Crystal Beetle

Crystal Beetle is one of the 8 available Dream Realm bosses you will encounter in AFK Journey who was introduced to the game in Season 2. In this guide we will go over the boss mechanics and the best characters and teams to use against him.
What’s the meta team?
Realistically speaking, your meta team will depend on your specific box, and your account focus, so use your highest rarity DPS carry characters, along with whoever can best boost their damage. Try running Dual carry, as currently there is no way to boost a Hypercarry’s damage high enough to make it worth running only one. Keep faction bonus in mind but don’t run suboptimal characters just to force it.
Still, below you can find a few example teams. Big thanks to
