Anime Final Strike Raids Guide
Clear multi-phase bosses for the fragments Infinite cannot give.
Raids are cooperative boss challenges for roughly 2–4 players and the main pipeline for evolution materials. If Infinite fills your gem wallet, Raids fill your crafting bags. For Update 5 Ichigo Mask farming, use the dedicated Boss Rush Nightmare guide instead of treating every boss mode as a classic raid.
What raids demand
Each raid features a multi-phase boss with mechanics that punish low DPS walls. Recommended power levels matter — undergeared parties wipe mid-phase. Bring burst, sustain, and at least one economy plan if the raid allows placements over time.
Study unit roles on best units and secret units. Update 5 SS DPS shines here, but coordinated A-tier evolved Mythics still clear with good placement.
Rewards worth the queue
- Evolution materials and fragments
- Raid Tokens for the Raid Shop
- Stat Engrams on some clears
- Progress toward recipes in evolve units
Secret Fragments often rely on Raid Shop stock. Skip raids and you stall Secret evolutions like Vesh paths.
Team building for raids
Use the raid template inside team builder. Typical needs:
- High single-target or burst DPS for phase checks
- AoE for add waves if present
- Support amps / shields when available
- Traits tuned via reroll traits (The One, Frenzy, Emperor)
Communicate focus targets in Discord parties (Discord links). Free private servers help practice timings.
Preparation checklist
- Evolve core DPS and farm units.
- Roll acceptable traits.
- Stock healing/consumables if the mode uses them.
- Confirm raid season notes on events and latest updates.
- Warm up placements in Story or Infinite.
Common wipe causes
Ignoring phase transitions, placing all towers too early without economy, bringing pure farm comps with no boss damage, and entering before Story unlocks recommended power. New players should finish getting started first.
After the clear
Spend tokens the same day if Secret Fragments rotate. Craft immediately so the next session can evolve. Then return to farm gems to fund the next duplicate pulls.
Raids are the bridge between mid-game and true endgame showcases. Schedule them weekly even when Infinite feels more AFK-friendly.
Callouts worth learning
Simple voice or text callouts win more raids than silent overlapping ultimates. Call phase changes, add spawns, and when to hold burst. If a teammate’s farm unit is underleveled, say so before the run, not after the wipe. Assign who spends Raid Tokens afterward so Secret Fragments are not forgotten in the excitement. When queues are long, practice the same placement opener in a private server Story map to keep muscle memory warm. Bring a backup DPS if your SS unit is on cooldown traits or unfinished stats. After victory, screenshot the reward panel for your fragment ledger.
Field notes 1 — Raids Guide
Use Raids Guide as a procedure, not lore. Walk the steps once slowly in a free private server, then repeat at full speed. If a step fails, identify whether the blocker is currency, unit power, or UI knowledge. Layer 1 adds a deliberate pause after the midpoint of the guide to check inventory before continuing into spend-heavy actions.
Field notes 2 — Raids Guide
Use Raids Guide as a procedure, not lore. Walk the steps once slowly in a free private server, then repeat at full speed. If a step fails, identify whether the blocker is currency, unit power, or UI knowledge. Layer 2 adds a deliberate pause after the midpoint of the guide to check inventory before continuing into spend-heavy actions.
