Era of the Stars is an SLG game with a sci-fi theme, where players can combine different characters, skills, and troops to form many unique playstyles. So, what are the powerful lineups in Era of the Stars? Here, we will share with you the lineup pairing strategy for Era of the Stars, presenting several very strong lineups, and also sharing the core characters, as well as the necessary skills and troop types.
Basic Attack Team: Erica + Zhao Yun
Erica is a hero obtained through the limited-time "Interstellar Treasure," and she can be considered the new T0 character for basic attack teams. With the splash damage from her basic attacks, she demonstrates T0-level strength in both single-target and group battles. Zhao Yun is one of the newly crowned "Three Emperors," not only possessing extreme basic attack damage but also capable of converting part of his basic attack damage into non-basic attack damage. This unique mechanism means that he doesn't have to worry when facing counter-attack teams, effectively compensating for a natural weakness of basic attack teams.
For troop types, it is recommended to use "Sky Fortress," as its ship form can simultaneously attack three targets, perfectly matching Erica's splash mechanism. It can quickly reduce the health of multiple enemy units. In battles against world bosses or other single-target environments, it can be switched to "Mastiff Warrior" to trigger more armor penetration with high attack frequency, while also having decent critical hit chances.
Rapid Fire Team: Mulan + Andromeda
The former is a T0-level hero for rapid fire teams, with a 40% chance to trigger rapid fire at the start, along with 5 seconds of crowd control immunity and 10% lifesteal, making her well-rounded in offense and defense. Andromeda is the pillar of the rapid fire team; she can be obtained by recharging just 6 yuan, offering great value. She further increases the chance of skill activation after triggering rapid fire, synergizing with "Negative Pressure Feeding" to maximize Mulan's output.
For troop types, it is recommended to bring "Mastiff Warrior," as the high attack frequency also increases the likelihood of triggering rapid fire. Alternatively, "Stealth Saboteur" can be chosen, which can remain hidden before mining and gain additional damage bonuses upon entering combat.
Counter-Attack Team: Ling Wei + Sybil
Ling Wei is a hero obtained through the limited-time "Interstellar Treasure" and is the top choice for counter-attack systems. Not only does she have high evasion, but she can also reduce the enemy's evasion, combining survival, disruption, and output. Sybil, another of the "Three Emperors," is also a core member of the counter-attack team, with 5 seconds of crowd control immunity, increasing evasion and armor penetration, and partially converting counter-attack damage into durability, providing strong sustainability.
For troop types, it is suggested to use "Hurricane Armor," which provides the highest evasion bonus, significantly improving the team's survivability and allowing the team to deal higher damage.
Counter-Damage Team: Boudica + Billy
Boudica is the core of this system, triggering 40% counter-damage when receiving basic attacks, and has a 20% chance of self-healing, making her the most suitable front-line tank hero. Although Billy does not have built-in healing, he can enhance the healing effects received, and with the "Mechanical Infection" skill, he becomes stronger as the battle progresses. However, it should be noted that this lineup heavily relies on healing, and some counter-damage skills (such as "Sealed Motor") can negate healing. If there are no better S-grade counter-damage skills, even if there are no usable purple cards, do not use this card, as it may have a counterproductive effect.
It is recommended to bring "Titan Guardian" for troop types, as it has the highest durability, and its defensive formation can further increase toughness, providing greater room for the counter-damage mechanism to work.
Healing Team: Anubis + Isis
This can be called the golden combination. Anubis is obtained through the limited-time "Stellar Reaper" event and is currently the strongest hero in terms of healing, with stable group healing and self-recovery, making her very strong in terms of survival and protecting teammates. Isis is the core healing hero obtained by completing the 7-day challenge task, and paired with Anubis, she can continuously provide powerful recovery for the team.
For troop types, the only suitable option currently is "Steel Vulture Fighter," focusing on continuous recovery. Although it does not contribute in other aspects, it greatly improves the team's sustainability, which is sufficient.
That concludes the lineup pairing strategy for Era of the Stars. The lineups mentioned above are the current top-tier configurations, featuring ultimate basic attacks, powerful rapid fire, violent counter-attacks, invincible counter-damage, and specialized healing. These five different and powerful lineup systems, if you don't have the corresponding skill cards and characters, can also use some lower-tier alternatives.
