Santik Build Guide - Skills, Modules, Teams | Etheria: Restart

Santik is a Reason-element SSR support introduced in Etheria Restart SS2, specializing in massively boosting team CRIT Rate and CRIT DMG. Thanks to his unique scaling passive, he excels in long-duration PvE content, where his value grows exponentially as battles go on.

This guide provides a complete breakdown of Santik’s core mechanics, skills, gear, Shell choices, and team recommendations, helping you quickly determine whether he fits your roster and playstyle.

 

 

Managing multiple team builds and experimenting with different character setups in Etheria Restart can quickly become time-consuming, especially when switching between accounts slows down your progress. With OSLink’s multi-instance auto-grind features, you can run multiple game sessions at once—letting resource stages and daily tasks progress simultaneously, with less manual input, steady progression, and more time to focus on team planning and strategy.

 

 

I. Role & Core Mechanics

Role Overview

Santik is a damage-amplifying support centered entirely around critical hits. His primary function is to enhance allies’ CRIT Rate and CRIT DMG, significantly raising overall team DPS rather than dealing damage himself.

He performs best alongside characters who attack frequently and can trigger critical hits consistently.

 

 

Core Mechanic

Santik’s strength lies in his passive ability Frenzy Beat:

• Whenever an ally lands a critical hit, they recover HP.
• The first critical hit each turn permanently increases team-wide CRIT DMG.
• This bonus can stack up to 20 times.

 

Because these stacks are permanent within the battle, Santik becomes stronger the longer a fight lasts. In extended encounters, his value scales dramatically, providing both sustained damage amplification and survivability.

 

II. Skill Breakdown & Upgrade Priority

Skill Breakdown

Skill 1 — Noisewraith

 

Deals damage to a single enemy, dispels debuffs from an ally, and enables the passive Frenzy Beat.

This skill is critical because Frenzy Beat is the foundation of Santik’s entire kit.

 

 

Skill 2 — Pulsehowl

 

Attacks all enemies with a chance to increase their skill cooldowns while also reducing their CRIT Rate and Effect ACC.

The base trigger chance is relatively low, making Effect ACC an important stat investment if you want this skill to function consistently, especially in PvP.

 

 

Skill 3 — Blastaemon

 

Dispels up to three debuffs from all allies, then grants the entire team increased CRIT Rate and CRIT DMG.

After casting, Santik immediately gains an extra action turn, allowing him to follow up quickly,  most commonly by using Pulsehowl to further weaken enemies while maintaining offensive momentum.

 

 

Skill Upgrade Priority

511 → 515 → 555

• Skill 1 first - Frenzy Beat scaling is the top priority.
• Skill 3 second - Maxing it reduces cooldown and improves buff uptime.
• Skill 2 last - Utility increases are relatively minor.

 

 

III. Module Matrix Recommendations

Recommended Sets

12× Bloodbath + 8× Swiftrush + 6× Swiftsmite

A universal PvE/PvP setup that balances survivability with speed, allowing Santik to buff and cleanse early.

 

 

12× Swiftrush + 8× Bulwark + 6× Swiftsmite

A high-speed PvE setup when survivability is not an issue, focusing on faster Frenzy Beat stacking.

 

 

12× Timeweave + 8× Swiftrush + 6× Evolguard

Optimized for high-pressure PvE content. Improves cooldown cycling, Effect ACC, and team sustain when paired with healing Shells.

 

 

Stat Priorities

Main Stats

CRIT Rate

Effect ACC

HP

 

Sub Stats

SPD > Effect ACC > HP = DEF

 

IV. Shell Recommendations

1. Alicorn

PvP-oriented Shell. Cleanses debuffs before action and boosts Effect RES, preventing Santik from being controlled.

 

 

2. Jackal Guard

Boosts speed and turn progression, ensuring early buffs and cleanses. Excellent synergy with the Swiftrush set.

 

 

3. Halloween

Reduces cooldowns and accelerates skill rotations. Best paired with the Timeweave set in PvE.

 

 

V. Team Compositions

PvE Teams

Liliam + Plume + Ninfoniel + Santik

• Liliam acts as the main DPS with a naturally high CRIT Rate
• Multiple multi-hit skills rapidly stack Frenzy Beat
• Santik amplifies CRIT DMG to devastating levels over time

 

 

PvP Teams

Raymerry + Kokardi + Santik + Mizusumi Aya

• Santik’s CRIT buffs ensure Kokardi’s passive triggers consistently
• Kokardi further boosts team CRIT Rate, accelerating Frenzy Beat stacks
• Raymerry steals enemy SPD on crits, enabling fast clean-up

 

 

VI. Pull Recommendations

For PvE Players

Santik is an excellent PvE support across nearly all modes.

His CRIT-based healing allows some teams to skip a dedicated healer, focusing entirely on offense.

Strongly recommended for PvE-focused players.

 

For PvP Players

Santik is usable but not meta-defining in PvP.

He lacks the immediate impact of hard counter units and is more of a flex option than a priority pick.

 

VII. Final Thoughts

Santik is a top-tier long-fight enabler, offering permanent scaling CRIT DMG and reliable sustain through critical hits. He shines brightest in teams built around frequent attacks and stable CRIT triggers, where his Frenzy Beat can fully stack and dominate extended battles.

Whether you’re pushing PvE content, climbing the PvP ladder, or simply aiming to optimize resource farming, multi-instance automation remains one of the most efficient solutions. OSLink delivers a smooth and stable multi-account experience, allowing all your accounts to grow in parallel without added workload. Set up your grind flow properly, and character progression becomes far more manageable—putting the pace of Etheria Restart firmly in your hands.
