I don't think there is a "best form". There are too many factors that can affect this such as hit rating, crit values, mage misses, and the luck factor.
I just know there are better forms out there, just from analyzing the formations used, based on die order and attack order.
Here is what others (Mattp and others on his realm) are using at 500mil power range level:
X X Aphro
X X Main
Lance Prophet Cienna
Sub 1: Shayd
Sub 2: Thuc
Or you can swap Cienna and Aphro (depending on who is a better stunner based on their runes and saints)
wrong, you dont get it. once you got to the max rounds its about how to max your damage within the 30 rounds. so its not based on teh better stunner but on who does more overall damage. so if your cianna does 250k damage and aphro 300k but misses every 5th hit, its easy math.
Based on those numbers, then Cianna and Aphro are EXACT SAME and don't matter which one you use.
Well, I guess Cianna can crint like every 10th hit.
But nobody can reach 30 rounds consistently. So having better stunners do help, by increasing the probability that you do reach round limit.

You have the perfect set up Riot. I am also using Lance to die last.. even if stunners fail in the end.. Lance ends up with a double hit at the end.. Herja or Prophet keep Lance from builing up morale on Cerb / Baal til the very end. I've tried it the other way, and unfortunatley if you have Herja set up to die to soon, and your stunners fail.. then they all will die at once instead of whittling down to the last hero standing. And its a really big deal when your Lance can deal over 1 million crit damage on the final hit.

no its not. first of all he said this is what others use and its bad. you really want lance to die last, BUT have aphro die 2nd last. the reason for that being is that in this setup the last 3 who die are in this order: cianna > prophet > lance
first of all this is antiquated because since this formation was used, cianna got nerfed twice and used to stun like 9/10 times and now more like 1/4. however that is not the only problem. in this formation, after cianna dies you have no more stunner, so the number of hits on lance are restricted. if you however change the order for the last heroes to die into something like ezk>aphro>lance then lance will most likely get several extra rounds to hit the boss
ofc you would simply replace the aphrodite slot with shayd and ezk with herja....
edit: you say "this formation works for you best" that includes aphro, 2 subs and ezk but complaining about my small change not doable because you dont have aphro is kinda hypocrite, dont you agree?
ps: if you would have gotten aphro in casino you would be upset because you wont be able to use her until your title allows it
