Burst

When it comes to shorter bursts, the prevailing strategy is to use Nekomancer setups. Here, we fill up first the grid with the Core Titan weapons of Pillardriver and Landslide Scepter for all the cap up and supplmental they provide. Since most of the members will be staff prof, we can run Worldvexing Angelos for more normal cap and damage amp and Altruism-Soul Staff for more cap up. Lastly, we will fill out the final space with the strong damage mod of Fang of the Dragonslayer Mk II to be able to make the most of the assassin boosted normal attacks.

For Lucha or other setups that don’t fit in cleanly with a world weapon, you will run another Fang instead. Here, we have two fangs which can be either ATK or SPC awakened depending on the fight. Additionally, here we can swap the celestial to any other one that provides better coverage for your characters.

Last up is using the 150 GM weapon Hrunting. Here, we can use either Glorybringer or Berserker without any grid change. The main thing to note here is that with Hrunting, Fangs are even high value thanks to their ability to automatically trigger Hrunting’s bonus damage passive for every party member at the end of every turn.

First up, I’ll cover a setup for Manadiver with its large skill damage and teamwide bonus damage. The main drawback of Manadiver is it needs charge bar and as Earth you really want that Falsehood bonus damage. This will need to be compensated by using Pandemonium Gain Charge Bar Sped Up (70%, 3T). and 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.) . Here, since this is a shorter FA, we can go all in on offense and use and Bloodwrought Corals as the majority of the grid. Most of the other pieces can be subbed out based on needs. Tatjenen for example, is slotted for the teamwide bonus damage on CA. If you don’t plan to use that, then it can be replaced. For example, you can use an Earth Ultima dagger as MH and run three Corals instead.

As for Hrunting, things can be pretty similar. Below are two examples. One of a more general FA for many shorter content and the other from the past UnF that required much more defensive consideration.

The first is for shorter FAs typically 3-4 turns. Here, it is similar to a burst grid using Corals, Worldscathing Leon, and the Celestial Gateway-Star Sword as well as using a Fang of the Dragonslayer Mk II to activating echoes to everyone in the party thanks to Hrunting’s second skill.

The second is an example from NM250 FA. Here, we need to bring back Landslides for all the additional defense. In the toss up between Pillars and Corals, the latter actually won out especially for the HP component. The raid also had a requirement for 4m damage instances to lower stacks and make things things. In order to do that, they had to invest in skill damage via World Ender and Sagacity key to hit those damage instances.

Hard Content

When it comes to Hard Content, Earth’s setups are typically carried by its characters. They provide a ton of survivability resulting in a lot of freedom with one’s grid. Resultingly, Earth HL grids lean heavily on increasing cap up as much as possible.

The below example is a slightly modified Super Faa setup from ぴのん. Here we see the usual staple grid componts with Landslide Scepters also being great for the defense. Binds of The Hanged Man is slotted for free healing every turn. The focus on breaking cap up where possible is best seen in World Ender being used for more skill cap and Bloodwrought Coral for amplifed normal attacks and a bit more HP.

Hrunting is a staple in Earth HL thanks to a lot of reasons. The perma double strike providing more damage and making TA or hit count omens easier. Similarly, the free teamwide echoes every turn make is even easier to deal with hit count omens. The CA is also great thanks to the 2k DMG mitigation increasing surviability further.

The last note to cover is that Extremity key is pretty much always used in Earth when possible. The reasoning for this is to assist with consistent teamwide TA for the party with the normal attack boost being a great bonus that results in the highest possible damage output.
