How to Get Shaman Crest
Found at Moss Grotto
The Shaman Crest can be obtained in the Ruined Chapel after meeting the Shaman. This requires Silk Soar, as it’s the only way to reach the hidden area beyond the Shamans.

| ・Very long range attacks to keep itself safe

・Can only equip blue tools. ・Is only available much later in the game. |

Shaman Crest's playstyle focuses on dealing most of its damage via Silk Skills while also being able to attack safely with its long-range attacks. The playstyle is simple yet powerful; build up your Silk and just unleash all your Silk Skills towards your enemies!
For tools, get Spool Extender for more skill usage and Volt Filament to buff your Silk skills with electric charge. Weavelight can help with the initial Silk Regeneration, and Egg of Flealia can help decrease the usage of Silk when spamming skills at full HP.
The cons for this Crest is that you only get this during Act 3, which is essentially the endgame. It also doesn't fair well during exploration as it doesn't have yellow tools outside of the Vestricrest. Not to mention the lack of Red tools it has.

Anonymous 2 monthsSomething that this guide doesn't say is the bind is different. Instead of the normal one, it launches you to the ground and then heals.
