Build Notes

Alesh — endgame support

Rank #3

This build maximizes Alesh’s SP generation and Cryo support capabilities for endgame content. By equipping Finchaser 3.0 and the Frontiers gear set, he becomes a potent SP battery that boosts team Cryo DMG while maintaining high personal Ultimate uptime. The off‑piece glove stretch helps reach key Intellect thresholds for his Veteran Angler talent.

Finchaser 3.0 is the top pick because it directly enhances his Cryo support capabilities, increasing team damage output against solidified enemies while scaling his own stats through Suppression, Cryo DMG Boost, and Strength Boost essences.

Thermite Cutter offers a team-wide ATK buff when Alesh's skills recover SP or apply Link, making it a strong alternative when party buffs are needed over personal Cryo amplification.

Fortmaker provides lower early-game investment but still boosts Ultimate availability and Arts Intensity, suitable for budget setups until Finchaser is obtained.

Frontiers gear is chosen for its Combo Skill cooldown reduction and team DMG buff triggered by SP recovery, aligning perfectly with Alesh's SP battery playstyle.

The off‑piece Eternal Xiranite Gloves adds Intellect and Ultimate Gain Efficiency, further increasing his Ultimate rotation.

Finchaser 3.0 amplifies Cryo DMG taken by enemies and boosts personal Strength and Cryo DMG, making it perfect for Alesh's support role.
Frontiers set synergizes with his SP recovery: reduces Combo Skill cooldown and grants team DMG buff whenever he recovers SP.
Eternal Xiranite Gloves off‑piece improves Ultimate uptime through increased Ultimate Gain Efficiency.

Alesh — early game support

Best in Slot

This accessible early-game build focuses on strength and survivability while transitioning into Alesh’s support role. Fortmaker and Armored MSGR gear provide a solid foundation of stats and utility, with the Mordvolt Insulation off‑piece rounding out his Intellect for improved Rare Fin chances.

Fortmaker is the recommended early game weapon because it directly contributes to Alesh’s support functions: Inspiring essence raises his ATK and Arts Intensity, Ultimate Gain Boost accelerates his Ultimate, and Intellect Boost enhances his talent scaling.

The Armored MSGR gear set is chosen for its Strength bonus and survivability: at low HP, it provides 30% DMG reduction, helping Alesh stay alive as an off‑field support.

The off‑piece Mordvolt Insulation Vest is valuable for its balanced Strength and Intellect stats, helping Alesh reach early game benchmarks for both damage output and talent effectiveness.

Fortmaker is a solid early weapon, granting Arts Intensity and Ultimate Gain Efficiency to support Alesh's SP generation role.
Armored MSGR set provides Strength and DMG reduction, improving durability while boosting his main scaling stat.
Mordvolt Insulation Vest off‑piece adds both Strength and Intellect, covering his dual attribute needs.

Akekuri — endgame support

Rank #3

This endgame support build capitalizes on Akekuri’s SP generation tools to continuously trigger the Frontiers set’s team DMG buff and the Thermite Cutter’s ATK boost. High Intellect from gear enhances her Combo Skill SP recovery through the Cheer of Victory talent. The off-piece gloves improve Ultimate Gain Efficiency, enabling more frequent Rallying Flares. Overall, she becomes an SP battery that also passively increases the entire party’s damage output.

Thermite Cutter is chosen because its Flow essence grants a team ATK buff whenever Akekuri restores SP, stacking with her support nature. The other essences boost her personal ATK and Will, but the team buff is the key.

OBJ Edge of Lightness is a strong alternative when focusing on Heat or Electric damage, as it further increases those damage types for the team after SP recovery.

Fortmaker offers utility with Ultimate Gain Efficiency and Intellect, making it a decent choice if you need even faster Ultimate rotation but lack the team-wide ATK buff from the top weapons.

The Frontiers set reduces Combo Skill cooldown by 15% and gives a party-wide DMG buff after SP recovery, perfectly aligning with Akekuri's role.
Off-piece Eternal Xiranite Gloves T1 accelerate Ultimate charging, ensuring more frequent SP bursts.
