4. ⚔️ Playstyle and Build Philosophy
· Basic Operation: Launch Special rockets → Use Cast → Spam attacks until Blitz disappears → Repeat.
· Damage Amplification: Gust, Chain Lightning, and Cast damage are greatly amplified by the 'Air Quality' Boon.
· Launcher Frame Utilization: This build assumes rockets are automatically fired via the 'Launcher Frame' Hammer. Players focus on using Cast and auto-attacking to quickly melt guardians.
· Ares' Plasma: Ares' Plasma is an additional benefit but not essential, especially if you get 'Rapid Frame'.
· Chronos Strategy: Even without 'Rapid Frame', you can maintain a fast attack sequence during Chronos's phases 2 and 3 through boosts.
· Build Design Intent: Since the base damage of attacks is high and Night Spawns are not directly enhanced by Attack/Special, 'percentage' damage increase Boons are more effective than 'per hit' Boons like Poseidon or Hestia.
· Balance: While this build is very powerful, balancing survivability and damage is crucial.
