Build Notes

Alesh—endgame support

Rank #4

This is Alesh's late-game support configuration. Thermite Cutter is the anchor weapon because SP recovery on Alesh turns into an attack boost for the whole team, effectively doubling down on his job as an SP battery. The Frontiers set does the same thing from the armor side: whenever he restores SP, the squad picks up a damage buff, and the set also shaves time off his Combo Skill so he can cycle Auger Angling more often. Individual pieces are picked for Intellect and Ultimate Gain Efficiency — Redeemer Armor, two Frontiers Extra O2 Tube T1 kits, and Frontiers Fiber Gloves T1 — pushing him toward the Intellect range his Veteran Angler talent needs while making his Ultimate come up more frequently. Use OBJ Edge of Lightness if the team leans Heat or Electric, Fortmaker as a neutral stat substitute, and treat his signature Finchaser 3.0 as situational since it competes with Cryo damage dealers for Infliction stacks.

The weapon choice follows his support identity: Thermite Cutter converts SP recovery into an attack buff for the entire squad, which stacks on top of the SP he already feeds teammates.

Frontiers is chosen because its two-piece behavior triggers off SP recovery — the exact action Alesh performs constantly — and its cooldown reduction lets him fire Auger Angling more frequently.

Redeemer Armor and the Frontiers pieces all push Intellect and Ultimate Gain Efficiency, keeping him closer to the Intellect threshold his talent wants while speeding up One Monster Catch!.

Alternatives: OBJ Edge of Lightness when he is slotted into a Heat or Electric-heavy lineup that benefits from its team-wide buffs, Fortmaker when you want a generic Intellect and Ultimate Gain stat stick, and Finchaser 3.0 only with caution — his Battle Skill removes the Cryo Infliction stacks that most Cryo damage dealers rely on.

Thermite Cutter is the pick here because its SP-recovery payoff turns into a team-wide ATK increase, which matches exactly what Alesh is doing anyway.
Frontiers rewards him for recovering SP by handing the whole team a damage buff, and it shortens his Combo Skill cooldown so the SP loop runs more often.
Redeemer Armor is used to lift his Intellect and Ultimate Gain Efficiency, with the two O2 Tube kits covering secondary attributes and the Fiber Gloves adding more Ultimate Gain.
Alesh needs roughly 600 Intellect for his Veteran Angler talent to max out, so chase Intellect on pieces wherever the option exists.
