Build Results

Main Settings

Toggle Armor Rank
Toggle this setting if you want the search results to show either only Low Rank Armor or only High Rank Armor.
Exclude Setting
In the Exclude setting, choose which Armors, Decorations, or Talismans to remove from the search results.
Skill Select
In the Skill Select Menu, choose which skills you'd like to find equipment for in the search results.
Set Bonus / Group Skill Select
Along with individual skills, you can also search for Set Bonus skills and Group Skills to find equipment for in the search results.
Search Button
After selecting all the skills and toggling the desired settings, click on the Search Button. If you make any changes to your selections or settings, remember to click the Search Button again to refresh the search results.
Clear Settings Button
Click the Clear Settings Button if you'd like to remove all selected skills and settings at the same time. This also clears the search results.
No Results Found
Getting the screen that says "No sets matching the requirements were found" means there was no build that had all your selected skills. Arriving to this screen means you need to change up your selections until you get a search result.
▲ Return to Top ▲

Skills Menu Settings and Features

Search by Skill Name
You may also search the skill yourself in the search bar.
Hover Cursor to Check Skill Description
Scrolling down the menu, you can browse skills by category. Hovering your cursor on the icon beside the skill gives you the skill description.
Adjust Skill Level
Once you've selected the skills you want builds for, you can adjust the minimum skill level for them. By default, it will show their max skill level.
Add Another Skill
When you see a text box that says "There's room for more!", it means you can add more skills and further narrow down the search results.
▲ Return to Top ▲

Set Bonus and Group Skill Menus Settings and Features

Toggle Between Set Bonus or Group Skills Menus
At the top of this screen, you can toggle between showing the available Set Bonus skills or Group Skills. While it's possible to select multiple skills on both menus, remember that you may not get any builds for them in the search results.
Search by Skill Name
On both menus, you can also opt to search the skill in the search bar instead of scrolling through the list.
Hover Cursor to Check Skill Description
To check the description of the skill, you can hover your cursor over the icon beside the set name.
Select Set Bonus Skill Level
For skills in the Set Bonus menu, you can only choose one level per set.
▲ Return to Top ▲

Exclude Menus Settings

Exclude Settings
In the Exclude Settings, you can choose whichever Armor, Decoration, or Talisman that will not show up in the search results. This is helpful when you're making a build with equipment that's only available to you at the moment.
Search by Name
In all three Exclude menus, you can look for the Armor, Decoration, or Talisman you want to exclude via the search bar.
Show Selected Only
In all three Exclude menus, you can also toggle to only show the options you've selected. This is handy for when you just want to narrow down your previous selections.
Reset Button
You can also unselect all the options you've wanted to exclude by pressing the Reset Button. This option is also present for all three Exclude menus.
Select All in an Armor Set
In the Exclude Armor menu, there's the option to exclude a whole armor set. You can do this instead of selecting every individual armor piece in a set.
▲ Return to Top ▲

those are weapon skills, not armor skills. so there wouldnt be a point to add skills you cant get via armor/armor decos
