Available Pieces: Tide Surge Armor, Tide Surge Gauntlets, Tide Surge Calibrator, Tide Surge Power Cartridge

Alternative MI Security (3pc) Tier 3
Critical Rate +5%
After the wearer scores a critical hit, gain ATK +5% for 5s. This effect can reach 5 stacks. At max stacks, grant an additional Critical Rate +5%. This effect cannot stack.

Crit-focused DPS set. Ramps up to +10% Crit Rate and +25% ATK. Good for crit-heavy builds.

Note: Use if you prioritize crit over raw Cryo DMG

Support Pulser Labs (3pc)
Arts Intensity +30

Final Build Optimization

Rotation

Generate Cryo Infliction stacks (from teammates or self-application) → Reach 3 stacks → Ultimate (invincibility + 3 heavy slashes) → Battle Skill → Combo Skill during buff windows

Timing

Wait until exactly 3 Cryo Infliction stacks before using Ultimate. The burst window is critical - all damage should happen during this phase. Time skills to maximize Tide Surge set bonus.

Quick Reference
Min-Max Tips
1.

Last Rite can ONLY gain Ultimate Energy from her own skills - not from teammates. Plan accordingly.

2.

The 3 Cryo Infliction stacks are MANDATORY - don't use Ultimate without them

3.

Ultimate provides invincibility - use it to iframe dangerous attacks

4.

Struggles with AoE/mob clearing due to small hitboxes - focus on single-target bosses

5.

Positioning matters - lock-on can be finicky, stay close to targets

6.

P0 is completely viable - she performs excellently even without constellations

7.

Consider running Catastrophe 3pc for daily farming comfort (faster Ultimate access)

8.

Tide Surge set bonus triggers after 2+ Arts Infliction stacks - Last Rite's 3-stack rotation naturally activates this

9.

Khravengger scales up to +56% Cryo DMG on combo skill vs Cryo Inflicted enemies - this is why the weapon is BiS

10.

Xaihi's Cryo Amp is massive - makes her almost essential for Last Rite teams

11.

Khravengger requires Detonate essence to unlock weapon passive - target 3/3 match

Last Rite Build FAQ

What is Last Rite's best weapon?
Khravengger (6★) is BiS for Last Rite. It provides Skill DMG +56% and scales Cryo DMG up to +56% on combo skills against Cryo Inflicted enemies, perfectly matching her core mechanic. Sundered Prince (6★) is second best. Seeker of Dark Lung (5★) is best F2P option at max refinement.
What gear set should Last Rite use?
Tide Surge 3pc (Gold) provides +20% Skill DMG and +35% Arts DMG after applying 2+ Arts Infliction stacks. This perfectly aligns with Last Rite's 3-stack Cryo Infliction burst rotation. Alternative: MI Security for crit-focused builds.
Is Last Rite worth building?
Yes for Cryo teams and single-target boss killing. Last Rite is P0 viable and rivals limited operators. Her rigid 3-stack requirement makes her less flexible for AoE content, but her burst damage is top-tier.
What is Last Rite's skill priority?
Ultimate > Battle Skill > Combo Skill > Normal Attack. Ultimate is her primary damage source and provides invincibility. Battle Skill applies Cryo Infliction for stack building.
