Moving on, now that the weaknesses and resistances are known, let’s look at team comps that can be used to beat it. 

  • The Doomsday Beast is particularly weak to Fire, making it an essential element in a team comp

If a mono-Fire team needs to be run with Fire-based characters, such as Himeko, Asta, or Hook, it can be used in comps. Any healer, such as Natasha or Bailu, can be used here. 

Other than that, best characters, such as Asta, can be deemed pretty crucial for shield shredding, and on March 7th, Dan Heng and Natasha can be free-to-play units that can be used. Below are the best relics that can work for the characters in the fight against the Beast. 

Characters  Best Relics  Best Ornament Set
Himeko  Hunter of glacial frost  Space sealing station  
Asta Firesmith of lava forging  Fleet of the ageless
Hook Firesmith of lava forging  Space sealing station 
Bailu Passerby of wandering cloud  Fleet of the ageless 
Natasha Passerby of wandering cloud  Fleet of the ageless 
Dan Heng Eagle of Twilight line  Space sealing station 
March 7th Knight of purity palace  Belobog of the architects

Best Team Comp To Use

Regarding team comps, it’s better to build teams that use characters with elements Cocolia could succumb to. She is pretty weak to Fire; therefore, focus on bringing Fire-based characters, such as Himeko or Hook.

The Fire MC is also incredibly good at tanking damage from Cocolia’s attacks; therefore, stacking Defense on her/him and bumping up their overall defense is essential. Single-target DPSes such as Seele can work well, too, considering she can take more damage when Cocolia is weakened.

Therefore, using characters like Serval, Seele, or Himeko is viable, and healers can include Natasha or Bailu. Below mentioned are the recommended relic sets for these characters.

Characters  Best Relics  Best Ornament Set
Himeko  Hunter of glacial frost  Space sealing station  
Hook Firesmith of lava forging  Space sealing station 
Bailu Passerby of wandering cloud  Fleet of the ageless 
Natasha Passerby of wandering cloud  Fleet of the ageless 
Fire Trailblazer  Knight of purity palace  Belobog of the architects 
Qingque  The genius of brilliant stars  Celestial differentiator 
Serval  Band of sizzling thunder  Space sealing station
