Build Guide

Solid and durable all-rounder build. I managed to get GR lv 110 for now. I use diamonds in equipment to increase resistance to the elements and CDR. However, if you prefer, you can use rubies in torso and legs. In the weapon it is imperative to use a topaz to increase the damage from thorns
