Vanadis help

[Sader]

I'm a little puzzled about how to play vanadis.
Are there any guides for each of her classes?

I'd appreciate some information on each class, such as best strategy to go for, cards and items, per class, and best way to play each one of her classes too.

Upgrade your base class cards. They're all very powerful.

Boar - makes your attacks multi-hit pierce
If you can get Amulet of Orc, you have a run
Volcano and Sore Spot are good cards to get, apart from that you can honestly win with upgraded base deck.
P.S. aim for Elven Archer event for class item and quicker deck upgrade

Fox - makes your attacks draw 2
If you get her class-item weapon, it scales ridiculously well with anything
Combo Fox with Obedience
You can get ridiculous amounts of bleed
Just Basic attack until full hand > Obedience > Summon Fox > regular attacks with Fox and you can stack hundreds of bleed in a turn
Her class-item bow also just makes any build good, to be honest.

Crow - I haven't found an OP build with this, I think, but I did beat Millenis with Crow
I had the immunity at the cost of max HP for survivability
Deal damage on Concentration gain + Frost build for damage (wasn't great)
Volcano + Damage on Concentration + Concentration on Damage for multi-hit shenanigans against final boss (not consistently quick enough to clear regular encounters without taking damage, and spending max HP on regular encounters is kinda meh)
Not amazing (I had 15 max HP on the final fight, so can no longer use immunity card, it was basically my last turn before death), but hey, it worked
Didn't get the jab spam card on this run because I messed up my routing, but Volcano is a good replacement for it anyways

Haven't tried the last one

is amulet of orc a special drop from a specific enemy or a random drop?

what's good about volaco btw? I need to be able to inflict burning for volcano to shine, no?

[Frenzy85]

Orc Amulet is random, but just something to look out for with multi-hit builds. You rack up strength extremely fast.

Volcano has lots of hits.
Hitting a lot of hits is required for some fights.
Many hits also combos well with plenty of stuff.
Burn on hit, as you mentioned, but also concentration on hit and strength. It's just a generally good card, I've found.

volcano is nice on raven vanadis as she can stack a lot of fire / frost debuffs with her upgraded base attacks
another nice card for this is "fan the flames", which is the pet side of the rather useless flame card. While flame is extremely situational in only working if the enemy has at least 1 but below 10 burning stacks, the upgraded pet side "fan the flames" spreads 2 times the targets current burning debuffs on all targets (meaning it triples the burning debuff on the main target)
combining those two cards lead to some mutliattacks with decent damage.
though it will never reach the ridicules hights of the foxes bleeding build as you need more prep/ cardluck to get high stack amounts and burning debuffs half in strength each turn instead of losing only 1 stack like bleed does.

her pet upgrade gives her more charges to summon and retreat the raven (and she starts out with 5 charges instead of the usual 3), combined with the ravens passives (taking only 1 dmg from the first two hits and inflicting frost debuff on all enemies depending on your connection when you call the raven) and the passive part of the pet side of the upgraded base attack cards, this subclass is intended to call and recall your pet frequently during combat.

so far I've found the 4th class to be the hardest, only manage to win with it (during challenges) if I get lucky with some set or items, I do not get the class at all

[Frenzy85]

4th one...
Her basic deck is a lot worse than the rest, I think...?

There's some interesting synergy with maxHP consumed cards since the pet's basic attack can scale max HP.
The Will to Live | Survival Instinct is crazy good on the 4th class.
Gain Immunity. Reduce maximum HP until the end of battle. Infinite uses of Immunity!

I basically try to survive the first few turns and just scale max HP + Balm using the basic cards asap.
