Finally 3* Obelisk 30F as a F2P, my thoughts on the climb to the Primeval Soulstone

I will start by distinguishing the first twenty floor with the last ten since imo they require a different approach.

  1. Floor 1 to 19
    Light mei at floor 20 is the first maJor roadbloack but i feel that before then, with boss HP being relatively low compared to later stages, you can still manage with most heroes as long as your team is balanced and they are properly leveled and geared.

  2. Floor 20 to 30
    Both enemy HP and DEF reach new heights, Sap is a must have, and the more you climb, the more painful it becomes to clear the first two minion waves, G Laph or W Alev x5 dmg multiplier skills as well as the full surge set on your sniper become increasingly necessary.

I had to make it work with a max of 10 burst spirit since i am currently lord lvl 20.

As for the heroes needed, i used Red Vanessa, Dark nine and Laph in every team that helped me through the last 10 stages, last two spots were filled by either Blue Krom, Green Olivia or Blue Vanessa. All of them were 6* lvl 50+ no ascencion except Laph, with most gear being 6* % based and all upgraded to +15.

​

  • Laph is the main damage dealer, maxed out and built 3 atk / 1hp with 30% counter, he makes the first two waves much easier and his stun on S1 often comes in handy.
  • Nine is built tanky with full surge set. 54% debuff rate on him was enough for his sap to land semi consistently throughout the last stages. Blue Lucillica is another solid option as well since she is a sapsnipe too.
  • Both Vanessas have a healing set, Blue has hp accessories and Red has speed. Having Red van as the fastest hero in my party helped me a lot setting up my ults, she can work well with Green Olivia and/or Blue Krom. Her ult was the key to most fights and in those later stages, it is all about surviving long enough to stack the sap on the boss.

Last stage is a struggle considering that you have to bring Blue Fram if you want the soulstone, the boss has 2 AOE on short cooldowns and gains 15% action gauge when you hit her.
I brought both Vanessa, Laph, Nine and Fram 5* lvl 50 with full aegis hp and def set.
All of them had a minimum of 40% resistance through substats to help mitigate the risk of being stunned.

I had to raise Red Van speed from 226 to 238 for this specific stage and lower everybody else down to 124 and under in order for her to come right before Fram most of the time.
Johan and Schneider should be taken down asap because of their AOE skill, Mikhail and Charlotte do not pose much of a threat.
Nine was the only one hitting Fram, only when he could do so without giving her a turn before Red Van or to protect Blue van coming right behind.
In that regard, assists as well as Warrior counter proc can make it a bit tricky sometimes.

Hope this can help some of you, Bonne chance à vous !
