Progression

The first goal for meat farming is being able to clear EX and EX+ in one turn. The easiest way to achieve this is with teamwide charge attacks. While there are a few ways to do this, the easier way is with Relic’s Limit burst. Although the setups below are fairly optimal for this level, they cover the basic methods to this level of OTK. For weaker grids, additional button presses for strong buffs or skills and summon calls may be needed to reach that one turn. Ultimately, the goal will be to reduce the button presses as much as possible to make meat farming faster, but having a reliable one turn kill is the highest priority.

From here on out, the way to improve OTKs is by reducing lockout, the time between turns. Different actions increase lockout with the bigest being from CA chains. The chain lockout reduces with fewer CAs with a 4 chain being significantly more than 3 chain. Using the extra 10% starting charge from the wonder for unlocking every eternal, eternals can start with 100% charge with double Huanglong and crew buffs with zero button presses. Any charge behind them will also CA unless they have reduced charge gain. This is the core to 0B3C, 0B2C, and 0B1C setups. Alternatively, chains can be avoided altogether with a single button press or a strong summon call. Due to avoiding a chain, they can be faster 2C.

In the final stages, ping plays the greatest inhibitor in going faster. Outside JP ping, any of these will be the fastest you can go. But with, the way to improve is to further shave off actions. Tag team only, no boss action, and reducing the number of characters are among the main ideas thrown for the fastest setups.

Lockout

Lockout, as stated before, is the time between actions the player that they are unable to perform another action. Lockout variest heavily on the type of actions performed. This also carries between battles. So with a high enough lockout and fast enough reset between battles the player will limited by this time they can’t perform an action. This is most notcible with CA chains where even with bad ping it is easy to run into lockout.

Below is a table showing how to calculate lockout for those interested in figuring their exact lockout.

Setups

2B4C

Relic Buster provides a very easy way for full teamwide charge thanks to Limit Burst All allies gain Charge Bar, C.A. DMG Boosted (1 time), and C.A. DMG Cap Boosted (1 time) based on number of Machine Cell.
(Consumes all Machine Cell.) . This provides the base for the most basic form of OTK. Character selection is very flexible. Additional buttons or summon calls can be added as needed for weaker grids

1B4C

Having main and support Huanglong along with the crew buffs provides 90% charge to everyone. Using Full Arsenal III or Splitting Spirit Convert caster’s HP to charge bar (3% charge bar for every 250 HP consumed, up to 100% charge bar).
(Consumes up to 50% of current HP.) you can 4C with only a single button press.

0B3C

An upgraded way to use the 90% charge from double huanglong is using the 10% charge from the Eternal Wonder on Tien to launch a 3C without any button presses.

1B2C Shion

Shion is a strong CA character with many gimmicks towards Katana characters and Katanas in grid. By maxing these bonuses, she does enough damage via her skill 2 Tempura Flurry 300% Fire damage to a foe (Damage cap: ~350,000).
Gain Charge Bar (20%).
(Number of activations increased based on number of katana-specialty allies in party [Max: 6].) and charge attack.

Notes

• All characters other than Shion can be subbed with other Katana characters.

0B2C

Upgrading to 0B2C requires using much stronger characters. Esser provides little for OTK requiring the other characters to compensate for her.

Notes

• Elmott can be replaced by any nukes on auto characters.
• Izmir can be replaced by or Shion.

0B0C1S

Calling Beelzebub is much easier than 0B2C thanks to both taking out a large chunk HP as well as the strength of the Bore debuff. Additionally, despite the call it is faster as well due to lower lock. Make sure to use a short animation skin like Rose Queen or Bellringer Angel].

1B0C

The fastest setup available this year is using 900% Fire damage to all foes (Damage cap: ~1,020,000).
All Fire allies gain Fire ATK Up (100%, 1T) and Bonus Fire DMG (1 time) (30%, 1T).
All Fire allies instantly perform a normal attack without using up a turn.
(Consumes King’s Blaze after activation.) . It is faster than a traditional 0C because free auto skills like it and Tag Team All allies instantly perform a normal attack without using up a turn. use skill lock. Additionally it is easier than 0B0C thanks to the large nuke, fire attack, and echoes.
