About this build

The widely agreed support-damage Chanter: Dark Crush, Onslaught, Spinning Strike and Recuperation go to effective 20, and Undefeated Mantra and Power of the Storm are the fixed party stigmas. Attack Preparation, Wind's Promise and Impact Hit are the passives that matter. The 4th stigma is Impeding Authority, the party shield level-45 parties used on bosses.

Endgame gear at level 45

Endgame gear at level 45

The highest item level each slot reaches at level 45. Crafted pieces exist for both factions (Elyos · Asmodians) with the same stats.

The best Item Level each slot can reach at the level cap. Weapons, armor and jewelry are the Item Level 102 pieces with five soul lines, made by Transfer crafting from their Item Level 94 versions, so craft those first. Bracelets come from the Sanctuary or Substance Morph (Item Level 86). The belt and the amulet come from Substance Morph (Item Level 65); the amulet differs between PvE and PvP. Runes come from quests and chests (Item Level 40).

Medium confidenceRead from the client's items: the highest item level a player can obtain for each slot at level 45.

Assumed: every Regional quest and Seal dungeon of your faction done once by level 45, at its recommended level (Asmodian Seals on the speedrun route at that route's level, never earlier). Levels alone give 136.

The goal is every node. Leveling pays for part of it, so the order decides what comes first: the nodes that raise your core skills, then these keystones.

  1. Cooldown Reduction
  2. Combat Speed
  3. Damage Boost
  4. Damage Tolerance
  5. Critical Damage Boost
  6. Multi-hit Chance

Our suggestion, read from the client's stat descriptions: no player data covers level-45 keystones yet.

Skill points take a skill to Lv 10 at most: one Specialty slot with options 1 to 3. Lv 12, 16 and 20 (options 4 and 5, the second and third slot) need bonus skill levels from Daevanion, gear and Arcana.

Good to know

Good to know

The 4th stigma is disputed: Impeding Authority (the level-45 boss pick), Guardian Blessing (2-minute cooldown) or Marchutan's Wrath. Impactful Crush has no chained follow-up in the EU client (its option 4 is +30% skill speed).

Mastery levels above 10 and stigma levels above 20 come only from bonus skill levels on gear and progression boards: a later goal.
