Riptide
EpicLate-Act 6 water pusher - Cupid + Shogun + Tidal Crest.
Riptide shows up in Act 6, Stage 2 (Riptide) at level 2. The enemy rotates through 3 auras: Cupid, Shogun's Wrath, Tidal Crest. The game randomizes which aura the enemy casts each turn — plan for the worst-case Critical, not the expected roll.
Counter strategy: bring a Epic-tier aura or better. Their aura pool leans Water element, so a matching-element aura (that also gets biome + gem luck bonuses) hits hardest. Rewards: 250× Fragment, 3250 EXP. Repeat clears drop the same items at reduced XP.

Counter strategy
Bring a Epic-tier aura or higher. Enemy top aura is Rare-tier, so anything one tier above generally out-damages them.
Water element bias in enemy kit means matching-element attackers get biome and gem luck stacks. Chain a Divine Potion + matching element gem + matching biome window for maximum damage swing.
Critical skill accuracy sits at 70% — miss and you eat the wind-up cost. Save Critical for the enemy's slow rotation frame, use Normal skill on the pre-cast turns.
Stage rewards
Clear Riptide to unlock: 250× Fragment, 3250 EXP. First clear grants full XP, repeat clears drop reduced XP but full item yield.
Farm-friendly enemy for topping up Fragments and Shards during Battlepass quest windows.
