Last Rite Weapons & Gear Progression

Comprehensive progression guide from level 1 to 80+

Updated: 2/22/2026 | BiS + F2P Options | P0 Viable

6★ DPS Cryo Great Sword

Top-tier Single-Target Cryo DPS with immense burst potential. Requires exactly 3 Cryo Infliction stacks to function at full power, making her rotation rigid but rewarding. Her Ultimate provides an invincibility window followed by 3 devastating Cryo slashes. P0 viable and can rival limited operators even at base constellations.

Build Focus

Cryo DMG, Skill DMG, ATK%, Arts Intensity, Ultimate uptime. Focus on maximizing burst damage during the 3-stack Cryo Infliction window.

Skill Priority

Ultimate > Battle Skill > Combo Skill > Normal Attack

Playstyle

Build 3 Cryo Infliction stacks through teammates or self-application, then use Ultimate for massive invincibility-framed burst damage. Follow with Battle Skill and Combo Skill during buff windows. Rigid rotation but devastating single-target damage. Struggles with AoE clearing.

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) → 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.

Team Compositions

Optimal

Last Rite (DPS) + Xaihi (heal/Cryo Amp) + Ardelia (support/battery) + Yvonne (Cryo synergy/Striker)

Alternative

Last Rite + Perlica (Electric infusion) + Xaihi + Ardelia (Cryo/Electric hybrid)

Min-Max Tips

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

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

Ultimate provides invincibility - use it to iframe dangerous attacks

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

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

P0 is completely viable - she performs excellently even without constellations

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

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

Khravengger scales up to +48% Cryo DMG at 3 stacks - this is why the weapon is BiS

10.

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