· Bleed teams are broadly divided into two types: Blood Fiend and Kurokumo.

· Blood Fiend Team: It's more important to focus on accumulating 'Blood Festival' than maintaining Bleed count. Even with just 10 potency and a few counts on the enemy, you can see great effects.
· Kurokumo Team: It's recommended to accumulate Bleed stacks using Rodion's 'Crimson Desire' EGO. Some bosses may attempt up to 14 clashes per turn, making it difficult to maintain Bleed stacks, but you can accumulate sufficient stacks and supply 'Blood Festival' through Ring Pointlist Shang or Longing Mirkala EGO.
· Kurokumo teams may find it somewhat challenging to use the 'Crimson Desire' EGO due to difficulty in acquiring Gluttony resources. However, the entire team can collectively inflict a decent Bleed count, which is sufficient for maintaining stacks and dealing Bleed damage.
· Quick Summary:
· Blood Fiend Team: Effective in multi-target combat.
· Kurokumo Team: A team for fun, and can be utilized in single-target combat.
