Best Team Compositions for Khalipe

Recommended Team Setup

Position	Character
Main DPS/Shielder	Khalipe
Support	Mika
Sub-DPS	Haru

Khalipe works best with characters who use 2-cost or higher cards frequently because these cards trigger her Celestial effects for free. Mika provides AP recovery through her Source of Water card, which helps pay for Khalipe's expensive cards. Haru uses 2-cost attacks like Anchor Shot that automatically activate Khalipe's Vulture Ejection without spending extra AP, while also dealing strong single-target damage to cover Khalipe's weaker boss damage.

Alternative Team Members

Beryl	Can replace Haru as the damage dealer. She has multiple 2-cost cards with Retain effects that trigger Khalipe's Celestial cards reliably.

Amir	Can serve as sub-DPS focused on building shield-based teams through Metalization and her 2-cost cards.

Veronica	Provides efficient card draw to help Khalipe find her Vulture Ejection cards faster without using much AP.

Mika's Source of Water generates the AP Khalipe needs for her expensive setup cards. Whirlpool creates Wave stacks for more AP recovery. Haru's Anchor Shot is a 2-cost attack that triggers Khalipe's Celestial cards while dealing increasing damage with each use. Haru's Retain cards like Charge Energy work well with Khalipe's Overpower, which gives more shields based on cards in hand.

Ego Skill

Charisma of Resolve deals strong AoE damage and adds an extra Vulture Ejection to your deck for the rest of the battle.

Potential Upgrades

The most important potential upgrade is 3-1, which makes Upward Slash hit all enemies instead of just one target. This turns it into a viable AoE card for your deck.

Manifest Ego

The most impactful Manifest Ego stages are E2, E4, and E6. E2 guarantees you draw Vulture Ejection early by placing it on top of your deck at battle start. E4 stacks damage and shielding bonuses every time you trigger Silver Veil's AoE attack. E6 gives you two Silver Veil stacks at battle start and doubles the damage of Silver Veil's follow-up attack.

How to Play Khalipe in Chaos Zero Nightmare

Khalipe’s whole game plan is based on using her Vulture Ejection card and knowing how Celestial works. Vulture Ejection normally costs 3 AP, but you should never pay that. Because it has the Celestial tag, it plays for free whenever you use another card that costs 2 AP or more. It also has Retain, so once you draw it, it stays in your hand until you want to use it.

Each turn, your main goal is to draw Vulture Ejection and keep it in your hand, then use your 2-cost cards to trigger it for free. Rally is the best way to find Vulture Ejection because it always draws the highest-cost card in your deck, and that’s usually Vulture Ejection.

Once Vulture Ejection is in your hand, you just need chances to use 2-cost cards. Greatsword Aquila normally costs 1 AP, but when Vulture Ejection is in your hand, it becomes a 2-cost card and hits harder. This makes it great for triggering Vulture Ejection while also doing solid damage.

Each time Vulture Ejection activates, you get one Silver Veil stack. Silver Veil is Khalipe’s special resource that shows up as stacks under her portrait. When you hit three stacks, Khalipe automatically does a big attack that deals damage to all enemies based on her Defense (400%), then the stacks go back to zero. This attack is one of her strongest damage tools, so building Silver Veil fast is important.

Khalipe's damage benefits greatly from enemies being Vulnerable before she attacks. Most of her damage comes from one big hit per card, so making that hit deal extra damage through Vulnerable has massive impact. The Silver Veil follow-up attack also hits harder against Vulnerable enemies. Try to coordinate with teammates who can apply Vulnerable, or use Overpower's Epiphany that applies it after breaking enemies.
