The Night Wings Dual Blades takes our generally best raw dual blade builds. While there are more other options like the Tigrex Rex Slicers that can be build with some affinity to offset its negative affinity or the Raging Claws that grants 100% chance to critically strike when in Demon Mode, Night Wing is the more accessible and easier Dual Blades to build around with.

Attack Boost III
Blast Boost II (Best Choice) Magnamalo Soul |
For our blast build, the Sinister Famineblades is the best Dual Blade choice due to the fact that there aren't any other choices to begin with. For Rampage Skills, Blast Boost is the way to go as our build doesn't make use of the Hellfire Cloak skill from the Magnamalo armor set.

On paper, Fortis Gran might seem like a superior dragon weapon but Ro Waga's rampage skill choices and extra slot makes it a way better dragon elemental DB than Fortis Gran. For Rampage skills, Dragon Exploit or Dragon Boost would both work and for slots, slotting in one more Dragon Jewel is the best choice.

We opted for Mud Twister instead of Jyura Pulverizers because of the negative affinity that Jyura Pulverizer has and the Mud Twister's high water element. For slots, it works best with 1 Expert Jewel 2 and one Stream Jewel and for Rampage skills, Element Exploit is the way to go.

A raw dual blade build featuring the Night Wing Dual Blades from the Nargacuga Tree. Despite having lower base damage than some Dual Blades, we chose the Night Wing due to its insane affinity rate of 40% as well as its white Sharpness. Due to its thin White Sharpness level, we focused our build on the Protective Polish and Speed Sharpening skills to always maintain the damage bonus obtained from it.
The build also features a level 7 attack boost, Lv. 3 Weakness Exploit, and Lv. 2 Critical Boosts for more damage.

A comfort build that makes use of several stamina skills and evasion skills to massively increase your mobility during fights. All your damage comes from the blast damage you get from Sinister Faminblades plus Blast Attack up and is a very safe build to play on higher ranked quests. Dodge all those attacks and keep on applying the blast ailment!

There's extremely minimal changes in our Endgame elemental build. We'll be swapping out the Aelucanth Helm for a Zinogre Helm. This is to get the last point of Weakness Exploit for 50% affinity against weak spots. We'll still have 3 Critical Element by slotting a critical element deco on the Remobra Gloves and with Latent Power and level 6/7 (depending on weapon) critical eye, we'll be able to reach 90/100% affinity which opens up new weapons for us with negative affinities.

With 6★ to 7★ quests, you'll finally be able to get some decent elemental damage. Below are the best elemental DBs you can use for the high rank stages of the Hub Quests. For the Dual Blades in this rank, we'll be prioritizing elemental dual blades with affinity stats in them as we only have 50% affinity when hitting enemy weakspots. Without using weapons with affinity, our DPS will greatly drop so we have to focus on being able to use Critical Element first rather than focusing on raw damage potential.

A glass build that focuses on maximizing Critical Eye to get max value from Critical Element 3. With this set, we get a 70% affinity when striking enemy weakspots which will also trigger the critical element bonus damage. Kamura Braces S can be swapped out with Alloy Braces S to get more defense stat and be able to replace Heroics with Water Attack 1.
For the skills, Heroics and Dragon Attack are just extras obtained from stray skills in some armour but from these skills, Constitution is the most useful one as it can save some stamina for some extra dodges during fights.

Stealth Dango have a solid 190 raw damage build which is way superior than the other DBs you can craft at this point in the game. It also has a sleep attribute which works great together with the Blastslash dango to improve your Large Barrel Bombs to Mega Barrel Bombs for some burst damage.
Blastslash Dango Effects and How to Unlock
The best part of the Stealth Dango II Dual Blades is its ease of crafting which only requires a Slagtoth Hide+, a Coma Sac, and an Excite Shroom which are all really easy to get and it can be crafted as soon as you reach HR 4. remember to use Dulling Strike rampage skill too to maximize its green sharpness bonus damage.

This set is catered to those who prefer to go all out on damage. Latent Power reduces stamina depletion by 30% when activated and is a great solution to the Dual Blades' stamina-hungry playstyle. However, it's not a buff that is permanently active so always watch when Latent Power triggers to maximize the build's effect.

This armor combination offers a balance between affinity and utlity. Constitution reduces the stamina depletion of actions with fixed stamina costs (such as Evading and Blocking) by 20% at level two.

Fire, Water, Thunder, Ice, Dragon Attack Boost. ★★★ |
Elemental skills are vital to the DB. They can maximize the damage dealt by elemental skills so increasing the elemental damage of your weapons is a must. |
Critical Element ★★★ |
Amplifying elemental damage is the next step to increasing your damage output as an elemental DB player. Critical Element is similar to Critical Boost for elemental attacks and having it is near critical especially for the end game if playing elemental DB |
Critical Eye ★★★ |
More damage and Critical Element is also reliant on affinity so make sure to raise your affinity when playing DB. |
Weakness Exploit ★★★ |
50% affinity when striking enemy weak spots at max rank is extremely valuable for a weapon that likes to deal damage. |
Blast Attack (for blast builds) ★★★ |
Having Blast Attack greatly amps up the damage of blast type dual blades. It's a great skill to have if you don't wish to play elemental dual blades. |
Evade Window ★★★ |
Allows you to dodge enemy attacks more easily. At the hands of an expert, a dual blade user with Evade Window is nearly untouchable and it opens up new ways to approach enemy attacks. |
Attack Boost ★★ |
Attack Boost is a lesser priority as most of the Dual Blade's damage comes from elemental attacks. It's a great skill but make sure to increase your affinity first and get the necessary damage skills. |
Marathon Runner ★★ |
Longer demon mode duration is always great. |
Stamina Surge ★★ |
Quickly replenish your stamina after using Demon Mode. |
Constitution ★★ |
A great skill to have as it allows you to dodge even while in Demon Mode with ease. |
Protective Polish ★★ |
A neat skill to have for Dual Blades as the Dual Blade's sharpness rapidly decreases due to its fast attacking nature. |
Razor Sharp ★★ |
Same reason as Protective Polish but it doesn't need a whetstone to use in exchange of half effectivity. |
Flinch Free ★ |
A must have skill for multiplayer. It's placed lower as a needed skill since the Dual Blades' attacks doesn't get interrupted once used. |
Critical Boost ★ |
Raw damage isn't the strongest point of the Dual Blades so putting Critical boost on DB isn't as effective as the other weapons. |
Evade Extender ★ |
Longer dashes means you can get out of harms way more easily or reach enemy weakspots. |

The elem in Rise seems really weak. Been running a set more focused on Crit Eye/Crit Boost/ & Wex then supplementing evade/constitution boosts via decs and talismans. Really lets you get the most out of the Night Wing blades instead of going for a blast build
