Build Use

A general damage Inner Way that works with any weapon. Every hit has a chance to add a Bleed stack that deals damage each second. When the target reaches 5 stacks, the Bleed is consumed and deals an instant burst of Piercing damage, so the more often you hit, the more often it bursts.

Tier 1 doubles that Piercing burst, and Tier 4 raises the chance to apply a stack to 15%. Tier 3 gives a 20% chance of a burst even when the stacks run out before reaching 5, and Tier 6 keeps 1–2 stacks after each burst so the next one comes sooner. Tiers 2 and 5 add Max Physical Attack and Critical DMG Bonus.

Since stacks come from a per-hit chance, fast weapons and multi-hit skills fill the 5 stacks quickest. Tiers 1 and 6 are the big upgrades: a stronger burst and a head start on the next one.
