What Is a Hybrid Fusion?
In previous fusion events, players were usually presented with two distinct formats:
- Classic Fusion, where you rank up specific champions to reach a target level
- Fragment Collector, where you gather shards over time to directly summon a champion
This time around, the Hybrid Fusion format blends both systems, offering a balanced but challenging approach.
To unlock Lysanthir Beastbane, you must collect four copies of Yuzan the Marooned, an Epic-tier champion. Each copy requires 100 Fragments, which can be earned by completing various tournaments and event activities during the fusion period. Once all four are secured, they must be ranked and ascended before fusing them into Lysanthir.
Is Lysanthir Beastbane Worth the Grind?
Absolutely — if you're looking to strengthen your roster with a flexible and powerful addition, this is one event worth investing in.
While the grind is real (and time-sensitive), the rewards speak for themselves. Lysanthir brings serious value to many team comps, especially those focused on dealing high burst damage or countering tough bosses.
One important note: unlike some past fusions, this Hybrid format doesn't allow you to skip the ranking and ascending process. You’ll have to fully upgrade each Yuzan before proceeding — so plan accordingly.
For Summon Rush players, it’s wise to stockpile shards and use a summon calculator to estimate your total points. This helps avoid opening rewards too early and falling short of the final goal.
The Hybrid system may add pressure, but it also provides a clear path to success — no RNG luck required (except for Summon Rush, naturally).
Final Tips for Success
- Stay organized: Track your progress daily and make sure you don’t miss any milestones.
- Manage energy wisely: Use it on the most efficient nodes or events offering the best fragment returns.
- Don’t rush: Wait until you're confident you can meet the full point threshold before claiming your reward.
Complete the event correctly, and you'll not only earn a valuable new champion but also significantly boost your overall account strength.
