit).
• Support: Fran (Light Fairy Queen) for immunity and healing.
• Tank: Wind or Light tanks like Chasun (Wind Sky Dancer) for sustainable healing.

Key Strategy: Maintaining immunity and promptly cleansing debuffs can make your battle against the Dark Beast smoother. Balance offense with rigorous support to mitigate harsh debuffs.

Each beast in the Rift of Worlds offers a unique set of challenges, but with the right team composition and smart strategies, you can conquer them all. Tune your team as needed, and don’t forget to synergize your runes to maximize your effectiveness. Happy battling, Summoners!

Managing Resources and Drops#

In Summoners War, managing your resources efficiently can be the difference between a fast progression and a frustrating grind. With so many elements to juggle—like Crystals, Mana Stones, and Energy—it’s important to know where to focus your efforts and how to maximize your drops.

Crystals: Your Premium Currency#

Crystals are the premium currency in Summoners War. You can use them for almost anything, from refilling energy to buying special packages in the shop. Here’s how to get the most out of your crystals:

• Refill Energy: One of the best uses of crystals is refilling your energy. This allows you to grind more efficiently. Save these for special events or double XP weekends.
• Premium Packs: Once you’ve got a solid base, consider saving crystals for Premium Packs. These are great for expanding your monster collection.
• Mana Stones: Quick energy refills can help you farm better runes in dungeons like Giant’s Keep and Dragon’s Lair, leading to better drops.

Mana Stones: The Bread and Butter#

Mana Stones are the basic in-game currency. They may not be as exciting as crystals, but you’re gonna need a ton of these for runes, upgrading buildings, and more.

• Rune Upgrades: Prioritize using Mana Stones to upgrade your most valuable runes. The cost can get pretty high, but the stat boosts are worth it.
• Summon Scrolls: While it might be tempting to spend Mana Stones on Summon Scrolls, these should not be your main focus. You’re better off saving for important upgrades.

Energy: The Lifeblood of Progression#

Energy allows you to participate in battles and dungeons. Managing it wisely will help you make the most out of your playtime.

• Daily Activities: Complete daily missions and challenges. They provide a steady flow of extra energy and other valuable rewards.
• Event Participation: Keep an eye on in-game events that offer energy refills. Participating in these can give you an edge in farming and progression.

Glory Points: Upgrade Your Island#

Glory Points are obtained mainly from Arena battles, and they’re essential for upgrading structures on your island.

• Mysterious Plant: One of your first targets should be the Mysterious Plant, which reduces energy recharge time.
• Guardians and Flags: These structures provide stat boosts for your monsters and can make a huge difference in both PvE and PvP content.

Guild Points: Team Benefits#

Being part of an active guild provides access to Guild Points, which can be used in the Guild Shop.

• Rainbowmons: Use your Guild Points to get Rainbowmons for faster monster leveling.
• Ifrit Summoning: Save up your Guild Points for Ifrit summoning pieces. Ifrits are powerful and key to progression.

Dungeon Drops: The Key to Power#

Dungeons like the Giant’s Keep and Dragon’s Lair are where you’ll spend a lot of time farming for runes and materials.

• Rune Farming: Focus on farming for high-quality runes in Giant’s Keep early on. Runes make your monsters stronger, and better runes can drastically improve your teams’ performance.
• Rune Management: Only keep the best runes. Sell ones with poor stats. Remember, quality over quantity.

Scenario Farming: XP and More#

Running through scenario stages like Faimon Volcano can provide great XP and useful runes. It’s also a good place to farm Rainbowmons.

• XP Boosters: Use XP boosters during double XP events for maximum efficiency.
• Monster Food: Focus on stages that drop useful monsters for skill-ups or as ‘food’ to evolve stronger monsters.

By managing your resources effectively, you’ll find yourself progressing faster and more efficiently. Keep grinding, and may RNGesus bless your summons!

Strategies for High Scores#

So you’ve been grinding Rift of Worlds in Summoners War and you’re ready to shoot for some high scores. Awesome! Let’s break down some killer strategies to up your game and score those sweet rewards.

1. Team Composition Matters#

The biggest thing you need to understand is that your team comp can make or break your run. Each Rift Beast has different weaknesses and strengths, so you’ll need to tailor your team accordingly.

• Fire Beast: Bring water monsters. Damage dealers like Sigmarus and Poseidon work great.
• Ice Beast: Go for wind monsters. Try using Theomars and Perna.
• Wind Beast: Fire monsters like Tesarion and Hwa are your best friends here.
• Light Beast: Dark monsters such as Veromos and Kro can really shine.
• Dark Beast: Light monsters like Darion and Avaris are clutch.

2. Rune Quality Over Quantity#

Rushing to fill runes slots with anything you have can backfire. Focus on quality. A monster with a few good runes will perform better than one with six average ones. Aim for:

• High crit rate and crit damage for your DPS monsters.
• Speed and survivability for your support units.

3. Synergy is Key#

Your monsters need to work well together. Use monsters whose skills complement each other. For instance:

• Pair a healer with an aggressive damage dealer. Chasun and Theomars make a great duo.
• Utilize defense breakers like Galleon to maximize your damage output.
• Bring along buffer monsters like Megan to boost your overall performance.

4. Focus Fire#

You want to deal as much damage as possible, right? Target one part of the beast at a time to maximize your score. Having your team focus their attacks can lead to quicker breaks and higher damage.

5. Use the Right Leader Skills#

Leader skills can provide a massive boost to your team. They are often the difference between an S rank and an A+ rank run.

• For attacks: Look for skills that boost attack power or crit rate.
• For survivability: Skills that boost health or defense can keep your team alive longer.

6. Optimize Your Turn Order#

This might sound nit-picky, but the order your monsters take their turns can be crucial.

• Have your defense breaker go first to lower defense before your damage dealers attack.
• Follow up with buffing monsters before your main attackers do their thing.

7. Continuous Improvement#

Monitor your runs and tweak your team as needed. Sometimes small changes can lead to big improvements. Maybe swapping out a monster or rearranging rune sets will push you over the edge.

By focusing on these key strategies, you’ll see your scores climb steadily. Remember, summoners, patience and persistence are your allies. Keep at it, and those high scores will be within your grasp!

Tips for Rift of Worlds Success#

Jumping into the Rift of Worlds can be crazy tough. No worries, though—we’ve got you covered. Here are some essential tips to boost your success.

Know Your Enemy#

Each Rift Beast has its set of dirty tricks. Before diving in, study their skills:

• Fire Beast loves to burn and split damage among your team.
• Ice Beast can freeze and deflect damage.
• Wind Beast heals, meaning you have to drop major damage quickly.

Understanding these cheats will help you plan your team and strategy.

Build the Right Team#

To tackle each Rift Beast, you need a balanced mix of monsters:

• Frontline Tanks: You’ll want monsters with high HP and defense to soak up damage.
• Damage Dealers: Crucial for whittling down the beast’s health quickly.
• Healers: Keep your team alive. Look for AOE heals or single-target bursts.
• Support: Buff your team or debuff the beast (or both!)

Having elemental advantages is also a big deal. Bring monsters whose elements counter the beast’s element for an extra edge.

Runes Matter#

Seriously, don’t slack on runes. Choosing the right runes can make a massive difference:

• Tanks: Look for runes with high HP, Defense, and maybe some Resistance.
• Damage Dealers: Go for Critical Rate, Critical Damage, and Attack Power to maximize damage output.
• Healers and Support: They need either Speed (for quicker turns) or HP/Defense (to survive longer).

Don’t forget about power-ups and grindstones! Fully upgrading runes and optimizing stats can tip the scales in your favor.

Timing Your Skills#

Timing is everything. Save your big skills for crucial moments:

• Debuffs and Defense Breaks right before your damage dealers strike.
• Healing and Buffs when your team’s in trouble or before the beast’s high-damage move.

Watch for patterns in the beast’s attacks and adjust your timing accordingly.

Auto vs Manual#

While auto-battling is convenient, manual control often yields better results. It helps you react to changing conditions mid-fight:

• Manual Control: Consider switching to manual for the final stages of the fight or during pivotal moments.
• Auto Battle: Use this for grinding lower difficulty levels after your team is well-geared.

Test and Tweak#

Every loss teaches a lesson. If a plan fails, examine what went wrong:

• Review Battle Replays: Spot weaknesses in your strategy and adjust.
• Adjust Monster Placement: Sometimes switching a tank from the front row to the backrow can make all the difference.
• Experiment with New Monsters: Swap in different monsters to find the right chemistry and skills.

Keep testing and tweaking until your team clicks.

Co-op with Friends#

Don’t forget the power of friends! Coordinate with your guild or friends:

• Share Strategies: Learn from each other’s experiences.
• Team Up: Join forces for easier wins. Make sure everyone brings their best monsters to the table.

Stay Persistent#

The path to Rift of Worlds success isn’t easy. Keep grinding, keep learning, and don’t get discouraged by failures. Each battle gets you one step closer to mastering the Rift Beasts.

Keep these tips in mind, and you’ll be smashing through the Rift of Worlds in no time. Happy summoning!
