Anime Destiny Raid Mode Guide

Raid mechanics, team setup, artifact farming, and boss strategies for all raid tiers.

1

What is Raid Mode?

Raids are cooperative boss encounters that require coordinated teams. Unlike story bosses, raid bosses have phase transitions, mechanics that require multiple unit types, and rare artifact drops. Raids reset weekly with rotating bosses.

Tip: Raids are the primary source of S-tier artifacts like Demon Shard and Titan Core.

Demon Raid

The Demon Raid features a multi-phase boss with fire AOE attacks. Phase 1: standard DPS check with shield phases. Phase 2: summons fire adds that must be cleared within 15 seconds. Phase 3: enrage with full-map AOE every 10 seconds. Drops Demon Shard (0.5% rate).

Tip: Bring Frozen Moon for freeze on fire adds. Equip Frost Crystal artifact for +25% slow effect on adds.

3

Shadow Dungeon

The Shadow Dungeon is a wave-based raid with dark-element enemies resistant to physical damage. Bring magic-based DPS units and anti-magic units like Magicbane. Shadow Essence drops here at 5% rate. Clear all 10 waves for maximum rewards.

Tip: Anti-magic units deal 2x damage to dark-element enemies. Magicbane is the MVP here.

4

Poison Marsh

Poison Marsh features enemies that apply stacking poison DoT to your units. Poison Vial artifact (+50% DoT damage) drops here at 8% rate. Bring DoT-focused units like Insect Slayer or Ashura Swordsman to out-sustain enemy poison.

Tip: Equip Poison Vial on your DoT units for massive damage boost. This is the only raid where DoT units outperform burst DPS.

5

Raid Team Setup

Optimal raid composition: 2 DPS units (one single-target, one AOE), 1 shield breaker, 1 crowd control. For cooperative raids, coordinate with teammates to cover different roles. Voice chat or Discord coordination significantly improves clear rates.

Tip: Join the official Discord to find raid groups. Coordinated teams clear 2x faster than solo players.

Smart Spending Tips

  • Raids reset every Monday — plan your week around which raid boss is active.
  • Demon Shard drop rate is only 0.5%, so expect 20+ clears on average. Be patient.
  • Use Sage Scroll artifact to boost upgrade effectiveness — raids reward max-upgraded units.
  • Weekly raid milestones give Gems and Stat Cubes even if you don't get artifact drops.
