2. 💎 Engraving and Ability Stone Recommendations: How to Use Swiftness
- ✅ Engravings: Grudge, Cursed Doll, Barricade, Adrenaline, Swiftness (Can use Spirit Absorption, Vital Point Hit, Ambush Master, or Precise Dagger instead of Swiftness)
- ✅ Ability Stone: Adrenaline and Grudge combination is the safest.
- ✅ Swiftness Usage Conditions: Can be used as the main engraving in Transcendence attack speed increase buff, Silim Banban build.
- ✅ Swiftness Efficiency: Based on Swiftness 1150, Swiftness engraving is 16.2% efficient when attack/movement speed is full in the Watered Thorns base. It increases up to 19.2% when using attack/movement speed bracelets or support movement speed buffs.
- ✅ Swiftness vs Precise Dagger: Swiftness engraving is more efficient than Precise Dagger (14%) when you have it.
- ⚠️ Swiftness Usage Restrictions: If movement speed is less than 33.75%, use Precise Dagger, Vital Point Hit, Ambush Master, or Spirit Absorption instead of Swiftness.

3. ✨ Ark Passive Settings and Critical Hit Stat Calculation Method
- ✅ Ark Passive: Moon base (2-tier instant special point when leaping)
- ✅ Since the orb gauge supply is sufficient, you can use Hanmyeol's Blood, which has a high number of damage.
- ✅ Appropriate Critical Hit Stat Calculation: Use the Munghan Thorn calculator on the OR app homepage.
- ✅ Enter Munghan Thorn level 2, class engraving critical hit 15%, and then customize rings, etc. to calculate critical hit stats.
- ✅ Maximum Critical Hit Stat: 1344 (efficiency decreases above this).
- ✅ Moon Alternative: Can use 2 hits, Sound Wave (personally recommend Input Hit).
03:55 - 04:41
4. 🛠️ Skill Tree and Gem Placement Guide
- ✅ Skill Tree: Do not use Thrust Wingsphere, only use Meteor Crash and Spinning Play.
- ✅ Can use Conviction and Judgment on Meteor and Spinning (personal preference).
- ✅ Gem Placement: 5 Destruction, 6 Cooldown builds are optimal (smooth orb gauge supply through Meteor Crash Cooldown).
04:42 - 05:20
5. ⚙️ Ark Grid Settings and Priorities
- ✅ Ark Grid Settings: Instant settings (333 build).
- ✅ Priority: Sea > Star > Moon in order of full armor.
- ✅ There are no essential cores, and you can use them as they appear.
- ✅ When acquiring relic core selection ticket and store legendary core, activate 17 points, 14% Ark Grid with Sea relic core + legendary Moon core.
05:21 - 06:45
6. 🔄 Perfect Analysis of Core Damage Cycle
- ✅ The damage cycle is the same before and after Ark Grid.
- ✅ Damage Cycle: Start cycle 1 after 6 stacks of Joad (immediately 5, 6 stacks after 1-4 stacks).
- ✅ Use the Aden supply cycle when skills are on cooldown after cycles 2 and 3.
- ✅ Maintain the orb gauge above 50% with the Aden supply cycle after using all damage skills.
- ✅ Start: Adrenaline stack + Spinning throw.
- ✅ Operation: Turn on Guardian Fear and use 2 skills, then use Revenge.
- ✅ When on Cooldown: Charge the orb gauge with Q, W, A, etc.
- ✅ Skill cooldowns are generous based on Swiftness 1100, making it easy to manage the orb gauge.
06:46 - 09:07
7. ⏱️ Solving Cooldown Bottlenecks and Practical Tips
- ✅ Instant Dread Roar inevitably has cooldown bottlenecks.
- ✅ Solution: Utilize the fact that Frenzy's cooldown is shorter than Quake's, use Quake-Frenzy in the first cycle, and then Frenzy-Quake in order.
- ✅ Quake is a holding skill, so the damage reduction is not significant even if used instantly.
- ✅ Practical Tip: If Quake is likely to miss, it is important to immediately release it and hit it with a head attack.
09:08 - 10:14
8. ⚡ Aden Supply Variable Response Strategy
- ✅ Prepare for cases where Aden supply is insufficient, such as missing normal skills or damage cuts.
- ✅ Utilize 2 Manifestation skills: Use Meteor Crash and Wild Upper instead of main skills after cutting Guardian Fear.
- ✅ Skill acceleration effect when using normal skills after Guardian Fear.
- ✅ If the orb gauge is below 50%, use the scarecrow skill and then use the F skill.
- ✅ Flexibly combine turning on Guardian Fear and supplying the orb gauge with using main skills.
10:15 - 11:16
9. ☄️ Reasons for Adopting Meteor Crash & Spinning
- ✅ Meteor Crash: High stagger ability.
- ✅ Complements the stagger weakness of the Thrust build.
- ✅ Emperor's Aura Supply: Easy to manage the orb gauge when using Spinning with 5 slots for Meteor and 3 slots for Wild Upper.
- ✅ Maintain synergy with Spinning Flame.
- ✅ Both Meteor and Spinning increase the poisoning/bleeding rate with the Dadite effect.
11:17 - 12:35
10. 🤔 Instant vs Charging: Personal Opinion and Conclusion
- ✅ Personally, I think the charging build is better in practice.
- ✅ Based on the Echidna raid, 6-7 main skills must hit the head.
- ✅ Considering the high damage proportion of Guardian Fear, the sustained damage mechanism may not be as good as Super Charge.
- ✅ Conclusion: Instant/Charging build DPS is similar, so you can choose according to your preference. If you are pursuing high points, the charging build may be more advantageous.
