01 · SETUP

Starting setup

Availability depends on your unlocks

Recommended character

Otter

Critical chance increases by 9%, strengthening weapon attacks. Movement speed decreases by 8%, so establish a safe attacking position in advance.

  • Peanut(Sturdy)×3
  • Wind Spirit Fruit(Wind Song)×2
  • Starfruit(Precision)×1

Wishing fountain Fountain usage 5 of 5

  • Yakumo Short BladeCapacity 5
Why this choice
Prepare Yakumo Short Blade at the Wishing Fountain. This uses 5/5 capacity, and the item must be unlocked first. Then collect items in the same categories to complete the target combos.

Talents 50 points

  • Willpower10
  • Swiftness20
  • Wrath20
Why this choice
Willpower 10 adds 15 maximum HP and 25 maximum MP and provides 5 Wishing Fountain capacity. Swiftness 20 adds 20% attack speed, 8 evasion, and 1 dash charge. It also increases dash recovery speed and final weapon damage. At level 20, dash invincibility lasts 0.1 seconds longer, with an additional final weapon damage bonus. Wrath 20 adds 20% critical chance and 20% critical damage. Damage dealt to bosses and minibosses also increases by 10%. Also gain 20 armor penetration. Uses 50 points in total.

Recommended miracle

Duelist

  • Attack speed +24%
  • Gain 1 Wind Song artifact (selected from unlocked, eligible candidates)
Why this choice
Add 24% attack speed to chain attacks quickly, and gain 1 Wind Song artifact to help build combos. The granted item is selected from candidates that meet the unlock and eligibility requirements, so a particular core item is not guaranteed.

Stat priorities

  1. Dash attack damage
  2. Attack speed and physical damage
  3. Weapon critical chance and critical damage
  4. Core artifact levels and defensive stats

03 · HOW TO PLAY

Playing this build

1Early preparation

With the Default Sword and Shield, progress using normal attack chains and Cleave after blocking from the front. Block and Cleave both consume MP, so keep enough MP for defense. Use the items prepared at the Wishing Fountain; the final weapon's unique effect becomes available after evolution.

2Upgrades and transition

Default Sword and Shield → Rapier → Flashing Rapier. Intermediate weapon effect: Dash attacks are disabled, and normal attacks count as dash attacks. Attack speed increases by 10%. After the final evolution, the rapier's normal attacks count as dash attacks. Increase dash attack damage and attack speed, and fight at the edge of the extended thrust's reach.

3Combat loop

  1. Land the tip of the thrust from outside the enemy's melee range.
  2. Use normal attack inputs to repeat thrusts that benefit from dash attack bonuses.
  3. Use dashes for movement and evasion, then thrust again after landing.

Boss fights

Stay at the edge of your range rather than pressing against the boss. Do not force a separate dash attack combo.

Without the core items

Without Yakumo Short Blade, secure dash damage and physical damage with Windgrass Scarf and Warrior Seal.

04 · REVIEW NOTES

Cautions and scope of verification

Conditions to watch

  • The separate dash attack is disabled.
  • Do not assume all normal attack damage bonuses and triggers apply simply because the input is a normal attack.

Needs further verification

No specific unresolved issues are listed. This does not mean performance has been verified in actual play.
