Cryptid Towers restrict which heroes can enter, so each tower needs its own build. These recommendations cover the available combinations rather than assuming every hero from the general formations can be used together.

Collection shorthand is linked to Core items: “Mask” means Golden Mask of Agamemnon, and “Wings” means Wings of Icarus.
Levels for the Towers
A Tower is a single-troop dungeon: every hero of that troop type goes in. Level the whole troop, not only your strongest heroes.
- Every hero: level 100–130
- UR and UR+: level 200+
- SSR: level 150. Do not ascend past it; the materials are needed for UR heroes.
- R and SR: level 120–130
Once everyone reaches these targets, keep the same gap between rarities and push the whole troop forward together.
Tower build
Pike Tower
Pike Tower is a crit tower, no doubt. You can also hybridize into pursuit, but DoT offerings are few, with only Gawain and Hector; Gawain is more useful here for his execute than for his DoT.
With Achilles and Guan Yu here, that's pretty much your DPS core; set up the rest to support them.
