Blade

[gusty stone]

i think this is better right hahas

[dusk mural]

ye

[pale narwhal]

It is

[eternal kite]

Lightening Retributition is the perk to look out for, for Blade when playing right?

[outer kestrel]

depends if you are doing thunderstrike or chain

[eternal kite]

What's thunderstrike?

Oh wait, I know that one! Are they about the same or is one preferred over the other?

[languid spade]

Is this a bug, or did i just notice the delay in abilities after CD is over

[eternal kite]

That happens to me a lot, I can only assume its server issues.

[languid spade]

Its annoying cause i jsut started noticing it and i cant spam abilities cause of it

[cursive shard]

does anyone have a good hybrid build for blade? I want to use her melee and skills but i be struggling hard in CA 35

not a fan of music find it very boring to play like that

[versed ferry]

thunder and critical, not mutch else you can do

[languid spade]

@dusk mural Better?

[outer kestrel]

pretty good but you need to raise your core levels

get more base skill power

[languid spade]

yee

working on dat fam

2 days played gimme slack

[languid spade]

GG

wish there was less stutters so i dont die to random rockets

Now what tho

[untold lantern]

hi what perks should i look for

[molten plaza]

faster

[languid spade]

I will push speed once i claim my last 2 mods

I cant beat your time with my mods

[spark marsh]

any guild to build blade thunder ?

[green spoke]

going past CA20 is there a build I should try to focus on? do I keep going reload music?

[spark marsh]

just go with evasion music and try to get "echo shock" asap
run should go smoothly after that

also use legendary module that guarantee first perk music

[green spoke]

which module buffs should I be looking for?

[spark marsh]

Do you mean this one ?

[green spoke]

yeah, what other buffs like that should I try finding? like perk refresh +1

[languid spade]

Music blessing

You can build around this

This is BIS

Like these is what u really really want

[dusk mural]

Yeah but those are immortals

So it is basically omega gamba

[languid spade]

Dont think anyne can do a 50 without atleast 1 immo

i could be wrong

[dusk mural]

I mean technically you could do it without any mods

But that would take actual days

Lmao

[languid spade]

Is it realistically possible to get 300 sp/ 300 crit % multi with just 4's?

no immos

That would be have to be a massive gamble no

[dusk mural]

I think it‘s doable if you reroll a bunch of IV‘s for perfect stats

It is definitely possible to get very good stats

Just a lot of work

[languid spade]

more work than farming CA into CoD for immos

better chancecs of that tbh

[dusk mural]

Not that bad honestly

You just need skill crit rate, skill crit damage and skill damage

Get all 3 of those combined and you have yourself a dream setup

I‘ve gotten mod drops with all 3 of those already on too so you can get lucky with drops

[languid spade]

Wish i was lucky

Im fishing for the last 2 immortals that i posted

so i can speedrun a 50

and try to beat them 😄

I think thats about whats left for me in the game

[dusk mural]

I got the skill crit rate immo and music blessing

That got me through 50

[languid spade]

u did a 50 after ur boost?

[dusk mural]

Yes

Had to solo it too lmao

[languid spade]

Grats

I dont think the immo music is that strong tbh

[dusk mural]

It‘s not

But great stats

And I have no other immortal

So it‘s just stat stick+

[languid spade]

Yeh

[dusk mural]

And

It helps me to get echo

So

[languid spade]

Is this bugged btw

It spams my reload

at full ammo

[dusk mural]

Ig it just consumes your ammo really quick

No idea if it is bugged

I just know it‘s very good for reload builds and skill builds in general

[gusty stone]

after CA30 is the game just farming for i4's and immortals?

what do u get after ca40 since theres no standard mode 11

[rocky forge]

Is there an objective answer to "weapon vs skill" builds for blade? When I first started I was trying for skill builds and then saw someone say "you should build for weapon" and I've been climbing CA levels with a weapon setup but now all I'm seeing is people discuss skill builds.

Edit:
For reference I suppose, I've currently been mostly carrying myself and a buddy through the floors, but the final bosses have started getting to the point where if I'm not super careful, I die. I know part of this is just mod setup, I was just wondering which style is generally "better" or if it's legitimately just a playstyle preference.

[green spoke]

Tyty, and is the gameplay just using evasion Shockwave or is the damage in the weapon shots from echo shock?

[mighty chasm]

what is the best weapon for blade?

[pale narwhal]

heartfelt

[lusty stump]

best arbiter for blade? is it music?

[languid spade]

Yep

[eternal kite]

What 'Potential' should I be choosing for Blade? I've really liked the one that makes her C trigger from the gun

[unborn ingot]

idk if it's the best but i am very fond of the "fractal edge" one

[rocky zodiac]

that one feels very weak to me but maybe I dont have the build for it

[unborn ingot]

it favors a high skill build; also the one that halves weapon power but doubles skill power can go crazy in bosses - i love maxing out security primary with that potential

[thorny urchin]

any clue what type of dmg this does>?

[mighty chasm]

good or meh?

[languid spade]

Good if you have the 80% crit trait

Ca 45+ good

and 150% sp trait

[void pike]

i dont really follow builds so idk what the standard is for a good build, but id assume this is at least good?

[thorny urchin]

is that trait imortal?

[void pike]

yes

[mighty chasm]

i have it

[languid spade]

boom

[mighty chasm]

damn what are ur perk?

[rocky zodiac]

Wouldnt the spinning blades or even the 4 projectile primary potential be better?

[unborn ingot]

spinning blades is the one that i find weak in my own experience - but yes the 4 projectile one is easily the better choice imo

unfortunately with the 2 potential limit in CA i just don’t get lucky enough half the time so i have to make due

[dusk mural]

honestly am upset that I am forced to use a wep power mod to get the power of destruction, but I feel like it's worth it

these were my stats pre changes

lost some skill crit damage but gained so much skill damage

gonna roll this eventually since I have 6 first tune cores anyways

[languid spade]

Doubt its worth

u traded 120% crit for 150% sp

and i still think id value crit over sp on echo shard music

But who knows, go clear a 50 and tell me how fast u do it

without skips

maybe it slams

[dusk mural]

no

I intend to roll the immortal

I am aiming to get skill crit damage

eventually at least

[languid spade]

These stats are really really good

If you had that... u should keep it

[dusk mural]

I'm not playing blade atm anyways

I am playing gloria for prof

eventually when I get more coin again, Imma start rolling

[languid spade]

gloria is more op anyway.

[dusk mural]

game is game

[dusk mural]

btw I only lost like... 40% crit

I went from 380% to 339%

[languid spade]

Im fried

I saw this

and was like 263..?

[dusk mural]

xD

[long stag]

how do we build the meta blade for music

[dusk mural]

skill damage, skill crit rate and skill crit damage

you wanna get at least above 60% skill crit rate

ideally

don't sacrifice too much skill damage or skill crit damage because you'll end up dealing no damage then

[long stag]

could you show me your module layout please? is there an "optimal" layout

[dusk mural]

"optimal" is uh... a topic for sure

[long stag]

lol

[dusk mural]

wrong image lmao

[long stag]

when do u start unlocking cores?

im only upto CA 5 currently

[dusk mural]

you unlock Viral Frenzy after CA10

there you can get cores

also!

[long stag]

ahh

[dusk mural]

the only reason I run that yellow mod

(which is weapon power)

is because of the trait

you shouldn't run weapon power though ideally

[long stag]

ive seen ONE skill power sub attribute so far

[dusk mural]

that is painful

[long stag]

im getting a lot of weapon ones

but ty ill slowly start trying to build towards this gives me an idea at least

is this just the blade spam or dash spam youre running?

[dusk mural]

always max out on Fission (blue/teal) mods

9/9 is necessary

then usually either max out purple or red.

I recommend red since reds can have skill crit rate

So ideal setup would be like 3 legendaries of blue, red and purple and then a epic blue and red

Then a common purple to fill in the final slot

[long stag]

alright ty, havent had any luck with legend blues

all red purple orange

[dusk mural]

unlucky

[long stag]

lol ye just need to grind more

have just been trying to push

[dusk mural]

early CA's are pretty easy to get through

Just remember to keep upgrading your setup as you go

[long stag]

would be nice if there was just an auto equip function

also no point in spending any resource on intensity I stuff right

[dusk mural]

you gotta redo that tetris so many times....

maybe someday

[dusk mural]

Not really

Atleast I wouldn’t

You can get through early CA‘s without consuming resources

[long stag]

thanks for your help ill make some adjustments

[dusk mural]

good luck on your climb

[long stag]

im going to farm with wealth build before jumping over

[languid spade]

your stats are better than mine, beat my time.

[low knoll]

i thought that music build was using the evasion as primary damage but i read you were using reload? how does it work?

[icy venture]

this good?

[spark marsh]

might be useful for blade physical but for thunder c or minor relate build it not that useful

it proc your shoot skill

[icy venture]

ok and this :/

[spark marsh]

that one idk

[icy venture]

i have no luck

[outer kestrel]

if only you could start with fog or music on minor in ca

[cerulean fractal]

I'm pretty sure this phantom is skill damage, like the phantoms from the potential.

though it sounds hard to contol, like you wouldn't be able to get too much out of it on bosses. Might be good clear though when doing CA

[thorny urchin]

did anyone test this?

[thorny urchin]

what type of dmg does it do

[thorny urchin]

i just fited that mod in my build with skill dmg ult does allot

nothing special tho

still experimenting

i think it does primery dmg

[thorny urchin]

take this mod with it each phantom was doing 500mill with bad build

[timber timber]

Did Kin made that blade guide?

[thorny urchin]

i just hit 3000mill

with a clone

[thorny urchin]

where can i find it?

[cerulean fractal]

someone posted a half finished guide a while back

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1mWkUq30FKmT8AFwgGxTAeOgDvpLqRcX9xTMWOz-02PI/edit?tab=t.0#heading=h.qdv6eqabemn1

[thorny urchin]

there is nothing about that build tho

[timber timber]

It covers game basics wich is nice for new players but yeah

[icy venture]

It's then good op Modul?

Anyone can me show which module good for Blade

I have so much but idk what is good

[thorny urchin]

its definetly strong

i hit 2987mill with it

[icy venture]

Ok i test it 🙂

[thorny urchin]

and not hard to build

just use fatal frag

[icy venture]

What for stats i need

[thorny urchin]

and i use arbiter of security

[icy venture]

Minor skill dmg only

Security with e Primary?

[thorny urchin]

im using skill crit skill dmg skill crit dmg mainly

cause skill dmg works both on e and c

and if im seeing corectly it double dips the dmg

my current stats will swap 2 moddules when i get shape i want

[cerulean fractal]

can you clear hard chains with this build in your current state?

also, what traits?

[thorny urchin]

tbh all you need is energy the one that doesnt consume c

then you can build what ever you like tbh

then i would go for crit tbh for the duo perc

or energy duo

[cerulean fractal]

oh, I thought you were going securty E

[thorny urchin]

yess

security e

important

[icy venture]

this ok?

which weapon 1 2 or 3

[thorny urchin]

2

the one with 2 c charges

[timber timber]

@molten plaza @agile cobalt i wonder...for ULT blade.... i leave that ult on?? or re-roll for skill crit mutiplier

[molten plaza]

skill crit

[thorny urchin]

w

[timber timber]

w

[thorny urchin]

[nova geyser]

damn got this from my tycho treasure

[thorny urchin]

[nova geyser]

[wise moth]

is arbiter of fortune good on blade ?

and whats like the best build for a new person i am only at difficulty 5 of the first map and i wanna know whats like the best build you can get because i am struggeling with the last boss a bit

[spark marsh]

usable but you need her immortal mod to make a decent damage else you lose like 50% of her damage

[wise moth]

what mod ?

[spark marsh]

immortal trait that increase her weapon power by 100%

[wise moth]

is that the thing that with kills your weapons get better ? you can get up to 200 stacks thing or ?

and does anyone have like a pic what the best ingame build would look like ?

[spark marsh]

You get that stat from the very start. No need for stacking.

best build for her right now is music evasion build

so not a weapon build

[wise moth]

what is music evasion build ?

do you have a picture ?

[spark marsh]

game is close right now so I can only explain it.

You start with Music build that has evasion skill

evasion skill deal very large AoE damage

In the run, you need to find perk called "Echo shock" and you bascially kill everything

that the build

[wise moth]

ahhhhhh

[spark marsh]

for trait with immortal module
you want those as Best in slot but as long as you have Music first perk from legendary module you are fine

[wise moth]

i build the evasion thing mostly allready

so in the beginning what arbiter is the best to pick from there

because normaly i got with fortune and lvl up the shoot perc

[spark marsh]

which build we are talk about now

weapon or music ?

for weapon you go fortune

[wise moth]

the over all

ahhh okay

so i am not building bad

[spark marsh]

tbf, there is no overall in this game

[wise moth]

i legit just started the game i have 3 hrs

[spark marsh]

build is predefine before the run

[wise moth]

ah okay

i got a picture i just saw in here https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1400361390451064893/1407433732100591636/image.png?ex=68aff98e&is=68aea80e&hm=72675db574dde72a6e843e2fa2a1480fa3cb1b48ae25ac0fbd80fc1de65f0994&

is this good ?

wait i cant send pics

[spark marsh]

if you put this on blade weapon build you gonna do a very bad damage

[wise moth]

ah okay

[spark marsh]

I can see a picture

[wise moth]

you can ?

i cant

[spark marsh]

it good that you have echo shock from a get go

[wise moth]

nah that aint mine

i just saw it in this chat

i have only build fortune so far

[spark marsh]

I see

also

her weapon of choice is matter

weapon fortune build use her first gun

music use her 2nd gun

heartfelt

[wise moth]

okay

i got her second gun

[spark marsh]

2nd gun use weapon skill to leap very far and clear mob faster

[wise moth]

okay

[wise moth]

is this good for weapon build or should i change some stuff ?

[spark marsh]

axe is for skill, weapon use weapon damage

not sure how it work but you mix between music which is skill
with wealth shoot which is weapon

[wise moth]

whats good for weapon damage ?

[spark marsh]

you only use weapon skill and focus on that only

[wise moth]

?!

[spark marsh]

this is how I build music blade and how I run her

As you can see. I only focus on 1 skill to upgrade and one type of damage

similarly for weapon build that I build for heynck

for heynck you better get every perk you found in run but I skip because I can clear mob very fast

[tawny dew]

so for blade is it only good to build her skill dmg?

[spark marsh]

overall skill dmg are better in this patch

[wise moth]

Why so little perks tho ?

[spark marsh]

abiter's power x3 perk damage but each other type of other abiter decrease multiplier by 0.5

[wise moth]

AHHHH Okayyyyy

[wise moth]

is there a way to get that 100% every run ?

[spark marsh]

in standard mode I get around 90% of all run

it either use this or skill amp which also good as well

but for CA you better pick every perk or you want to retry multiple time

[wise moth]

idek what ca is tbh lol

[spark marsh]

2nd game mode that has 50 floor

[wise moth]

ah okay

[tawny dew]

question guys anyone know how to get the virus hunter skin from blade the one with fox mask?

[molten plaza]

not available yet

[violet yacht]

what for weapon u use ?

[tawny dew]

what stat priority should i look on the skill build skill damage primary skill ultimate skill?

[dusk mural]

Skill damage, skill crit rate and skill crit damage

[wise moth]

depends if you go weapon damage or ability damage

[dusk mural]

@earnest patio

[obsidian scarab]

What do you Guys and Girls say is that for beginner fine or should i focus on other stats for Blade, I am sadly not sure about it and i haven't done CA 30 Actualy and that are right now my traits to

Hope someone can Help me to?

[spark marsh]

I can’t really say much because I only start do my build after CA30 but before that you only need to focus base power and skill power or weapon power.

Try to use highest intensity level module that available to you

[obsidian scarab]

So no specific stats only Skillpower and Normal Power? But Blade makes with all skills dmg or not? So why no Primary or Minor Skillpower, it had maked Sense for me before is it much more Bad to go with that ones?

[spark marsh]

you are correct about that but pre CA30 you should focus on get to end game ASAP with minimum time and resouce.

for primary and minor skill it depend what build or use her for. but most people play her with music echo shock with evasion so she only scale with power, skill power, skill dmg and skill crit.

[spark marsh]

@obsidian scarab you can check how I build her endgame build

[obsidian scarab]

Thankyou

[misty jackal]

what weapon you recommend on blade?

[spark marsh]

Weapon dmg use first weapon
Skill dmg use 2nd weapon.

[misty jackal]

and the 3rd?

[spark marsh]

no one use

[little dirge]

any builds that aren't reliant on echo shock especially for CA30+?

[spark marsh]

blade minor thunder and weapon dmg blade

[short pumice]

Whats the good builds this season

[golden crag]

I'm thinking about Music reload build would be good against Nova? Been having trouble getting close to it

[rustic meteor]

Does Blade's primary skill charge time cap at 2.5s?

[frigid eagle]

there are 2 ways to play Blade either be invincible all the time or 1 shot everything.

[frigid eagle]

not even weapon dmg is busted with her 2nd weapon too.

[spark marsh]

check date it entirely different patch

[frigid eagle]

sorry i meant a 2 week patch?

[outer kestrel]

the energy immortal drops from jory

[autumn stone]

Blade stars build is pretty crazy too

[covert wagon]

Anyone have a potential chip recommendation for blade

[lofty cipher]

Gamertag is Dark Side on Xbox. If you have questions feel free to ask!

[sage shale]

@lofty cipher wow that’s some crazy damage how do u got her so op?

[lofty cipher]

Power/Skill Power cores, Thunder centered build with Charm/Thunder duo. Alot of skill power/skill damage traits and rolls and Thunder rolls.

And more importantly final damage trait, pretty big multiplier which is probably why there's only but few sources of getting that

[sage shale]

@lofty cipher that build is crazy bro feels like warframe u can’t see what’s going on. lol

[lofty cipher]

Probably hard disorder Devourer Malcolm Apostle

[lofty cipher]

It's all rng. It's gonna take time to get the things u need from those but it's the best place to farm loot at in general

Hard disorder can drop reds for that

That's unfortunately how rng is u could either farm more tickets from end difficulty or floors u have unlocked or see if anyone else is running disorders for u to be willing to inv u too as well

It's a pretty grind heavy game if ur looking to get the things u want

Well u have to be floor 40 in order to run hard mode and up. Either farm prior floors or end difficulty or try to run these floors co op if any of those things would bring u up quicker

[dense sphinx]

whats a good arbiter for blade?

i am currently running thunder for some cc but wondering if there is a better one

[lofty cipher]

New Updated Blade Build

[lofty cipher]

Thunder Desire

[brazen salmon]

Anyone find Blades Oblivion Pact perk?

[viral herald]

This is a good build, a good build too is supernova with blade perks clear everything, if i find these perks i will try this build too @lofty cipher

[fickle kettle]

Traits pls

[fickle kettle]

What potential for blade

[viral herald]

@brazen salmon i found it this season lol

[faint basin]

Hello, I'm new to the game! I'm having a lot of trouble creating a build and doing high DPS. Is it possible to see your detailed builds?
