Vendetta [P]

Ascension 3
Will ignore 7.5% of enemy DEF for each time this Champion attacks the same target enemy in consecutive attacks or Turns. Stacks up to 30%.

The stack will be lost and reset if this Champion targets and attacks a different enemy.

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 Saito'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 [Decrease DEF], so other stats come first.

Gear set combinations

  • Ignores DEF on every hit, plus ATK - the all-round damage build.
    Gives: ATK +15%, Savage effect, Cruel effect
  • C.RATE and DEF ignore in one set, with SPD to act more often.
    Gives: C.RATE +10%, SPD +12%, Lethal effect
  • Heals from its own damage - survives long boss fights.
    Gives: ATK +15%, Lifesteal effect, Cruel effect
  • Three 2-piece sets when your 4-piece pieces are weak.
    Gives: ATK +15%, C.RATE +12%, SPD +12%, Cruel effect

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.

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.
