  1. Inner Track SlashSkill — Dash slash, then press again within 2s — the second stage applies all 5 Bleed stacks.
  2. Swap to Heavenquaker SpearWeapon Swap — Swap manually — it’s faster than the Dual-Weapon Skill here.
  3. Sober SorrowSkill — Build the combo to about 10 hits, then parry to cancel the rest of the animation.
  4. Spear Charged HeavyCharged (hold) — First charge stage only. Applies Soul Shaken — stack it to 5, then cancel.
  5. Dragon's BreathMystic Skill — Apply Burn, then parry once it hits.
  6. Drunken PoetMystic Skill — Optional: spam it up to 10 Ignition stacks if you have the Vitality.

Gear

Offensive · Weapons & Accessories
Hawkwing

2pc: +0.1% Affinity Rate.

4pc: When any of your damage triggers Affinity, gain Hawkwing: +2% Physical Attack for 5s, stacking up to 5 times.

Defensive · Armor
Eaglerise

2pc: Physical Defense +1.

4pc: Dealing damage over time or healing grants 1 stack of Eaglerise: Reduces damage taken by 1.2% for 10 seconds, stacking up to 5 times. At max stacks, receives an Eagle Guard effect that reduces the next incoming damage within 10 seconds by 90% (halved when the damage comes from a boss). This effect can only trigger once every 30 seconds.

Hawkwing’s Affinity hits proc extra combo hits for Sober Sorrow; Eaglerise stacks easily because Bleed counts as damage over time.

Tips

  • Reset the Setup when Soul Shaken or River Flow is about to run out — don’t keep looping without them.
  • Parry-cancelling Sober Sorrow and Crosswind Blade saves a lot of time.
  • Skip Sweep All on bosses; it’s slow.
Playing solo / open world?
  • Swap Ghost Bind for Golden Body.
  • Insightful Strike instead of Envigorated Warrior gives you a chance to cut incoming damage by 40%.
