Recommended Skill Sets

Thorn Skin Counterattack Archetype

Playstyle

Physical tank counter, actively drawing physical attacks, utilizing Thorn Skin reflect damage + Earth Crit stacking, finishing with low-cost dual physical skills in the late game

Why this set works

Maximizes the thorn damage mechanic of trait Thorn Skin, actively taking damage through high Physical Defense and damage reduction skills, while Earth Crash strengthens with hit count, forming a counter-attack rhythm that grows stronger in battle.

Earthshatter Strike

Why pick this skill

Core damage skill with permanently decreasing Energy cost based on hits taken. Synergizes with the trait Thorn Skin—the more hits taken, the higher the damage and lower the Energy cost, perfectly fitting the tank-counter role.

Spike Shield

Why pick this skill

A powerful damage reduction counter with 70% reduction + reduces enemy's Physical Attack by 70% when countering; greatly boosts survival while weakening enemy physical output, creating space for Rock Smash stacking

Stone Skin Technique

Why pick this skill

Defense buff skill, +160% Physical Defense greatly boosting physical toughness, though -60% Magic Defense can be mitigated by positioning away from magic attackers, post-buff better withstands physical damage to trigger trait counter-damage.

Tackle

Why pick this skill

High energy cost Physical skill, permanently -1 energy cost at turn end, becomes low-cost high-power output after early setup, forms dual Physical damage security with Rock Smash.

Anti-stall

Playstyle

Use Stone Lock to block the opponent from switching pets, reinforce Physical Defense with Balanced Stance to hold the field, let Earthquake deal burst damage under Counter state, and use Burrow to avoid fatal damage while triggering Earthquake's double power

Why this set works

Stone Lock blockade serves as the core, paired with Earth Collapse's counter-burst and Heavy Momentum's physical defense boost for field pressure, Burrow provides critical survival and status trigger method.

Stone Lock

Why pick this skill

Core control + damage skill. Low 50 Energy Cost, applies 3-turn No Switch effect, can block opponent's defensive switching, creating output environment for self.

Sinkhole

Why pick this skill

Defense boost + attack skill: power doubles and Physical Defense gets an extra boost under Counter state; combine with Stone Lock lockdown for burst damage, offering both offense and survivability

Burrow

Why pick this skill

50% damage reduction + retreat counter skill. Can avoid critical damage and leave the battlefield, creating Counter state trigger conditions for Earth Trap, enhancing skill synergy.

Junshi

Why pick this skill

Enhances Physical Defense at the cost of Speed: +140% Physical Defense greatly increases tankiness, while -30 Speed has limited impact on Stone Spikard's already low speed, making it more suitable for sustained field output.

Iron Wall Survival Build

Playstyle

Build nearly unbreakable Physical Defense with multiple damage reduction counter skills, use Rockfall as interspersed damage, and rely on the Thorn Skin Trait for reflect damage and opponent attrition to win.

Why this set works

Extreme Survival Capability: Through Harden, Blood Aura, and Thorn Shield triple damage reduction reaction skills, nearly immune to physical damage. Rock Drop serves as low-cost damage output interspersed throughout.

Hardening

Why pick this skill

90% high damage reduction counter skill, Energy -2 if last used attack skill, can form cycles with Rockfall/Earth Fissure and other attack skills, taking almost no damage

Blood Qi

Why pick this skill

60% damage reduction + fatal survival Counter skill. Survives fatal damage with 1 HP. Forms double insurance with Harden, greatly improving margin for error.

Rockfall

Why pick this skill

Low-cost physical damage output: 1 hit stable damage, synergizes with Harden to form an attack→harden→attack cycle, with Harden's reduced energy cost becoming nearly free.

Spike Shield

Why pick this skill

70% damage reduction + lowers enemy Physical Attack when countering. Forms triple damage reduction system with Harden and Blood Qi. Weakens opponent when countering, making them harder to break through defenses.

Notes
  • Stone Thorn Lizard is an Earth-attribute Physical Defense specialized creature, with the trait Thorn Skin allowing it to reflect damage when hit, suitable as a physical tank and counter-attacker
  • Base stats: Physical Defense 85 is high, but Magic Defense 59 is low. Care must be taken to avoid Magic Attackers.
  • Speed 80 is moderately below average, more suitable for back-foot counter rather than speed racing
  • Skill pool focuses on Physical damage and Defense buffs, lacking recovery options. Sustainability relies on damage reduction and trait-based counter damage.
