PHYSICAL DPS Build

Weapons

Redhorn Stonethresher

CRIT DMG

Boosts DEF and converts it to Normal/Charged ATK damage. Excellent if you stack DEF for survivability while keeping a huge CRIT DMG stat.

Skyward Pride

Energy Recharge

Adds a vacuum blade after Burst that deals Physical DMG, plus gives Energy Recharge for burst uptime and a small ATK Speed boost.

Serpent Spine

CRIT Rate

Ramps up damage over time; on-field time benefits the stacking effect. Requires a shield to avoid losing stacks from incoming hits.

The Unforged

ATK%

Grants a high ATK% and extra ATK when shielded, synergizing well with shield supports that enable uninterrupted physical combos.

Song of Broken Pines

Physical DMG Bonus

Provides Physical DMG Bonus as a secondary stat and lets Normal Attacks trigger a party-wide ATK and ATK Speed buff, ideal for on-field teams.

Wolf's Gravestone

ATK%

Offers a massive ATK% boost and a team-wide ATK buff when hitting low-HP enemies, making it a straightforward damage booster.

Luxurious Sea-Lord

ATK%

Adds a Burst DMG increase and a physical AoE blast after Burst, pairing well with a physical burst-heavy rotation.

Snow-Tombed Starsilver

Physical DMG Bonus

Gives a Physical DMG Bonus substat and periodically drops an icicle that deals additional Physical DMG on Normal Attacks.

Prototype Archaic

ATK%

Provides an ATK% stat and a chance to launch an AoE shockwave, serving as a reliable F2P option for physical damage.

Artifacts

Pale Flame

Bloodstained Chivalry

2-piece gives 25% Physical DMG Bonus; 4-piece further boosts ATK and Physical DMG on Elemental Skill hits, perfect for a skill-triggering rotation.

CRIT RateCRIT DMG

PHYSICAL DPS
On-field physical DPS. At [C2], use 1:3 CRIT Rate:CRIT DMG.
Weapons: Serpent Spine [R5] > Skyward Pride. The Unforged better when shielded. Prototype Archaic [R5] > Snow-Tombed Starsilver [R5].

PYRO DPS
Requires [C6] Bennett. Serpent Spine [R5] with good stacks beats Redhorn Stonethresher [R1]. Lithic Blade assumes 2 stacks; Beacon of the Reed Sea assumes 1 stack. Lavawalker (4) is best set due to high Pyro aura uptime.

SUPPORT
Shielder. Tenacity of the Millelith (4) with level 3 shield uptime gives 30% Shield Strength and 20% ATK. Needs Sacrificial Greatsword and [C2]. Without either, prefer DPS build. Not recommended for Pyro applications – pulses only at shield level 3, inefficient vs Cryo shields.
