[This effect always works when fighting Bosses.]

Skill texts, cooldowns and book upgrades are the game's own. "Damage" is the skill's multiplier (for example 4×ATK = four times this champion's ATK, before the target's DEF) - see how damage works.

Suggested build

A starting point worked out from Genzin's own skills - not a hand-tested build. Each line says why it was picked; your gear and team decide the rest. See what stats each champion needs.

PvE

Stat priority

  1. SPD - More turns means more hits.
  2. ACC - To land [Decrease DEF] - a resisted debuff does nothing.
  3. C.RATE - Up to 100%: every crit multiplies the hit.
  4. C.DMG - How much a crit adds - stack it once C.RATE is near 100%.
  5. ATK% - The skills' damage scales from ATK.

Gear set combinations

  • Savage×4+Cruel×2
    Ignores DEF on every hit, plus ATK - the all-round damage build.
    Gives: ATK +15%, Savage effect, Cruel effect
  • Lethal×4+Speed×2
    C.RATE and DEF ignore in one set, with SPD to act more often.
    Gives: C.RATE +10%, SPD +12%, Lethal effect
  • Lifesteal×4+Cruel×2
    Heals from its own damage - survives long boss fights.
    Gives: ATK +15%, Lifesteal effect, Cruel effect
  • Cruel×2+Critical Rate×2+Speed×2
    Three 2-piece sets when your 4-piece pieces are weak.
    Gives: ATK +15%, C.RATE +12%, SPD +12%, Cruel effect
  • Savage×4+Perception×2
    Keeps the damage and adds ACC for the kit's debuffs.
    Gives: ACC +40, SPD +5%, Savage effect

Masteries

The key pick in each tier of the two trees - hover or tap a mastery for the game's own text. How masteries work

Offense

  1. T1Deadly PrecisionC.RATE for a damage dealer.
  2. T2Keen StrikeC.DMG.

  2. T2Charged FocusMore ACC when no skill is on cooldown.
  3. T3Arcane CelerityTurn meter when its debuffs expire.
  4. T4Lore of SteelStronger set bonuses (Speed, Accuracy...).
  5. T5Master HexerIts debuffs can last a turn longer.
  6. T6Eagle-Eye+50 ACC.

Blessings

  • Phantom Touch - Extra damage on every attack suits anyone whose job is to hit, and it needs no particular debuff or buff to work.
  • Cruelty - Many hits per turn means the target's DEF melts away; best on multi-hit attackers and in long boss fights.
  • Lightning Cage - Rewards teams that fight buffed enemies and gives any attacker a steady source of extra damage.

How blessings work

Relics

  • Irethi Coronet - Damage climbs with each debuff the wearer places, up to a cap - made for champions that apply several debuffs per turn.
  • Preserved Aberration - Ignores DEF for each [Poison] the wearer has on the target - a natural fit for poisoners.
  • Arachnelixir - Adds ATK-based bonus damage to the wearer's [Poison] debuffs, so poison kits get a lot more out of each tick.
