Recommended Skill Sets
Energy Control Guerrilla Build
Playstyle
Use precise energy control to reach zero at turn end, triggering trait battlefield exit, avoiding enemy counterattacks, achieving safe output.
Why this set works
Use Vein Collapse's fixed low energy cost trait, paired with 0-cost utility skills for precise energy control, triggering 'Vigilance' to disengage and avoid damage after outputting. Mud Armor boost makes Vein Collapse damage considerable, with First Strike securing move priority.

Field Presence Lockdown Build
Playstyle
After self-enhancement, locks enemy pet swaps, utilizing high Physical Defense and enhancement buffs for sustained field output without relying on trait escape.

Late-game core style
Playstyle
Early game: Use low-energy skills to transition. Once Rock Throw's energy cost is reduced, it becomes core damage output. Rely on high-power physical attack to overwhelm opponents.
Why this set works
Rock Throw serves as the core late-game weapon. Early game uses First Strike and utility skills to transition, Mud Armor ensures survival and damage output, and Rock Throw becomes the main damage source as its energy cost decreases with use.
Rock Throw
Why pick this skill
High energy cost but high power, permanently reduces energy cost at turn end, grows stronger in later stages.

Why pick this skill
