Which CR pusher / opener is the best for your needs?

CR = Combat Readiness.

In a current game meta where speed remains king, CR units are a must for a PvP cleave team on offence, while some players still using cleave composition on their defence.

Few CR are also very relevant for your PvE content and farming (Hunts/Raids).

Below is a selected list of the most used CR:

1. Judith: You have your cleave ready for PvP with Diene / Bellona or Tenebria and AOE nuke or you need an immediate CR booster solution to climb? So lets go for Judith, a cheap solution offering a great base speed and CR enough.

She will be only for your PvP team on either offence or defence (Arena/GB) as she lacks everything else to shine in PvE. Find our Judith rating here

2. Celeste: You have been lucky on your 3 stars ML pulls, Celeste is not only good for PvP but as well for PvE and worth six starring day long. With one of the fastest speed base in the game, she can cover all content for your team. She pairs very well with Challenger Dominiel if you bring her critical chance to 100%, and she can handle solo farming like a mofo / had some decent damage overall. We like her on Speed/Crit or whatever your best speed subs offer.

3. Schuri: The King of Crits! Will just improve your game in every content, help you to speed up few of your Hunts 11 (Golem/Anu) and his s1 debuff Poison is golden for Pve / Bosses in Raids or Abyss too.

Early trick to reach 100% critical is to put / buy a cheap Critical Chance % Necklace from the Shop. 100% is really a must to make most out of him.

The beauty of his passive makes every single of his move a CR boost for your team, so Rosana artefact is recommended.

Schuri has Speed Imprint, which is a very high advantage as a CR for your PvP.

He pairs very well with C.Domi too. Find out our Schuri rating here

4. Shadow Rose: To us, she is not the fastest but overall use the best of all CR out there. Why?

Not only her elemental advantage, but her debuffs (break/unhealable) and dispel are golden. Mostly, her s3 create a 50% CR stretch in PvP allowing you to bring slow and fat DPS units instead of any other CR out there.

Except the speed, her base stats are the best among all CR in the game, and players often go for a tanky build and put Aurius to absorb damage your team is taking.

She pairs wonderfully with a slow and fat Challenger Dominiel if you have enough crit on her.

For the set, Speed / HP or Hit or Immunity.

We like her on Hilag Lance artefact if she is not in a frontline position, because it will boost her CR tremendously - and also Elbris to get those potential def break / unhealable counter in between her turns.

5. Righteous Roozid: Its gonna take some grind to unlock this new Specialty Change, but it will be worthy. RRoozid has a great s3 cooldown once maxed up, which allows lot of CR in the long runs. He is good everywhere and pairs very well with Speed Damage based units like Cidd, Assassin Coli and many more.

His HP base is very low, care to get some HP stats.

He has Speed Imprint, which is key for your team in PvP.

We like R&L on him as artefact. Find out our R Roozing rating here

6. General Purrgis: A different animal, his CR boost works on passive, but if you run a very fast team then he becomes a really good upset in PvP allowing your team to cut in between.

We liked him as well as frontliner in PvE, stuns are always good to control and clean waves and minions aside the Boss.

S3 provides attack buff to the team, s1 provoke - we like Elf Fist artefact on him and Speed/Immunity for PvP. Needs high efficiency to perform well.

7. Requiemroar: Used in every content of the game, Requiem is one of the most versatile 3 stars ML / CR you could build out there. Overall great stats for a 3 stars, a bit on the squishy side which requires some HP stats (a HP% on ring or neck is great), her skill set brought it all. S3 break def for 2 turns and boost CR team by 20%, amazing S2 passive to heal your team and s1 Attack debuff. We liked her on Speed/Hit or Crit with Shimadra Staff. See our rating here

8. Rose: Often overlooked or put aside as fodder for her Shadow version, thanks to GB she can now shine and have more respect. A unit who can boost both attack and CR at once in GB is golden - allowing you to place two DPS for a pure cleave either on Off or Def. We like her Speed/Def, Immunity with Aurius artefact. Her s1 is a twist, but you can capitalise on her provoke with Hit set and Elbris Ritual for counters too. Find our Rose rating here

There are more and more units offering CR manipulation skills in the past release (Dizzy / Baiken / ML Baal etc), you can find our in-depth reviews in the link below:

Feel free to share any Rose Video you found relevant on Youtube / Vimeo, and any of your artwork or screenshot for build and team comp in the comments section below!

On last note, CR boosters are easy to fill in PvP for fast cleave allowing you to bring at least 2 DPS, but in PvE - ensure your DPS are tanky enough (ideally 9K HP, 800 Def) to clear the hardest contents.

Have Fun!
