Rune Builds
I recommend going
Despair/Revenge(Spd/Hp% or Atk%/Hp% or Acc%). With her attack power being rather average, I would much rather her become a stun bot for ToA or in PvP. Her ability to stop strong monsters from using their skills with cooldowns will come in handy vs monsters like Chasun/Ritesh or any non fire threat. I don’t recommend going Rage/Blade due to her low attack power. Try to get as much Hp% and Acc% substats so she can land her debuffs.
Important substats: Spd, Acc%,Hp%, Atk%
Tower of Ascension Viability
Lupinus is a great monster for ToA normal and hard with the despair set. Her base hp pool is decent and if you went with Spd/Hp%/Hp%, she will be durable and can withstand attacks from ToA hard monsters.
If you don’t have Veromos yet and you need a stunner in ToA, she does the job pretty well.
Giants and Dragons B10 Viability
Lupinus can be used in Giants B10, but there are better candidates than her[insert any wind damage dealer]. I suggest you only use her for the Necropolis if you need a multi hitter.
She is not Dragons B10 material.
Arena and Guild Wars Viability
Lupinus is a niche monster in both arena and guild wars for stunning and also stopping good monsters like Chasun/Theomars from using their vital skills at the right time.
I don’t see her used too often outside of that due to her low speed and limited offensive capabilities.
Conclusion: Feed
She can be a viable stunner with utility. I think she isn’t strong enough to warrant you to 6 star her at all unless you really need that skill usage prevention. Plenty of monsters like Julien, Woochi and Lushen will outperform her in many areas of the game.]]>
