- Wants dedicated setup time — dropping Last Rite into a random squad without infliction / stagger support softens the damage window.

Shared Team Members
With Last Rite
Arcane adds Susceptibility/grouping or secondary Cryo-Nature pressure while Last Rite owns the Infliction carry seat.
With Yvonne
Arcane either dumps Nature/Cryo damage in INT form or groups and applies Susceptibility in WILL form. Beside Yvonne, she is the setup/burst flex that creates a clean window to spend.
With Last Rite
Tangtang's time-stop is why Last Rite can finish a full Cryo Infliction dump safely.
With Yvonne
Tangtang's Ultimate is a full-screen time-stop. Cast it so Yvonne (and the rest of the squad) can dump skills safely without the wave moving out of position.
With Last Rite
Xaihi amps Cryo/Arts so Last Rite's Infliction stacks convert into real burst damage.
With Yvonne
Xaihi is the Cryo/Arts buffer seat — Amp from Battle Skill and team Cryo/Nature amp from Ultimate so Yvonne's damage windows are actually buffed.
With Last Rite
Gilberta applies Arts Susceptibility and Nature enablement, then amps the dump with her Ultimate. She is the premium Arts support seat next to Last Rite.
