Sister Blades Best Boons

Close Damage and Speed Boons

Aphrodite Heart Sigil	Hermes Wing Sigil	Demeter Frost Sigil

Aphrodite Boons for Close Damage Buffs

Sister Blades's range is extremely short, so its attacks benefit from Aphrodite's close range damage Boons.

Even Sister Blades' dash attacks and Omega Attack moves you near enemies, so it should all benefit from the close range damage buffs.

Aphrodite Boons and Gameplay Tips

Hermes Boons for Speed

Hermes Boons give buffs for movement speed and attack speed, making it pair well with Sister Blades' playstyle.

The Attack Speed buffs from Hermes Boons allow you to land more attacks before having to worry about dodging, and the Movement Speed buffs allow you to reposition easily, on top of the boon that slows enemy projectiles.

Demeter Boons for Chill

Demeter's Boons augment your Attack and Special with Chill, which slows enemies, allowing you to land more attacks against enemies, and their attack wind-up becomes easier to see.

Aside from the Chill buffs, rolling Rare Crop once you have your attack boon is extremely powerful, since you will effectively scale as long as you reach lower floors.

Best Hammer Upgrades for Sister Blades

Final Slice

Final Slice gives Sister Blades' last attack a +400% damage boost, and an AoE effect, making it great against groups of enemies.

One of Sister Blades' weaknesses is its single-target combos, but Final Slice augments this and makes it easier to deal with large groups of enemies without having to constantly worry about dodging, since you will be able to stagger enemies.

Skulking Slice

Skulking Slice gives your Attacks +200% damage boost when attacking enemies from behind.

This buff is great especially against Bosses and Guardians, since they have long wind-ups for their attacks. As long as you can dash-strike or Omega Attack and reposition behind enemies, you basically deal double damage throughout the encounter.

Explosive Ambush

Explosive Ambush buffs your Omega Attack, giving it an AoE effect and +400% damage at the cost of additional 20 Magick.

Explosive Ambush functions similarly to Final Slice, but for your Omega Attack instead. Explosive Ambush works extremely well against Bosses, especially when paired with The Sorceress Arcana.
