Madoka Magica Magia Exedra Build Guide & Team Comps
Written by Jason B.
This Madoka Magica Magia Exedra build guide and team comps breakdown shows the best team setups to use early on, which units to prioritize, and how to progress without wasting materials or stamina. Build around one strong team and you'll reach Nightmare without rerolling again.
Here’s how to do it right from the start.
Best Team Build for Early Progression
Use a team with 1 attacker, 2 breakers, 1 support, and 1 sustain. This format clears every main story chapter, beats Battler mode, and survives most Nightmare bosses.
Breakers remove enemy defense. Support helps cycle turns or boosts damage. Sustain keeps your DPS alive. Attacker finishes the job. It’s simple and efficient.
Recommended Units to Build First
Homura is the ideal attacker. She follows up when enemies are broken, hitting multiple times each turn without needing to go first. Here’s a build guide for Homura specifically if you’re interested.
Madoka (Lux Magia) is a free breaker. Her skill activates when the team uses five total skills, making her perfect for triggering Homura’s follow-ups.
Pluvia Madoka is a reliable breaker with good uptime and utility. Her skills fit cleanly into most team setups, keeping the break gauge under control while helping with overall team flow.
Yui Tsuruno is a strong support with party-wide crit and speed buffs.
Yuma is a healer who targets three allies and clears debuffs. She covers all basic sustain needs early on.
If you don’t have Yui, sub in Kokoro or Sana. Focus on surviving first, then add damage buffs once stable.
Best Madoka Magica Magia Exedra Team Comps
Manual Story Team:
Homura, Madoka, Pluvia, Yui, Yuma
High break uptime. Safe healing. Easy rotation of buffs and skills.
Auto Farm Team:
Homura, Madoka, Pluvia, Kokoro, Yuma
No skill spam from supports. Reliable uptime. Best for stamina dump.
Nightmare Boss Team:
Homura, Madoka, Yui, Sana, Yuma
Double sustain. Enough SP to keep buffs and healing consistent. Damage is slower but safer.
Each comp uses the same format. Pick what fits your box and rotate based on the stage.
Upgrade and Farming Tips
Level your Magic stat first. Upgrade your attacker, then breakers. Delay upgrading supports or defenders unless needed.
Only farm when stuck. Most early drops are low efficiency and will be replaced.
Save stamina until Puella Pictura above Rank 42. At that point, you unlock Tier 2 rainbow shards and better class mats. Rank 54 unlocks Tier 3 elemental shards. Anything before that is mostly filler.
Use the PvP shop, event shop, and beginner quests to stock up on shards and orbs. Prioritize your DPS’s element and rainbow first. Never waste currency on gear until your core team is built.
Break Mechanics and Combat Flow
Break right after the enemy acts. It delays their next turn longer and gives more break value.
Skills and ultimates should always be used during break. Damage outside of break is weak.
If possible, stun while the enemy is broken. This gives extra break uptime and lets you squeeze more damage in. Felicia is good for this with her ultimate.
Final Blurb
The best team comps in Madoka Magica Magia Exedra rely on timing breaks, building one good DPS unit, and supporting them with solid skill rotation. Don’t waste resources early. Build smart, break often, and rotate through content with a stable five-unit core.
