Inventory and Artifacts

Evasion, attack speed and useful support weapons

Stat prioritiesUse thisEvasion and attack speed

Evasion improves the extra-shot chance. Attack speed helps sustain ranged pressure.

Optional variantAlternativeAdditional Staff weapons

The four-Staff setup is a video variant, not a condition in the weapon effect. Keep only Staffs that improve the active build.

Unspecified slotNot specifiedFinal Artifact layout

No fixed final positions or upgrade levels are provided. Adapt the remaining space to the run.

Core route

Take Quarterstaff into Javelin, then Formless Dance. Keep enemies at range while Normal Attacks supply repeated shots.

Why Evasion matters

Formless Dance can fire twice, with the chance increasing with Evasion. Extra Staffs are optional support; four Staffs are not required to activate the weapon.

Talent priorities

Our recommended 50-point split is 20 Willpower, 20 Swiftness and 10 Ingenuity. Willpower supports the opening, Swiftness supports weapon attacks, and Ingenuity adds Evasion and a reward choice.

Build order

Secure the weapon branch before reserving space for extra Staffs. Add Evasion and attack speed while keeping enough defense and movement to hold a firing lane.

When to pivot

If Formless Dance does not appear, keep the strongest elemental Staff or manual Grimoire setup available. Do not fill the bag with weak Staffs solely to copy a four-weapon inventory.
