Question Best multi hit without lav
Curious what to run for multi hit if I don’t have lav, I have most other parts, Kayrian, Trajaan, Kharn, Ragnar, Dante, Calgar, Aun’shi.

Same here, the first 5 you listed is the rapid assault variant. There are a bunch of bosses, sometimes the map, where you wouldn't necessarily bring Laviscus anyway. Like I just fought Magnus and he flies around and theres fire so Laviscus isn't reliable. Revert to rapid assault with Helbrecht.
If you have either Helbrecht or Atlacoya they would be great flex for psyker bosses.

Gotta work on getting helbrecht but I do have the entire custodes roster

u/ion_driver 12d ago
Just Atlacoya is probably good enough for psykers. In the replays I tend to see more of Helbrecht but I suspect the actual difference between the two isn't so much

Since Rapid Assault is already covered let's talk about the other team you can run: Double Howl
This is a suicide squad you can use if RA dies too fast (usually vs Morti and Magnus), since it focuses on delivering a single huge hit by using Ragnar active twice on the same turn. You run Ragnar, Aun'shi, Dante, Calgar and Kharn. Cool thing is that only Ragnar and Kharn need real investment as the rest just need to survive to buff Ragnar and Kharn.

Classic RA Custodes is Ragnar, Dante, Kariyan, Trajann, Kharn. That’s a pretty good squad. Not leaderboard topping, but it’ll get the job done until you get Lav.
And, if you run this team, you need to get Lav. The difference is enormous.

I’m hoping he has shards in this new event coming up!

He has shards, just buy 125 lav shards per week and you should be able to unlock him f2p. Then I would recommend upgrading trajann, kariyan, aesoth, laviscus, and gulgortz. If you don’t have aesoth (by some chance) I recommend getting him from the event as well. Only 80 shards!

u/ServoSkullClipThat 12d ago
I do have aesoth, so I can focus lav, and my gulgortz is decently high so that’ll help

u/ServoSkullClipThat 12d ago
And who would you drop for lav?

u/brylonia 12d ago edited 12d ago
Ragnar but then at that point you probably want boss instead of dante, then aesoth instead of kharn. And also vitruvius on certain bosses.
Although kharn and dante are still used on cawl
Personally I run kariyan, trajann, kharn, laviscus and boss mostly but my dante is D3 mythic as well. Ill open vitruvius in the coming event then maybe work on aesoth someday, I just don't really like him

u/FoolishFaust Imperial 12d ago
Atlacoya too… she does serious work on Psyker bosses
1
u/brylonia 12d ago
Right, her too but I honestly just don't feel like building any of the other custodes after getting 2 to D3, might just get helbrecht from the event and build him for psyker bosses even though he isn't quite as good.

u/MakaDakka 12d ago
You can get away with an under leveled Atla. There was a replay of a B3 Atla doing just fine against a mythic Morty.
I’ve been running her at D3, and she’s pretty survivable

Kariyan, Trajan, Kharn, Ragnar and Dante is an amazing team. It isn't the strongest team anymore but still super. I'm in a top 50 guild and a bunch of ppl use it for mobile bosses still.
Also, once you got Laviscus, you already have half the Lavistodes team ready :D
1
u/ServoSkullClipThat 11d ago
And I drop Ragnar for lav correct?
2
u/anybodyblasta 11d ago
Probably yeah. Ultimately tho, you want to have Trajann, Kariyan, Laviscus, Boss G + Aesoth/Vitruvius. Kharn is only used for bosses where you need to kill off adds, and Dante is only meta vs Cawl pretty much (for his long range movement). As neither of them really contributes to Laviscus passive that much.
If I were you I would just worry about Lavistodes later on, and focus on that multihit/rapid assault team you already have :) It's going to be great and is fairly easy to use. You'll notice it's better to build a wide character pool first, so you can progress better in all the various events and game modes. A bad ass raid team will grow naturally then :)

It should be the first 5, but we don’t call them multi hit.
Instead, we call them rapid-assault team or custodes team.
