PhantomWinter's BiteRage Regen

Akira not only looks great, but she has the damage to back it up. Although weak against single targets, she has solid AoE damage. Since her phantom summon is placeable anywhere and provides its own slows and continuous damage, she has a ton more utility than you might think.

Builds

Before GR-19

Attack, speed and some Crit Chance should be enough to progress past this stage.

GR-19 - GR-21

The goal here is to obtain over 90% Crit Chance whilst maintaining high speed and attack.

Warlord
Soulbound Arcana
Main Stats: atk / atk / atk
Priority: crit_rate > spd > crit_dmg > atk_flat

After GR-21

Cataclysm should be used if comparable to your Soulbound Arcanca. HP% is desired as survival can become difficult.
