Lost Ark Deathblalde Remaining Energy Build Guide: Stats, Relic Set, Gems, Awakening Skills & More

Stats

The primary stat is specialization. With specialization, you will do more damage with your w surge, it will also help you recover your death orbs which is your passive. You will have more cool down reduction when you press your w and the awakening skill is doing way more damage. High specialization is required for death blade if you have 1400, it will be a good start. The secondary stat is critical, we definitely need crit unlike shadow hunters, the death blade don't have an engraving which can boost the critical. This is why 15% extra crit is really appreciated, with extra crit you will have more overall damage and we need that.

Specialization

• Surge skill damage + 169.04%

• Blade art meter recovery through attacks +84.52%

• Skill cooldown reduction by blade art +42.26%

• Awakening skill damage +80.71%

Rotation

The goal here is to have 3 death orbs on your passive. Every time you have 3, you can use your w and then use it again for massive damage and the engraving effect will proc for 30 seconds. So it is better to get three death orbs very fast, this is why specialization is important. But also you have a skill you absolutely need to know, this skill is maelstrom, this skill put in effect for six seconds. So while the entire duration of the skill you have this effect, you need to do maelstrom before any big damage skills simply because the tripod on it, orb control is insane. With this tripod, you will have more death orbs when you hit an enemy with a skill and this effect stays 6 second because it is the duration of the maelstrom skill. 

Also every time you press your w, you have cool down reduction on your skills immediately, this cool down reduction depends on your specialization but also on your active death orbs. If you have one death orb and you press your w, you will have 10% cool down reduction, two death orbs is 30% and three death orbs is 50%. It is very important to press your w when you reach your three fully death orbs, so you can have 50% cool down directly. In addition, you have also cool down reduction with your specialization. So 42% cool down reduction, this is why the class is so fun to play, you have constant dps and always a button to push on your keyboard. This is also why even as some of your skills have long cooled down. When you press your w at three full death orbs, you gain 45% mp recovery, with that, you are never low mana and you can keep up the constant dps.

Tripods 

• Spin cutter: Open weakness is a good choice here, it increased the damage taken by enemies and it also increased party damage for 10 seconds also front and backs attacks damage by 9%. Quick preparation is next, this tripod is very good, you have very low cooldown already on the spell. But with quick preparation, you have only seven seconds cool down. You can also take triple spin if you have enough skill points. With this tripod, you have three spin instead of two.

• Blitz rush: Vital point hit for more crit rate, charge enhancement which increased the outgoing damage per charge level. For the last one, shadow rush which increased the skill damage.

• Void strike: We absolutely need or control, this tripod is mandatory. With it, you will have way more death orbs gain when you hit an enemy with a skill and 75% death orbs gain is huge. Fist of darkness is next, it increased the outgoing damage for the last tripod dark explosion. This tripod also increased the damage by a lot and it also proc an explosion doing after damage.

• Maelstrom: We need orb control for more death orbs generation very important on this skill dark order this tripod is very good it increased the attack speed for you and all the party members within 24 meters for 6 seconds. For the last one, overwhelm which increased the damage of the skill useful for chaos too because it paralyzed normal enemies with the continuous damage.

• Dark axle: Swift fingers for faster animation cast tenacity which will give you immunity when you are doing the skill and high axel absolutely insane tripod, it increased the move distance by 4 meters but also with this tripod you can jump over a boss and this is very useful because most of your skills are back attacks.

• Earth cleaver: This is your counter attack, the first tripod is push which is a 4 meters dash doing more damage. Weak point detection for more damage on elites and boss enemies. If you have enough skill points, you can go with earth explosion for more overall damage.

• Moonlight sonic: Fist of darkness for more damage sustained enhancement which will give you more damage per charge level. And shade sonic which dramatically increase the damage of the skill.

• Soul absorber: Swift fingers is a good choice, it increased the charge speed. Fist of darkness for more damage and have with this tripod you can make a second dash in the direction you want and it knocked down enemies away also it increased the damage.

Awakening Skills 

There are two awakening skills like all class. Death blades are almost all time in the back of the boss because we need to hit on back attacks. The advantage with flash blink is that you can place yourself directly on the back of the boss with it. Also take in consideration that when you use an awakening skill you will have almost three death words for free. Make sure to use maelstrom before using your v, you will have more death words at the end. For the difference between not using maelstrom before v and using it, we gain extra death orbs which is not bad, for the other v blade assault, it has similar damage but is harder to put it on a boss and you should not use it. The other awakening flash blink is more convenient to deathblade playstyle.

Gems

For the gems, you need every main damage skill as a dps gem and cool down reduction gem. So you need both cool down reduction and damage for soul absorber, moonlight sonic, void strike, blitz rush and very important surge which is a gem for your w, not all class have a gem for w but dead blade is one of them. Also, you absolutely need the cool down gem on maelstrom. For the last gem, you can choose between the cool down reduction or the damage on earth cleaver which is your counter.

Runes

You need at least two wealth, this rune will help you to reach three death orbs very fast. Put wealth on void strike because he has a tripod which increase our death orbs gain and also on soul absorber. You can put focus in maelstrom for minus 40 mana point consumption. Maelstrom is 592 mana points to use. So with this rune, you can reduce that number. We have too overwhelmed for boss fight guardians and legion raids bleed on spin cutter because this skill has short cool down, so you can refresh the bleed every time. Also have two gale wind for that skill casting speed which is very good for death blade.

Engravings For Re Deathblade

• Grudge

• Super Charge

• Ambush Master

• Remaining Energy

• Adrenaline 

For the engravings, you need your remaining energy. You can also put supercharge which is engraving very good for deathblade because it will speed up the animation cast of your spells and we have a lot of spells with cast time. Ambush master is a good choice for engraving, death blade skills are for the most back attacks. So this engraving is really for her. If you don't want to play ambush master, you can play cursed all but honestly the difference is almost nothing, so don't bother with that and don't put yourself into trouble because playing grudge and cursed all it's hard sometimes. For the last engraving, you can go grudge for that sweet dps increase.

Card Sets 

Card sets are always the same on most of the dps. First set is lost wind cliff which will give you 7% crit at awakening 12. This set is the one for early game. However, you still need awakening 12 on it and the other set is salvation. This set is really late game because it is with only legendary cards and if you want the full potential of it, you need awakening 30. This set changed damage type to holy damage and it is giving you 15% more overall damage, insane set but late game. So unless you have it at awakening 12 or 18, it's not worth to put it before, go with lost wind cliff, 7% crit is not bad.

Skill Points 

If you have 360 skill points, you need every big damage skills at the maximum level. So blitz rush, void strike, dark axle, moonlight sonic, soul absorber, when you are at max level, you can put earth cleaver level 7, so you have access to the tripod. You can also put spin cutter at level 10, you will have more mobility with the last tripod all depend on how many skill point you have.

Pet Bonus

You absolutely need to change your pet bonus. Normally, your pet bonus will be on 10 crit bonus effect, but this is 10% of actual crit stat. So it is 10 of 460 which is only 46 for the specialization, it's the same but you have way more specialization than crit. It is 10% of 1477, so in this case it's 147, 147 specialization is better than 2% more crit, this is why you need to change your pet bonus.

Wich Relic Set 

There is one set very strong for death blades, the earth's entropy. This two pieces set gives 17% crit damage, but for back attacks this and up by 55% crit damage. The four set piece gives you 17% more crit rate which is perfect because you lose the argos set buff crit and you gain another one and the six pieces give you 21% more damages on enemies with back attacks. This set is really insane for back attack class. When you have all the set, you can expect a good dps increase.
