Reverse: 1999 Best Teams

Team comps and Arcanist pairings that work together.

Petrification Core — Druvis III

Druvis III anchors the team with her unique petrify control. The team buffs and covers her petrify cycle; during it Druvis III becomes the sub-DPS core driving the loop, while Satsuki shifts to a support role covering control.

Classic Opener — Charlie + Sonetto

A classic beginner-friendly pairing: Sonetto provides buffs and team support while Charlie contributes damage — a reliable backbone you build the rest of the team around.
