Recommended Skill Sets

Starfall Speed Attack Build

Playstyle

Speed Attack Suppression: Quickly stacks Meteor Marks for damage amplification, using Pursuit's scaling and Sneak Attack's reactive burst to finish opponents.

Why this set works

A fast-attack pressure build centered around the Starfall Mark system. Uses Startrack Fission at 0 energy cost for quick mark startup, Spatial Oppression to supplement marks and damage, Sneak Attack for counter burst, and Press the Attack as core growth damage. This build has reasonable energy distribution (0/40/70/85), balancing startup, sustainability, and burst.

Orbital Fission

Why pick this skill

Core Mark stacking skill. 0 Energy to directly inflict 2 stacks of Starfall Mark on the enemy. Low initiation cost, creating base conditions for subsequent Mark-synergy skills.

Pursuit of Victory

Why pick this skill

High-growth damage skill. Starts at 1 hit, permanently gains +1 hit per use. Combined with Mark damage boost, forms sustained pressure. Low cost (40) ensures endurance.

Sneak Attack

Why pick this skill

Counter burst skill, power becomes 3x in counter status, combined with mark damage boost can deal high burst, compensating for insufficient regular output power

Spatial Pressure

Why pick this skill

Combines damage output and mark stacking, 70 energy cost deals physical damage while applying 1 layer of Starfall Mark, can supplement mark stacks and maintain damage rhythm.

Mark Burst Build

Playstyle

Mid-speed accumulation, builds high damage amp through scaling marks, executes with Sneak Attack burst, Plagiarize ensures Energy cycle

Why this set works

Extreme Mark Burst Build. Uses Supernova Gift and Law of Contradiction as core to rapidly stack high Starfall Marks, leveraging mark damage amplification with Ambush's 3x power for finishing. Plagiarize provides energy sustain for skill cycling. This build relies on mark accumulation, suitable for mid-speed matchups.

Supernova Gift

Why pick this skill

Core Mark stacking skill. 0 Energy to initiate, and grants +1 stack per use. Possesses growth potential, allowing rapid stacking to high mark counts in the late game.

Antinomy

Why pick this skill

Mark-linked burst skill: applies 3 marks and doubles mark layers when countering defense, combined with Supernova Gift's growth potential to quickly generate high mark burst.

Sneak Attack

Why pick this skill

Counter burst skill, 3x power can harvest at critical moments, or combined with high mark damage boost for fatal blow

Skill Theft

Why pick this skill

Combines sustain and damage output, 30 energy cost deals physical damage and restores 1 energy, alleviating energy pressure from high-cost skills (Antinomy/Sneak Attack).

Notes
  • Buguake is a Phantom-type Physical attacker with stat distribution favoring Physical Attack and Speed. Its trait "Measured Pace" provides bonuses to either both offenses or both defenses based on timing. Its skill pool centers on the Meteor Mark system, featuring mark stacking, mark synergy, and counter mechanisms.
  • Starfall Mark effect: When the enemy carries Starfall Marks, damage taken increases (specific value not provided, but skill descriptions indicate a damage amplification mechanic).
  • Skill pool has obvious flaws: typeless skills (Particle Collision, Learning by Watching, Spatial Pressure, Sneak Attack, Binary Star, Pursuit of Victory) lack same-type bonus; Wishing Star is magic attack skill mismatched with base stats; core output relies on physical attack but high power skills have high energy cost.
  • Pursuit of Victory has a scaling combo mechanic, suitable as late-game core damage; Sneak Attack has 3x power in counter state, with burst potential; Law of Contradiction and Mind Insight are core for mark stacking, but Mind Insight relies on existing enemy mark stacks and has slow startup.
  • Comprehensive assessment: This creature has shallow skill pool, mainly built around Starfall Mark system, recommend 1-2 viable builds
