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 Pathfinder Cait'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. C.RATE - Up to 100%: every crit multiplies the hit.
  3. C.DMG - How much a crit adds - stack it once C.RATE is near 100%.
  4. ATK% - The skills' damage scales from ATK.
  5. ACC - Optional - only the A1 places [Block Buffs], so other stats come first.

Gear set combinations

  • Savage×4+Cruel×2
    Ignores DEF on every hit, plus ATK - the all-round damage build.

    Gives: C.RATE +10%, SPD +12%, Lethal effect

  2. T2Keen StrikeC.DMG.
  3. T3Single OutFinishes off low-HP targets.
  4. T4Cycle of ViolenceBrings the big cooldown skills back sooner.
  5. T5MethodicalThe A1 hits harder every use.
  6. T6WarmasterBonus damage from the target's MAX HP on most hits.

  2. T2BlastproofLess AoE damage taken.
  3. T3ResurgentCan shake off a debuff after a big hit.
  4. T4Delay DeathTakes less damage from the same enemy over time.
  5. T5Cycle of RevengeTurn meter when allies are crit.
  6. T6Unshakeable+50 RES against crowd control.

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

  • Lens of Intangibility - A flat chunk of DEF ignored on every hit, and a free Perfect Veil each round that raises it - works for any hitter.
  • Irethi Coronet - Damage climbs with each debuff the wearer places, up to a cap - made for champions that apply several debuffs per turn.
  • Immortal Visage - A built-in second life once per round: it keeps a key champion in the fight long enough for its kit to matter.
