Should You Pull for Trude?
Recommended for Tanky Physical Teams

Trude excels in Physical and Tank teams as a scaling, high-durability AoE Physical Attacker. She becomes extremely powerful once her Crit Rate reaches 100% at Transcendence 6, so we recommend progressing her transcendence as much as possible if you plan to use her in PvP.
Trude - Rating & SkillsGreat Synergy with Lu Bu

Trude is a character who also performs well in Physical teams featuring Lu Bu, who was added recently. She is useful when you want to create a physical team with high durability to counter enemy physical teams.
Should You Pull for Lu Bu?Recommended for Guild War Teams
In Guild War, she is effective as a counter to high-damage heroes like Kyle and Yeonhee. Additionally, her Universal type makes her a good match for Gelidus, making her a recommended character for those who want to focus on Guild War.
Should You Pull for the Costume Summon?
Pull If You Want the Costume or Special Illustrations

By obtaining the Rockstar Costume through the Costume Summon, you can get Trude's Rockstar Costume, profile image, frame, effect, 2D animated illustration, and special skill animations, voices, and lobby scenarios. If you want these items, you should pull for them.
Rerun After Initial Banner is Unknown
Legendary Costumes that appeared in the past currently cannot be unlocked with Rubies. Although the possibility of resale is mentioned, the timing is undecided, so we recommend pulling for it now if you want it.
Required Rubies Increase with Each Summon
| Summons | Rubies Required |
| 1st Time | Free |
| 2nd Time | 1,000 |
| 3rd Time | 2,000 |
| 4th Time | 3,000 |
| 5th Time | 4,000 |
| 6th Time | 5,000 |
| 7th Time | 6,000 |
| 8th Time | 6,000 |
| 9th Time | 6,000 |
As the number of summons increases, the required Rubies also increase. Since the drop rate for the Rockstar Costume is low, decide how far to pull considering that up to 33,000 Rubies may be required at maximum.

Strategy: Pulling Partway for Tickets and Materials
It is also an option to pull partway specifically for summon tickets and materials. If you are lucky, you might obtain the Rockstar Costume, and even if not, getting 40 Hero Summon Tickets for 1,000 Rubies on the second pull is better value than usual summons.
Trude's Best Content
Trude PvP/PvE Quick Reference
| Character | Evaluation | PvP / PvE Rating |
|---|---|---|
Trude | [Tier Ranking]![]() Top-tier (Meta) [Ranking T0] ![]() Transcend is Highly Recommended [Reroll Tier] ![]() | [Arena]![]() Top-tier (Meta) [Guild War] ![]() Near-meta Level [Infinite Tower] ![]() Top-tier (Meta) |
Trude is a durable, late-blooming, wide-area Physical attacker effective in PvE and PvP. She excels as a Tank team attacker in PvP and is valuable in Adventure and Infinite Tower for wide-area attacks. She is also suited for Ruby and Nightmare farming.
Impact of Trude on the Current Meta
Increase in Tanky Physical Teams
Trude has great synergy with Lu Bu's Physical team. Including her makes the team more durable, providing an advantage in battles between Physical teams. Her arrival may lead to an increase in tanky Physical teams.
Point! | Including the high-durability Trude is beneficial as it makes it easier to prevent continuous activation and Execution from Lu Buand Branze & Bransel. |
Already Replacing Kyle in Many Teams
Due to the prevalence of Physical teams, Trude is already being seen replacing Kyle in many compositions. Some players also place her in slots previously occupied by Elysia or Ace to increase the number of attackers, balancing both damage and survivability.
Increase in Tanky Physical Teams Favors Tank Teams
The downside of a tanky Physical team is that it becomes difficult to overpower Tank teams with pure damage. Therefore, if tanky Physical teams increase due to Trude's addition, we may see a rise in Tank teams in response.
Trude's Team Setup and Alternatives
Perfect for Tank Parties
She's recommended as an attacker in a tank party to leverage her high durability. You can either add her to the existing Heroes or swap her with a Hero like Platin.
Alternative Heroes are Platin and Karma

As an alternative, Platin, who is also used in tank parties, can be considered. With similar traits such as high durability, wide-range damage, and self-sufficiency, he is a strong replacement option.
Tips! | Platin is a highly sought-after Hero in both Physical and Magic parties, capable of managing the Front Row alone. Swapping him into this slot is a strong option for Total War. |
|---|
Best Paired with Karma

Karma can also serve as a replacement in a tank party attacker role. However, his strong synergy with Trude, including Damage Resistance, healing, and Universal-type damage boosts, makes it recommended to use them together rather than swapping him out.
Alternative Wide-Range Hero: Teo

As a wide-range Physical Crit attacker, Teo can also be considered an alternative Hero. While Trude lacks Immortality or a cooldown, she surpasses Teo in durability.
