Build Use

A bleed Inner Way for Heavenquaker Spear in Bellstrike - Umbra. Sober Sorrow now reaches its two buff thresholds at 4 and 8 combo instead of 5 and 10. Each Sober Sorrow hit on a target with your Bleed can add an extra combo, and the chance climbs from 60% to 100% as Bleed stacks build, so stack Bleed first and the combo count fills almost twice as fast.

Tier 1 makes the combo buff last 15 seconds, and Tier 3 gives Sober Sorrow 10% more damage plus Tenacity and 60% DMG Reduction while it plays. Tier 4 rewards reaching 10 combo with Empowered River Flow: more damage, healing from Sweep All, High Bleed damage and 20 Endurance back. Tier 6 adds Soul-Shaken on every hit and puts Wine Gu on a target hit 3 times in 3 seconds, so it takes 5% more damage from you for 15 seconds.

Get Bleed stacks on the target before you lean on Sober Sorrow, since the extra combo chance scales with your Bleed stacks. At Tier 6, land 3 quick hits on your main target to keep Wine Gu up.
