Since the Swarm Event launched on August 24th, players have been eager to find strategies to clear the event stages in under a minute. We’ve tried various unit combinations, gears, and curses. After extensive experimentation, we now have the ultimate Anime Rangers X Swarm Event team to help you achieve those quick clear times.
Best Anime Rangers X Swarm Event Team
The standout damage dealer of this team is Akuma. His passive ability significantly boosts DPS over time, making him a crucial member. In fact, Akuma’s DPS outshines even Borus in the Swarm Event. The supporting units offer essential buffs and debuffs while soaking damage, allowing Akuma to deal damage safely from the back lines.
Strategy Explained
The key to success with this strategy is ensuring Akuma remains unharmed. If he falls, his passive damage bonus resets, putting the team at a disadvantage. Thus, the setup includes Omega Dragonlord, Skeleton Knight, and Griffin for support, while Feral Fang and Leaf Ninja take on tanking duties against the boss.
As you step into the Swarm Event stage for the first time, make sure to set auto-upgrades for Akuma and Omega Dragonlord only. The strategy will run smoothly without additional inputs from you.
Expected Clear Times
The average clear times hover around 0:59 to 1:20 when using our optimized Swarm Event team. In the rare instances that Akuma gets taken out early, clear times may extend to approximately 1:40. However, this remains significantly quicker than most alternative strategies, which struggle to recover from a fallen Akuma. Clear times can vary further based on the specific curses rolled on your units.

Below are the necessary gears, traits, souls, and curses for this team strategy. It’s crucial to have C-rank on Speed and the Soul of Fire on Akuma. Alternatively, you can use The Soul of Thundering Fury, which can shave off around 20 seconds from your average clear time. The order of your units is also critical, as the unit positioned furthest to the right will receive auto-upgrades first.
