To build an effective HP Burn team in Infinite Magicraid, pair at least one wide-area burn applicator with a single-target stacker or detonator, backed by two to three defensive supports. HP Burn deals true damage based on a percentage of the enemy's maximum health at the start of their turn, bypassing standard defense scaling. Because this damage over time requires several rounds to defeat high-health targets, survivability and precise turn order determine your team's success.
Core HP Burn Heroes and Synergies
An HP Burn composition relies on maintaining active burn stacks on targets without long skill cooldown gaps. Pairing a broad debuffer to clear waves alongside a dedicated boss detonator provides consistent damage across both multi-target and single-target encounters.
| Hero | Role | Key Function |
|---|---|---|
| Hezonja | Multi-Target Burner | Inflicts widespread burns while decreasing enemy defense to clear waves and stack debuffs on bosses. |
| Melia | Single-Target Detonator | Rapidly stacks burns on single targets and detonates active stacks for burst damage against bosses. |
| Asrina | Multi-Hit Burner | Applies burns through multi-hit abilities, serving as an accessible application engine for progression. |
| Anna | Burn Enabler & Control | Distributes burns while manipulating turn meters and providing crowd control to delay enemy threats. |
Team Structure and Defensive Support
Because HP Burn relies on percentage-based ticks rather than instant direct-damage burst, a glass-cannon setup will fail against sustained enemy attacks. Run either three supports with two burners, or two supports, one offensive buffer, and two burners.
- Shielding: Heroes like Wim and Katherine mitigate incoming burst damage. Wim's shields scale directly with his Defense, providing a barrier that keeps your burners alive during setup turns.
- Healing and Cleansing: Liz and Maya sustain team health while removing crowd control and defense debuffs. Liz also provides turn-meter boosts and Attack buffs to help cycle skills faster.
- Crowd Control: Using turn-meter reduction or slows delays enemy actions while burn stacks build, ensuring enemies take damage without overwhelming your team.
Turn Order and Gearing Priorities
HP Burn teams require exact speed tuning. If your detonator moves before your debuffer applies stacks, abilities are wasted.
Recommended Action Sequence
- Shielders and Crowd Controllers: Act first to establish protective barriers or delay high-threat enemies.
- Wide-Area Applicator (e.g., Hezonja, Asrina): Acts second to spread burns and debuffs across all enemies.
- Detonator or Single-Target Burner (e.g., Melia): Acts after the applicator to stack additional burns on primary targets or detonate existing debuffs.
- Dedicated Healers and Cleansers: Cycle health recovery and cleanse negative effects before the next round begins.
Stat Priorities
- Effect Hit: Your primary offensive requirement. Burns cannot apply if the hero fails to overcome the enemy's Effect Resistance. Always meet the dungeon floor's Effect Hit threshold first.
- Speed: Allows your team to apply burns and cycle defensive cooldowns before enemy waves take action.
- Survivability (HP% and Defense%): Essential on all units to endure multiple rounds of combat.
- Attack: Increases the maximum damage ceiling of each HP Burn tick, which is capped relative to the caster's Attack stat. Prioritize Attack only after securing sufficient Effect Hit and survivability.
Best Modes and Encounter Limitations
HP Burn setups excel in long, high-health battles where direct damage falls off against extreme defense or massive health pools. They are suited for high-tier Guild Boss battles, deep stages of Rum Dungeon, the Catacombs, Brave Trial, and matching faction floors in Tower of Mark.
Avoid pure HP Burn compositions in fast-paced Arena battles, where speed-cleave teams can eliminate your damage dealers before burns take effect. Additionally, avoid or manually control skills during encounters with bosses that frequently cleanse debuffs or gain debuff immunity. In cleansing encounters, hold your major burn abilities until immediately after the boss finishes its cleansing cycle.

The explanation is clear, especially for beginners.
This saved me time in the early game.
I wish I had read this before upgrading the wrong thing.
I tried this today and it worked better than my old setup.
