This build focuses on increasing Emma's critical hit rate and damage while balancing Strength and Vitality to increase survivability. Use the Shark Cutter to deal high melee damage, then capitalize on openings with Blade Arts and Iaido attacks.

Stat Priority

① Strength Increases Attack and Defense. Unlocks the Entanglement Overdrive Main Skill.
② Vitality Increases HP and Critical Rate. Unlocks Hair Main Skil.
③ Florescence Increases Skill Power and HP. Unlocks Track Shot Main Skill.

Balance your Attribute Points between Strength and Vitality for this Crit Build. Strength should be your main priority to increase Emma's base damage and defense, while also unlocking Entanglement Overdrive and the other sub-skills needed for the build.

Invest in Vitality regularly to offset the reduced HP from the Double-Edged Sword and to gain extra Crit Rate. Since this Spirit Stone halves Emma's maximum HP, having enough Vitality is important for improved survivability.

Only invest in Florescence if you are confident with your current HP. Florescence increases the damage of Emma's skills, including Blade Arts, while also providing some additional HP when increased. You can also invest in it to unlock useful skills such as Roll for escaping dangerous situations.

Best Weapons

Best Swords

Weapon Details
Shark Cutter IconShark Cutter Element: Slash
Melee Attack: 27
Ability: Spiral Critical
Effect: When Emma and Koo attack, increase critical chance by 7%. Effect Length: 5 second(s).
Cirrus Sword IconCirrus Sword Element: Impact
Melee Attack: 27
Ability: Clear Skies
Effect: Increases Emma's damage ×1.02 and Koo's damage ×1.02 for 5 second(s).

The Shark Cutter is the best weapon for this Crit Build due to its synergy with critical hits. Its effects complement the build's focus on dealing consistent high critical damage, making it the ideal choice once you obtain it.

Before getting the Shark Cutter, the Cirrus Sword is a good alternative. It provides solid damage and works well with the build early on, making it a reliable weapon to use until you can switch to the Shark Cutter.

The best ammo for ranged weapons currently are the Fire Bolts and Flame Arrows. Once the status buildup is full, it will burn the targets and deal a good amount of damage. It works great on bosses and elite enemies in the overworld.

If you ran out of Fire Bolts and Flame Arrows, you can rely on regular ammo as they deal significant amount of damage even without the extra effect. Plus, you can equip more of them compared to elemental arrows and bolts.

The Amber Breastplate and God Tree Guard are the best armor choices for this build, as both provide high Defense while giving Emma 6 Spirit Stone slots.

The additional Defense helps improve survivability, which is especially important for this Crit Build due to Double-Edged Sword reducing Emma's HP by half.

This Spirit Stone setup focuses on consistently dealing high Critical Damage and quickly replenishing the Entanglement Gauge for Blade Arts. The build can be somewhat of a glass cannon due to Double-Edged Sword, which increases damage by 30% but reduces Emma's HP to half.

Entangled Parry, Entangled Encounter, and Entangled Riposte helps replenish Emma's Entanglement Gauge quickly, allowing you frequently cast Blade Arts. Critical Damage and Critical Mind improve Emma's critical hit damage and consistency, making critical hits the main source of damage.

If the recommended Spirit Stones are still low level, feel free to use alternatives that provide higher Critical Rate or Attack. Critical Rate should be the main priority, as consistently landing critical hits allows the build to fully take advantage of its Critical Damage effects.

Koo's main role in this build is to support Emma and improve her survivability rather than focus on dealing damage. Prioritize Healing Bouquet and Healing Garden first to provide Emma with stronger healing and better sustain during battles.

After unlocking these skills, prioritize Mod: Battleborn, Mod: Healing Energy, and Mod: Last Stand to further improve Koo's support capabilities and help Emma stay in the fight longer.

For Koo's items, prioritize Recovery Tonic, Bull Censer and Resurrection Censer. Recovery Tonic heals Emma, while the Bull Censer increases Emma's Attack, and the Resurrection Censer can revive Emma once, giving her an extra chance to survive difficult encounters.
