In this guide for Dungeon Survivor 3: Dark Genesis, we will be mentioning some of the most avidly used formations in the game along with clarifying their uses. The formations have been curated from the sentiments shared by veterans of the game as well as the official wiki of Dungeon Survivor 3: Dark Genesis. Without further ado, let’s check out all the top formation used by players to progress efficiently.

Formation #1. Main Story Formation

This is the first formation, specifically targeted towards the new players who are looking to advance through the main storyline. Here are the characters included:

• Shadow Mage (Main Force)
• Plague Doctor (Main Force)
• Song of Eternal Hope (Support)
• Morning Star (Support)
• Alchemy Forgemaster (Support)
• Whisper Caster (Support)

Shadow Mage and the Plague Doctor are amazing AOE-targeted damage dealers that can significantly chunk down the hordes of enemies that are thrown at you in battles in the main story quests. The Whisper Caster can also remove debuffs from your allies if they get crowd controlled by enemies or bosses together. The Plague Doctor also makes use of the Unhealable debuff that can be used against bosses that regenerate their health.

Formation #2. Penetration Quick Attack

This is the second formation, specifically targeted towards the new players who are looking to advance through the PvP game modes. Here are the characters included:

• Nightingale (Main Force)
• Jesteress (Main Force)
• Goldshine Blade (Support)
• Whisper Caster (Support)
• Warning of War (Support)
• Navigator (Support)

The damage boost applied from War Cry can significantly boost the overall DPS output of both Nightingale and Jesteress. Both of their basic attacks can deal more damage, but their abilities remain the same. To counter death, we do have some great healers and cooldown reduction units such as Goldshine Blade and Whisper Caster. The team focuses on reducing the Action Interval time taken to cast skills while also increasing penetration damage. 

Formation #3. Slash War Cry

This is the third formation, specifically targeted towards the new players who are looking to advance through the dungeons. Here are the characters included:

• Dawn Knight (Main Force)
• Sword of Courage (Main Force)
• Morning Star (Support)
• Alchemy Forgemaster (Support)
• Dawn Bearer (Support)
• Navigator (Support)

Dawn Knight is known for her crazy critical hit rate buff for all allies with her War Cry passive. This makes sure that it creates a heavy DPS environment for your allies to maximize their DPS. Coupled with the Sword of Courage’s AOE-targeted damage dealing capabilities, the duo seems to be unstoppable. The core of this team is the War Cry/Slash damage from both the damage dealers. The supports exist only to enhance the DPS further.

Formation #4. Fire Team of Cloudless Sky

This is the fourth formation, specifically targeted towards the new players who are looking to advance through the PvP game modes. Here are the characters included:

• Fire of Torment (Main Force)
• Watcher (Main Force)
• Dawn Bearer (Support)
• Sanguine Squall (Support)
• Alchemy Forgemaster (Support)
• Whisper Caster (Support)

Sanguine Squall and Fire of Torment are not just lovers in lore but also in combat! They both synergize so well together, that they have created an entire formation revolving around them. Sanguine Squall’s ability Cloudless Sky benefits the overall damage output from Fire of Torment and boost his critical hit rate. The fire burst cloud created by Fire of Torment can further boost the damage dealt by Watcher.

Formation #5. Fire and Lightning Mages

This is the fifth formation, specifically targeted towards the new players who are looking to advance through the PvP game modes. Here are the characters included:

• Fire of Torment (Main Force)
• Origin Caster (Main Force)
• Dawn Bearer (Support)
• Bearsoul (Support)
• Alchemy Forgemaster (Support)
• Whisper Caster (Support)

This formation is specifically curated for PvP lovers to test out different team compositions. The idea of the formation is to reduce the overall Fire and Lightning resistance of enemies, thus enhancing the overall damage output of both Fire of Torment and Origin Caster. Higher the quality of equipment they have, the more damage they will deal. Bearsoul is there just to provide more critical hit rate to your damage dealers.
