Build Notes

Da Pan—endgame dps

Rank #2

This endgame build focuses on maximizing Da Pan's burst damage through Vulnerability stacking and Crush. Amaranthine Tassel and Grizzled Edge work together to provide high Physical DMG multipliers, while the off-set Core boosts Arts Intensity. Ideal for clearing waves of enemies where Da Pan can repeatedly trigger his Combo Skill.

Amaranthine Tassel provides massive ATK and Physical DMG bonuses, especially after consuming Vulnerability stacks to trigger Crush. The Grizzled Edge set amplifies Physical DMG after applying Crush or Breach, and the off-set Core increases Arts Intensity for better skill scaling. This build maximizes Da Pan's burst potential in endgame content.

Uses off-set Core 2 (Swordmancer NAV Beacon) for extra Arts Intensity to boost damage.

Catcher—endgame dps

Best in Slot

This build maximizes Catcher's personal damage through stacking Physical DMG bonuses from both weapon and gear set. It rewards aggressive play by using Battle Skill frequently to maintain stacks. While not top-tier, it makes Catcher a passable offensive defender in endgame content.

Exemplar is chosen for its Suppression skill that stacks Physical DMG when hitting with Battle Skill, synergizing with Catcher's skill rotation.

Æthertech set boosts ATK and Physical DMG per Vulnerability stack, matching Catcher's debuff role.

Swordmancer TAC Gloves off-piece provides additional Physical DMG and good substats.

Amaranthine Tassel is a solid alternative if Exemplar is unavailable, though Catcher cannot fully utilize its Arts intensity trigger.

Sundered Prince works if Catcher is the controlled operator, enhancing Final Strike damage.

The Æthertech set can stack up to 48% Physical DMG Bonus when applying Vulnerability, which Catcher does frequently with his Battle Skill.

Mi Fu—endgame dps

Rank #3

This endgame build maximizes Mi Fu's Crush damage through Amaranthine Tassel and Grizzled Edge. The weapon's buffs trigger reliably from her rotation, and the gear set synergizes with her Vulnerability consumption, resulting in massive burst damage on World Splitter and sustained Physical DPS.

Amaranthine Tassel's Combative skill grants Arts Intensity when applying Physical Susceptibility (via Combo Skill) and Physical DMG when applying Crush, directly amplifying her primary damage sources.

Grizzled Edge set piece bonuses provide Strength and Physical DMG, while the set effect increases Physical DMG based on Vulnerability stacks consumed. The Swordmancer NAV Beacon off-piece adds high Strength and Arts Intensity, outperforming other options.

Amaranthine Tassel is BiS due to its synergy with Mi Fu's Crush and Physical Susceptibility application, granting both Physical DMG and Arts Intensity.
Grizzled Edge set boosts ATK and provides scaling Physical DMG when applying Crush or Breach, especially effective against enemies with Physical Susceptibility.
