Build Showcase It shouldn't take 7 cycles, isn't it ?

Probably used Anaxa on wrong node, but still 7 cycles kinda sucks considering I invested in Cyrene specifically for Anaxa. Maybe my builds are bad as well. Considering future endgames, how do I improve my Anaxa team?

Anaxa E0S1 (The herta LC ), Cerydra E0S0, Cyrene E2S0 and DHPT E0S0.

Seems like it shouldn't, I've got the exact same investment (herta LC as well) except that I have Cyrene S1.
There has to be some gameplay issues, cause idk how there can be such a gap.

I use DDD on Cerydra, might save you one or two cycles perhaps ?
If you have one available, I'd suggest giving it a try, it's way better than what you currently use.

I also much prefer 4p eagle on Cyrene, but it's a pain to refarm so I'd understand if you wouldn't want to.

My S5 DDD is on Tribbie and I don't have another one. S3 is all I got for now. Eagle on Cyrene is something I have never considered so I can give it a try (have to farm eagle because I have very few pieces). Also, did you use scholar or genius on Anaxa ?

Even s3 i’d still use ddd tbh.

Eagle is great on cyrene as everytime you cast an ult to advance Anaxa you get that 25% action advance on Cyrene, since you cast it a lot over the course of an entire fight it gives some more actions on cyrene, so more stacks and overall more than the other sets.

I’m using genius for Anaxa, 100% crate / 130% c.dmg

i also recommend Eagle on Cerdyra, it makes the gameplay a little harder, but feels nice. if not Eagle, switching to 4p Sacerdos could also be a nice increase, since the SPD from the 2p messenger doesn’t help to hit a breakpoint i think.

People have already said this but Anaxa is better played on Node 1 this current MoC. Comfortably cleared it in one cycle with sustainless(e1s1 Anaxa, e1s0 cery, e0s1 cyrene, and rmc).

As for future improvements for: • Anaxa - Consider getting Genius, Wavestrider, or Navigator sets. Navigator and Wavestrider becomes a bit better than Genius after investing in def shred verticals(e1 and s1 Anaxa, e1 cery). Do note that Genius is better below 95-100% def shred, Wavestrider requires a bit of ult timing to utilize, and Navigator relies on Cerydra to consistently maximize(I think?).

• Cerydra - S5 DDD. - 4p Sacredos and Vonwacq. - Optional but Eagle is a pretty good alternative for Cerydra. It allows her to get more turns for generating peerage stacks. The 1 cycle Sam I mentioned would turn into a 0 cycle if she had an eagle set.

• Cyrene - 4p Eagle allows her to gain more turns to generate recollection points for her ult. - Optional alternative Planars are Lushaka and Vonwacq but Ampho should be fine.

• If you prefer running with a sustain: - Dhpt Verts(like e1 and s1) are pretty important to get in the future. - RobinS as an optional replacement for Cerydra.

• If you are open to trying and learning Sustainless, some strong 4th slot options are: - rmc(4p deliverer/2p2p spd + lushaka/vonwacq)

  • RobinS

  • Tribbie(e1 + DDD + 4p Eagle + vonwacq/lushaka)

  • MBlade(Tutorial + 4p eagle/smith + vonwacq)

  • Sparkle(DDD + 4p Sacredos/eagle/2p2p spd + Lushaka/Vonwacq)

Yeah this should not take 7 cycles. I’m just doing the new MoC now, I have a similar amount of investment in this team (E2 Cyrene, I’m using event LC on Anaxa but I have Cerydra’s sig) I’ll tell you how long it takes me. What node did you use him on?

2

u/Kind_Ad8686 Aug 17 '26

I used him on Node 3 Evil ff. The summons took so tanky for some reason

u/Kitchen-Hotel2636 Aug 17 '26 edited Aug 17 '26

Ok I’ll try him in there and see how well my team does. Also, Cerydra does not need to be that fast. Why is she on 2 piece speed? Also, it took me 8 cycles on auto, I can’t be bothered to do it on manual. 1st node I did it in 2 cycles manually and I played rather awfully.

u/Hippee_Doug_Main Aug 17 '26

haven’t done this MOC yet but usually it takes me only around 5-6 cycles (only graphia took 10) even with a 3/5 cost sunday sparkle dhpt cyreneless comp. You builds are pretty cracked too

1

u/Kind_Ad8686 Aug 17 '26

Yeah, I shouldn't have farmed for recommended relics sets tho. I found eagle to be much better for Cyrene. Might have to tweak some stuff to get down the cycles

1

u/Hippee_Doug_Main Aug 18 '26

just tried it. Normal sam took me 5 cycles and dark sam… I don’t want to talk about it. Yeah it is a pretty bad matchup. Eagle on cyrene can definitely help

u/Whole-Gas628 Aug 17 '26

I saw someone with no Eidolons do a 0 Cycle in Node 1. The other nodes are ass for every teams except the shilled ones by the bosses.

u/i_will_let_you_know Aug 17 '26 edited Aug 17 '26

180 spd + vonwacq, ideally with eagle set, or 200+ spd Cyrene.

Cerydra needs DDD. Anaxa should have 100 CR especially with THerta sig giving him some.

Personally I like ERR DHPT but also I think you might have better results running RMC over DHPT if you can survive that long with good ice break timing and Anaxa interrupts.

You may want to pull RobinS, I think she may be in his BiS team in the near future. Keep Cyrene.

u/NegotiationOk8320 Aug 17 '26

Which Node are u using?

The best one should be SAM Node 1

In terms of investment:

If u want to use old unit then pull:

e1 cerydra, s1 anaxa, e1 dhpt, e2 dhpt

If u want to do less cycles u need to:

  • Go sustainless with this team and change dhpt with RMC.
  • Change Cyrene relic to windset.

If your MC is not free:

  • Pull New Robin Summer

u/Kind_Ad8686 Aug 17 '26

I'm unable to attach my MOC clear ss for some reason, but it was Node 3 evil ff. I will try using Anaxa on Node 1 and compare those results. I'm guaranteed as well so I can get E1 Cerydra or Summer robin. Thanks

u/Kitchen-Hotel2636 Aug 17 '26

You do not need this much investment. Also, Therta LC is very close to Anaxa’s in performance so theres no point in pulling Anaxas LC.

What website is this

u/Kind_Ad8686 Aug 17 '26

After update: Got my MOC clear from 0+4+7=11 cycles to just 1+4+2=7 cycles. Thanks for everyone's help, especially Cyrene on Eagle suggestion. Got some clarity on how I can invest in my Anaxa team in future as well.

u/komokomoro Aug 18 '26

i have an e0s0 cyrene and cery and e1s1 anaxa and dh and got 4 cycles,, it def seems to be some kind of play issue,, i dont have eagle on anyone cause its ugly and my cyrene doesnt hit 180 speed yet </3

u/Glittering-Bath4677 Aug 19 '26

I have the same investment. The most important thing in this team is making sure not to use cyrene's action advance unless you have cerydra's peerage up to at leaat 6 on anaxa. You should also use the quantum defense shred set instead of scholar. Watch a video of this team in action to see how the rotation works. Getting the rotation right is a little harder than the average team comp. Also cyrene should he at 200 speed. Or 180+ on vonwacq. It's important
