Stage Resistances & Team Recommendations
★Floor 9-11 Resistances:
- Floor 9: Glacio RES — Avoid Glacio teams. Phrolova, Cantarella, or Shorekeeper are fine.
- Floor 10: Electro RES — Avoid Electro teams. Others are fine.
- Floor 11: Havoc RES — Not ideal for Havoc teams. Use Ciaccona, Verina, or Cartethyia.
- Token advice: Use Tokens in Rarity 4 (Plunderer Captain's Seal or Reveler Captain's Seal) on Floor 9, switch to Tokens in Rarity 5 (Haven that Gleams Elegantly or A Question with Many Answers) from Floor 10 onward.
★Infinite Torrents Resistances:
- First Half:
Three Glacio monsters, with a higher RES to Glacio DMG
|
Frostscourge Stalker |
Calcified Junrock |
Abyssal Gladius |
One Havoc monster, with a higher RES to Havoc DMG
|
Chasm Guardian |
- Second Half:
Two Glacio monsters
|
Glacio Predator |
Abyssal Gladius |
Two Havoc monsters
|
Chasm Guardian |

- Summary: Glacio and Havoc teams are not recommended this cycle. If it is necessary to use Havoc teams, try First Half.

|
Cartethyia |
Ciaccona |
Verina |
|

Conclusion
This cycle of Whimpering Wastes is more accessible than ever thanks to the return of the powerful universal 5-star Token Falling Star that Tears Fate Apart, which provides a massive 110% damage boost to almost any team. While Glacio teams struggle due to high enemy resistance in both halves, Fusion, Electro, Aero, Spectro, and even Havoc teams can perform very well with the right Token setup (Havoc teams for the First Half).
Even if you don’t have the perfect team, the new Tokens make it possible to clear with a wide range of compositions—so don’t be afraid to experiment!
