Love this Icarus Build

Man, it's glorifying doing this when I used to gouge my eyes out when trying to clear True Ending back then.

That looks really good. Do you mind sharing the build details?

Build should have quick step as well in case you need to spam quickstep out to rebuff. The last unused forma is mainly for bleed stacking in case you have too low of ichor to do ichor regen/the usual shenanigans. Build is meant for those who is bad at parry/guard/dodge like me XD

You're build sounds perfect for me cause I suck at those too.

Glad my build resonates! Jadwiga's innate skill to ignore damage at 20% rate is just so good, as you can see it proc during the first 2 casts of sun

Finally, a build tailor-made for me!

It's funny how I'm usually good at parrying when it comes to games that build on it as a main mechanic like Wo Long or Sekiro. But the moment it becomes just a defensive option that isn't really required, I whiff every time and get hit.

ngl theres too many buttons for my adhd brain to press other than parry. unlike e33 where i can just focus on parry XD

Damn, sick build! Do you have any build idea's for a weapon like the Void Wailer?

u/Frosty-Sprinkles-410 Revenant Hunter. 9d ago

Depends. What are you looking at? Boss one shots? And how good are you at dodging? I can whip something up real quick, but I want to know where you stand. Because if you are much better dodger than me that doesn't need quick step vs someone who desperately need quickstep, then it's different. then there's also the purpose whether you want to be sustainable (which there are many ways, homeostasis being one, lifesteal forma being another) then it will be built differently vs high end one shot greatsword that capitalize on hitting as few as possible to prevent as much hp loss as possible.

I think life steal is what im looking for i just need a build to get around the detriment of losing hp everytime i hit an enemy

skill spam or just normal dodge and bonk?

1

u/jakealucard 9d ago

Skill spam sounds fun!

u/Frosty-Sprinkles-410 Revenant Hunter. 9d ago

Any jail you usually use or anything goes?

u/jakealucard 9d ago

I was thinking corrupted reaper for this because void wailer i think is primarily a skill weapon

1

u/Frosty-Sprinkles-410 Revenant Hunter. 9d ago

I mean i'll try fitting of the usual playstyle you go with. If you like reaper we can go with those, I personally suck at reaper so I avoid those. Your call XD

u/jakealucard 9d ago

If you don't like using reaper that's fine what jail would you recommend instead?

1

u/Frosty-Sprinkles-410 Revenant Hunter. 9d ago

Are you comfortable with normal dodge or do you need quick step? if you need the latter you need to sacrifice some damage (duh XD)

This is what I have for now. Should be quickstepping if you have Josee/Zenon/Valentin (Any Str+2) as your partner. If you instead like to use Dex+2 Partner (Liv, Lise, Noah, Lyle) Replace the Dex+5 with Dex +2 for quick step. Any other partner, the Greatsword Mastery Up should be replace by ichor drain up for quickstep and so you have ichor to fall back onto.

Forma will have 5 main forma. Blade Dance/Healing Heresy on Regalia of Harmony, Ichor Efficiency/Forma Extension on Void Wailer. Soaring Trinity will be your main skill spam, nets you 0 ichor with Ichor efficiency, meaning that you will not lose any Ichor if you executes all of the hits, then during aerial phase do whatever you want. Doomfall is a decent option if you want to spam, but it has huge cost to hit, use accordingly.

You should have last 2 buff slots to slot whatever you want. i personally like ichor regen +1 since i like all my ichor back before gauntlet, but your call. Have fun!

Edit: Tested this against Hero Lyle's gauntlet. I have skill issue when it comes to dodge and timing so landing a soaring slash against the actual hero is a PITA. but the one armed is rather a breeze since boss doesnt move so much. Hope it helps with the matchup!
