When building your Gale Marksman/Lord of the Tempest team in Run! Goddess, you have a lot to consider – mainly the valykries you use and the skills but there is more than meets the eye, just along plaement and order has a huge impact. Below you will find the ideal setup to simply copy for faster progress.More combos and extra combos are what this last evolution step in this ship class branch means and this is how you should build it
Important! Please mind that all character classes in Run! Goddess have very individual playstyles and while none of them is better, they approach opponents very differently. If you’re not sure which one will fit you or you’re not that happy with the class you chose, make sure to check out my guide about the main classes in Run! Goddess here to pick the class that will fit your preferences and then use my guides to build them. You also find progressed builds for all classes linked there, absolutely the core of guides for Run! Goddess.
Forget all the ‘this is the best build/class/valkyrie/skill to pick’ guides out there – every character class is equally strong in Run Goddess, but they all work differently how they encounter enemies so building them with the right valkyries, skills etc. is absolutely essential – and this is what this guide is all about
Best Gear Traits for your Gale Marksman/Lord of the Tempest Class Build in Run! Goddess
When shooting enemies, they drop equipment and it’s important that you choose the one with the higher stats – but as soon as you leave the first rarities, you will get gear that has some extra traits on it and they HAVE TO fit your core character class skills.

With the Gale Marksman/Lord of the Tempest class you should always look out for those traits:
Best Valkyries for your Gale Marksman/Lord of the Tempest Team
From the available valkyries here is the most ideal setup (I know it includes some paid options but below you will find some nice replacements):
Ideally pick Ophelia, Alicia, Dawnbringer, Rika and Emilius. If you don’t have them you can see the alterntive teams to use below that you can swap in. PLEASE ALSO MIND THE SHOWN STAR LEVEL! If you have a high-rarity valkyrie it’s nice and all but without the required star shown above, you don’t have her skills needed unlock and you rather want to use an alternative!
NEVER EVER use Quick Deploy! It will only use the highest rarity/level powerrating and not mind any of the synergies with your character class skills and weapon/damage type working well!!!
Alternativ Valkyries Team
As mentioned above… if you don’t have the minimum star levels of the valkyries shown above, you don’t have the skills that make them good but here is a setup that uses lower-rarity valkyries that might work for you:
AllClash
Pro
Best Skills
After testing a lot we can confirm that skill synergies are not relevant at all – use the skills that you have at the highest rarity/level do deal the most damage and adjust them, if needed, for the stage you’re up against and you will be fine. No need to make up a strategy where there is none.
Conclusion
I hope this guide helps you optimizing your build in Run Goddess and progress faster. I know that with all the different valkyries and skill choices, one can feel a little lost sometimes, so please if you have any questions just post a comment below and I will be happy to help.
