Suwai Firstborn End Game Build Guide

Suwai is one of the few Epic champions in the game that has both Decrease Defense and Weaken debuff in her skillset. She can be considered as a damage dealer for a team that can deal enough damage to 1 key UNM and she is Void affinity making her reliable in placing those debuffs. Suwai in Unkillable compositions shows the best results as you do not need to worry about her survivability and can just focus on the correct Speed, Accuracy and DPS stats.

Skills

She also has an AOE attack on A2 that places a Decrease ATK debuff on all enemies, making her a great champion for PVE content. But then we need more HP and Def and this will be covered on the follow-up pages. Since her role as a damage dealer and as a support champion for PVE are mutually exclusive, in this guide we will consider her as a damage dealer. This requires special masteries and gear, this guide will focus on this.

In order for Suwai to show the best results, we definitely need to book her A1 to increase damage and A3 to also increase damage and up Weaken chance to 100%. Her A2 will be turned off in presets as not to take up space with useless debuffs for an Unkillable Composition.

Masteries

For best results on CB Warmaster T6 mastery is the number one choice. Single Out from the Offense branch and other damage increasing masteries work well. For the second branch it is better to take Defense with the Retribution, which will increase the damage in our team as long as you can get enough Accuracy from the gear.

As usually for Unkillable, no TM increasing masteries can be selected in order not to break the speed tune.

Gear & Stats Build

Suwai in this guide will be used in the Unkillable team on Сlan Boss in the team where she can use any sets. The best in this composition is the Relentless set, which will significantly increase her damage without it you should not expect incredible results. Make sure to check if your Unkillable allows you to run this type of the set before gearing her in it!

For the secondary set you can use anything that will give you the missing stats or just increase your damage.

Recommended Main Stats

  • Gloves – Crit Damage%
  • Chest – ATK%
  • Boots – SPD
  • Ring – ATK
  • Amulet – Crit Damage
  • Banner – ACC or ATK

Clan Boss Team & Strategy

Suwai is featured in one of the best Clan Boss teams in the game that goes 2 times per 1 turn of the boss. The chance of a Decrease Def debuff on her A1 is 50% and seems too little, but thanks to frequent moves 2 by 1, she almost constantly places it on the boss. Taking so many turns will also reduce the cooldown of her A3. The team can work on full auto on Brutal, NM and UNM difficulties and 1 key them with good equipment.

Thanks to these conditions, Suwai can almoust permanently impose a Decrease Defense and Weaken debuffs on the boss, which will make it possible to inflict significant dps. The champion and roles for this clan boss example team is as follows:

  • Maneater for Unkillable and Block Debuffs buffs with 266 speed.
  • Maneater for Unkillable and Block Debuffs buffs with 244 speed.
  • Seeker for Increase ATK buff and turn meter boost with 250 speed.
  • Pain Keeper for decreasing the cooldown of all allies skills and healing with 240 speed and in a Toxic set for Poisons.
  • Suwai for dps with 223 speed.

1-4 positions are required for this Unkillable to work and you cant replace those champions. However, you can use another team with 2:1 rotation with Suwai. Unfortunately Force affinity UNM boss cannot be 1 keyed due to Seeker being weak affinity there. But if you can increase the damage of the rest of the team, using an additional Toxic set or damage increasing sets, then you can achieve 1 key and Force affinity too.

  1. Tayrel for Decrease DEF + Decrease ATK.
  2. Apothecary for SPD buff and healing.

Ice Golem 20

The Ice Golem is the most unpredictable boss due to how hard it Counterattacks after reaching certain HP threshold. Without Decrease ATK, the end of the battle can come at any moment due to the high damage slap back. Suwai will help with this, and her other debuffs will help kill minions faster.

Here is an example composition for Ice Golem 20 with no revival champion:

  1. Tayrel for Decrease DEF + Decrease ATK.
  2. Apothecary for SPD buff and healing.
  3. Tallia for dps.
  4. Suwai for AOE Decrease ATK.
  5. Occult Brawler to quickly kill the Golem with Poisons.

Spider 20

One of the dungeons that is difficult to complete if you do not have the right champions is the Spider’s Den. One of the budget tactics is to put 1 opposing affinity hero on the boss that can survive spiderlings attacks. AOE Decrease ATK can help with that goal. Void affinity allows her to avoid being a priority target for the spiderlings.

Here is an example of budget tactic composition for Spider 20:

  1. Tayrel for decrease DEF.
  2. Apothecary for SPD buff and healing.
  3. Rhazin Scarhide for tanking damage from spiderlings with Lifesteal set and GS T6.
  4. Suwai for AOE decrease ATK.
  5. Armiger to decrease the turn meter and quickly kill the Boss with MAX HP skill.

In Faction Wars, Suwai helps the team with his decrease ATK debuff on the waves, and on the Boss itself with Decrease DEF and Weaken debuffs, helping with faster clears. Suwai is an attack type champion and doesn’t have good HP stat needing supports to apply debuffs and deal dps.
